NOVEL SCHEME
TO AID GROWTH
Of SUGAR CANE

;; HONOLULU. T. Has a re-
suit Of experiments conducted for
three wears. a large plantation on
the Island Of Hawaii IS preparing
10 paper" 5000 acres of its sugar
cane land, much like paperhanger
covers the walls Of a room.
To supply material. a paper mill
has been erected at a cost Of more
than s250.000, manufacturing heavy
mulching paper from bagasse, the
dry, fibrous refuse of sugar cane
after the juices have been pressed
cut. The paper IS prepared for use
in the fields by being saturated
with liquid asphalt.
The plan is to cover the fields
with the mulching paper. The
sturdy sugar cane drives its stalks
through the paper, but al weeds
are smothered c. F, Eckart, man
ager Of the plantation, says the
mulching process not only viii
greatly increase the yield of cane.
! but viii reduce field labor cos :
more than so per cent. The COW
ering paper not only keeps the
weeds out of the cane, but retains
moisture in the ground for It's
nourishment
The paper mill will take only 90
tons IF bagasse a day, one-tenth
of the sugar mills output during
. the grinding season, and will make
only enough paper for the planra-
ton.
L. A. Thurston, newspaper pub
Usher of Honolulu and one of the
founders of the plantation, is Of
the opinion that the manufacture
of paper from bagasse eventually
will become Hawaii's second great
est industry. 1t has long been
known that paper could be made
from bagasse, but low prices did
not encourage development of the
industry. With paper prices what
they are now, Mr.. Thurston says
there is no reason why Hawaii can
not become great paper-producing
country.
Bagasse can be manufactured
into roofing, sheathing, box board,
and wrapping paper, and by the
use of bleaching chemicals and ad-
ditional machinery, can be refined
into the best grades of book paper
