stantial addition to Surplus Account, after heav\' depreciation charges on the factory and 

 cane fields. 



The property in every respect has been well maintained. 



The area under cultivation is being steadily increased in order to provide surplus tonnage 

 of cane during normal years, and so insm'e against shortage of cane, and the disproportionate 

 loss resulting therefrom, in seasons such as last. 



The rainfall on the estate since June 30, 1915, has been considerably greater than for the 

 same period of last j'ear. With a continuance of favorable weather a good tonnage is assiu'ed. 

 Conditions affecting the sugar market are complicated and uncertain, but an average price 

 which will be fairly profitable is the general expectation.
