Successful Experiments with Beet.
Root Sugar I'm England.

Mr.. Caird writes to the London Times
81 send you Il sample Of the English
bect-root sugar made by 1lr. Duncan this
season, at Lavenham, in Suffolk, from beet
grown by the farmers in that neighborhood
II brought the highest price in the market for
sugar in crystals. Mr. Duncan is at present
converting into sugar about four hundred
tons Of roots week. This is now the third
year Of the Lavenham factory, and Of the
growth and manufacture of English beet,
root sugar on a considerable scale-a scale
equal in extent to that Of continental sugar
factories. The analysis of the roots in both
previous years had shown the quality to be
satisfactory, but chemical and mechanical
means for fully extracting it proved aefec.
tive. Mr.. Duncan has now satisfied him.
self that the growth and manufacture OF
beet sugar can be carried on in Suffolk with
quite as much success rs in the north o1
France.
have .1tiore me the figures of last weeks
J, ""uT uTking. The total value OF the syrup
produced is G96O. The expenditure, in
Guiding cost OF roots, Government duty,
and working expenses, does not exceed
.eG6O. So there is handsome balance fol
interest OF capital and profit, besides the
value OF the refuse pulp sold. and thus re-
turned to the land for cattle food. The
roots are no doubt richer in sugar this year
than usual ; but, on the other hand, sugar
is very cheap. .@g
Broadly Stated, the conversion of the
roots into sugar has more than doubled
their value, though bought fronl the farmer
ut Il price more remuneratiye to him Than
any other article he produces. The LAND
is not impoverished, US nearly the whole o
the feeding properties Of the beet is re-
turned to it to fatten cattles The whole
available surplus labor of an agriculture
parish receives indoor employment, in the
sugar factory, during three OF four months
of the slackest time of the year, aud al
good wages. Capital is prohtably employed
and trade of all kinds in the neighborhooo
benefited, while the general supply OF su
gar is augmented. 80 -
This opens large question. If in the
southern and eastern counties we can grow
beet sugar as proftably as in the north OF
France, we can compete, as France has
successfully competed, With cane sugar
from any quarter.
MIR. Campbell, of Buscot Park, in Berk'
shire, is conducting on a great scale SIM
liar experiment, so far as the growth OF the
sugar beet is concerned, but with the ultl'
mate intention of being able to convert the
root either into sugar or spirit, as may al
the time be most profitable. The weight
and quality Of the sugar beet grown on his
estate this season cannot be surpassed.
About 200, 600 acres of mangold are grown
annually within the area | have indicated
One-fourth OF this, if applied to sugar beet,
should yield 80, ,0O0 tons Of sugar, or about
one-tenth of the present consumption oil
the kingdom. This would seem not very
remote result of more extensive trials, and
when attained the further progress would
be rapid. - .a#t. ~
