The Colony of Surinam has produced in the last five years 

 successively : 



in 1879 1,122,900 Kilogr. 



1880 939>899 5 



1881 i,67o,o53 5 



1882 1,237,707 



1883 1,765, 174 5 



making altogether a total of 6,735,824 kilogr. all which 

 quantities found their way to foreign markets. It may be 

 safely granted that the total Cacao production of Surinam is 

 distributed over the Dutch, the English and the North- 

 American Markets. 



The home consumption is of little moment, and is even so 

 trifling, that it is not even taken in account on the mass.
