Cane sugar; a textbook on the agriculture of the sugar cane, the manufacture of cane sugar, and the analysis of sugar-house products . ^ cylinder condensation, a source of loss which is probably alittle less (as a percentage of the steam used) in the turbine than in thereciprocating engine. There are, however, a number of advantages connected with electricdrive, which may be briefly summarized :—. Fig. i: 1. Absence of all oil in the exhaust. 2. Compactness of plant and decreased cost of foundations. 3. More extended control by means of recording watt-meters, this beingpossible only with electric drive. In certain plants individual motor drive has been installed for eachunit of a train of mills. The executive can detect at once any variationfrom the proper amount of power taken by an}^ unit of a train, and by meansof the recording instruments can reconstruct the operation of the plantover any period. It is this opportunity for a complete control that appealsto the writer as the great advantage of the electric reduction gear.
