Beets Are Largely Supplanting
Cane, the Former Now Equal
ing 81 Per Cent.
INCREASE HAS BEEN ENORMOUS
The Per Capita Consumption in
the United States Has Grown
to More Than Sixty
Eight Pounds.

Washington, March z3-"The Worlds Sug-
| ar Production and Consumption. 1s0o-1sOJ'
Is the title Of monograph just issued by
the Treasury Bureau Of Statistics. 1t dis
cusses the sugar production and consump-
tion Of the world during the last century
and especially during the last half cen
tury, in which the burden Of sugar produc-
ton has been transferred from cane to the
sugar beet and in which the world has So
largely increased its consumption of sugar.
The worlds sugar production has
grown from 10000 tons In 1s4e to
s.s0e.oco tons in 1900. During the same
period the worlds population has grown,
according to the best estimates. from 95O,-
oocoO to about l.5oo. 100000 Thus. sugar pro-
duction has increased about $50 per cent
while the population. was increasing but
about 80 per cent.
Consumption of Sugar.
Coming nearer home and considering the
United States alone II is found that the
consumption Of sugar. which in 1850 was
only 2 pounds per capita. was In 1901 over
s. pounds per capita. One especially strik-
ing fact shown by the statistics presented in
this study Is the rapidly increasing propor-
ton OF the worlds enlarged sugar consurp-
tion which Is supplied BY beets. According
to the figures presented by this study,
beets. which supplied in 1s4o less than per
cent OF the world '1neugar. in 1900 supplied
81 per cent Of hevkreatly increased con-
sumption, while cane, which then supplied
ton. now supplies but g per cent. Stated in
quantities. 1t may be said that the world .
cane sugar supply has grown from 1,l0oO0o
crease OF 1eo per cent. while that Of beets
has grown from 5000 tons In 1s40 to 6s60O0o
tons In 1900. an increase Of IL 800 per cent
Pf001eti0n From Cane.
The figures above quoted include that Dor

not include the large quantities OF cane
sugar produced in India and China exclu-
siyely Tor home consumption. and in a con-
siderable number Of the tropical countries
does not include that portion of the sugar
consumed at home. Even II these figures of
csne-sugar production for home consump-
tfon were obtainable. the production from
beets would still show a much more rapid
growth during the last half century than
that from cane. This. apparently. is due to
two great causes: ID the elimination Of
slavery in the tropics. the seat OF the prin-
cipal sugar production: and q, the intelli-
gent study Of and Government aid to the
production OF beet sugar In the temperate
zone. especially in European countries

Cold Wave Sweeping Across
Country From Alberta.

The weather bureau today predicts
cold wave that will sweep over Kansas
tonight and Sunday.
The forecast sent out this morning
was Snow and cold wave tonight.
Sunday partly cloudy and colder. Brisk
to high northerly winds" The mini
mum temperatures throughout the
northwest, which have ranged from Is
to 25 degrees below zero for nearly a
week, have not moderated nor increased
materially. Observer Jennings explains
the coming of the cold wave as fol-
lows: ''The temperatures have not
changed in the northwest, but there are
two low barometers with rise be-
tween which passed over Montana, and
yesterday one extended along the east
ern slope of the Rocky mountains and
the other extended along the Missis-
sippi river There is a high barometer
following these low barometers from
Alberta, and will bring the cold wave
The state is covered with from two to
six inches of snow, and the wheat will
not suffer from the cold.''
The temperature this morning was
much higher than for several days.
The minimum was q, at 10 o'clock. The
wind this morning was from the north,
blowing 10 miles an hour. The hourly
temperatures recorded by the govern
n ent thermometer today were as fol-
lows.
