The London Times trade supplement of May 22, reports that the German sugar beet crop for 1919-20, will ulti mately turn out 740.000 long tons of sugar as against the previous year,; which gave a total of 1.193.000 long tons. From this we see that that sec tion of the German beet sugar crop, known as such, turns out for the sea son now closing 453,000, tons less than the crop last year. Lest we forget, let us remember that Cuban crop will turn out 850,000 le than was expected on December 1, 1919, and oer 300,000 tons less than the rrop of the previous year. Java turns out over 400,000 tons less than the previous year, and Willett & Grav now estimate the decrease in the world's sugar production at 1,331,000 long tons, at compared with that of last vear. Under tbee conditions it would seera frimply absured to look for low-priced sugars. The cannera and preservers, who were so forward with their threats a few months ago that they frightened Secretary Palmer into negotiations with Argentina for a cer tain amount of sugar for their relief. ill now probably miss their Argentine tipply, as the present dispatches are to the effect that the Argentine govern ment has placed an embargo on all sugar shipments. What augar Argen tina has, it now appears, she intends to keep. If in the face of these dataj the Cubans, who have sugar, are charged with the great crime of asking higher! prires for it. then all the world is equally criminal, if we may judge by . kill I h uy I Eltrical Aids folieupto-datc hostess " For the after theater bite, the hasty lunch or afternoon tea, as well as for recular every day use, electric table cookery has become all the race.
