tions in 1915 against 43 last year.
Future Position Is Strong as.h
Regarding the course of prices In
1916, although the estimates of cane
crops and the American beet crops
show slightly larger than 1915, still all
the sugar produced should undoubtedly
be needed especially In view of there
being praetieallytno beet crop for 1916
IN France, and English requirements In.
dictate larger figure than last year ow-
ing 70 smaller imports of Java sugar.
While the average price for 1918 has
been slightly over. 3Iae G. & I. for 96o
cnbas, or say fiuetuating between 2sse
and 3-l8c c a T., with the war con.
timing, prices for 1916 may be expect,

Cuban Planters Are Fit t =. y. IT,.
This Is especially 80, as Cuba after
year and a half of large crops, accom-
panied by very high prices---a eombina,
ton that rarely exists-7-is in a strong
financial condition, and there will be
very little actual forcing OF sugars on
the market, except possibly during the
period Of large production in Febrary.
April. The position of Cuban raws is
strengthened by the formation Of a

, After the Flood

Experience has proved that now il
the time to use nitrate of soda and
keep the cane from going back. Floods
of rain such as have fallen during the
last week rob the top soil, where most
of the fertility is, washing away both
soil and fertilizer. A light application
of nitrate the first dry day will do a
world of good. =. fss42a.l q, q -.
The value of trash m1lches in hold.
ing back water aud preventing wash
will probably turn more attention to
this practise. Very little has been
said Of this benefit from ileaying the
trash on the fields. A trash blanket
protects cane fields from wash Just as
underground and fallen leaves prevent
the erosion of soil in forested areas.
