NEW WAY OF MAKING SUGAR.
The Diffusion Process Seems To Be q
Complete Success.

The Diffusion Process Seems To Be q
Complete Success.
WASHINGTON CITY. Oct &c. -Commis-
sicner Colman. speaking of the recent ex-
periments by the department OF agriculture
in making sugar by the diffusion process,
said that he was more than satisfied.
hope that much of the loss now &C.
ca ilnel il the course OF milling
and subsequent manufacture might be pre-
vented by change of process. 1t is said
not to be an extravaganza estimate to put
the waste of sugar, either in the milling or
the manufacture, at full half of all that is
produced by the soil To test the
d:tru ion method, apparatus was
arecte in Kansas for cutting sorghum
into thin slices, and a diffusion bat
terry OF ten cells was put up to extract the
sugar. The experiments gave yield OF ~
per cent of the total sugar present,
although mechanical difficulties in the form
Of the apparatus, which could not be fore
seen, interfered somewhat with the success
full working of the process in the
matter of economy. These difficulties
can be readily overcome, however,
and Col. Colman has no doubt that
the work can be conducted more cheaply
than in the Kansas experiments. To avoid
the loss incident to the usual process Of
manufacture, the process known in the beet
sugar industry as carbontation was tried.
This experiment was conducted under the
supervision of Mr.. G. l. Spencer, and its
results were entirely satisfactory. To the
juice as it comes from the mill, or the diff
fusion battery, a large excess of lime is
added, aud this is afterward precipitated by
blowing through the mixture current Of
carbonic acil. The precipitate which falls
carries down with it nearly all the impuri-
ties of the juice. and leaves them in state
suitable to easy separation by filtration.
The use of this process entirely sup.
presses the losses from scunls, and affords
product in every way superior to that given
by the oh method 1t was the inten-
ton of the department to make
similar experiments in louisiana, and
preparations for them were nearly
completed; but delay in getting a part of
the apparatus AMI the improvements sug-
gested by the experiments in Kansas sug
gested the advisibility of postponing the
work for another year.
