Gov. J. H. Hammond, of South Carolina, 
who raised the above seed testifies under date 
of Nov. 26, 1867, that he does not recollect any 
variety of the Imphee which is inferior to the 
Sorgho, wuile many varieties have a larger 
stalk, yielded more juice and marked a higher de¬ 
gree on the sacherometer. and in a letter to the 
undersigned of Jan. 13th, 1858, Gov. Hammond 
says : “ I think these seed well worth distrib¬ 
uting. Ihey produce a Sugar Cane at least 
equal to the Sorgho in all respects and some of 
them are twice the size. I am inclined to 
think we shall ultimately find several of the 
varieties (ripening at different periods) super- 
ceding the Sorgho altogether. I plant this year 
60 acres of the Cane—of these four will be 
planted in Sorgho and the remainder in 
Imphee.” 
A supplement to “ The Sorgho and Imphee” containing the 
American experiments of 1857. with J. S. Loveiings statement 
of his successful manufacture of Brown and White Sugar from 
the Sorgho, will accompany the Book.
