Plant in warm corn soil, rather poor than rich, or at least manure with mineral ^fertilizers, as ashes, bone meal, potassic manures, etc., in drills 3K feet apart, to let the sunlight reach the" stalks and lower leaves to perfect the devel- opment of sugar. To plant cane seed for sugar, sow four or five pounds of seed to the acre; if for fodder, thirty pounds to the Early Amber Cane.
