EXTRACTION After passing the scales, the cars containing the cane areswitched alongside the carrier which feeds the cane into themills. Before the cane is unloaded, however, samples are takenfrom each car and sent to the laboratory, where they are care-fully analyzed. The amount of sugar present is ascertained, aswell as the quantity and quality of the juice in the cane. It is,however, impossible to get a fair average sample of the cane inthis way, and therefore the efficiency of the mill work is deter-.
