Gentlemen : — The sales for the month amounted to $14,188.- 

 08, which is $2223.26 more than the sales for the previous 

 month. 



A larger number of shipments of beef were received during 

 the month than have been received for some time and a good 

 portion of it was from small shippers on Molokai, Hawaii, and 

 Oahu. 



The few shipments of small white beans received from Maui 

 are not selling very fast, as they are not as clean as the beans 

 which are imported. The Maui demonstrator has been instruct- 

 ed to try to get the farmers who have been planting small white 

 beans to plant the Maui Red, or the Calico beans, which are 

 better sellers and easier handled than the small white, with the 

 crude equipment found on most of the small farms on Maui. 



Island Irish potatoes are more plentiful than they have been 

 for some time. The island potatoes are smaller than the im- 

 ported potatoes, but they are in better condition, and are selling 

 for $2.50 per hundred. The Division is receiving large ship- 

 ments of sweet potatoes which are being readily sold for very 

 good prices.
