OTHER RESERVES ON HAWAII 
On August 16 the point at which the Volcano Highway enters the 
Panaewa Forest Reserve was marked with cloth notices and with a 
painted sign bearing the name of the reserve. 
On the same day three corners of the Keauohana Forest Reserve were 
permanently marked with pipes, the boundary along the Kalapana road 
was marked with cloth notices, and a painted sign bearing the name 
of the reserve was placed at the Kehena road junction. 
One day was spent with the Assistant Territorial Surveyor upon the 
Waiakea Forest Reserve boundary relocation. 
HILO FOREST RESERVE WORKING PLAN 
Most of the month, after my return from Hilo, was spent on the com- 
pilation of boundary data to be included in the comprehensive working 
plan of the Hilo Forest Reserve. This table shows, for the entire 
boundary, the lands within the Reserve, ownership and use of all land 
adjacent to the Reserve, the length of boundary not requiring fence, 
length of fence existing and the length of boundary still requiring 
fence. 
PUU KAALA TRIP 
On August 30 I accompanied a party of scientists on a trip to Puu 
Kaala in the Waianae Range, Oahu. Besides the guest of honor. Dr. 
Carl Skottsberg of the Gothenberg Botanical Garden, Sweden, the party 
included Mr. Albert Judd of the Bishop Museum, Dr. Lyon, Mr. Caum 
and Mr. McEldowney of the H. S. P. A. Experiment Station, Mr. Grif- 
fin, horticulturist, and the Superintendent of Forestry. Numerous 
specimens were gathered for Dr. Skottsberg 's collection and an un- 
described fern was found by himself and Dr. Lyon. 
Ascent was made from the north side where the native forest, above 
2800 feet elevation, was found to be in excellent condition and entirely 
free from Hilo Grass or other objectionable introduced plants. Among 
the notable features of the flora were an area of five or six acres on a 
steep slope near the summit densely overgrown with giant leaves of the 
ape-ape plant, and a complete forest cover in the shallow summit crater 
composed largely of olapa and ohia lehua trees, The trunks of the trees 
at the summit, the branches of all the shrubs and lesser growth, and 
the very ground itself were heavily shrouded in a luxuriant growth of 
dripping moss, saturated by the almost incessant fog and rain. 
Respectfully submitted, 
C. J. KRAEBEL, 
Assistant Superintendent of Forestry.
