Toungman's Patent Sorghum Evaporator 
and Refiner removes all of the dis- 
agreeable Sorghum Flavor. 
IT IS THE ONLY PERFECT EVAPORATOR. 
The proprietors of the above Evaporator call the atten- 
tion of the public lo the superior merits of this invention. 
Thev claim that it is the. b c «t machine for making sorghum 
*tjritp ami sugar, maple sugar, beet sugar, and other sim- 
ilar products. 
It has the following Excellencies, viz. : 
afford to buy a lumber i 
orators. 
2. It will do more evaporating, and with less fuel, in a 
day, tliau anv other Evaporator, with the same capacity of 
pan. 
3. It will make better svrnp from sorghum cane juice than 
nnv other Evaporator Invented, removing, as it docs, all of 
the well-known disagreeable sorghum flavor. 
4. Tt is remarkably easy to manage, as lw a well-arranged 
svstem of dampers, the heat eau be graduated to anv de- 
cree under the pans, instantly. One man can work the 
Evaporator— with ease. 
6. It is portable, and mav he lifted into a wagon by two 
or three men. without difficulty, and hence can be trans- 
ported from farm to farm, or from field to field, with tho 
greatest facility. 
The foregoing are points of excellence which sorghum 
growers will appreciate, and in support of them wc append 
the following high testimony. 
Testimony.— " ■ * The great objection to the use of 
soighnm syrup has heretofore been its characteristic un- 
pleasant flavor. But this flavor seemed to he entirclvrc- 
movrd hv vour process, nnd the svni[> :i--i!ni!:ited In taste to 
the best sizar-lions-' svnin. ***'— Letter from Han. /mac 
JCetcto?i, Commissioner of Agriculture, dated May 34 1867. 
** • * Youngman's Evaporator now stands without a suc- 
cessful rival. It has been approved by the most reliable 
authorities, and seems to he almost a national blessing. * * 
From the finishing pan the svnip flows in a continuous 
stream, perfectlv purified and re lined from all mucilaginous, 
giim m v, and objectionable suhstanceg, and equal to the best 
of refined syrups. It is then in the best possible state for 
granulation, being entirelv freed from glucose. This Evap- 
orator is vcrv light and portable, as it can be easily lifted 
Into a lumber wagon and conveyed from place to place. 
The rapacitv of the machine is from ei^rht to ten gallons 
per hour, and the consnmpt ( on of wood is no more than an 
old-fhslih 
Farm Tr . 
Office fm- the year 1SCG. 
•** * From the last pan, called 'the finisher.' the liquid 
comes out a most delicious syrup, pure as red-clover honey, 
and as free from the disagreeable vegetable taste as maple 
svrnp. • • * Tins machine has every excellent characteristic 
to recommend it. Even* part is most efficient, and one man 
can make one hundred gallons of syrup in one day with a 
small quantity ot fuel. It is compact, will last almost a life- 
time with proper care, and can be employed for making 
maple sugar, or maple syrun. or beet sugar, quite as satis- 
factorily ns it can be used when making soighnm svrnp. ** "

"The Committee appointed by the Farmers' Club to ex- 
amine Younsman's Evaporator desire to report that thev 
went to Baltimore and there supervised an experiment with 
the above-named Evaporator; and it a fiords them satisfac- 
tion to report to the American Institute, that the operation 
of this new Evaporator exceedcl their hiizhi-st expectation. 
* * The Committee were also well pleased with its portabil- 
ity. * • * The small quantity of fuel required to make fifty 
gallons of svrnp is also an economical item. * " * The. 
great simplicity and durability of every part of this device 
constitute another point of pre-eminent Importance in tho 
estimation of the. Committee. * * *"— Extracts from report 
of Committee of Farmers' Club of American Jnstitutc to 
meeting «f Club held tn October, 1ST,?. 
'•I planted about three-fourths of an acre of enne. which 
was manufactured bv Youugm m's Evaporator. The cane 
w*as onlv of medium quality. The prnduclwas 12S gallonsof 
svrnp ; two loads of fodder, equal to the best timothy ha v. 
and a full two-horse load of seed, which for cattle feed "is 
not excelled. The quality of the best svrnp is equal to Ihc 
best svrnp of commerce, while the interior is rqu d to the 
best baking molasses."— Rer. Joseph S'rr, u^Jrrsr,: Shore, Pa.
