UNITED STATES IS
ON A sugar SPREE
IMPORT PRICES JUMPING TO
KEEP PACE.
Ter Capita Yearly Consumption
Jumps From 80 to SO Pounds
Decade

NEW YORK, Oct. 25-The asser-
ton that the Unied States has gone
on sugar spree" since the advent
Of prohibition lends interest to a Sc
ries of compilations which compares
cur sugar consumption in 1919 with
previous years. They show that the
quantity of sugar consumed in the
United States in the year ending with
June, 1919, was greater than in any
year in the history of the country
and the sums paid for it double those
in the year preceding the war.
The sugar consumed by our people
aggregated nearly 9,0OO,OO0,OO0
pounds in the fiscal year, 1919,
against about 8,OOOOOO,OOO last year,
8,500,OOO,OOO pounds in the year prior
to the war, little over 7,50O,000,0O0
in 1910, 6,OOO,OOO,0OO in 1905, g.
100000, 900 in 1902 and 4,500,-
100000 in 1900. Thus the 1919 con-
sumption is about double that of 1900,
although the population meaptime has
increased only SO per cent. The av-
erage per capita consumption in 1919
was SO pounds against n pounds per
capita in 1918, rs in 1916. SO in 1900,
80 in 1890, 40 in 1880 and 33 pounds
per capita in 1870. Our people, al
though forming about 6 per cent of
the wirld's population, cansumped last
year nearly 25 per cent Of the worlds
sugar production.
The sums paid for sugar by our
people in 1919 were far in excess Of
those of any earlier year. The av-
erage import price for the raw prod
ucts brought in from foreign countries
averaged little more than five cents
per pound Exclusive of duty as
against an average of two cents per
pound in 1914, and the sums paid
by hte consumers for all sugar pur-
chased during the year will approx
mate $1,OOO,OOO,OOO as against lit
tie more than one-third of that sum
in the year prior to the war.
About one-fourth of the nearly g.
C00,OOO,OO0 pounds of sugar consum-
ed in the United States in the fiscal
year 1919 was produced in the United
States, another one-fourth was pro-
Guced in our islands and the remain
der drawn from foreign countries.
About three-fourths of the quantity
produced in our own fields was from
beets, and only one-fourth from cane,
while all of that brought in from
our islands or from foreign countries
was produced from cane. The aver.
age price paid for that entering the
country from Hawaii in the fsca
year 1919 was 81 cents per pound ans
from Porto Rico 6.8 cents per pound
these figures being in all cases thost
Of the raw product.

Florida Crackers-real crackers, ev-
cry one of them reached Tampa at
1880 last night from Gainesville to
get in the finishing touches for the
clash with Georgia Saturday after
noon. The train was two hours late.
Coming with the outfit was a piece
of welcome news-a telegram thai
arrived just before it left announc-
ing that Rondo Hatton, the Gator
general, is eligible. They had rul-
ed Hatton ineligible, claiming he had
played on a frst-class college team
before going to Florida. Carlton,
the crack halfback from Wauchula,
was finally decided ineligible until
next year, as he came to Florida
from Tech. The S. l. A. A. officers
have ruled that Davis and Elkins,
where Hatton went to school, is a
prep school, and Hatton plays Sat-
urday.
There was a small mob of Florida
alumni at the station to greet the
eleven, and the lateness Of the hour
hadn't cut down the attendance bit.
The boys were autoed to the DeSoto,
where Florida and Georgia colors have
converted the lobby into typical COL
