| The big breweries of Mexico con-

: Since the United States has come
into possession of sugar-growing coun-
, tries the owners of large sugar plane-
( tations in Mexico are carefully study
! ing the home market. rs undoubtedly
7 their best customer will be found with
8 in the limits of this republic. Some
| of the planters, however, hold the OPT
, MON that the better quality of sugar
! cane in many port OBS of Mexico will
: secure to the national sugar industry
2 the interest of American investors, and
that therefore there is no cause for ap-
, preh ension. Mexico can at least stop
t the importation of the finer sugar by
| using better refneries. The new re-
8 inery at Chihuahua will do much to
| place better grade of sugar on the
, msrket.-Exchange.
