A Rich Islander.

The business of the little cluster of
islands which lie in the Pacific ocean
Just off the southwest coast of Pata-
gonia is sheep-raising and selling, and
IS nearly all in the hands of one man.
Mr.. Kerr by name, who is the govern
or. He went there many years ago as
a poor man, and is now worth more
than $5,O)O,OOJ. There are no bushes
or trees of any kind on the islands, and
the entire surface is covered with a
bed of peat many feet thick and of
good quality. There is sufficient fuel
to supply the world for an indefinite
length of time Covering the peat is a
thick growth of short, but very nutrit-
ious, grass. upon which the sheep
thrive wonderfully well. The number
of sheep on the islands is about 4O0,-
900. These islands are very high, the
hills rising many hundreds of feet, and
are covered with points of sharp rocks
that sonnet mes rise 200 or 800 feet
atove the surface of the peat. 1t rains
nearly every Gay in the year, and as
the peat is water soaked, the water
stands in pools everywhere. 1t seems
to be unable to run down the hills and
the hilltops are nearly as wet as the
valleys.
