THE PROSPECTIVE SLT.AU CHOP IN ILLINOIS
}li\ E. S. Baker of Rochester Mills, Wabash
county in this State, writes to the Bellviiie
Ail reads, that he shall plant twenty-five acres
with the Chinese sugar-cane the present sea-
SON. "I am convinced," lie says, " that the
state of Illinois will in five years make her
own sugar, and if I have luck I shall make
this season enough sugar, and certainly will
molasses, to supply my little town. At all
events I shall try."
Mr. Krob, of Wabash county, who, some
months ago, made a statement of the result of
his experiment with the sugar cane last year,
offers to bet the skeptical editor of the Charles
ton Courier SSOO, that he will manufacture
from one acre, "planted with the Chinesetravi,
live hundred gallons of molasses, of a superior
article to any manufactured in the South, and
sold by the merchants in Coles county, in 1850
for seventy-five cents per gallon ; and further
that he will manufacture it at the cost of ten
cents per gallon.
