Why Sugar is High

Europe and America are now
engaged in a battle royal for sugar.
That is the primary cause OF the
high prices that now prevail. Cut
off by the outbreak of the war from
her supply of 1880, 900 tons of
sugar ordinarily secured from
Germany and Austria Hungary,
England turned to the nearest
available sugar market, WHICH
happened to be New York. Backed
by cash, assuming all the war risk
involved in shipment and ready to
pay whatever prices might be
necessary to secure sugar, British
buyers invaded the American mar
ket. Within little more than a
week, they purchased almost 1907
600 tons OF raw and refined sugar,
bidding up the market nearly 8
cents pound in the process of
getting it. Their buying subsidized
temporarily only when they found
it impossible to secure further
prompt transportation. AS anoth-
er war measure for securing a
supply of sugar, orders were
issued in all the sugar-growing
colonies of Great Britain forbid
ding the sale of sugar except for
imperial use.

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm

When a man has suffered for several
days with collie, diarrhoea or other
form OF bowel complaint and is then
cured sound and well by one or two
doses of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often
the case, 1t is but natural that he
should be enthusiastic in his praise of
the remedy, and especially is this the
case of severe attack when life is
threatened. Try it when in need of
such remedy. 1t never fails. Sold
