the regulation Of the cotton crop. Coffee
can still be grown at a profit at less than
8 cents pound In times past the planters
have burnt immence stocks OF coffee to cut
down the amount that would otherwise be
thrown on the market
This state Of Tao PauIo has passed pro-
hihitive taxes with regard TO the laying out
Of fresh plantations. and. it has tried TO
corner the coffee crop. borrowing at one
time as much as $75.0O0.000 for that pur-
pose This was the celebrated movement
