Corn Sugar

Uur exchange papers contain notices of Böccessfu] o.ttempts at making corn sugar in different Stutes. We propose that several enterprising farmers of our State sliould malte a careful experiment Ihe next season, and report throug ii the Signa!. Ifthere is any thing in the project, it ought to be generally known. lis resulta may be very important. Here is an account of the process as given by theAlbany Tocsin.. I sat down to write of Corn Sugar, nccording to my promise, to several friend.=, wlio propose to try an experiment with it, next spring, to the extent of an ncre or two, at least. I have recently noticed many puccessfirl cxperimerls to make sugar and molaesesy in varieos parts of the country. Thcy can be nttended by no loss. For ihestalks will make good fodder if nolhing else.

To have the sngar chrystalize, the juice when boiled down sliould be 'laced in shallow pans, over a frentle heat, or in the sim, by day and in a well warmed room by night. If through want of experjence, the experimentar does not get his sugar, the valué of the moheeea is notchanged. It is much like honey and contains much more saccharinc than the best New Orleans or Trinidad molasses.
