n ATIONAL CANE
SHREDDER.

recently been installed at the
mill of the Paahau Plantation
Company, Hamakua, Hawaii,
and Mr.. Andrew Moore, the
manager, writes concerning it:
PAAUHAU PLANTATION Co.,
HAMAKUA, Jan. 10, 1895.
WIN. G. IRWIN a. Co., LTD, HONOLULU:
GENTLEMEN-The mill has been running dur
ing the past two weeks, with the National
Cane Shredder lately installed, giving the
most satisfactory results.
Our mill consists of three sets of two roll
lers, SO in. dia. by Y in. long, the shredder
discs being ) #. in. long, driven by an
automatic engine IL in. dia. cylinder by IA
| in stroke.
The Rattoon cane being milled is as hard
as it is possible for cane to be, having been
subjected to a severe drought during the
whole period of its growth, and growing on
land with trade wind exposure. Our ex-
perience with the Shredder, particularly with
above cane, proves it to be just what our
mills required, the shredded cane being better
prepared to have its Juice extracted than for
merly after passing through the first mill.
| The first mill is now allowed to open GIG in.
instead of Is in. as formerly, so that the trash
now leaves the first mill, better ground, than
it formerly did the second, and this without
the old timed groaning, choking, and strain
| ing of the machinery.
| Behind the first and second mills we apply
| hot water, the quantity for the past ~ days,
as per statement attached, has averaged 35
per cent. on the total juice from the cane.
The trash from the last mill is cut up much
finer than before the Shredder wis applied,
much of it resembling saw dust, it contains
as per statement 80 per cent. of moisture and
makes good fuel, the juice from the last mill
stands degrees Brix., so that the moisture
in the trash is of ) per cent sugar solution.
The Boilers make steam much easier than
before, now care has to be taken to keep them
from blowing off, whereas before great care
was necessary to keep the steam from going
too low when the Pan was on.
By the Use of the Shredder we have dis
pensed with six men, formerly necessary to
distribute the cane on the carrier, feed the
first mill, and throw back the long pieces.
The Shredder Machinery is good sub
stantial JOB, and should cause little or nc
trouble, as it is subjected to but light strains.
You will see that by applying the Shred
der, our work in all departments has been
very materially Notwithstanding a
better extraction at less expense than former
ly The great improvement in our steam,
causes much satisfaction to those engaged in
the Mill.
Yours Respectfully,
A. MOORE.

OF Interest tn All

During dangerous weather of this
sort. said the old doctor, "the most
careful persons are apt to catch cold
in their chests that will extend swiftly
to the lungs if not attended to. Tt usu-
ally makes its presence known by CON
stricted sensation just under the breast5
bone where the flesh is the thinnest--
When person experiences this feeling
he can rest assured that he can procure
almost instant relief by drinking cup
OF water as hot as he can hear to take in
the mouth and to swallow. There is no
better medicine in the world to arrest
the progress of cold than hot water,
and, besides its effect upon the stomach
and the system generally, it is bene-
fetal in the highest degree. And in sore
throat tho remedy will be found almost
a specific. "-Washington Star. !,

Differing Opinions on This and Other Sub
jects Connected With Her Highncss.
Queen Victoria has been in London
recently, according to The Court Circu-
Lar, but if il had not been for the Off
cial chroniclers the inhabitants of the
metropolis would probably not have
been aware of their sovereign's s presence
among them, for, save for her drives to
and from the railway stations, her mai
esty has only shown herself in public
once, and then muffled up to the eyes
against the cold weather. On the
strength of that solitary peep courtly
but mendacious reporters have ventured
to descant upon the queen s good health
and lively spirits.
The fact is that she never looked so
aged and wan and worn as at present.
She is less able than ever to walk even
the shortest distance without assistance,
and she is bent almost double. Never
theless the renewed talk of her abdi-
eating in favor of the Prince Of Wales
may be dismissed as pure invention, for,
If physically feeble, Queen Victoria is
mentally thoroughly sound woman,
and she is said to retain to the fullest
degree her marvelously clear percep-
tlon Of the most intricate affairs Of
state. She will start for the south of
France in about week. k.-London Let

DRUGGISTS MUST HAVE GOOD NOSES.
Missouri Pharmacists Preparing to Have
Smelling Contest.

missouri Pharmacists Preparing to Have
Smelling Contest.
In Missouri druggists dfo preparing
to hold big smelling contest at the an
nual meeting of the State Pharmacout-
Eical association next spring. That pill
roller who can name the greatest num-
ber Of drugs just by smelling of them
will carry off q cash prize Of $50. 1t
will probably be the first contest of the
| sort ever held, though druggists have
always recognized the value Of we'll
trained proboscis In determining the
nature Of chemicals -.-
Chicago pharmacists are both inter
ested and amused over the prospects for
q smelling contest. There are few drugs,
common or rare, that are absolutely
odorless, and the test Of smell is a rec
ognized one among all pharmacists.
"a druggist must have a good nose, ;"
said one. '"The odor Of drugs is part of
the test in all pharmaceutical colleges.
A druggist will test drugs first by his
nose, then by sight, then by taste.
Then he will experiment in chemical
reactions. A great many rare drugs.
like &cumarin, can be determined by
odor. Cumarin is derived from the
tonka bean and has its distinctive odor
Other drugs, like carbolic acid in crys-
tails, are easily distinguished Even sub
stances like oxalio acid, by setting up
characteristic irritation in the nostrils,
may be determined. Sodium hyposul-
phite has O. faint smell discernible by
the educated nose, and nitrate Of silver
has faint but distinctive SMELL The
cyanide salts have an odor like peach
or cherry stones - the prussic acid
smells. All the salts of aoetic acid are
easily determined, and iodine and bro
mine salts have also their distinctive
odors. On the other hand, the sodium
salts are hard to distinguish. Hydras-
tine has no smell, and you cannot dis
tinguish the salts of mercury by it's
smell. AS for the tinctures, they are
more easily distinguished by odor than
the salts. Nearly all of them have
decided smell. Take arnica, camphor,
peppermint, cardamon, even a layman
can distinguish them by their odors.
Druggist D. R. Dycho says: "It is
rather comical idea-that Of a smell
ing contest. Probably the pharmacists
in Missouri have better noses than we
have here in Chicago. This lake air is
not beneficial. You could probably run
up a list Of 900 or 300 chemicals that
could be determined by smell alone.
Take common drugs like angelica root,
benzoin, rose leaves, even opium, sassa-
fras, annis, peppermint, cherry bark,
spearmint and the many of the aromat-
ic oils and fluid extracts like thyme or
buchu or senna-any one not an expert
can easily determine them. If taste and
smell could both be employed, all enor-
mously big list could be prepared. -
