teen stalks were crushed, which produced
over quart of good syrup. Now thirteen
stalks of Sugar Nlillet can be raised ON each

Ions 90 the acre. Others have made similar
experiments, and calculated the produce to
to be from 400 to 500 gallons per acre. Sup
posing that 400 gallons are raised, at 80 cts.
