A HEAVY DECREASE.
There has been a decrease of over
$50 900 in the amount collected for chew
ing and smoking tobacco which is attrib-
uted to the operation of the new law
permitting the sale of tobacco I'm hand
by farmers and retail dealers.
In cigars, cigarettes and snuffs there
has been an increase Of receipts
Nearly $500, 600 more gallons of whisky
have been withdrawn from bond
during the year than last year. Most of
it was Bourbon whisky, and the reason
for its withdrawal was that the bonded
period had expired and efforts to obtain
an extension failed.
SUGAR AND THE BOUNTY.
In regard to sugar production the com
missioner says: The operation of the
law in relation to the bounty on sugar
has had the effect. so far as cane sugary
is concerned, to increase the production
and to lessen the number of sugar fac
tories, or licensed producers.
In the district of Louisiana, where
cane sugar is principally made, there
were, during the first season in which the
law was in operation, that of 1912, COZ
producers licensed to manufacture sugar
and the product of that period aggregated
357, S75, So pounds.
The number of producers licensed
during the season Of 1S92-93 was SIS, and
the amount of sugar produced aggregated
AS, S51 $40 pounds, an increase of 81 1882. =
2S3 pounds, Notwithstanding a reduction
of over IL per cent in the number of
licensed producers.
IMPROVED MACHINERY.
1t is estimated that s., 900 900 have been
invested in Louisiana in improved ma
chinery for making sugar since the be
ginning of the present year, the full effect
of which will not have been seen and APP
preciated until the conclusion of the com
ing season. These changes in the ma
chinery of the sugar factories result in
more economical manufacture of sugar,
and indicate a gradual departure from
the primitive and more wasteful methods
formerly i'll use
The production of beet sugar in the
states of California and Nebraska and the
