tions just giyen.-Dr. Forbes IPiatskOlo.

OF gold but to be covered with a soil Of
unequaled capabilities, For grain, pas
turage, grapes and fruits, no spot on earth 1
is more richly favored, and the products
so far exceed the home demand that they
afford export rettirhs far exceeding in
amount TIE annual gold production. Dur

tells us s12, 100000 Of -four and wheat
