 SEED. Gov. J. H. Hammond, of South 

 Carolina, who raised the above seed, 

 testifies under date of Nov. 26, 1857, 

 that he does not recollect any variety 

 TEN of the Imphee which is inferior to 

 the Sorgho, while many varieties 

 have a larger stalk, yielded more juice 

 and marked a higher degree on the 

 VARIETIES, sacheromeier, and in a letter to the un- 

 dersigned of Jan. 13th, 1858, Gover- 

 nor Hammond says : " I think these 

 seed well worth distributing. They 

 BETTER produce a Sugar Cane at least equal 

 to the Sorgho in all respects and some 

 of them are twice the size. I am in- 

 clined to think we shall ultimately 

 THAN fi n< l several of the varieties (ripening 

 at different periods) superceding the 

 Sorgho altogether. I plant this year 

 60 acres of the Cane — of these, four 

 SORGHO ^ e pba-nted in Sorgho, and the re- 



mainder in Imphee." 

 A supplement to "The Soigho and Imphee"

 manufacture of Brown and White Sugar from 

 the Sorgho, will accompany the book.
