Excerpt from Annual Report of the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station for 1906 Considerable work has been done in bringing more of the station land under cultivation in anticipation of the new water system pro vided for by Congress. About 10 acres of the lower portion of the station tract were cleared, fenced, plowed, and prepared for planting. AS the station does not expect to plant all this at present, half the tract was cleared by the Territorial department of public works for the privilege of growing forage plants for a few seasons. In this way the station was relieved of the expense of removing a dense growth of lantana and guavas. The trial grounds of the station were completely fenced and a new slat greenhouse was constructed for the use of the horticulturist. A new stable was erected and a consider able amount of water pipe laid. An additional area, amounting to about 2 acres, on the higher portion of the station grounds was cleared and terraced by Japanese tenants at no expense to the station. The office and laboratory equipments were increased and numerous addi tions made to the station library by purchase, exchange, etc., so that now the station possesses the best collection of reference books on economic agriculture in Hawaii.

Excerpt from Report of the Hawaii Agricultural Experiment Station, 1919 It has been the policy of the station to undertake work in coopera tion with individuals, institutions, and organizations, both public and private, wherever the work in question promised to be of mutual advantage. It was felt that by giving careful attention to the formulation and execution of plans, many projects could be as effectively carried out through the cooperation of such an agency as though the station unaided had undertaken the entire work. Such cooperation would make it possible to provide for many more projects than can be cared for when the entire cost of the work is borne by the station alone.
