According to the "Journal des Contributions Industries" 28 factories
of the Somme and 26 factories of the Alana were raced to the greund, while factories in the Nord were more or Tess pillaged, and the plant. taken taken away. At the commencement of the 1919-sugar season only 60 factories were able to undertake work in these areas.
The reduction in production has thus been quite appreciable. Pro duction for the sceson preceding the war was about 717,227,946 kilogram mes. The estimates for the present season, are actually about 150,000,000 kilos.
It is true that there is a Colonial production, but, unfortunately, the Colonies which were formerly able to supply about 100,000,000 kilo grammes have been obliged to re -duce their export, not only because of the difficulties of freight, but also -on account of the high prices of

The rise in prices and compulsory the restrictions naturally reduced consumption, but nevertheless it became necessary to draw on foreign production. In 1918-19 foreign in. ported sugar amounted to 367,000,000 kilogrammes, of which 150,000,000 came from the United States,
from Cuba, 101,000,000
