T he refiners have finished the ir raw product a n d the m a rk e t waits for the product of the A m erican soil—the beet sugar w hich will be tu rn e d upon t lie m a rk e t to relieve the distress just as soon as the beats are de livered to th e factory in such q u a n tity as w ill insure a supply large enough to keep th e mills going w ithout s h u t downs. Sugar factories are so constituted th a t they must ru n day and night, every day in the week, after they once begin the campaign, w h e n a factory shuts down, a great expense follows, and this e x pense th e factory m anagers aim to avoid.

The sooner they commence work, the quicker will th e shortage disappear. Christmas Mail to Enlisted Men. From the Navy D e p a rtm e n t, W a sh in g ton, D. C.
