SUGAR AT HIGHEST PRICE FOR
MANY YEARS.
HALIFAX, October 22.-The Acadia
Sugar Refinery (lompany has announc-
crl t.hai. sugar has been advanced 30
vents on a hundred pounds. 'l‘liis is
tho highest price in years and is the
onine as the refinery prices in Mon-
frtial.
'I‘he British Empire only produces
about 900,000 tons ol' sugar an--un. '
out of the world's production Of
18,500,000 tons (including lnnn .¢hl- -
barely manages to supply hed own
consumers). Last year cheat irritant
paid about $75,000.000 to ilnrnisnv for
sligar imported. and now that source ot
supply is cut off.
lt was in consequence of a master-
stroke of business finance when the
(loverunient, by contracting for 900,000
ions of raw cane sugar at an average
price ofiibout .£20 per ton, represent-
ing a sum of if-$18,000,000, the British
Government has obtained control of
the cane sugar market for a sufllciently
long period to insure that consumers
in Great Britain will be able to fill
their requirements on favourable terms
until the conclusion of the war is
within sight.
It is suggested that the British
Government should institute a pre-
ference for colonial cane sugar in
order to encourage production, and a
movement is on foot to collect in-
forniation fi'oin all parts of the col-
onies as to the areas of land availablc

'tion as a lawyer, lecturer and globe-
.Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt and
Mr. W. H. McKay, of Tacoma. Wash-
ington, is at present visiting his old
home in Charlottetown, the guest of
his mother at 244 Cumberland Street.
Mr. McKay left the island twenty-
eight years ago. the 6th of last August,
and has since gained a wide reputa-
trotter. His field as a pedestrian has
been the world. While` walking
through France and Belgium, years
ago, he had an opportunity of seeing
the,arena of the present flghtin be-
tween the Allies and Germany. When
walking through European countries,
Mr. McKay visited Scotland and had
the honor of being received at Bal-
moral Castle by the late Queen Vic-
toria. whose signature and crest he
carries. Among other distinguished
people visited by Mr. McKay was the
lute King Humbert of italy. whose
signature and crest he also posseses,
the late King Leopold, of Belgium, and
the Queen Regent of Spain. He also
had the pleasure of calling upon
Taft, ot’ the United States.
Mr. McKay considers he is now en-
titled to a short-wacation from his
world wanderiiigs, after twenty-three
tablished 21 official records and has
never yet been beaten in 102 conipet-
itions. He is at present renewing old
acquaintances in his native island.

PRODUCE.-Thcf North Sydney
Herald says:-The cargo of oats po-
tatoes and turnips on hoard the
schooner at Brennan's wharf, owned
by Mr.. Lea Wood, Mt. Herbert, P.
E. I., was last week quickly’ purclias-
cd by a long-suffering public.. Many
readers of The North Sydney _Hei'ald,
on learning ot' the prevailing prices
-:i5 cents the bushel for potat'oes-
made u rush to secure a suppiy,but so
great was the demand that many nr-
rived too late to get any. The i'ol-
lowing day another schooner pulled
into the same wharf. but when pur-
chnscrs applied the price had jjnmp-
ed to 55 cis. later falling to 45 cents
It seems hard at present to place
them at a profit, but this may be pos-
sible later on." Allowing 15 cents a
bushel for commission. cariing,wharf-
age. freight and ii reasonable nuirgln
for the middleman, the inflated prices
asked by certain dealers is causing
considerable comment among house-
holders who are held up here.. Already
several heavy consumers- are talking
of chartering one or more ltessels.
with the object of avoiding the high
prices. Before leaving here for Char-
lottetown last week, Mr. Wood told
The North Sydney Herald he would
be here in less than three weeks with
one or more cargoes of produce, and
that he believed the price for pots-
toes would not exceed 30 cents the
bushel. lt might be said here. in or-
der to allay the feelings of certain
doubting Thomsses who disbelteved
the 'quotations as appearins lil |951
week's Herald that the DPICGS *"9"*
furnished by Mr. Wood. the own_er
of the cargo, who was informed tis
quotations were for publication. Ml
the information was accordingly used
to protect the suffering household-
er.
