Entomology helps Hawaii sugar fields through parasites
In Honolulu reports from Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association detail entomologists using parasites to control pests threatening sugar cane. The program highlights complete control of the leafhopper and progress against wireworm and armyworm, with ongoing search for parasites to combat the sugar cane borer. Vocational training and labor mobility are noted as potential solutions for plantation labor needs, alongside immigration policy improvements for Hawaiian-born Orientals. The Boy Scouts logged 1,575 service hours in 1924, and University of Hawaii women are taking up archery as a new supervised activity with English bows and Robin Hood style gear.
