EVA PLANTATION
To TEST NEW WAY
TO EXTRACT SUGAR
(From Thursdar,s Advertiser..l

ANAVih 4huApAdg . AONNAtAoCA-J
Within three weeks the new sugar
extraction system devised by E. E. Bat
telle of wailuku plantation, Maui, will
be given an exhaustive test at Eva
plantation where plant is being in
stalled under Mr.. Battelle's supervi-
sion.
The new system is expected to revo-
lutionize sugar making, the chief fea-
ture being a more complete extraction
of sugar than by any process now in
existence. The soluble sugar compost
tfon of elements which are now more
OF less waste will be saved by the pro-
cess, so Mr.. Battelle claims, and sug-
ar men who have had ar opportunity
to inspect his plant, and particularly
while 1T was set up at Wailuku, are of
the opinion that the process will be
do all that is claimed for it by the
inventor.
Mr.. Battelle is young man, but is
regarded as one of the foremost sugar
experts in the Islands. He gave an adj
dress last night before the Hawaiian
Engineering Association on sugar ex-
traction, accompanying the same by
blackboard illustrations. His paper did
not deal with any features of his own
process. Should his process be success
fully demonstrated at Eva he win give
an address before the association deal
ing exclusively with his own method.

Capt. Hardy Fauors State
Buying Farm in South MISS.

Captain w. H. Hardy, the pioneer,
public spirited citizen of Gulfport, who
has contributed so largely to the up
building of South Mississippi and the
development of its natural resources,
has taken the initiative in urging the
legislature to purchase 1000 acres of
cut-over lands in this section to be
used as a state convict farm in rails
ing sugar cane. The plan favored by
Capt. Hardy is to buy the land on one
of the railroads entering Hattiesburg,
and to erect in Hattiesburg modern
syrup mill and sugar refinery.
The movement If carried to a sue
cessful conclusion would mean untold
benefits to the farmers Of this part
of the state as it would be an incen-
tive for them to plant more sugar
cane with a certain market for the
product. It would also be the means
of developing large tract of the cut
over lands, than which there are none
better adapted for raising sugar cane
