syrup obtained per acre from his
cane. Also if he has good chance
We venture to say he will send us a
sample of the aforesaid syrup.
Judging from the specimens
brought to this office recently our
farmers certainly have been "raising
cane" this year. We received
samples last week from the fields Of
Messrs r J. Phillips and Hugh
Tisdale. both of whom live in the
Cedar Swamp section. Mr. Phillips
stalk measures Z! feet in length, and
this he SAYS is an average specimen
from from the half acre he planted.
Mr. Tisdale borught us two stalks,
the longest of which is z! feet long
and the other Il few inches shorter.
The ribbon cane makes delightful
syrup and we are glad to see that
our farmers are so successfully cult
waiting it.
