CHINESE SUGAR CANE.

We have received small pamphlet, published
by Mr. VIM. Glaze, Of Columbia, 5. G. giving
account of experiments and observations upon the
Chinese Sugar Cane. The first part comprises
experiments and observations, made with a view
Of determining its value ID sugar producing plant
by Joseph Lowering, of Olkhill, Pennsylvania
From seven experiments, which are stated minutely,
he makes the following nferences: ..s
l. That it is obvious that there is a eliminating
point in the development of the sugar in the cane
which is the best time for sugar making. This
point or season consider to be, when most ii not
all the seeds are ripe and after several trosts-say
when the temperature falls to 25o or 800 Ferenheit
2 That frost, or even hard freezing. does not
iniure the juice the sugar; but that warm
Indian summer weather, after the frost and hard
freezing, does injure them very maze. .ial!y and
reduces both quantity and quality
g. That if the cane is cut and housed or shocked
in the field when in its most favorable condition,
will probably keep unchanged for Il long time
4. That when-the juice is obtained, the process
should proceed continuously and without delay.
5. That the clariication should be as perfect
possible by the time the density reaches l50 Beaume,
the syrup having the appearance Of good brandy.
q. That although eggs were used in these small
experiments, on account OF their convenience,
buocks blood, if to be had is equally good and
the milk Of lime alone will answer the purpose; in
the latter case however constant and prolonged
SklmnllS viii be required to produce perfect
clarlfication, which is highly important.
I. That the concentration, OF boiling down, after
clarifcation, should be rapid possible without
neutrality-suspicious. cyaporators being the best.
With these conditions secured, it is about as
easy to make good sugar from the Chinese cane as
to make a pot of good mush, and much easier than
to make kettle of good apple butter.
Included in the pamphlet is a very practical
statement of experiments made in Fairfield, by
Capt II. c.. Davis addressed to the members Of
the Fairfield Agricultural Society. The practi-
cabty of manufacturing the sugar seems yet to be
involved in uncertainty; but syrup of a superior
quality has been repeatedly made Last fall, at the
Fair in Winnsboro, we saw several varieties that
were made with great success So, also, at the
State Fair. With very little trouble and small
expense, every planter supply the home demand,
and thus contribute immeasurably to the comfort
f'is negroes. Even though in favor it might not
be able TO compete with the best New Orleans. yet
the cheapness with which it can be made, must
commend the syrup to that kindly consideration
for their negroes, which characteristics lanters
generally Co7un1bia Corolinion.

MASUREs.-The main reliance in
New England, as it always must be,
is that of the yards and stables and
muck beds. Guano, bone dust. unburn-
ed bones dissolved, are only adjuncts
for use in the drill, or for applications
to the growing crop. The stable manure
is carried out in the winter, or early
spring, in fermenting state, and kept,
in heaps mixed with muck, until it is
ready to be plowed in. These heaps
are turned over two or three weeks
before use, to help the decomposition.
"Raw muck" as direct manure,
is not equal to good stable manure
though excellent to loosen the soil
when that is needed. Get out all the
muck possible to mix with the cattle
droppings during Winter. Vegetable
muck is alse an excellent comforter to
