Show i P sugar mai wal MADE IN unah UTAH UrA 11 WE wid have received from i ls sanpete county a box containing a quantity ottaw of raw sugar manufactured thi season beason at that place by C A madsen co it la Is perhaps the first really merchantable sugar produced in this territory y it idof a light brown r 4 ia Is full of life I Is very sweet bub bab bahs but has a slight sorghum flavor flavon examined under the lens this thia sugar appears to lie b e principally granulated having I 1 the qualities of sucrose pu crose pr or perfect cane cano sugar sagar and partly composed of glucose A the presence of salt in a small quantity not buffi sufficient clent to make maki e it unmarketable and due no doubt to thaB lightly saline properties of the water used in the process of manufacture ture it also contains a avery very minute portion jf of silica wo we understand that this sugar was made from the juice of the amber variety of sugar eane cane the cultivation of which has been frequently encouraged in thebo theto columns it la Is adapted for sweetening cake and other domestic uses though no nobe nofe for tea or coffee and aleo forthe tor for the manufacture of candy and some kinds binds of confectionery the company which has produced this very good article of sugar gachas has has haa only experimented on a small emall scale butyter butac bu tater ter the very gratifying success attending the first effort efforts will no doubt extend operations until the enterprise la Is of stif euf focient magnitude to aim at supply ing log the 0 tah tab markel market with one of the necessary articles to common comfort we have nop nos received particulars of the cost of manufacture or the price at which the sanpete sugar can be sold but we have no doubt in the world that utah can produce as a good an article as cau can be manufactured anywhere in the country from the amber sorghum oar boll soli is adapted to the growth of the cane in paying quantities and the freight tariff on imported sugar gives a margin to offset the higher price of labor that obtains here over wages proffesor barfoot Bar barf oat toot of the deseret museum suggests the use of water condensed from steam in the future operations of the gunnison sugar works which will thus be purged of its saline properties and being chemically pure the granulation of the sugar would be made more perfect the presence of the chlorides being inimical to the process ea another t plan which could be adopted for f 0 r the present small works in sanpete San pete is the storing ot at ice in blocks during the winter in sufficient quantities for next quantities for next seasons operations the water thus obtained would be free from the chlorides and answer the sarie end as the condensed water we hope the example of mad madsen sen aco asco co will be followed by others jn in this territory the seed of the amber should be obtained in time and preparations made for the cultivation ti of the cane then arrangements can be made mado tor for procuring the necessary apparatus and the manufacture of sugar in theall the rall fall we have furnished our readers with particulars of the stewart process of mak making ng sugar from cane and corn eta stalks etalka ks and we now append a corn and we now append a description deseri ti on of the manner of working up borgh um in alato to amram r J jool o aaa o w by arc M

and in a few minutes draw off if any porus alum is at hand one pint to a hundred gallons may be here added to lighten the color be here added to lighten the color if it not a little less lime should

into a tank through a fine strainer when through with the days work I 1 start my copper finishing pan and draw the athin syrup with swing wing a pipe from the th tank aa as fast as needed this finishing pan is four feet long by SO 30 inches wide seven inches deep and the sides flaring out 45 degrees it is fastened with a pair of strap hinges binges on one side of the furnace to fencing strips driven into the ground and fasten ed to the furnace in this pan nan I 1 reduce red aceto to it for syrup or degrees for sugar according to hedges thermometer I 1 boil boll rapidly in this at

on a wooden track where wanted the process will make sugar from the early amber where nothing else olee is at hand of course the belcher compound makes a better transparent syrup and finer liner flavor it seems lo 10 take t a ke the th a place of the bone coal filter it t Is not strictly speaking a gran gnan granular granulating uial ulal compound for fot there Is no buchi buch thing it is the peculiarity of the early amber that thai it will naturally granulate with skillful working with lime alone how many of our out varieties will do this I 1 am not yet abler abla to tell in using the bel cher compound I 1 uba use one ono fifth less lime and nive five pinta pints of the cona eom compound to gallons gallon 11 of juice either elther right after the lime or in the defecated juice jaice I 1 have not as yet jet found much difference I 1 forgot to sta tein cutting early amber cane to cut close to the ground and top any an where clear of the seed cut when fully work up as soon as cut belchers compound referred to and claimed by some sugar makers to be equal to or better than prof Ste patent solution B is composed of about three parts of porous alum and two parts of sal eal is used in the tho proportion of three pints of compound to 60 gallons of fluid the foregoing may be of use to our sanpete friends whom we congratulate on their enterprise and success we hope to hear of
