would not make syrup. Mr.. Varna-
dore, who lives out toward Portman
Shoals had Is loads of cane which he
tried to make into syrup. He ground
the juice out of half of it and made
8 gallons of sorghum. This, however
was not fit for table use and will
have to be fed to the hogs.
A sample of the syrup was brought
to Mr.. S. M. Byars who sent it to
Clemson College. Mr. Byars also made
a trip out there to see what was the
trouble and found that the cane was
a mixture of kafir corn, feterita and
sorghum. 1t was also discovered that
the seed were boughtfn Hartwell, Ga.
and that they were shipped in there.
Mr.. Vardomore has lost a great deal
because of this kind of faulty seed
