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 "t'or"sugar cane cuiiIvaiIo'n_ ‘ ' '

.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.
