that Jackson's COW had been shot by

one of the colored men through the

Estimating the Sugar Crop.

We see that some papers are max
ing estimates of this years sugar
crop. These estimates, even when
-based upon the most correct data,
as to acreage, stand, and growth,
are bound to be uncertain. Some
years the same land, and same num-
Der OF acres, will produce cane
equally well grown, but which will
yield different amounts of sugar.
The cane is better filled with a c
charine matter some years than
others, Or the Saccharine matter is
in q better condition some seasons to
be separated from the bagassp.
" hen the season has been very dry
there seems not to be enough Juice
or sap in the cane, when ground, to
bringoutthe sugar: which isevinced
by the greediness of hogs and other
animals after the bagasse at such
times. After a part of the crop has
been ground, in very dry weather,
and made but little sugar. a good
rain on the balance of the crop will
greatly increase the yield. Again,
if the season has been a very wet
one all through, the cane is filled
with watery sap which contains very
little sugar. It seems that cane
growing on land well drained, needs
a great deal of rain up to about the
first, tenth, OF middle of September;
which causes it to grow large and be
we'll filled with sap. After this time,
cool dry weather causes it to mature.
AT the present time, the cane crop
in this parish looks usually fine. The
stand is good, and the growth is
large. The rains have been propi-
tious thus far but experienced
planters have told us, that if they
continue, the yield will fall short:
and that if we have dry weather from
this out, it will be large. Some years
the same quantity Of cane will yield
twice as much sugar as it will
others-this is owing to the nature
Of the season, and condition of the
when ground. Acreage and
growth of the cane can not al
ways be depended upon to make an
estimate of the numberof h~ogsheads
that will be produced. The fertility
the soil, the acreage, the growth
Of the cane, and the nature of the
season, must all be considered in
making an estimate; and as even a
days change in the season, Just
grinding, affects the yield, it
s difficult to make anything like a
correct estimate until the cane, or
'art OF it, is actually ground and the
lice boiled to sugar, from which
'ome idea may be obtained as to the
'ield of the entire crop. J
