GROWTH OF SUGAR IN MEXICO
Rapid Development in veracruz

Consul Canada, of Veracruz, furnish
es- an interesting article on the Gull
ti{ation and growth of sugar in certain
of the Mexican states. The values
given in the article are in Mexican
silver unless gold is stated. The value
of the Mexican silver dollar on July l
was 0498. Owing to the fluctuations
in silver values Consul Canada thinks
a reduction in United States currency
would be of no permanent value. By
estimating the values at bout one-halt
proximately just value. on an Amer
lean basis. would be reached. His let
ter follows:
The State of Veracruz has lately
developed into an important sugar.
producing territory. My report for the
fiscal year 1900-1901 states that Az tons
of sugar were exported from veracruz
in that year, the United States having
taken almost the entire output, less
than tons having gone to other coun-
tries. During the fiscal year 1S99-1900
only little over / ton was exported,
though the total production in the en-
tire Republic was estimated at $4,000
tons and sugar to the value of $685. 900
was imported. In 1912 not a single
shipment of sugar passed through this
port to foreign parts, but in 1923 the
business began to assume large propOr-
tions and $3.50 tons were exported, of
which amount ENGLAND took ho hJ1lk
the United States receiving only about
dne-eighth of the total. In 1904 every
sugar estate in the Republic was busily
engaged in grinding, turning out main
ly muscovado and centrifugal of SO de-
grees, for the English market. The es-
innate of the production of that year
was $1,000 tons, while the estimate of
the production in 1904-5 is 10000 tons.
The records at this consulate show that
in the September quarter of 1904 sugar
to the value of 1887 gold was shipped
to the United states, and in the Deem
Der quarter, 1904, sugar to the value of
$2450 gold. In the March quarter, 1905,
the value of sugar exported to the
United States reached the sum of $254,-
921 gold.
1t is evident that the sugar industry
of Mexico has attracted the attention
of many persons, for inquiries are fire.

Prohibition is proving n most

This is not only the opinion of

were opposed to the law. The

January show 70 cases before the

cases for the same month last
year, decrease of Sc per cent.
And who can estimate the dollars
that have been put into food,

25 to 100 per cent in their cash
trade. Prohibition is the best of
