» Deutsche Zuckerindustrie, vol. 48, No. 42. Oct. 20, 1923, p. 607. The visible supply at the end of the 
season 1921-22 is reported to be 66.598 short tons, while the visible supply employed at the beginning of the 
season 1922-23 is 106,089 short tons, a difference of 39,491 tons. ! he seasonal disappi

u Deutsche Zuckerindustrie, vol. 49, No. 41, Oct. 11, 1924, p. 1199. The German sunar industry gives 
two figures for the visible supply on Aug. 31, 1923— first, the calculated supply i i;i. the offi- 
cially reported supply of 173,659. This gives a difference of 84,006 short tons. The reported disappearance 
of domestic sugar is placed at 1,433,685 short tons. Adding to this the above different i tal dis- 
appearance of 1,517,691 tons.
