Youngman’s Patent. Sorghum Evaporator 
ami Refiner removes all of the dis¬ 
agreeable Sorghum Flavor. 
IT IS THE ONLY PERFECT EVAPORATOR. 
The proprieior8 of the above Evaporator call the atten¬ 
tion of the public 1o the superior merits of this invention. 
They claim that it is tlie best machine for making sorghum 
syrup and sugar, maple sugar, beet sugar, anti other sim¬ 
ilar products. 
It has the following 1 Excellencies, viz.: 
Excellencies.— 1. It is the cheapest Evaporator ever 
made, requiring no arch, brick work, or other expenses after 
it leaves the manufacturer’s hand. Any person who can 
afford to buy a lumber wagon, can buy one of these Evap¬ 
orators. 
2. It will do more evaporating, and with less fuel, in a 
day, than any other Evaporator, with the same capacity of 
pan. 
3. It will make better syrup from sorglinm cane juice than 
an}'other Evaporator invented, removing, as it does, all of 
the well-known disagreeable sorghum flavor. 
4. It is remarkably easy to manage, ns by a well-arranged 
system of dampers, the beat can be graduated to any de¬ 
gree under the pans, instantly. One man can work the 
Evaporator—with ease. 
G. It is portable, and may be lifted into a wagon by two 
or three men, without difficulty, and lienee can be trans¬ 
ported from farm to farm, or from field to field, with the 
greatest facility. 
Tlie foregoing arc points of excellence which sorghum 
growers will appreciate, and in support of them we append 
the following high testimony. 
Testimony.— 1 “* * The great objection to the use of 
sorghum syrup has heretofore been its characteristic un¬ 
pleasant flavor. But this flavor seemed to be entirely re¬ 
moved by your process, and the syrup assimilated in taste to 
the best sugar-house syrup. * *”—. Letter from lion. Isaac 
Newton, Commissioner of Agriculture, dated May 3d, 1807. 
“* * Youngntan’s Evaporator now stands without a suc¬ 
cessful rival. It has been approved by the most reliable 
authorities, and seems to be almost a national blessing. * * 
From the finishing pan the syrup flows in a continuous 
stream, perfectly purified and refined from all mucilaginous, 
gummy, and objectionable substances, and equal to the best 
of refined syrups. It is then in tlie best possible state for 
granulation, being entirely freed from glucose. This .Evap¬ 
orator is very light and portable, as it can be easily lifted 
into a lumber wagon and conveyed from place to place. 
The capacity of the machine is from eight to ten gallons 
per hour, and the consumption of wood is no more than an 
old-fashioned box stove.”— Extract from article on Improved 
Farm Implements in the Agricultural Report of the Patent 
Of ice for the year 1866. 
*.♦* * F r0 m the last pan, called ‘the finisher,’ the liquid 
comes out a most delicious syrup, pure as red-clover honey, 
and as free from tlie disagreeable vegetable taste as maple 
syrup. * * * This machine has every excellent characteristic 
to recommend it. Every part is most efficient, and one man 
can make one hundred gallons of syrup in one day with a 
small quantity of fuel. It is compact, will last almost a life¬ 
time with proper care, and can be employed for making 
maple sugar, or maple syrup, or beet sugar, quite as satis¬ 
factorily as it can be used when making sorghum syrup. ** ” 
—Agricultural Editor Neio York Times , Weekly Edition, 
Sept. 10. 1867. 
“The Committee appointed by tlie Farmers’ Club to ex¬ 
amine Youngman’s Evaporator desire to report that they 
went to Baltimore and there supervised an experiment with 
the above-named Evaporator: and it affords them satisfac¬ 
tion to report to the American Institute, that the operation 
of this new Evaporator exceeded their highest expectation. 
* * The Committee were also well pleased with its portabil¬ 
ity. * * * The small quantity of fuel required to make fifty 
gallons of syrup is also an economical item. * * * The 
great simplicity and durability of every part of this device 
constitute another point of pre-eminent importance in the 
estimation of the Committee. * * *”■— Extracts from report 
of Committee of Farmers ’ Club of American Institute to 
meeting of Club held in October , 1867. 
‘‘I planted about three-fourths of an acre of cane, which 
was manufactured by Youngman’s Evaporator. The cane 
was only of medium quality. The produ'ct was 128 gallons of 
syrup; two loads of fodder, equal to the best timothy hay, 
and a full two-horse load of seed, which for cal tie feed is 
not excelled. The quality of the best syrup is equal to the 
best syrup of commerce, while the inferior is equal to the 
best baking molasses.”— Rev. Joseph Stevens, Jersey Shore,Pa. 
Success.— Although this Evaporator Jins just been intro¬ 
duced, it has already taken the first premium at six State 
Fairs, and lias taken the first premium over every other 
Evaporator wherever exhibited. 
Premiums.—During the year 1868, the proprietors of 
this Evaporator for the purpose of inducing a wide-spread 
trial of its merits, will present to every purchaser the fol¬ 
lowing three articles as a premium, viz.: A beautiful Silver- 
Plated Cake-Basket, Silver-Plated Syrup Cup, and Silver- 
Plated Butter-Dish. All of these articles are substantially 
made and of elegant design. They will be sent with the 
Evaporator securely packed, free of charge, to every pur¬ 
chaser on receipt of the price of the Evaporator. Where 
Evaporators are sent, price to be paid on delivery. These 
premiums will be sent as. soon as the undersigned are in¬ 
formed that the Evaporators have been paid for. 
Price.—The price of the Evaporator complete is §209. 
It will be sent to any address on receipt of the price. A 
draft on New York City to the order of the General Agents, 
or on Baltimore, to the order of the manufacturers, is the 
best method of payment. Machines will also be sent to 
any address, price to be collected on delivery, on receipt of 
satisfactory assurances by the undersigned of the responsi¬ 
bility of the parties ordering. 
Full and explicit directions sent with each Evaporator. 
Syrup made on this Evaporator is worth from twenty-five 
to fifty cents per gallon more than that made on any oilier.
