Louisiana Sugar Prospects Bright
ening.

1t o seem q that the old adagc
at is always darkest Just before day
is not without application to the sugar
interests of Louisiana.
In the first place. the depression in
values has reached bottom, and reac-
ton set in. Prices have advanced
Vel lc. per pound recently in all the
American markets. and when it is un-
lerstood that this has been broneht
about without any aid from speculative
influences, its significance will b- real
izsd. The article had reached Il price
at which it could not be produced. ex-
cept perhaps IN II few localities. and
yet. though so cheap. was not general
~ considered 4 safe investment. But
when a staple article sinks to that posi-
ton, the work Of regeneration sets in
silently and the equilibrium between
cost Of protection and market valne IS
restored aud men look back and won
der they could not see the necessity for
such restoration.
Along with tho rise in prices. and
more assuring aspect in that direction
has come another very important fac
tor in the problem. A new process for
haudling the cane has been tried on the
Plantation of Gov. H.C. Warmoth, and
found to Increase the yield Of sugar by
a very large percentage. The innova
ton consists in the use of an addition
al machine called q shredder consisting
of two cylinders re, diving against each
other (l,ke the rollers at present in use,)
the surfaces Of which are set with
knives The cane in passing through
these is chopped and broken. rendering
the work Of the mill comparatively ca
sy. The results attained are certified
to by Gov. Warmoth as follows
While grinding the first half of our
crop, our milling was very un>atisfac
tory. caused principally by the imper
feet construction, weakness and break
ing of our second mill gearing. Sever
al teeth were broken out of the spur
wheel. and through fearof others break
ing, and further delays, we could not
screw down this mill, aud the loss Of
juice was 81 great that we found diff
Guilty in burning our bagasse.
After the first run, these difficulties
We're partially remedied aud the ex-
traction much improved. The bagasse
now burned freely on an ordinary CRATE
svithout the use Of q bIower Ia thing we
never accomplished before,) keeping a
q hot fire under the boilers. and furnish
ing aus increased quantity of steam.
But at no time during the grinding
could We adjust the second mill as it
should have been, and our yield of juice
suffered from this imperfect milling.
But for this. Or total yield would have
been much larger than it was. Our 81
gar house books show the following le
suits:
The weekly Thibodaux sentinel and journal of the 8th Senatorial District. [volume] (Thibodaux, Lna. [i.e. La.]) 1875-1898, 1885-02-07

At the time your shedder wal erected
it seemed advisable to place it some IS
feet away from the mill. and the COM
mon cane carrier covered with ~canvas)
was used to convey the SHREDDED Cane
to the rolls. This unfavorable location
Of the shedder caused q loss in JUICE
which we estimate at2H to 3 per cont.
Before another campaign the shredder
will be placed close to tho rolls and
all of tho loss saved.
With stronger gearing and good mil
ling our crop would have yielded us
Pousds Of sugar per ton Of cane. Our
yield for 1853 was 143 pounds per ton
Of eape.
I commend your shredder to the %.

confidence that il will give tho best
