LOUISIANA SUGAR CANE, 1919 

 The January issue of Sugar contains 

 the following: 



The sugar cane crop of 1919 in Louis- 



iana was one of the shortest on record. 

 The trouble began with poor seed, and 

 was further augmented by imfavorable 

 climatic conditions, scarcity of labor, etc., 

 resulting in grassj' fields, uneven stands, 

 and low yields. 



It is estimated that the cane crop of 

 1018 had a value of .$43,577,000 to the 

 producers on the plantations where the 

 cane was grown. The estimates of syrup 

 and sugar production for 1919 are pre- 

 liminary and final figures covering the 

 farm values of the sugar cane produced 

 and the monetary value of the syrup and 

 sugar manufactured will be compiled and 

 issued in the spring of 1920.
