Hawaii MAN
|NVENTS NEW
WEED KILLER

An invention which should prove OF
great value to the sugar planters OF
this Territory, and in fact all over the
world. is now being perfected by 1,
J. Ryan, of Mountain View, Hawaii,
and for which application for patent
papers has already been made. 1t Is
a machine which is designed to destroy
weeds in the young cane at a compare
lively small cost, and which seems to
be eminently fitted for this work.
The machine which has been invented
by Ryan will burn away the weeds,
which now cause the planters so much
trouble, and is so arranged that it may
be attached to cultivator, taking the
place of the gangs which are used
in that machine. 1t is so arranged
with shields that it's flames will not
iniure the growing cane, while all
weeds will be destroyed. The flames
are produced by machine which is to
a certain degree somewhat similar to
the DlON tOICHGo uSCu ny G1AhhSAS "
burn the old paint off buildings which
are to be reprinted. AS shown in the
illustrations, these burners are ar
ranged in batteries of six, one of which
will run on each side of row of cane,
making one trip across cane field
necessary for each two rows of cane.
A tank containing compressed air, at
a pressure of from seventy-tive to
eighty pounds, furnishes the air with
which the gas blown through the noz-
zles is generated, and which may be
readily replenished through the use OF
a small force pump. The machine may
be used for killing the weeds in a
cane field till the cane is nearly three
feet in height, when the dry leaves
which appear at that time would rem
der more or less danger in the use of
the machine, as they might be set on
fire and cause damage to the field.
Guards, set from six to eight inches
from the ground, are placed TO prevent
any damage TO the burners, Ifon tue
hitting of stones which may be in the
field, while the burners are placed only
little higher and will destroy all sur
plus growth, which is now hard to be
handled except by hand.
In order that the use of this ma
chine may be made as cheap as posi-
BILE, it has been so arranged that it may
be mounted on the cultivators which
are in use on practically all the plan
tations, by simply taking off the gangs.
In case the ground over which it is
to be run is rough, sled may be used,
thus making very cheap but convent
ent manner in which it may be handled.
Mr.. Ryan has been spending the past

ly retired therefrom.
As was stated, John Ewing, repre-
sentative of the capial will be repre-
sented in the new company. came to

stocks issued for those in existence in
the hands of the stockholders of the
three companies, the merger will be

In the senate the name of Mr.. Gug-

The name of ex-Gov. Thomas was
presented by the Democratic leaders.
Myrtle d. Vincent, the only Repub-

for Simon Guggenheim placed in
nomination the name OF Frank c.

The attack of Mr. Vincent upon
Simon Guggenheim was the bitter

the state and who has so successfully

man is a ranchman, the young lady is
exceedingly attractive, they are popu-

There were only the necessary
number of witnesses to the ceremony

telling that the new justice was more
nervous than the groom but that We
doubt. However. the justice did the
work in admirable style and to the
utmost satisfaction of the young peo-
pie, who will doubtless recommend
Justice Hill to all their friends who
are matrimonially inclined.
