three colors, red. green and gray. A

what 10 called candy In the United States. The
United States imports quantities OF cacao. choco-
late and confectionery from European countries.
and itself exports quantities. abroad. its markets
including every country in America. even those in
which cacao growing for export is an established
industry.
la may be prophesied that the time is coming
when the supply OF cacao will not equal the de-
mand While there are untouched areas In Latin
America in Africa and the East Indies. yet this
area is rather sharply defined and by nature linn
tied 1t is not so extensive as might be guessed
by merely looking at the map. for the climatic
factors Of temperature and humidity must be
favorable else the tree will not bear for COM
mercial profit. although within few miles OF sue
cessful plan tations. Probably America has larger
of virgin land than the rest OF the eartn
and will always hold the lead in production. This
should surely be the case II improved methods OF
cultivation and transportation increase the yield
and the profit from the crop
The area for production. as has been stat
ed, Is limited. while population Is growing at a
rapid rate, and in addition the value OF cacao Is
becoming recognized with greater clearness each
year. AS is the case therefore, with other great
staples Of the world-for cacao must now be con-
sdered an agricultural staple-like meat wheat,
corn and cotton, the price is slowly rising as a
larger food supply must be gathered for the
worlds needs BY the middle Of the century the
result may be expected that the supply will be as
proportionately meager in relation to population
it present appears to be ample.
Existence on a cacao plantation can be health
full and pleasant; 1t is tropical life. but the
roundngs may be made thoroughly agreeable, and
the reward can surely equal the amount OF energy
expended.
