On Monday Mr. Calvin Mills, one of the best farmers of township, brought the a large of West sugar and also a package of sugar made out some of this cane. Mr. Mills obtained a seeding of the cane three years ago and has since been a small crop of it each year. He says that taking his yield as an mate one acre in this cane will produce gallons of syrup, I three fourths of which can be converted into sugar. We were surprised to see that such ex- sugar could be made right in Pitt county. With such results made by Mr. Mills, we think if all our farmers would put in a small crop of this cane they would find it to pay a long ways than cotton. J. B- CHERRY. J. R. MOTE. J. G.
