grinding, 12,240 gallons of sirup were produced from 560 tons of cane, 

 an average of nearly 22 gallons per ton, which is 2.4 gallons per ton 

 more than was obtained in 1904, although the cane of 1905 was 

 slightly less rich than that produced in the preceding year (1905, 

 11.16 per cent of sucrose; 1904, 11.65 per cent). The daily produc- 

 tion averaged 22 gallons of sirup more than was made in 1904. The 

 best 5-day run in 1905 gave 600 gallons of sirup more than the best 

 run of equal length in 1904 and produced the same number of gallons 

 per ton.
