HAYWOOD AND THE PLON
CONsUL-GENERALs REPORT TO
STATE DEPARTMENT.
Announces the Introduction of Ameri-
can Steam Gable Plows Into the
Sugar Industry Of the Islands.

In the daily issue of the advance
sheets of Consular Reports for Septem-
Der is, Consul General Haywood makes
the following report on American
steam plows in Hawaii:
Several days ago, there was landed
at this port, for the American Sugar
Company a set of steam plows made
by an American firm. These plows, I
am told, are the first of the kind made
by an American firm, those heretofore
made in the United States not being
of the cable description, but worked
by the engine hauling the plows over
the land. These new plows were made
by the o. S. Kelley Company, of
Springfield, Ohio. They were ordered
liam c. Gregg, who, l am told, intends
to remain here and see that no more
orders go to Scotland.
Heretofore, all the steam plows used
in Hawaii came from Scotland, because
they were cheaper and also because
American manufacturers did not make
the kind employed here.
The O. S. Kelley Company agreed to
furnish the plows as cheaply as the
Scotch firm would, and guaranteed that
they would be the equal in every par
ticular of those now in use. The com
pany wisely sent its own men over
to set them up.
The plows cost $4,000 per set. and
were delivered in forty days less time
than if ordered from Scotland.
1t is estimated that during the next
three years, some twenty or thirty sets
of plows will be required for the new
plantations. They will all be bought
in the United States, if the ones just
received prove equal to those made in
Scotland.
The American Sugar Company owns
one of the new plantations and has
justified its name by being the first
sugar estate on these islands to use
steam plows of American make
