Sunday, March 23, 1941 Clear [Headlines: Honolulu Advertiser; World news] In the water this morning. At noon Lee got us and we three went with Mr & Mrs Ernest C Webster to their daughter & son in law's place At Kawaihapa.(Bowman) WE had dinner there. Bill was sick so did not gol It is a most picturesque [Drawing:Map;Kawaihae] spot; the sea on one side and immediately behind the cabin are the mountains. The Websters are delightful They like Lee. The two main crops are sugar and pineapples. The sugar cane takes 18 months to mature and pineapples 15 months. the land is leased by large ranches and in case of sugar have 1500 - 3000 employees. Stubenberg is a dealer here handling I.H.C. He rebuilds implements to fit conditions here. [Letterhead: from prev. page] A farmall is spread out to 20ft tread with 5 foot wheels. However demand is too small for making the business attractive for a manufacturer Caterpillar sell most of the tractors.
