out in discussing these experiments that
'the value OF sugar In ration depends
upon its judicious use and combination

more blood traverses an active or working

than Is the case with n muscle al rest.
"To decide the question Of the value OF

has been carried on. II has been found

The cost of sugar to

increased since the war
began. Ii Is predicted
that the price will be
raised again and again
In the near future-su-

The enormous mag

But one little side-show
to the business casts q
light upon the hugeness
of the industry. One
sugar company In q re-
port in 1915 said:

The Washington times., 1920-01-04

Starch is chemically the same
thing as sugar, though in different
form. Il is readily convertible into
the noncrystallizable sugar called
glucose---a clear, thick liquid which pours
like molasses. Factories In this country

to candy the requisite body"
The United States Department OF Com
rnerce. in 1917, said that the average pro-
ductien cost Of sugar in Cuba was less than
a cent and a half pound, ready-bagsed
for market Possibly the cost to-day Is as
much a. two cents and half Manifestiy
somebody is making lot of money.
Europe has been accustomed to depend
for its sugar supply mainly upon the beets
of Germany, Belgium and France. During
the war, for lack of available labor, the
acreage planted with sugar beets in Ger
many was greatly reduced, and owing to
disturbed conditions, this branch OF agrf
culture has not yet regained prosperity. In
France and Belgium the most important
beetgrowing areas were occupied by the
enemy Thus II Is easy to understand the
reason for the present sugar shortage over
there.
The shortage means high prices,
which have attracted Cuban exports OF
sugar to Europe. 1t is altogether likely
that from this time on Europe will con-
tinue to look to Cuba for large part OF
It's sugar supply. Hence the shortage In
the United States will not be relieved;
and, with the demand in this country stead
lily increasing, the housewife before long
may find herself obliged to pay for this
necessary as much as fifty cents a pound.
That there should be any such expecta-
tion is highly absurd, inasmpch as there is
no reason In the world why we should not
produce in this country all the sugar We
need, The so-called muck lands" of Flor
ida are as we'll adapted for sugar cane as
any lands In Cuba. Indeed, these lands
produce cane bigger and richer in sugar
than the Cuban. Vast areas about Lake
Okeechobee, In the region OF the Ever
glades, need only to be drained In order
to yield the most wonderful sugar crops
in the world.
The territory that borders the Gulf Of
Mexico and the Caribbean Sea- with Cuba
and other islands, Is geographically tss
worlds great sugar bowl. Practically all
Of Il, In respect of climate, soil and other
conditions, Is ideally adapted for the pro-
duction of the precious cane, But no part
OF II is better suited for the purpose than
our southeastern peninsula, which juts out
into the warm waters OF the Gulf Stream.
The State of Florida alone Is capable OF
producing all the sugar we require for our
own consumntion. It's muck lands tas
demonstrated by existing p'antations) win
Yield an average of sixty tons OF cane to
the acre. For each ton reckon 240 pounds
OF sugar and you have an output of more
than $4,000 pounds to the acre. A thou
sand acres at that rate would produce
