Sinopsis
Excerpt from A Study of Various Sources of Sugar: Sugar-Cane, Sorghums, Sugar Beet, Maple, Watermelons, Etc
As for the possibilities of growing the sorghum, as many contend, from Texas to Maine, we fail to see the truth of the assertion. Attempts made to grow and utilize it in the.~ Souther factory, much more so than those this, again, proves in a positive the supposed Northern sugar cane. We are convinced, however, that with a proper selection Of seed, etc., its cultivation may be made compatible with the southern climate, which the sugar cane is not, as the heat required for its complete maturity is less than for the cane from which it originated. In regard to the sugar cane of the South, we would say that it is Obtained from cuttings, and not as in the West Indies from early sprouts that come from the original plant after being once planted. But with the sorghum, on the other hand, the seeds are grown one year, and planted the next. Many argue that two crops may be obtained in a season. If this were practically true, the sor ghum would be of immense advantage to the Southern sugar planters, but is worthless under all other circum stances. We have endeavored, in the following pages, to call attention to an acknowledged principle in sugar manufacture that is generally overlooked in the sor ghum arguments. In conclusion we would say, that syrup may be made from many-plants that are sweet, or contain combined with them any amount of sac~ Charine substances; but this molasses or syrup does but little towards the supplying of the home demand with sugar. We know of no sorghum sugar being prae tically made by farmers in larger quantities than per haps a few ounces at a time, and under remarkablecircumstances as to period of crystallization and per centage of juice utilized.

Excerpt from A Study of Various Sources of Sugar: Sugar-Cane, Sorghums, Sugar Beet, Maple, Watermelons, Etc
To Dr. George B. Loring, Commissioner of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir: In inviting your attention to the following pages, in which the undersigned has attempted to examine into the various sources of the supply of sugar, and especially of those which are, or have been, deemed available for this country, no apology is thought necessary. The overwhelming importance of the subject is such that it cannot be ignored by the American people, even if they would. Politically independent for more than a century, the United States has thus far been unable to achieve its industrial and financial independence. The result has been a visitation of almost periodic monetary crises, accompanied each time by a paralysis of industries largely arising from the great indebtedness of our people to Europe. The outlook at the present moment is such as to indicate that the fruits of the protective policy which we have enjoyed for two decades, may be such as to bring at an early day our entire emancipation from this thraldom.
