About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Sorgho and Imphee, the Chinese and African Sugar Canes: A Treatise Upon Their Origin, Varieties and Culture; Their Value as a Forage Crop; And the Manufacture of Sugar If the subject of this work, the Chinese Sugar Cane, were as little kwn in Europe as it is at present in our own country, I might well hesitate before appearing as so decidedly its champion. The six years which have elapsed since its introduction from China into France, have seen it experimented upon in many different ways; and its capacity to yield various valuable products, has been more or less thoroughly tested. The attention of agriculturists, chemists, sugar makers, distillers, and others, has in turn been attracted to it as the possible source of profit to themselves; and in our own country, some of our most respected and trustworthy citizens have put it under cultivation, and anunced its value to the public. It therefore having been endorsed by investigators in both countries as a plant of great promise, and delusive speculation fostered by sanguine minds for interested purposes, I have addressed myself to the task of compiling all the evidence as yet placed at our disposal. And strengthening it by the result of my own experience and that of my friends, I have completed the testimony down to the latest moment, and ask for it a patient hearing. Various causes have combined to render the present year most auspicious to the cultivation and trial of a new sugar plant.
