SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY.
The sugar beet Industry OF the world
has gone forward during the last sixty
years with giant strides. The rapidly
Increasing share OF the worlds sugar
consumption, which is supplied from
sugar bcets. ls pointed out by publ.
cation In the Monthly Summary Of
Commerce and Finance" just Issued
by the Treasury Bureau OF Statistics
Under the head OF The Worlds Sugar
crop OF 1g00." is IL shown that the total
beet sugar production OF that year
was 5.ybO,u00 tons, and the cane sugar
crop 2,s5u,OO0 tons, more than two.
thirds OF the worlds sugar supply
thus being produced from beets. In
this latter cane sugar crop Hawaii
ranks fourth, being preceded only by
Java, Cuba, and Louisiana.
Following this IL a table showing the
cane and beet sugar production In each
decennial year, beginning with lSsO,
and the percentage which these rival
sugar plants have in supplying the su-
gar consumption OF the world. This
table shows that in 1910 beets supplied
less than per cent OF the worlds
sugar consumption; by 1850 they sup
piled over IA per cent; by 1870, "a per
cent; by $780, over 63 per cent and in
1900, 61.1 per cent
The growth of sugar consumption Is
also shown in "a striking manner. In
1910 the total sugar crop of the world
Nyn only 4 1E0 OOO In 1S7O 9 i1G
tons; in 1890, 100000 tons, and in 1900,
s, 800 900 tons. The worlds population
has not more than doubled during the
sixty years, probably not so much; yet
its consumption of sugar Is today fully
eight times as much as In 1910.
The article in question begins with
statement from the London Statlst
to the effect that but single factory
In all the United Kingdom now reiines
cane sugar, all the others being ex-
clusively occupied in preparing for the
market the raw product of the beet
farms of Germany. France, Austria
and Russia.
The following is the estimate of the
beet sugar crop for the year ended

WILL TAI SUGAR.

LONDON, April 1S.-The exceptional
interest taken in this years budget
statement was evidenced by the crowded
condition of the House OF Commons when
1t reassembled today The attendance
of members was unusually large, while
the appearance of the galleries testified
to the deep interest of the public in the
fresh taxation proposals required to meet
the expenditure for 1912, which, accord
ing to a Parliamentary paper issued this
afternoon, total GlS7,602 ,OO0, inclusive of
the war charges, this being an increase
of G32, ,S0l 900 for the year.
The national balance sheet for l900-0l,
as shown by the same paper, stands as
follows: Revenue, Gl30, $4,000; expendi-
tUres, ElS5, 592 600, net deficit, f5S, ,207, 600
The proposal for tax on sugar is stat
ed as follows:

action of Captain Brokaw, of the Fear
less, considerable damage would have
been done to the steamer Hanalei, with
which the Willard collided. The ship
showed a decided longing to go on the
reef at one time, and at another she
was evidently desirous of taking a trip
up Fort street.
Captain Quick, the master of the
Henry Willard, had trouble with the
members of the crew early on Saturday.
1t seems that the men did not want to
go to sea with one of the mates who
had been taken aboard after the crew
had signed on. The men proceeded to
get thoroughly drunk over the matter
and, about o'clock, when the Fearless
| took the ship from the railway wharf,
the crew was in a condition to make
trouble.
Captain Brokaw noticed that the ship
acted very queerly, and did not steer
well, so he started to give her a sheer
to starboard, signalling to Captain
Quick, at the same time, to put his
wheel over.
Captain Quick gave the order to the
man at the Wheel but the order was not
obeyed, and the ship kept on her way
straight for the steamer Hanalei. which
was at the Inter-Island wharf
Brokaw saw that collision was
about to occur. and succeeded in
swinging the Wizards bow a little. not
enough, however, to miss the Hanale
entirely. The big ships jlbboom struck
the steamer glancins blow, swapping
off like pipe-stem, although the Hama
lei was not harmed In the least. The
rigging of the Wizards jbboom hung
in tangled mass as the big vessel
was sheered off and started for the
light house.
Somebody on the Willard made the at
tempt to let go on the port anchor; as
good luck would have 1t, however. this
proved unsuccessful, otherwise the VII
lard would probably have piled up on
the reef near the light house.
The Fearless was working like a
whole fleet of tugs, and finally got the
ship out Of all danger and, Captain
Quick taking the wheel, she was got
ten out of the harbor without further
accident.
The Willard was anchored off the bell
buoy, whore she lies until her jlbboom
has been repaired and her crew sobered
up.

God Supplies,

There would be much less complain
ing in this world If the fact were al
ways borne u mind that God supplies
our real, not our imaginary, needs. His
supplies are to meet our necessities,
not our wishes. Sometimes they are in
direct opposition to our desires. Con-
sidering their character. their circum-
stances, their high destiny, God so
deals with His people that He could not
possibly deal with them more bountl-
fully or more munificently. "No good
thing'-that is, no good thing for them
twill He withhold from them" The
representations God has given of Him.
self are exactly adapted to the various
circumstances and conditions of His
people. He is fullness of supply to the
poor, strength to the weak, wisdom
and knowledge to the ignorant. Their
inability is met by His sufficiuhcy, their
guilt by His mercy, their unworthiness
by His grace.-Christian Intelligencer
