A writer i'll some agricultural paper
calls attention to the fact of the con-
slant and steady multiplication of the
English sparrow. and predicts that the
time will come when this little bird
VIII become us great Il pest as the rab-
bits in Australia. It seems that the
sparrow not only drives away song
birds and destroys their Young, but
eats up corn, oats, wheat, rice and
either crops and attacks all kinds Of
fruit. What he does not eat he peckS
at and thus renders unsuitable. As the
conditions for the propagation OF this
species of bird are extremely favorable

damage that will be done by the spar

THE DIFFUSION PROCESS.

THE DIFFUSION PROCESS.
At present there is agreat discussion
going on as to the merits Of the new
process of extraction of cane Juice,
called diffusion. Our readers would
probably feel grateful to lis if we gave
them a description of the process. We
T enabled to do SO by means of n
private letter, addressed to Il gentle
nan of this town by Mr.. James l.. Rob-
insOn, who is i'll charge of the CHARTERS
at Sugar Lands, Fort Bend county,
Texas. We quote from the letter as
follows:
The diffusion battery is fed by three
a carriers. The first one is fully
four feet wide and about sixteen inches
deep-the anne as Il mill carrier. This
carrier carries the cane to IL machine
termed 'cane cutter" which cuts the
canc stalks into round blocks about
" inches long. The cane then leaves
this machine and goes 10y carrier. to
another machine, termed 'masticator."
which cuts these two-incli round blocks
of cane into fine chips. and it then
goes by another carrier to the battery
in right condition to be used. The
battery consists of sixteen cells en-
tirely Independent OF each other. and
each cell holds two tons of these pre-
pared zane chips. After the cell re-
ceives its charge Il cap is screwed
down (for the. are charged on top) and
the different pressulcs are put on. viz:
air, water and stcam-each in turn-tO
extract the juice. After these pres
sures are removed tie Juice cock is
opened. and the liquid flows into tanks
made for the purpose. Just like the or
binary juice tanks in all sugar houses.
After Il cell has had all the juice let
out, these two tons of bagasse are
dropped out from il large door under
meath and are carried Oft by another
carrier to Il tagasse burner. This ba-
sasse is utilized as fuel, saving any
planter (under Mr.. SATELLITES patent)
fully seventy five per rent of his fuel.
The diffusion gets all the juice, say 100
per cent, making twenty per cent more
than any mill Il extract.
AS the system Of diffusion has proven
such II success in securing the largest
possible extraction ut Col. Cunning
hams plantation in Texas. we see no
reason for doubling that the time has
come to adapt the process to all our
Louisiana sugar houses. From the
above description it would seem to be
a comparatively inexpensive process.
The whole apparatus ought not to cost
much, if anything, more than the pre-
sent heavy roller mills. Gov. War
moth has IA complete diffusion plant on
his Magnolia plantation this season.
and he intends to give the new system
a fair trial. We have no information
as to whether he has succeeded or not.
but from the fact that diffusion is a
success at Sugar Lands, Texas, we see
no reason to suppose that the hopes
of Gov. Warmoth are destined to he
disappointed.
