\ The prospect sof, sa return of perma- hently peaceful conditions in the Phil. ippines and the present existence of conditions in Porto Rico and Hawaii fAvcrableeto American producing and commercial enterprises lends addi- tionsl ihferest some figures just compiled by the treasury bureau of statistics regarding the coffee con 'snmption of the United States and of the world. The people offhe United States are sending out of the country more than million dollars week in payment for coffee cons,med in this country, all of which could be readily produced in Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippine islands, which have al- ready shown their ability to produce coffee of high grade commanding high prices in the markets of the world. Porto Rican coffee has long been looked upon as of high grade, and for many years has comma nded high prices in the markets of Europe. and the developments of coffeeeulture in Hawaii during the past few years V quality of coffee produced and the prices realized. In the Philippines the product is of high grade, and he fact that in physical conditions and eli mate the islands are very similar to those of Java. the greatest coffee pro
 ducing islands of the world, suggests great possibilities to those who desire to see American money expended un- der the American flag. The fact that the United States is by far the great
 est coffee-consuming country of the world and is steadily increasing her consumption further suggests that American capital and energy may turn their atteur ion to this promising field now opened in the islands where American enterprise can safely enter upon business undertakings.
