Gradually, under cultivation, beets improved, getting sweeter. By 1913 Great Britain was buying 96 per cent. or her sugar from her future enemies, Germany and Austria, and only 4 per cent. from her own tron- ical possessions, says Edwin E. Slossom in the World’s Work. Soon after the outbreak of the Great War Great Britain took control of her sugar trade and began to sell at less than cost. For the last year and more of the war Britain nevertheless had very short. rations of sugar” carefully dOlPt'l out. to her civilian implllathll. Sugar enntrnl cost her 3120000000 in cleticit. Although sugar cane had a 300 years start on it, beet sugar had caught up With it at the advent of the Great. War. In 1913 the world prmluetion of vane sugar and beet. sugar was nine million tons each. The war raging over the former beet tields of Europe gave sugar cane a temporary boost. anld made sugar raising in the West Indies enor- mously profitable. Even by 1920 only one-fourth of the world‘s sugar supply was contributed by beets. But in 1921 beets furnished the mil- lion tons of sugar to eane’s 11,400,,000 inns. and the beet is rapidly coming into its own again. In 1919 Lloyd George gaw a prof- vronro of $1.00 a hnndrmlwviglit on sugar prmlncm‘l within tho limpiri‘. and in 1921 Britain subscriliml 83.- 773000 to start boot. growing: in tho British Isles. and gnarantved 5 our cont. to investors in the industry.

Offl. £1638 are narrow In spite of the‘ fact that post-oflice bookkeeping takes no account of ex- penses for building, maintaining post offices or of interest and taxes, the United States postal deficit for the last flscal year was about sixty million dollars. As a business, the post otl‘ ice has next to no “overhead,” yet it never succeeds in getting back the cost of the service it provides; It is the general opinion that a large part of the deficit, if not al- most all of it, is the result of insuf- ficient. revenue from the parcel post branch, which now handles almost 65 per cent. of all the postal busi- ness. The proper rates for that ser- vice have never been carefully and scientifically worked out. Since by its great. bulk the parcel post mail necessarily impedes and delays the handling and delivery of first-class mail, it should at least he made pay its own way.
