On page 83 of the last number of the Gardeners' Monthly there is a paragraph from the Ag-riculttirist relative to sugar making in the country, which does not include any reference to a large and successful establishment in Cape May county, New-Jersey. I take the liberty to call your attention to the last annual report of the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station, a copy of which I have mailed to your address. Possibly the account of this success in New Jersey may be of interest to you and your readers.

Another matter. Would it not be well to have the Japanese persimmon tested in Cape May county? I write of this, as I think it might be well to have it tried there. And if I can find some one willing to give it a fair trial then shall write you, as I presume.
