The work Is a volume of 100 pages, con- talning & careful history of corn and sorghum as sugar-plants, with a description of machinery aud process of manufacturing. The discovery cuables the farmer to undertake the manufac- ture of sugar from Lis own cornstalks without tha vast expenditure, neccssary in the produce tion ol sugar from sugar-cane. The inventor, F.

Mr. Btewart, the {uveator of the process, says the subject itself has a claim upon the attention of the American people of no ordinary kind. The cffoct of practical adoption of these truths will be to REVOLUTIONIZE SUGATL PRODUCTION in this country, to enhanco almost boyond esti- wnte the value of Indian corn and sorghum, to carry the MNme of avnllable sugar-produc- ing territory from tho Gulf Coast to the ' fortieth paralle), to save tho country $100,000,000, now. annually expond- od for foreign sugar, and to asslst by the rise of 8 new and perianent fndustry fn the solutfon of a much-vexed question by giving romunera- tive labor on curn-lands of tho Woest - to a grest number of the unemployed.
