Veiw of Central Hershey Sugar Mill from the Distance Hawaii Hawaii has the largest sugar cane har- vest in eight years, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. Sugar cane was cut from 124,000 acres in the sugar year ended September 30, 1922, or nearly 7,000 acres more than the eight- year average. Production of 1,184,000,000 pounds of cane sugar during the year ended Septem- ber 30, 1922, is indicated in reports from Hawaiian sugar mills. This is 13 per cent more than in 1921, and a larger production than the average for ten years past. Nearly all the sugar produced in Hawaii is shipped to continental United States. The total area of sugar cane in Hawaii in 1922 was 229,000 acres, or 16,000 acres less than the average for the eight years. Inasmuch as Hawaiian sugar cane usually is not harvested until it makes more than a year's growth, the total area is about double the harvested acreage in an average year, it is pointed out. The average for the eight-year period is nearly 208 per cent of the harvested area, but in the year ended September 30, 1922, the total acreage was only 185 per cent of the harvested area that year.
