WILD SUGAR CANE IN NEvApA.-The Virginia

WILD SUGAR CANE IN NEvApA-The Virginia
Trespass says:
In the tules along the banks of the Humboldt

You will find he knows nothing of Persia or China,
but knows the quality of sugar right WE'LL and

tules, and grows tall enough for men to hide in.
Several times when Indians from the north were
hunted down by citizens, aided by the friendly
Piutes. great trouble was met in the circumstance
thai the tules and sugar cane afforded such perfect
shelter that the game was hard to follow. This
cane of the Humboldt bottoms, sheltered from the
winds by the mass of tules that grows about grows
luxuriant'y and abundantly. Shaken in the wind,
the surface receives small breaks, and from these
the rich syrup exudes, and drying in the atmos-
phere It comes to the surface it forms sugar in
little balls along the cane stalk. These balls in
crease in size according to the length Of time the
wound in the stalk con tnues open. Sometimes
they found nearly as large walnut--com-
monty the size OF very larg hlbert. The Indians,
the sauaws, of course; the bucks perform not even
such sweet service-go through tn e brakes. Equip
ped with their large grass baskets, and collect su-
gar balls from the stalks They gather in this way
large baskets full They eat great deal of sugar,
and this is their certain and only resource for 1t.
We have and tasted the sugar. 1t is as white,
and in other properties equal to the best Chinese
sugar. We learn that at the sink of of the Carson
river, also. sugar cane is found native. 1t is prob
ably the same variety that We have seen on the
Humboldt. This may be an important thing to the
country-fnding the cane native Of the soil. 1t

will thrive. Sorghum made noted entry upon
the public attention some years ago, and because
of the announcement that it harder than the
common cane of the South and could be cultivated
in any soil or climate. 1t proved partial failure,
We have said on account OF the mpossibility of
