fuel Those used here are the Porcupine boilers

furnaces are fed with bagasse, force OF eighty

two men do the work Of eighty; or. TO speak more
accurately the automatic action Of the mechahlcai

From the grnding-mill the cane-uce is pumped

Of the boiling works. In these tanks it is treated
with lime. which neutralizes the acid. The
