A. aomewbat larger mill, made at the
Speedwell Iron Work, Morriatown, N. J.,
which wa louna on n i . st. aiku , iu

end, and a large cog-wneei, pinion ana cran
at the otber, all let in a strong iron frame.
Thi-nriMra!oot:tbe juice finely, but it re.
quire mora force than man-power to work it.
If attached to a bore-)power, by a large band,
wbeol, a tbey ar ndw being made, this is th
best mill wejuav soen at so low a pne as
75. For our .own nse, wo have calculated
that, in the endSit will be cheapest to pur
!. a tve-nlar suear-can mill 'of large site,
which can! be nsed the present year, and if
not wanted afterwards, lie sold to some one
roing into th business largely, at the South
if not North. We expert before closing this
number to receive a description of a rude mill
being erected in Ohio ir this arrive it Will
I ip clVHll at tinge 237.
It will not be difficult to pet up an extern-
pore wooden hand-press, win-re oiuy a lew
ditteiu or hundreds of cuiifs are to be tried,
r,.r the curiosity of tbe thing. We "t'gwt
the following : Take a round, sniooth, hard
wood log, 10 or !2 inchvs in diameter, and
raw off two rollers 10 inches long, set these
between two planks supported or kept apart
at each end by beavv block cut 10 Indies
long, to alio an eighth of an inch play Tor
the roilur. Hoop the rollers at each end
with strong iron bands, put on like wugon
tires, by the blacksmith, for axles, take an
iron rod 16 inches long and at least 1 J luches
iu diameter, and drive it firmly through the
ceulr of one of tho rollers previously bored
with an auger, letting the ends extend
through the planks to form gudgeons. Tut
a similar rod thrmigh the othur iolr. but
let it extend 5 or 6 feet above the frame, and
bond it over at right angles for a lever to
orn with. The rollers being put m place,
spike the plunks firmly upon the 10 inch
blocks at each end. To prevent the crank
rod from turning in the roller, wedge ft tightly,
and Uo put a cross key or pin through it, at
th points where it leaves the end of the
n.l .Irire these into the wood. Make,
a little duet in the lower plank to conduct the
juice to one side, and into a vessel underneath
To prevent the axles wearing iuto the wood,
uail two or three piece ol flat irou around
them upon the upper and lower sides of the
i.lntik framo. Any one, with a little assist
ttnee from a blacksmith, can construct a
simple apparatus like this ia a simile day, and
the whole cost need uot exceed five dollurs.
Wa recently conversed with Mr. A. htou
teliborough. of Dulla Co., Alabama., wha
lias beoa making syrap successfully tjii year,
uud we give hi experience, writing from
memory. He planted several acre- of Chi
nese Sugar Cane, iu drills, putting one serd
in a place. Kach seed produced one large
eeotral stalk with a number or suckers. The
suckers not being so .forward as the main
elalks. he commenced cutting out arid grind
iut tbe latter toward the close of August, or
a soou a the seed began to ripen. The
suckers are ta be pressed as tbey mature.
He c instructed two upright wooden rollers,
4 large sire, putting n iron band around
tb ends Ur them, airtl fitting with wooden
cogs to make them turn together. They
were set iuto strong frame, one or tbem
projecting up for the attachment of a lever
for driving by horse horse. With this mill
ke pressed out about "TO gallons of juice in the
fore part or the pay, which was put iuto a
120 gallon cauldron, or irou kettle, and boiled
tlown just as Ac would sop for maple sugar.
Tbe scum rising from time to time was skim
bI off, and when it had become clear be
added to it U or 15 tea-spooaruls or alaked
lime, fiist stirring it in water to tbe consist
ence or milk. The bulling was contiuned,
skiinuiiiig when needed, and with a slower
heat towards the cfose of the process. The
result was. 12 to 14 eallons of thick syrup ol
very superior quality from each 74 galluus of
juice.
This experiment, on rough scale, by on
without previous experience in sugar-making,
will be suecestiue to others in like ctrcum-
stances. Iu boiling down tbe juice, it is 1111
nortant to heal it soon after it is expressed.
The heat should bo kept just below boiling
aiutil most of the scum rise wneu it may be
ken off tho lime added as previously de-
cribed, and tbe boiling be continued us long
mt desired, removing from time "D time all
Mim that accumulate. Tbe syrup vill be
improved by letting it coo) after boiling down,
aay one-hall ; tueu siraiu 11 turuugu numcu
iloth : atir iu some white of eggs ; beat it
Again gradually and skim, and then complete

THE MOltrotll WUHU.

11 luring the same time the Managers have
