Syrups.

To the Editor of the Picayune:
The explanation of Prof Chandler, as
quoted in the Scientific American, Of the
formations of syrups from refined sugars |
do not dispute. Such syrups are what
they should be. venture to assert they
will not blacken the teeth. But the "gold-
en- syrup" made from starch and snlphuric
acid is an imitation of these. That iron
should necessarily occur in glucose syrup
is not true: but l contend that all I have
examined did contain it, which, suppose was
caused by the long continuous action of the
acid upon the iron vessels in which the
syrup is made, forming a solution of sui
phate of iron Common copperas.) When
the manufacturers use other material the
test for iron may prove useless. Troem
ner's test for glucose can then be used. |
don't wish. to be understood as condemn
ing glucose syrup. My purpose is only to
give those who prefer cane syrup the op-
portunity of distinguishing il. If the
drippings of cane sugar contain iron, the
sugar would exhibit like characteristics. |
have applied the test for iron to cant sugar
and molasses and found none. The action
of boiling cane juiee neutralized as it is by
lime has little effect on the kettles, as tests
show. Under the circumstances, I say
cane syrup, as now made on plantations
in Louisiana, does not contain iron to an
appreciable extent, blacken the teeth, or
produce a burning sensation in the sto-
mach, and that which does may fairly be
supposed something else.
Very respectfully,

RAISING HoGs.-From that sterling pa
per, the Holly springs (MississippD Re
porter, We place before our readers the
following sound advice:
There is no possible reason why the
South cannot make its W supply of meat.
There is no section of the country which
will not produce the hog, nor does the eli
matte effects prevent its being properly
cured. Our agricultural journals which
very rightly cry plant more corn" should
also add, raise more hogs, cure your own
meat and save your wi money" From
one of our exchanges we find that the
South alone spent in meat last season
$4,000, coo, or counting last years crop Of
cotton to have averaged 500 per bale,
1t took $500, 600 bales Of cotton to pay for
meat alone.
We have never heard bnt one single ar
gument used by planters to explain why
they could not raise hogs, and that was,
that the freedmen stole the stock, having
a liking, for other peoples meat. We can
not see any strength in this line of argu-
ment. Just as the freedman is interested
in his employers cotton crop, so could he
be made personally liable for the hog crop.
What, however, is the truth, is that the
corn is utterly neglected, and of course,
where there Is no grain there can be no
pork.
Should the present European war con-
tinue, which would be likely to enhance
the price of all provisions, VIC should think
eur planters would take every measure to
insure them q stock of meat, made by
themselves.
