These estimates make no reference to the rum crop, it being assumed that the greater portion of the syrup and inolasses obtained from the dry clayed sugar would be reboiled and manufactured into sugar, and that the nett proceeds arising from any rum made would be required to cover contingencies omitted in these estates.

The foregoing will give a grand total of 31,994.
In estimating the probable return from these 2 crops, it is taken for granted that, on an average, an orlong of canes will yield 40 picals of wet sugar, an orang of rattoon canes 30 picals, and that the loss in claying will be 33 per cent. The produce of 300 orlongs will therefore be:-
