Sugar and Molasses the Leading Exports. 



In respect to exports during 1916, the Cienfuegos district has been particularly fortunate. 

 A good yiekl of sugar and consequently of molasses, good prices and complete sale of the 

 products, as well as favorable returns from tobacco, have covered the entire district in such a 

 manner as to make the effects of prosperity quite general. 



Sugar and molasses continue the leading staples of Cuba. Of the $75,922,533 worth of 

 merchandise exporte-d through the five ports of this district, statistics show the amount of 

 sugar to have been as follows: From Cienfuegos, $32,286,440; Caibarien, $19,473,848; Sagua la 

 Grande, $20,683,073; Trinidad. $940,672; and from Tunas de Zaza. $1,001,497; total, $74,385,- 

 530. Ex-ports of molasses from Cienfuegos were valued at $1,200,158; from Caibarien, $71,166; 

 and from Sagua la Grande $121,900; total, $1,393,224. The grand total of these two articles 

 was $75,778,754, leaving a balance of only $143,782 to be distributed among animal products, 

 fruits, vegetables, asphalt, woods, wax, tobacco, alcohol and hquors. 



Conditions surrounding tobacco, have shown no noteworthy or material change since last 

 report. Owing to its exportation through Habana, no figures are obtainable here. Honey 

 produced in this district is also exported throug;i Habana, where it is claimed it is disposed of to 

 greater advantage.
