Dear Editor-In the meeting held
last Thursday for discussing the can

fore us to decide was sidetracked and
the one of Can We Manufacture and
Can Syrup" injected in its stead, one
that is not open to discussion or de-
bate, as this has long passed from
the experimental stage to one of prac-
tice, of certainty. l regretted that l
was fool enough to endeavor to bring
before the meeting a question other
than Can We Can Syrup" l say We
can can syrup and we can can syrup
that we can sell. You will yet see
that the point is: Can We grow sut
ficient cane in close enough proximity
can handle it at a profit to the fac
tory or shall we locate other mills il
convenient places and pump the juice
to the factory. Now the vegetable
growing and canning is very simple
and cheap. There it is all in the man.
agement. If you have a manager who
is familiar with and understands the
! intelligent use of chemicals, under
stands the use of nitrates (nitrating
of fertilizers, especially, knows how
to use insecticides and fumicides and
in other words is capable to instruct
or, if necessary for the interest Of
the company, take charge of any
crop and carry it on to completion, it

of trying to put in a cane mill this

too late to construct the mill as it

Second. There is not acreage
