Rumors have been set ahoat in

nothing TO back them up.
The 192O-192l beet sugar crop in

1000 long tons. says the Govern
ment Crop Reporter. The previous
crop was only 652.957 tons.
NEW YORK, March 7. - The
Cuban sugar crop. now coming to
market is practically as large as the
1919-192O crop. II is estimated at
100000 long tons by the American
Sugar Refining Company.
The American Sugar Bulletin says:
Very heavy receipts OF 17O,338 tons
OF sugar at Cuban ports are reported
for the week. This figure was only
exceeded In one week during the
1919-192O crop"
Raw Cuban sugar is at AZ cents
