Announcement from WashinEtoA
that the beet sugar producers Of the
country have agreed upon n maxi.
mum Of 37.26 for sugar during 1917,
was. declared today in Denver TO Be
premature. but it was admitted that
this figure would probably be ac-
ceptable to the beet sugar interests
which will have = meeting with Her
bert C. Hoover. food administrator.
within the next ten days. The price
announced Is the figure to jobbers.
and IL is to b the basis at the Attain
tic seaboard
II tho price named IL determined
upon at the coming conference It will
mean that the cost Of beet sugar to
the consumer will b reduced materi.
ally from today's quotation Of $3.50
per hundred pound bag. Until tbs
attitude of the government Is made
known through tho enactment Of the
taxing bills pending IN congress.
which will include consumption tar
upon all sugar, the exact amount Of
the drop in price cannot be stated.
However, based upon the present
spread between sugars 1t the sea-
boards and in Denver. the price
should, according to Sidney w. Sim
sheimer, vice president and general
manager Of the Holly Sugar corpora
tion. range between $7.75 and $500
per hundred-pound bag. plus the
excise which It il known the govern.
ment will impose in the nature Of .
consumption tax. This will probably
be at least fifty cents. according TO
the latest advices from Washington
and hence the consumer will have to
pay between Ss.25 and $3.50 bag.
Today's beet sugar quotation, n
applies to the housewife. is $3.50, &C.
cording to the John Thompson Groe-
cry company. This is estimated up
on n seaboard basis Of $500 in New
York for beet and $40 for cane
sugar. OF course cane sugar is prac-
tically out of the market. except such
stocks as are in tho hands Of re.
tailers. In reality, however, the local
price might be raised to 1910 as the
actual selling basis to jobbers in San
Francisco 10 $40 . hundred pound
bag.
Colorado's annual consumption Of
sugar Is estimated at eighty pounds
Ter person, or based upon popuis-
tion Of 1,000.000 the total consump-
tion per yea is S)o.CDo bags "r Ito
rt lids each. Assuming that the con-
sumer's price will reach $3.50, this
would mean a saving from today's
price Of $3.50 Of 1920, 900 a year.
It is the understanding Of the Dem
YER beet sugar manufacturers that
the figure of $7.25, II adopted, will
apply, as nearly rs possible to tho
Cuban cane sugars. This is a matter
which cannot be determined yet.
However. there is . possibility that
the United States government will
enter the Cuban market and buy
the entire crop, At fig

Hawaiian Pineapple Industry

From the POpuar Sc1enCe MOnthly.
 Before the United States acquired them the Hawaiian Islands were famous chief ly for their natives and their leper col ony. There were no special cultivation of the soil, no trade. and no commercial industries of value But since the annexa- tion to the United States in 1900. Ameri- can enthusiasm and American progress siveness have invaded the land. The pine apple industry is one of the best illus trations of the result of this American izing. 1t was started almost hy chance, Dy j comparatively lineducated, inexperi- enced New England lad. the son of a clcrsyman He chose to locate in Hawaii on account of it's wonderful climate and finding that the pineapples were especial ly luscious and that they grew quickly and abundantly. he persuaded his father to secure few thousand dollars for him to start him in the pineapple-raising busi- ness It was a veritable gct-rich-quick scheme It has netted fortunes to each one of those friendly parishioners whe advanced money for the venture.

The Best Breakfast
H. D. sedgwick in the Yale Review.


 Coffee is the corner stone of breakfast; Lit needs no eulogy. l only dwell upon it. because under the inspiration of it's fumes everybody must become more and more convinced that Charles Lambs, Sid- ney Smiths, or Thackeray's essays are the most appropriate breakfast reading essays old enough to be embedded in Eng fish literature. Thackeray's essays, l say not his novels. Novels, plays. and wayward forms of belles lettres are very rarely suitable. If you read Mrs. Hum phry Ward at breakfast you find your self putting three Jumps of sugar into your cup; or if it be Lord Dunsany, you will empty the sugar bowl. If I were to imagine a perfect breakfast I should open the "Roundabout Papers at a
 Lazy Idle Boy or take up Hazlitt's es- say "On Going Journey and having read page I should takec offee-pot in one hand, ot-milk jug in the other, and pour forth fitting eulogy. After pour ing out cup number one I should read a second page. and then eat an apple or an orange, for the morning freshness re- quires some juicy fruit
 After oatmeal, comes an egg, by prefer ence coddled. Tenderness. next to fresh ness, is the noblest virtue in an egg, and coddling alone brings out all the tenderness an egg is capable of. A three minute egg is we'll enough it you must catch train or be downtownat some impossible hour, but it is not on the same shelf--if one may designate break fast dishes by the books that should ac- company them-with a coddled egg. Poached eggs, scrambled eggs fried eggs, omelets, are not adapted for solitary breakfast. In the first place no cook will poach or fry or scramble only one egg and two are too many, for break fast needs a topping off with honey or marmalade. and two eggs crowd out such a possibility: besides eggs on toast re- Quire knife and fork, and these utensils need both eyes. You cannot read and cup up at the same time whereas an egg in the shell may be left to the blind care of hand and egg-spoon. A hard boiled egg Is not to be thought of, un- less indeed (by some law of compensa- tion) one happens to be reading senti- mental poetry of vers de societe which supply the solt coddle one would get in a properly cooked egg. The case is dif- ferent when man prepares for long out of-doors day, and needs good plate of eggs and bacon, and ends up with buokwheat cakes and maple syrup; that is qnite another sort of breakfast and re- quires a different book. Nevertheless Lockhart and Boswell are always in or der, especially If bacon and eggs and buckwheat cakes are to be the breakfast fare for a week or so;. continuity for the body prescribes continuity for the mind.

CLARK GRIFFITH WILL
ALSO SEND BASEBALL
NEWS TO FRANCE

Clark Griffith. manager Of the Wash
ington American League club. who has
charge of the Bat AMI Bali fund from
which the revenue is derived to send
baseball paraphernalia to the American
boys in the trenches, has also now made
arrangements whereby the soldiers in
France win have all the baseball news
that they wish, he having just placed
an order for 500 copies Of The Sporting
News, the official baseball paper. to be
sent to General John j. Pershing. Unit
ed States Army. Somewhere in France.
When it was originally decided to for
ward baseball paraphernalia to the SOL
diers in France it was not planned to
send baseball news, but on account Of
the persistent demand among some of
the soldiers who do not wish to play.
but who want copies Of The Sporting
News, they viii receive them in the flu
ture. In addition to these papers which
Mr. Griffith has ordered. J. G. Taylor

Paul Parduhns Hammond baseball
club, champions OF the city Baseball
League Of Chicago and vicinity if you
please, That IS the title that the local
peed-nerchants won for themselves
yesterday, and 1t was superior baseball
coupled with capable mana cement
that turned the trick. Hammond may
well afford TO pat itself on the back
now, for ii can boast Of a bunch Of
clean-cut. intelligent baseball players
who pull-zogether' and "listen-to-the-
teacher" spirit has enabled them to de-
feat the fastest semi-pro teams in the
city Of Chicago.
When the local club beat Waukegan
yesterday it dealt her her first defeat Of
the season. and did it without even a
hint at an unfair decision. and left the
visitors without an aIibi We simply
swept them of their feet. Three thou
sand fans witnessed the game and they
gave the team more support than has
been shown at any game in the past
An abundance Of pep" among support
ers Of team has often won a baseball
contest, and Hammond fans surely did
their share to bring home the bacon
yesterday. Lack of interest in the past
has. no doubt. been due to the fact that
in the latter part Of the schedule. Ham
mond had been playing repeaters with
teams which it had already played
earlier in the season and our former
victories over them had robbed the los
ers Of their attractions. The schedule
called for return dates. however. and
we had to play the repeaters. In the
future. the best teams available will
be selected and Hammond fans are an
ticipating g higher grade Of entertain
ment.
A Summary Of the Game.
Henning again covered himself with
honors by batting 1000. thereby leading
the list of stick artists. Both he and
Hoffman come in for a good share Of
the victory.
We don't want to take any more
credit from Waukegan than we can
help but they should never have had
that one run. That score was presented
TO them by Mostil and Kavanaugh. The
latter erred, allowing man to reach
second and Mostn made single out OF
q possible double play. that let the run
in. MolI came in for an error too. but
his was almost unavoidable He gath
cred up the ball all right but stumbled
while getting set for the peg to FIRST
His man never got past that bag.
