The production of sugar from Am.
erican soil during the year just clos.
ed was the greatest in the history OF
the industry. This result was due
primarily to the situation brought
about by the war in Europe. Upon
the outbreak of that struggle it was
obvious that the reduction in the
worlds available supply Of export
sugars void lead to higher prices
during the period of the war. This
influence not only Offset the reduc.
ton in the area devoted to sugar
production in the United States fol-
lowing the adoption of the Under
wood tariff law, but led to an in
crease in acreage over previous years
The effect of this stimulus is OBJ
servab,e in the yield of beet sugar
during the campaign just completed,
while in the case of the Porto Rican
cane crop the result will become
manifest with the completion of the
grinding season now under way.
AS IL takes practically two years to
grow a crop in Hawaii the war has
not affected the Hawaiian yield. In
Louisiana the season just closed has
been disappointing one, due in part
to the cary decentralization caused
by unfavorable tariff legislation and
in part to adverse weather condi-
tions during the making Of the crop.
At the present time prospects for a
normal crop in Louisiana next sea.
son seem to be encouraging.
A long forward stride in produc-
ton was made by the beet sugar
branch of the domestic industry dur
ing the past twelve months. The
area devoted to sugar beets amount
ed to $4,000 acres an increase of
30 per cent over the previous year
Excessive wet weather in Eastern
states and a drouth in Western ter
ritory injured the early prospect of
the crop, but favorable conditions at
the end OF the season brought about
rapid improvement and over 6,O0o.-
600 tons OF beets were finally har-
vested, an increase OF 100000 tons
compared with 1914. Returns from
the majority of the operating sugar
factories indicate a production Of ap.
proximately S6S,OOO short tons (77H..
900 long tons) of sugar for the cur.
ent campaign. With the largest acre.
age and tonnage Of beets ever grown
the production of beet sugar exceeds
the greatest preceding crop that OF
1918, by about 100000 long tons.
Sixty-seven sugar factories in four
teen states were in operation durii".
the season compared with sixty In
1914 and scventy-one in 1918.
Next to beet sugar the largest con
tribution made to the output OF
home grown sugar was that of Ha
wall. Its 1914-15 crop which came
to market during last year amount
ing In round figures to $4,000 short
tons (57S,C0O long tons), an increase
of more than $4,000 tons over the
preceding year.

Habit of Promptness.

Once you form habit Of being
prompt to meet all your engagements,
you will find 1t just as easy to be
prompt as to be tardy. Work con-
scientiously until the habit is formed
and the whole of your life will be
the easier for 1t.
Occasionally, of course, with the
best of intentions delays occur that
cause us to keep others waiting. II
is always q good plan. therefore. when

j S. SUGAR CROPS GROW

The outtun of sugar in Porto Rico
was not as large in 1915 as in previ.
GUS years and reached only $4,000
long tons the lowest output since
1909. The principal reason given for
the reduced yield was reduction In
paintings following the enactment of
the Underwood tariff law. Although
the tonnage fell off for the year the
planters secured better financial re-
turns from their crop than in previ.
Gus years, and the improved condi-
tions brought about by the war are
expected to be reflected by large
increase in the next crop.
The Louisiana crop fell to the low.
est level in over quarter of a cen
fury and Is not expected to yield ov-
or 100000 long tons. With the Tex.
as crop and a small amount of cane
sugar produced in Arizona. the total
for the Southern cane district Is not
expected to amount to more than
1873, 900 tons. A drouth during the
earlier part of the growing season,
destructive hurricane over part
OF the Louisiana cane belt and re.
servation by the planters OF an extra
amount of cane for the next crop
were factors operating to reduce the
final yield.
Sugar production in the Philippines
showed no marked increase during
the rast year. The industry was
hampered by restricted transporta-
ton facilities and high freight rates,
the cost Of marketing Philippine SUI
gar In the United States reaching as
high as 500 ton during the year.
The greater part Of the export crop
OF 243,000 long tons was disposed of
In the Far East, but about 10000 tons
were shipped to the United States, a
decrease OF over 10000 tons com.
pared with the preceding year.
AS campaign periods in the various
branches of domestic sugar produc-
ton do not coincide with calendar
years it is difficult to give figures Of
production for the year. Taking, how
ever the continental beet and cane
crops just completed, With the insu-
lar crops marketed chiefly during the
twelve months of 1915, the following

President Morrison made short

some instances Of actual cooperation.
The Citrus Growers association Of
southern California, he said, has been
