(1) BEARING in mind the importance of the sugar industry to the British Empire, more especially in its relation to sugar cane, it is not surprising, and distinctly comforting, to know that we are so well supplied at the present time with up-to-date literature on the subject. Mr. Deerr's treatise ranks among the most important, occupying as it has done for the last ten years—and if we include his first smaller work we may say seventeen years, not to mention his “Sugar House Control” published in 1900—a unique position, the subject being treated from both the theoretical and practical standpoints. The long experience of the author as a technologist I and an experimentalist had qualified him eminently for the task he undertook, while for the past ten years he has added still further to his previous extensive experience by being associated with the sugar industry in Cuba and with a sugar refinery in New York. The first edition of Mr. Deerr's treatise was published in 1911. The present edition covers 52 additional pages, each containing some 11 per cent. more words, in addition to which it has been completely rewritten. The reputation of the author is so well known and generally admitted that it is a guarantee at once that his task has been carried out with thoroughness. It is worthy of note, however, that his MS. has been submitted to the following authorities, to whom he acknowledges his thanks for help and criticism: Mr. J. Hamill, Dr. C. A. Browne, Dr. C. A. Barber, Dr. E. J. Butler, and Mr. J. P. Ogilvie. (1) Cane Sugar: A Textbook on the Agriculture of the Sugar Cane. The Manufacture of Cane Sugar, and the Analysis of Sugar-house Products.

Beet-Sugar Manufacture

This invention relates to beet sugar manufacture, and more particularly to the treatment of the raw beet juice by a calcium compound and carbon dioxide for clarifying the juice. It has been the practice for many years to produce lime and carbon dioxide for beet juice clarification by calcining...

The Growth of Beet-Sugar in England

LORD DENBIGFI'S motion in the House of Lords on Monday night, asking for a rebate on the present excise duty on any sugar made in this country from beets during a certain limited period, raises two interesting questions. On one of them—the desirability of the State incurring expenditure in order to establish a new industry in the country—we have little to say in these columns; we may be content to point out that it is possible for a Government department to teach the community businesses previously unappreciated. This very beet-sugar manufacture has been introduced into the United States by the action of their Department of Agriculture, with the result that the production has grown to 210,000 tons of sugar in 1904–5 as compared with 20,000 tons ten years earlier.
