Largest Filter Presses In Hawaii Now Beng
Built For Maui Agricultural Company

The press is closed by II hydraulic
ram and when closed it is held in
place by a mechanical locking device
which is independent OF the hydraulic
pressure, thus making the use of an

HOW WE SELL REFINED
IN CHICAGO TERRITORY

The terms under which San Francisco
refined are marketed are quite different
from those in the eastern part of the
| nlted States. They ship in S00,bag
cars to Chicago territory in order to
secure the 48 cent freight rate. The
price is guaranteed on day of arrival
against their own decline, half of cars
are billed and take price on day of
arrival.
me invoice on second half of cars is
dated seven days after arrival, and
guarantee on second half of cars ex-
tends to seven days after arrival of
car. For instance, if one of their cars
arrived in Chicago today, the buyer
would be billed with 400 bags at their
price today, even if lower than con
tract price. Invoice for the remaining
500 bags would be dated seven days
from today and would take their price
as Of that date.

How TOCANFRUES
WITHOUT SUGAR

Fruit for use in pie or salads or as
stewed fruit can be put up or canned
without the use of any sugar at all, &C,
cordiHg TO the canning specialists of
the dfPaftnent of agriculture at Wash.
fngton.
They, therefore, advise those who, be.
cause Of the high price of sugar, have
been thinking of reducing the amount
Of fruit they put up, to can as much
of their surplus as possible by the use
of boiling water when sugar syrup is
beyond their means. Any fruit, they
say, may be successfully sterilized and
retained in the pack by simply adding
boiling water instead Of the hot syrup.
The use of sugar, Of course, is de
sirable in the canning of all kinds Of
fruits and makes n better and ready
sweetened product, Moreover, most of
the fruits when canned in water alone
do not retain their natural flavor,
texture and color as well as fruit put
up in syrup. Fruit canned without
sugar to be used for sauce or desserts
must be sweetened.

HE largest filter press ever built
or used on these Islands is row
- being CONSTRUCTED by the Homo
lulu Iron Works Company who have
an order for four for the Maui Agri,
cultural Company.
The design of these big "Fohebur y
presses is the result of inventions pat.
ented by c. ID. Burchenal of No. 80
Maiden Lane. New York, and the cx.
perience of J. p. Foster and l.. Hcbert
of the Maui Agricultural Company.
Among the novel features of the
press is the arrangement of the filter
cloth which allows the formation of
large cakes, so that the press will hold
about three times as much mud as the
ordinary press using the same size
cloth and this is done with less than
one half the amount of cloth usually
required.
The elements are carried on steel
rollers 80 that the press may be readily
operated by two men. The labor eX-
pensc il no greater than in operating

presses discharges lao cubic feet of
mud (about 565 tons) at each dumping.

RUSSIAN SALES MONOPOLY
TO CONTROL SUGAR PRICES

Willett & Gray's Russian correspon-
dent, writing from Petrograd June 10,
says that the information from the
beet fields is not as regular or full as
it used to be, and probably not as cor
rect. The most interesting item at
the moment is the conference that has
been held with the assistant minister
of finance, A. /. Nikolaienka on the
proposed monopoly of sugar. This pro-
posed measure has pretty wide and
pretty varied support. Some ecOno-
mists advocate it in order to increase
the government revenue, and others
in order to insure the regular supply
of the article to the people.
The opponents of the measure are
naturally to be found amongst the ex'
listing producers, who insist, and did
insist at the meeting, that government
interference with the sugar business to
greater extent than the law now al!
lows could only result in making the
production of sugar dearer. 1t is more
a sales monopoly, however, than y
manufacturing monopoly that appears
to be in view.
A Doubtful Proposition
The general feeling at the meeting
referred to was that the position gem
orally is far too eapricious for the gov
eminent to come to a clear decision on
it, and the meeting was of opinion that
in view of the unreliability of current
data for forming a decision, the minis
ter of finance should prepare an APP
proximate estimate of the position OIL
the basis of the cost of production pre-.
vious to the war. This really means
hanging up the project for a consider
able time. 1t may be observed here
that large financial interests have re.
Gently entered into the sugar industry,
and their power in the matter of resist
ing the institution of monopoly will
certainly be found to be considerable.

GUESSING At the Crop

The Sugar Factors Company has
shipped 37O,l76 tons of 1916 crop SUI
gnrs to August ]. Adding what has
been sent forward by the seventeen
independent plantations, total shipments
on that date were 44S,045 tons.
OF setting the plantations which
have ovcr-run against those that have
fallen below the June estimates, the
crop TO be sold will probably be 500,
900 tons, which will leave ~, 900 tons
still to 80 forward; and adding t" the
exports an estimated 10000 tons local
ly consumed or used by the Gamers
the 1916 crop may finally approximate
600 900 toms.

AND YET PEOPLE TALK
ABOUT PLANTATION PROFITS

According to the Wall Street journal
of July 20: "Net earnings of $751;,
l36,O4S reported by United States Steel
for the second quarter of the current
year were much larger than generally
expected. Most of the estimates
ranged between $7O,OOO,0OO and $75,-
100000. That Wall Street did not cx-
pect anything in the way of an extra
dividend was suggested by the sagging
tendency of the stock during the
greater part of yesterdays Stock Elk
change session, particularly at the
close. Therefore the large earnings
and an extra dividend of one per cent
on the common came in the nature Of
a surprise.
THAT net earnings were record
breaking goes without saying. The
$751; l26,O4S compared with 500, 713, 624,
the previous high record reached in the
first quarter of this year. Until that
time the highest record reached in Il
single quarter was in the second quar-
ter of 1907 when $45,5O3, 7O5 was re-
ported. At that time these earnings
were considered marvellous
Incidentally, net earnings in the
second quarter of this year were near,
ly $lO,000,00O in excess of what they
were in the entire year 1914.
"That the results for the last thrc"
months were beyond expectations is
evident from the fact that the surplus
applicable to the common stock would
be equal to $ll.6S a share on that issu"
or at the rate of $46.72 a share an
nLally. The most optimistic prcdic-
ton was that earnings in the second
quarter would be at the annual rate OF

Tom had found Mabers latchkey on
the hall table. Knowing she had for.

front door for her. Now. hearing the

Mabel had a better time than she
had expected at the pavilion dance
that evening.
The first check to her pleasure came
about ten o'clock when Elsie Paynter's
brother brought up man to be intro.

pleasure as she recognized the new
conner. He WINS Henry Rokeson.
For more than a year Henry's eyes
had followed Mubel's dainty figure with
open admiration as she passed him on

to himself that he was genuinely In
love with this girl whom he had never
even met. He had taken to spending
much time near his own side the boun-

in the Morrissey garden. Thus It was
that he had heard that afternoon Of
her intention to go with Elsie Paynter
to the pavilion dance.
Henry had laid his own plans &C.
cordlngly. He had gone to the dance,
had. with some difficulty. found out
that the man who escorted the two
girls was Elsle's brother. and had,
by dint of good deal of diplomacy,
nicknd an acouaintan"e with him. The
