Sorghum in CIear6sId County.

Nh. Row-Dear Sir: Believing your
readers are interested in the success Of the
Chinese Sugar Cane, Isend you the result
Of an experiment which made this sea-
son.
planted spot Of ground in my lot,
(Which is gravelly,) about the middle Of
Juue, in bills as corn is usually planted,
three feet apart each way, and about four
grains to the hill. About the middle of
October, when the FIRST killing frost came,
L cut it, though it was not ripe; the
seed had hardly begun to change color.
Having no mill or press convenient, l cut
abou, two.thirds Of the largest part Of tho
stalks in pieces two or three inches in
length, put them in large kettle, and e.
traeted the sap by boiling.
The ground planted contained two per.
ehe-, which produced above two hundred
stalks Of the cane; and l had about two
gallons thick syrup, part of which ! boiled
down nearly to the consistency Of sugar,
and which appears to be fast granulating.
1t is now about equal to that in the bot
tom of barrel of good syrup, and will
weigh, probably, nine or ten pounds. The
syrup, about three quarss,in the opinion Of
those who have tasted it is equal TO the
best syrup molasses in favor.
The cane was about three-fourths Of an
inch in diameter, and was not as ripe as
it should have been, on account Of late
planting but, with all the disadvantages,
the experiment would be equal to ore hum
dred and sixty gallons Of syrup to the acre,
and allowing one half for expenses, would
leave better profit than ordinary farming
does in Clear6ell county.
Yours, d. s. PLorNER-

And none Of my bonne;S suit my face

And when the crash came, vain humbug's doom,
The brides display proved his fortunes tomb.
