INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT
GRANULATED SWEETNESS
Points Taken From the American
Sugar Refining Company's
Annual Report.

The report of the American Sugar
Refining Company for 1921 is out and
contains some statements that are Of
general interest as follows:
The United States sugar industry is
| the greatest of its kind in the world
, and ranks in importance with steel,
! railroads and farm products. The
, company claims heavy losses because
the government took control of the
/ industry during war times, which con-
troll did not cease entirely until the
, end of 1921.
Little progress has been made II:
/ Europe is rebuilding the sugar pro-
duction of that part of the world,
which gives this nation the lead in
sugar production for the world by a
large margin. The world supply and
demand remain about the same as
during the war; the shortage in Eu-
rope being made up largely by in
creased production in Cuba.
The production of what is classed
as the United States and Cuban fields
is considered ample to supply the
United States and Europe for many
years.
The total business of the company
for 1921 amounted to 40 million dol
lars, as compared with $50 million
dollars in 1920. The shrinkage in bust
ness volume was due to lower prices,
mainly. The company claims a loss
for the year of nearly two and
quarter millions of dollars in opera
tion alone and loss in other ways of
nearly IL millions. The total capital
ization of the company is ninety mil
lions of dollars.
Large Plantation.
The company own one tract of sugar
land in Cuba of 40 square miles and
has two plants in operation on it. On
this vast plantation they have more
that 100 miles of standard guage rail-
road and have living quarters for
their men of the highest type. During
the past year they have also pur
chased two large islands comprising
$50 square miles. These two vast
properties are operated under diff
ferent name, but the entire capital
stock of 100000 dollars is owned
by the American company. Thecomp
any also owns stock in other sugar
refining companies in excess of 10
millions of dollars.
The company has free hospital ser.
vice at their several plants and besides
has sick and injury benefits and car
rics insurance on all its employees,
who have been with them as long as
three months. They have a pension
list of 388, some of whom draw as
much as $1,000 year. The smallest
pension received is $500 a year. EN-
ployGes purchased over $4,000 shares
during 1921. The par value of stock
is $Ioo q share The total number of
stockholders is 27,s26 and hold All av-
erage Of 80 shares There are one
Or more stockholders in the company
living in every state in the union and
in most of the countries of the world.
The total estimated production Of
cane and beet sugar for the world in
1921 is about I6 and a half millions
long tons of a,24o pounds. At the
present price Of sugar it is shown to
be only little over one-half as cost
" as milk, eggs, butter bread and po-
tatots. Indicat tions are favorable for
a continued low price for sugar.

Be Careful What You Wash
Your Child's Hair With

If you want to keep your child's hair
in good condition, be careful what you
wash it with. Most soaps and pre-
pared shampoos contain too much al
kali. This dries the scalp, makes the
hair brittle, and is very harmful Null
sified cocoanut oil shampoo (Which is
pure and entirely greaseless), is much
better than anything else you can use
for shampooing, as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply put two or three teaspoon
fuls of Mulsified in cup or glass with
little warm water, then moisten the
hair with water and rub it in. 1t will
make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly The lather rinses out
easily, and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excess oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.
Be sure your druggist gives you Null

After Dinner Trick S
No. 22s-The United Pack of Cards

No. 223-The United Pack Of Cards
Two packs of cards are taken, one
by spectator and the other by the per
former. The latter challenges the spec
tator to toss his pack freely in the air,
as high as the ceiling, and yet have the
cards fall all together, only scattering
when they strike the floor. When the
spectator attempts the feat. the cards
begin to scatter before they reach the
ceiling. The performer, however, gives
his pack careless toss. and the cards
come down IN a solid mass, until they
reach the floor.
To accomplish this feat, the per-
former previously tied hair about the
center of his pack. The hair is in
visible a foot away, but it holds the
cards as firmly as would a piece of
string. When the pack hits the floor,
the force of the fall breaks the hair,
and the cards are scattered. The cards
may be thoroughly examined, but the
spectators will find no clue to the
secret.
