Cane, Found by Road, Wins Hawaiian Prize KAIU'LI'I, Island of Maui. T. H., (AP) A stray piece of sugar cane, picked up on the highway by a homesteader and planted by him In order that his children might have something on which to nibble, mav lead to the solution of one of (lie most difficult problems facing tho sugar men of llawil, according to agricul tural experts at the Maul county fair. Tho cane, of the variety known as H-lUfi, was exhibited by Manuel I lego and won a first prize. It was consider ed the most remarkable exhibit at (lie fai. X year ago Rego picked up two pieces of the can on tho road while driving to his mountain -side home. He mujh not a cane grower and did not know that the Jl-loy variety had been evolved by chemists to grow only in tho lowlands and that It wasi Mippuscd to demand an exceptionally large amount of water. Mis I'm in is at un elevation of 3,000 feet in a dis trict that receives an annual rain-fall of only between 40 and 50 Inches, mostly In the winter months, with the summers decidedly arid. ( lie planted the cane and paid no attention tj it. In 11 months It had grown Into the two most remarkable stools tlmt drew a special prize at the fab'. . t Sugar experts pointed out thut any cane that will thrive so vigorously, at an elevation, of 3.00V reel, without particular attention, without fertiliza tion and without irrigation in a dry district, possesses tremendous com mercial possibilities, and that it may be the cane that planters have spent large amounts of money to evolve. . The impression made by the acci dental cano was so great that the ex hibit has been removed to the Kal- lanianaole settlement ot the .Hnwilan j'lonies commlsnion on the Island of lMoloknl by Thornton Lyman, super- Mntendcnt of the experimenting farm, for further experiment. .- Head tho Observer Want Ads.
