How to make Sorghum Molasses.
DANvILLE, Ind, 10th mo. 18th, 81.
MEssRs. EDrroRs: This day have for
varied you specimen of Sorghum Molas-
ses. made after the improved method, dis
covered and adopted by myself This
sample is made by adding one gill oil
alcohol to eight gallons of fresh expressed
juice; also adding at the same time one ia
ble-spoonful of soda. Let the juice thus
prepared stand half an hour. then strain
and Immediately put it into the kettle to
boil AS soon as in the kettle add three
eggs, thoroughly beaten, with ono pint OF
milk; bring the juice slowly to boil; but
just before it begins to boil, and when the
scum is at its toughest, skim carefully, and
if it does not present perfectly milk white
appearance, sprinkle small pinch of soda
in it and it will rapidly effervesce-casting
up all the remaining scum After this re-
duce as rapidly as possible to the consis-
tency of molasses. aud you have beauti.
full, colorless article, but little inferior to
strained honey. and not altogether dissimi-
lar in taste to that article. l have only
time to remark that the alcohol cuts the
resinous substance, whiIethe alkali coun-
teracts the acid; and the albuminous quality
of the eggs and milk, acting as kind Of
menstruum, collects the various impurities,
thus rendering them easily removed.
sketch the above in much haste, hoping
that it may be of service to those engaged
in the manufacture of molasses from the
sorgho. and, after the press of business i,
through with perhaps l may give the sub
ject further attention. Very respectfully
