SUGAR SUPPLY AND CONSUMPTION.

Sugar consumption in the United States in the calendar year
1911 exceeded that of any earlier year
The oa quantity consumed in continental United States was
according to the latest estimate Of the bureau of statistics de-
pamen of and labor 1910 million pounds
age OF 88 pounds per CAPITA against the former high record
Of 81,19 pounds per capita in the fiscal year 1907
These figures are official so far as relates to the quantity
brought into continental United States during the calendar year
from Hawaia Porto Rico the Philippines and from foreign
countries
To this the bureau has added the latest estimates sugar pro
duced the country during 1911 and by sbtracng the Off
ca figures Of exports from the grand total of imports and do
nestle production obtain total of 1910 million pounds pac
tcay 81 pounds per capita the indicated consumption Of the
calendar year 1911
Ten years ago. in the fiscal year 1901 the indicated consump-
ton was billion pounds or 72 pounds per CAPITA twenty
thirty years ago. in 1881 2h billion pounds or 43 pounds per
capita and forty years ago. in 1871 billion pounds 36h
pounds per capita.
This very large total consumption of sugar the country in
1911 accompanied unusually heavy production both in con
mental United States and its producing islands Hawaii
Porto Rico and the Philippines.
The quantity brought from Hawaii Porto Rico and the Phil
ppnes in 1911 exceeded each that Of earlier year and
the estimated production of beet in the country in 1911
was the largest on record though that OF sugar slightly
below the average Of recent years.
While the quantity Of sugar imported from foreign countries
In 1911 fell somewhat below the figures Of 1910 the aggregate
Of the production in continental United States production in the
noncontguou territories and imports from foreign countries
exceeds that Of any earlier while the quantity exported
was smaller than in the Immediately preceding year.
The import valuation Of the sugar brought from foreign coun
tries in 1911 was speaking in round terms 80 million dollars
from the n0ncontgous territories rs million and the estimated
value Of that produced in continental United States 80 million
dollars
The bureau of statistics estimates the duty paid on sugar inn
ported from foreign countries 1911 at 30 million dollars
One striking fact which to the surface study of sugar
consumption in the United States found in comparison of
production and growth in production Of cane and Of beet sugar
spectively
While exact figures Of domestic production in 1911 have not
yet been completed the latest and best available estimate puts
the production OF beet 106 million pounds and that of
cane at 200 million pounds the production of beet sugar
thus exceeding that of cane by than so per cent
Prior 1907 the production of beet sugar great
as that Of cane sugar.

REFUSE TO
MARRY THEM

The Salem Ministerial Association
Monday discussed the marriage of d.
vorced persons, and, as a result, passed
the following resolutions:
Whereas, Easy divorce and easy re-
marriage are crying evils of our time
and evils which we, as ministers, are
called upon to face; and
Whereas, It seems advisable to
have some common rule of action in
dealing with these cases, therefore be
It
Resolved, That we seek to be as
careful as we may and not marry
couples when it is probable lifelong
union will not result
"Resolved, That we regard 1t as a
matter Of ministerial courtesy to re-
fuse to marry those whom we know
other pastors, for sufficient reason,
have refused to marry.
Resolved, That we refuse to re-
marry during the lifetime of the other
party any one known by us to have
been divorced for infidelity, except
that we will re-marry divorced people
who seek to be reunited.
Resolved That we ask the next leg
islature to pass law requiring phys
ical examination by a competent an
thority of all candidates for matri-
mony and denying license to all who
are found unfit.
Resolved, That we ask the next leg
islature to enact a marriage license
law requiring the contracting parties
to swear to their age, whether or not
they are divorced and II divorced, the
reason therefor, and such other data
as may be found essential"
