Not long ago we came across one of

OSCAR HAS NEW MACHINE
Hammerstein Turns From Opera to a
Tobacco Saving Device

From the New York Times
What Oscar. Hammerstein has been
doing in the last four months, besides
concocting plans for new opera houses.
Was made apparent yesterday when 1t
was discovered that he had taken out
patent for a new cigar machine. This
machine will utilize the stem of the to-
bacco leaf as well as the leaf itself In
making cigars. The machine is in prac-
tlcal working order on the roof of the
Victoria theatre.
For years there has been an attempt
made to invent a machine by which the
tobacco stems could be Incorporated in
to cigars. AS matters stand now at
least e-fourth of the raw product is
wasted in cigar manufacture.
The apparatus is simple. II stands
not over three feet high. and in general
appearance resembles an old fashioned
clothes ringer propped up on four legs.
Encircling two rollers at the center are
two brass bands or ferrules with CORFU
cations running the long way. The
operator sits at the machine and feeds
the leaf, stem first. between the rollers
and passes II out on the other side ex-
actly as linen collar would be fed
through a clothes wringer. the operator
taking care that the dimrib passes
through at the point at which the brass
hands encircle the rollers. These bands
