* * * A general impression has prevailed that sugar could not be made to advantage unless a great capital is invested; but experience abundantly proves that a small capital may be as profitably employed in the culture of cane as in any other product. In an article on sugar cane in the new American Encyclopedia the climatic disadvantages attending the cultivation of the sugar cane in Louisiana are stated as follows: Yet, the climate of Louisiana itself is rather north of that best suited to the ...plant, the cane being frequently killed by the frost after starting in the spring, and at ma- turity in the latter part of October and in November, the effect of which is to materi- ally diminish its production of sugar. In 1857, injurious frosts thus occurred in April as late as the 22d, and on the 19th and 20th of November. In November, 1859, the cold was very severe on the 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th, in all parts of Louisiana, the thermometer on the 14th standing at 25 F. At New Orleans, and thick ice being formed in the most southern parishes.
