THE CUBA REVIEW 



39 



THE PROSPECTIVE CROP 



United States Consul James L. Rodgers 

 at Havana reports under date of October 

 31st that "a week of general rains through- 

 out Cuba has changed somewhat the esti- 

 mates of the 1914 sugar crop. Up to a 

 week ago there had been insufficient rains 

 in manj- sections, which, combined with the 

 eflfects of lack of cultivation of the cane in 

 some districts, owing to restricted financial 

 ability primarily, induced the conclusion 

 that the output of 1914 would be con- 

 siderably less than in 1913. But the rains 

 which have come at so important a period 

 in the cane crop will undoubtedly help a 

 great deal." 



There is no doubt now that with the 

 prospects for the cane and the fine con- 

 dition of the larger and more modern 

 mills, there can be a close approach if the 

 weather is as favorable as in 1913. 



Willett & Gray's advance estimate of the 

 1913-14 Cuban sugar crop is 2,400,000 tons.
