Ole
BOSTON STORE
ANNOUNCEMENT

It is needless to say that the people
of Norwich will be glad to welcome
Mr.. John Peters again this week, with
his fine display of Beautiful Oriental
Rugs, which he brings here each year.
Mr. Peters has won the confidence
of his customers by explaining many
points which are drawbacks to people
buying rugs and this should be cor.
sidered great privilege as it does
away with the anxiety many buyers
would have.
Remember that our prices are al
ways the lowest, and when you buy
a rug in our store your complete sat
isfaction is assured, also remember
that ordinary rugs are very plentiful
but these are selected ONE BY ONE,
and among them many odd sizes and
styles, also antique pieces which are
very hard to get at the present time,
and If they could be bought would
command enormous prices.
These Rugs must be seen to be APP
preciated and the best way is to come
and convince yourself of the fact.
The sale opens THIS MORNING on
second floor of Main street store.
Any Rugs which have not proven
satisfactory will be gladly exchanged.

SUGAR CONSUMPTION GROWS.
Demand on Homo Fields and Planta
tione increases.


Washington. Aug. 12.-Sugar con-
sumption OF the United States In the
fiscal year year just ended was larger
than ever before and was also drawn
more -ly than ever before from our
own and plantations In both
conti nited States and in the
roncc territories. The guam
tity of consumed in the country
during l. cal year just ended was.
according 10 estimates Of the bureau
| Of statistics Of the department OF
commerce and labor. 100000. 900
pounds. speaking in round terms or an
average Of eishty-two pounds per cap
ita. On only two occasions. 1908 and
| 1907, had the consumption crossed the
seven billion line. and on only four other
occasions, 1908, 1895. 1906 and 1903, had
the total passed the six billion line.
In supplying this largest quantity Of
sugar ever consumed in the United
States Hawaii. Porto Rico. and
the best fields OF the United
quantities for domestic consumption
than ever before. the Philippines con-
| tributed larger quantity than at any
other time since annexation, while the
contributions Of the cane fields of the
United Sttaes were slightly less than
| in several earlier years. The quantity
of sugar sent to the United States from
| the Hawaiian Islands in the fiscal year
1910 was I'LL, 000, 900 pounds. against
LOIS million in 1908, the former high
record year; from Porto Rico 569.00O,-
600 pounds, against 4SS.000.O0O
in 1909, the former high record year;
and from the Philippine Islands, 176.-
| 0OO, 900 pounds, a total larger than in
any year since 1890. The contribution
| of the beet sugar fields Of continental
United States to the consumption of
the fiscal year 1910 was 1,025, 600, 900
pounds against 100000 in the high
record year. 1907; while the cane sugar
product Of the United States contrib
uted 100000, 0O0pounds. against S2S. Geo.
900 in 1909, the former high record year.
AS a consequence Of this increased
supply from Hawaii. Porto Rico. the
Philippine Islands and the beet sugar
fields Of the United States. the quantity
Of sugar imported from foreign coun-
tries fell from 4106 100000 pounds in
the fiscal year, 1909, to 2.91S,00 900 In
1910.
From these figures it appears that
the sugar fields of continental United

the consumption in this country in the
fiscal year 1910. the noncontiguous ter
lritories of the United States about %
per cent, and foreign countries about 81

This reduction in the share which
| foreign countries are supplying of the
sugar consumed in the United States,
from an average of about Is per cent
prior to 1900 down to little more than
! so per cent at the present time, is due
in part to an increase in the produc-
ton Of beet sugar in the United States
and In part to increased contributions
