This is obtained by steam. The

Pure cane syrup is almost IN

field is ripe for its Introduction.
We know that a ton of cane
mauufac' ured INTO sugar Is more
profitable than if made into syrup
under existing conditions We
believe that if syrup can be pr Git

canned by steam pressure and
sold at go to 75c per gallon here
and 75c to 81 90 per gallon by

very profitable, even more so than
sugar. Now, there are no costly

ing. A $50 90 steam pressure
Gamer will can as successfully, IN
small way, as the $1,000 and

If there is any further lnforma.
