8. cloudy. ninety-five canes, nine and five eighths gallons, 109° 
Beaumé, treated as above; also ground the ches of all the above 232 
feet, which produced four gallons, two quarts, and three half pints of 
juice, weighing 12° Beaumé, more acid ae the lower joints, treated 
it the same, boiled it to 288° Fahrenheit, and set it aside. In the 
morning I found a good crop of crystals, but the. mass thick and 
viscid, added three tablespoonfuls clear lime water, heated it to 
enable me to pour it into a mould; gross weight nine and a half

boiled on the 2d, as above stated) to 236° Fahrenheit, and added it to 
that boiled on the 2d; boiled the other half to 237° Fahrenheit 
potted it at 176° Fahrenheit, very handsomely crystallized, and very
