experiment was male with the bagasse after leaving the
mill The details OF his system, however, are not given:
y His theory Is, that the COMMON cane mills, both here wis
constnl and az the South, leave a very large portion Of the best
sugar material in the hagasse, and that they cannot be made,
by any amount Of pressure, TO get IL out And the process Of
'nacerztlon by water practised in France by the beetsugar
Manufacturers, may be applied TO the cane. In his experiment

and put through q common roller mill, giving three gallons Of
spruP, at 30 degrees Beaume. The bagasse Cpummice, or

tenn u maceration. using but one water, and yielded four and
a half gallons Of syrup at IS degrees BeGume, the latter syrup
being superior in taste and colour to that expressed by the
