All suited for Coffee Culture.

The islands in which coffee can be
successfully grown are Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines. Porto Rican
coffee, in the markets where il is well
known, is regarded as the best in the
world, and IL is the conclusion of the
bureau Of statistics that when coffee
plantations have been developed in
the Philippines and Hawaii all of the
one million dollars OF more can be ex-
pended among the inhabitants of our
own islands. Porto Rcan coffee has
long commanded high prices in Eu-
ropean markets, though IL has been
comparatively little known in the
United States. Development of coffee
culture in Hawaii during the last few
years has been very satisfactory in
the quality produced and the prices
realized. In the Philippines the prod
uct is of high grade.
Greatest Coffee Consuming Country.
The fact that the United States is
by far the greatest coffee-consuming
country end is steadily increasing her
consumption, suggests that American
capital and energy may turn their at
tention to the promising field now
opened in the islands.
american coffee importations dur
ing the nine months ending with
March, 1901, amounted TO 6l7,344, 900
pounds. with a value of So, 900, a
sum nearly $5,0O0,O0O in excess of the
value of the coffee imports of the
same months of the preceding fiscal
year, indicating that for the full fiscal
year the total value of the coffee inn
ported into the nUited States will be
about 100000, 600
