doof dt of winnebago Winne bago Lago paid his hib experience was that the small smail chinese cane was the best the cane is smaller but then it is fatter and c contains more saccharine matter prefers the main stalk for seed mr olmstead of wisconsin agreed with mr that the small chinese was the best mr huntington of winnebago has purchased and got no crop his ilia neighbor borgot got bome some and it succeeded he was not quite sure his was but bat he bought it tor for that ile he wag was under the impression at first that ripened first but his experience proved the contrary mr pardee preferred what is called ther small email african sorghum very idl JAL atile 10 it any 1 othe succeeded wi h bim him yet chehad bought what was called african and planted it alon aion alongside side of sorghum and in its it growth and maturity could see ro dlf dif derence Terence between ehlt that and sorg borg sorghum hurn and came to the tha that t be had been deceived in the purchase ard that it wab was all sor sorghum hum does not know but that the non nor bucce success ss of the this thib season was Avas owing owin uwin to flae th late s spring p r 1 el the seed did nt not ce ripen I 1 in n a longer season it might do better I 1 lie le thinks thinka the small sorghum is is what bome come call imabee mr cory of indiana asked if the ppe tp aker eaker in in speaking of the difference between

earlier lir tha the later tater makes the obest best syrup the yellow makes 9 rup but it t big has a vegetable taste we therefore like the late best lyest we should prefer Borg sorg sorghum hum but it is not so sure a crop mr cory sid that in indiana they gave preference to the large sorghum or CL cb need nete nese nete sugar cane they have not given much of a trial mr air moss mass of iowa has
