ADVANTAGES OF LIBERIA.
Prof. q. f. Cook Speaks of the African
Republic.


Prof. O. +. Cook. of Huntington /.
l., who has spent the winter in I.iIs-ria.
Africa, studying the plant and animal
life of that region, has returned 10 H.
home. He says, accoriing 10 the Repul,-
lie, that the advantages of Africa as
a place of residence, even for the white
race. are but imperfectly understood.
Liberia is naturally no more unheaIth-
full than other tropical countries. in
which civilization has taken root. such
as India and South America. and. as in
these cases, the heslthfulness increases
the forests are cleared away and bel
ter conditions of life rendered possible.
through Improvements in transporter
tion. Mr.. Cook has spent several sen
sons in Africa in pursuing his inye~ti-
cation in the interest of the American
and the New York State Colonization
societies. with a view to aScertaiuiGtrr
the possibility of resuming. under new.
plans, tine colonization of Liberia with
negroes from the United States. He.
says former movements in that direc-
tion have failed through want OF proper
management rather than on account OF
any msurmountable difficulties inher-
eDt in the idea of colonization OF In r4l,.
I.ature of the country where settlements
of American negroes were attempted.
That something is possible. ne SAYS.
is demonstrated by the fact that many
colonists who left America Is or 2a wears
ago with nothing have now coffee
farms. yielding incomes greater than
their owners can spend, while others
have achieved independence in much
less time
