islands  independent  of  other  sources  of  supply.  The  specimens 
of  bales  of  rice-hay  and  rice-straw  are  alluded  to — the  former 
especially  being  of  such  quality  as  to  encourage  the  hope  that 
it  will  eventually  command  much  of  the  local  demand. 
A house  constructed  of  beeswax  together  with  an  observa- 
tion hive  in  operation,  and  specimens  of  bee  products  repre- 
sented  the  local  honey  industry. 
BUREAU  OF  FORESTRY  EXHIBIT. 
The  Bureau  of  Agriculture  and  Forestry  was  well  represented 
by  a display  from  each  of  its  Divisions.  Of  these  the  one  at' 
tracting  especial  attention  was  the  entomological  exhibit.  It 
is  satisfactory  to  note  from  year  to  year  the  increasing  interest 
which  is  being  given  to  this  phase  of  economic  agriculture — a 
result  no  doubt  due  not  only  to  the  vital  part  which  insect 
problems  play  in  our  local  industries,  but  in  particular  to  the 
judicious  policy  of  education  which  is  carried  out  by  the  Divi- 
sion. 
The  collection  shown  by  the  Division  of  Forestry  well  dis- 
played the  progress  of  conservation  throughout  the  islands  and 
epitomized  the  multifarious  work  which  falls  to  the  lot  of  this 
division. 
LECTURES. 
An  agreeable  innovation  was  made  by  the  lectures  of  Pro- 
fessor B.  E.  Porter,  of  the  College  of  Hawaii,  on  Thursday  and 
Friday  evenings.  These  included  the  selection  and  care  of  Poul- 
try and  were  illustrated  by  lantern  slides.
