Is much larger than the production. The
brewers of that country require 560,500
cwt. annually, according to the govern
ment's figures. This year, with the
English hop crop only 250.000 to 300,
000 cwt., there will be import require
ments of 285,500 cwt., taking an aver
age of all estimates. The German crop
and brewery needs are about equal this
year, so the English beer manufac
turers will have only the small Amer
ican surplus to help them out. There
is, however, somewhere- in the world
a surplus of a few hundred thousand
hundredweight that was. carried over
from last year. This is probably so
widely distributed that it will not help
the English brewers much.
