WORLD SHORTAGE
IN BEET SUGAR
Crops Are 40 Per Cent. Less
Than Pre-War Average-cen-
trail Powers Hit Hardest.
CANE SUGAR Is ISOLATED.
Allied Beet Production Falls One-third
In Rigid War Economy
Practiced.

The world today Is producing forty
per cent. less beet sugar than the pre-
war average.
Counting the American, Allied and
German-Austrian crops, as well as the
neutrals, the U. S. Food Administra
ton has estimated that the world
shortage created by the hight crop of
1917-1918 is at least three and half
million tons:
That the 1917-1918 crop of cane sug-
ar was two million tons in excess of
the previous year does not relieve the
general shortage.
Cuba and Java produce one-half of
the world cane crop, and the Java sug-
ar Is too far removed from America to
transport when shipping is badly need
ed to transport and maintain the mill
tary forces In France.
In Java a large part of the old sugar
crop is still awaiting shipment. Since
1t requires $50 to 100 days for each
boat that is sent to Java, the possibili-
ties of obtaining adequate shipments
of Java sugar this season are remote.
Allies Production Falls.
Taking the Allied nations as group
official reports show that beet sugar
production is less by one-third than the
pre-war average.
French beet sugar industry has suf
fered most by the war. The French
Weld of beet sugar is now only %
per cent. OF the pre-war average.
For the Ave years preceding the out
break of hostilities In Europe, France
produced an average of 752, $40 tons OF
sugar each year. For 1918 the
French production was 219,416 tons.
With 81 factories operating, as com
pared with more than 200 that wer,
In existence before the war and befor,
the general campaign of destructive
ness launched by the German armies
France nevertheless managed to manu-
facture more beet sugar In 1917-ls
than In 1851. when the total outpu
was 202.415 tons.
Italy In 1917-1S produced 1OO.SO,
tons of beet sugar. which was $500,
tons less than the previous year an,
11O.25O less than the annual output o.
sugar for the Ave year pre-war pc
Rod.
One of the great difficulties expert
enced In Italy's beet sugar industr'
was finding sufficient labor to handl
the crop. Thousands of men usual.
employed in beet sugar productiol
were called for military service Th'
Yield per acre amounted to approx
mately half Of the usual quantity o
beets harvested.

REGISTRATION CONSIDERATION
DAY


And now-you men who have stood by
While they went forth, perhaps to die,
These drafted boys who day by day
In loaded transports sailed away
You men who've seen them in their
might
Departures youths-to fight your
Now that the new draft bill is through,
How does the matter stand with you?
Will you make answer fair and square
When you fill cut your QUESTIONABLE?
Prepare you-man The witness-stand
Is calling you to show your hand
And how much blather and pure rot
How much of service-not of gold
You would give up or would withhold,
How much exemption you would claim,
And by what right you ask that same.
You may be one who thought no doubt
That somehow things would straighten
out
And peace would come, and you be free
Your dream of love and love of life
With equal hate of blood and strife
Why, untold millions have gone through
Those same northumberland like
you.
Your case can boast no circumstance
Without some parallel in France,
And though each one has known the
pain
OF sacrifice-he's learned the gain
The priceless prize of service free
Laid at the feet of liberty.
Oh, man, go forth-eyes toward the
goal,
With selfishness purged from YOU
soul,
So that your registration may
Become your conservation day,
And wheresoe'er the summons be-
To shipyard or to factory
Or to the battlefields of France
Go proudly forth--look not askance-
Right radiant to offer all
Your life can give to meet that call
