A Japanese industry which has made considerable progress during the past few years is the manufacture of condensed milk. Tho Japan Weekly Chronicle estimates the production for 1919 at 1,200,000 cases of four dozen tins each, valued at, say, £600,000, which about meets the homo consumption. Besides this, however, there is imported annually an average of £100.000 worth of foreign milk, but the excess of supply over demand is avoided by exportation to China and the South Sea Islands. During the current year it is forecasted that tho production will bo increased by approximately 30 per cent. The progress made by this branch of Japan's industry is due to the stoppago of imports caused by the wax,, tho special protection given by the Government, and also by various privileges granted to Japanese manufacturers of condensed milk.
