were considerably above the figures of the
four preceding years, the consumption in
1907 having been Z 600 tons less than in
1912. Meanwhile there is also q rapid in
crease in the amount of sugar used on the
Continent of Europe.
The planters of Barbados are now deeply
interested in the discussion going on in the
Canadian House OF Parliament with respect
to the Trade Agreement between the Domi-
Mon and the West Indies. Among other
points under consideration, the question of
direct steamship service is a most important
one for the sugar trade. Although shorter
routes through tee United States give de-
cided advantages for passenger traffic and
for communication, vet we think the convey
ance of sugar produce is likely to cost less
in a direct service, although the time taken
may be longe; aud it may not often he
necessary that such produce should be hur-
ried to the market, if the sale has been ar
ranged beforehand, as is usually the Case.
1t is, we think, desired by all concerned in
the West Indies that, among the conditions
in the Agreement, there should be that of q
regular direct service between Montreal and
the West Indies.
The latest report from the Liverpool cot
ton market shows that West Indian Sea Is
land cotton was bringing from I0d. 10 ia.
for old crops, and l9d. to l9d. for new crop,
this latter being from st. Kits. The tabu-
lated account OF the West Indian cotton in-
dustry for the year from October, 1911, to
September, 1912, given in the agricultural
NeacS, shows that st. Vincent is the highest
exporter of cotton among the British West
Indian Islands, sending forward in the IL
months 533, 1913 lbs, worth f40,514; Barba-
dos comes next with 455, 669 lbs, worth 928,
112; Grenada follows with $50, 264 lbs,
worth 912,691, there evidently being among
the Grenada expectation much cotton of an
inferior kind; Montserrat shipped 344, 1853 lbs,
worth e22, 1915; St. Kits 1872, 168 lbs worth
Ell PSI; Antigua 244, gibbs, worth 916, 1O6.
The yield from the st. Vincent fields, com
prising 5,O68 acres of Sea Island cotton, was
only SO lbs. of lint per acre, and their 1887
acres of Marie Galante yielded only As lbs.
per acre. Unfavourable weather in the first
months of growth had an adverse influence.
The Barbados cotton cultivation yielded
no better han that of st. Vincent lust sea-
son.

The month o. January has boeA TIE wet
test first month of any year since 1906, not
wlthstanding that in 1909 there was an ex-
traordinary downpour over the middle high
lands. giving 6 inches in one day, For this
month there has been 10 inches in some
parts of st. Joseph, St. John and st Tho
mas: s inches in other places on the hills and
from 5 to 6 inches in the lower levels. The
only heavy fall was on the 18th, when z to
"a inches were recorded in different places
tor the "a hours, hat being the highest re-
cord on any one day since the 2lst August,
1911.
The precipitation for the 4 months from
LIST October, 1912, to 30th January, 1913, has
been over 80 inches in some parts OF the IS
Ian I. and it has been, on the whole, an even
distribution both as regards time and place.
1t is about once and a half the quantity OF
rain that fell between January l and Septem-
Der 80 in 1912.
The young cane crop is growing we'll in
every district. Probably those who plant IN
January will be more satisfied with the con-
dition of their young canes than those who
plant in November and early December. The
early canes are likely to prove too forward to
withstand the effects of any dry weather
that may overtake them later IN the year.
The fields are not all put out of hand yet, as
some maturing, draining and forklng are
still being done.
The influence of the rains upon the crop
for the sugar season now opening has been
most beneficial. AT the beginning OF Octo-
Der. planters estimated that, with the wea-
Their conditions continuing up to the
end of the year as they had been during
the preceding 9 months, the crop OF 1918
would not be more than 30 per cent. OF an
average crop. Now, however,, there is good
reason to calculate on more than the double
of whatever that figure might have been
No one who was not in the island during the
middle of last year. if he should see now the
cane fields on the border of St. George and
St. John in the hill districts OF st. Joseph,
St. Thomas, St. James. with the slopes OF st:
Andrew adjoining, and in the inner belt OF
ST. Lucy, would be ready to believe that
such a drought as has been reported did pre-
