Excerpt from Sugar Cane in Porto Rico
Sugar, one of the principal commercial products of the World, is obtain ed practically from two sources, the sugar cane and the sugar beet. For a long time it was largely obtained from the sugar cane, but later, because of certain economic and political reasons, the sugar beet became quite a factor in the production of sugar, in time even surpassing in amount the production of the sugar cane. While sugar can be produced more economically from the sugar cane, yet the sugar beet has for various causes held the position for a number of years of exceeding it in total yield of sugar. This has been for two reasons, first, because of certain tariffs and bounties favoring it and, second, because of the scientific breeding and care employed in cultivating and manufacturing beet root sugar.
Sugar produced from cane has been so long used that its beginning is not clearly known. It was doubtless obtained very early in the history of mankind and its use widely diffused. Even to - day a great deal of cane sugar is produced in obscure quarters of the globe by very primitive means and is consumed locally, the statistics not reaching the chronicles of trade.
