Europe and y. S. supply World.

Prior to the outbreak of war in
Europe about onehalf of the worlds
production of sugar, exclusive of In
dia, was derived from beets. Some
years it has been a trile more, some
years a trif1e less. The worlds crop
of beet sugar is produced almost ex-
elusively in Europe and the United
States, a small amounttbeing produced
in Canada. The leading European
countries engaged in the production
Of beet sugar are Germany, Russia,
Austria, France, Belgium, Holland and
Italy. InAthese countries the industry
is more than a century old, and dur
ing this entire time it has been fos-
tered by a high tariff, by conventions
and cartels. Germany alone spent
more than s351,O00,OO0 in export
3bounties in order to foster the indus
try in that country.
During normal conditions Germany
was foremost among the European
nations in the production of beet snr
gar, the acres OF beets harvested in
that&country in 1874 ttthe year pre-
ceding the warl amounting to 1,317,,
1874, producing 18,679,466 short tons
OF beets, from which were manufac
[stured BOOB 1853 tons Of sugar. That is
