Tobacco Investigations. Object: To determine the possibility of growing cigar leaf tobaccos in Hawaii. The experiment has been under way three years. In 1906 four acres of tobacco were planted on Lot 17, Paauilo Homesteads, which was reserved from sale for the use of the Experiment Station by the Commissioner of Public Lands. A large modern curing barn with stringing and fermenting rooms has been con structed. The cr0p when harvested and cured will be sold in order to determine the market value of the product. The cost of this experiment is being borne out of the appropriation made by the Territorial Legislature for assistance to the Hawaii Ex periment Station. And by contribution from private sources. The 1904 cr0p was small and was distributed among tobacco mer chants in sample lots; none of this cr0p was sold. A portion ofthe 1905 cr0p was sold to a Seattle cigar manufacturer, made up into cigars and then sent back to Hawaii. Preliminary estimates of the value of the 1906 crop are that there will be pounds of wrapper leaf of high qualitv. The product of both Cuban and Sumatra types is of fine quality, superior in texture, burning quali ties and aroma, to most of the mainland tobacco and comparable with that of the countries from which the seed was obtained. The Station will discontinue the demonstration whenever private enterprise takes up the cultivation of tobacco. Project No. 3, Rubber Investigations. Object: To determine the influence which cultivation and the use of fertilizers may have on the yield and quality of commercial rubber. Cooperative experiments have been planned in connection with one of the Nahiku rubber companies; also with the Territorial Board of Agriculture and Forestry in an investigation of the two old groves of Ceara rubber recently discovered on the island of Kauai. Pot experiments are being carried on at the Station to determine the influence of fertilizers on the growth of rubber trees, by the transpiration method. A beginning has also been made toward a collection of species of rubber yielding plants on the Station reservation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station, 1919 It has been the policy of the station to undertake work in coopera tion with individuals, institutions, and organizations, both public and private, wherever the work in question promised to be of mutual advantage. It was felt that by giving careful attention to the formulation and execution of plans, many projects could be as effectively carried out through the cooperation of such an agency as though the station unaided had undertaken the entire work. Such cooperation would make it possible to provide for many more projects than can be cared for when the entire cost of the work is borne by the station alone.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station, 1934 Continued work on factors affecting the ratio of the moisture equivalents of soils to their permanent wilting percentages indicated that the numerical value of this conventional ratio is, except in rare cases, independent Of the textural classification. N 0 significant differences in the ratios were found when Hawaiian soils were diluted with as much as 90 percent coarse silica sand. In Still further dilu tion it is probable that the ratios would increase. The large probable errors involved with each of the determinations When large amounts of sand were used, however, made the results unreliable.
