a, At the recent meeting or the Mississippi Val
Wy Cane growers association at st Louis, the
president Hon. Norman ]. Coleman, INDUCED
In the following prediction In his opening ad-
dress: When the fact is considered that we are
paying about slO0 900 annually to fmeign
powers for sugar, thus draining our country, OF
this large sum Of gold yearly, 1t SCI ms that
every true patriot ought to extend the most cor
dial welcome to an industry that promised u
make this commodity on our own soil and 10
keep this vast sum at home. distributed among
our own people. predict all this will be done,
and within the lifetime of those who now hear
me. have no hesitation In putting myself on
I
the next twenty -fve years this country will not
only make all the sugar 1t consumes, and OF the
very best quality, but it will export 1t in large
quantities, l know that some wiseacre.
l make them because no other
plant possesses SO many merits ard advantages
as q sugar-producing pant 1t adapts itself 10
our soil and climate from the British possessions
on the north TO the Gull of Mexico on the south,
and from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans. Its
chief rivals are the sugar beet and the true su
| gar zane of the south. The sugar beet has been
tried again and again in various parts of the
| United States with uniform failure, unless 10
| one or two instances In California. But even u
1t succeeded as well here as in Europe, It could
not compete with the northern cane. 1t is q
gross feeder, fearful exhauster of the soil, re,
quires a large amount Of hand
ing, hoeing, digging, harvesting, and or
| thas account If no other, could not compete
with sorgo, for labor is too expensive In thi,
country. Then II has no compensatiye returns
like sorgo In its crop of seed. And II is in this
respect that sorgo has advantages over all o shel
sugar. producing plants. II is this which wal
place Ii on the proud pedestal Of success. IL II
this which will make Il hot rival even OF the
ribbon cane Of the south.
