The appalling extent OF the fam
Inc in India is indicated by
the statement that the districts
affected by the scarcity include
about two-thirds OF the country. and
those suffering actual famine include
about utone-fourthof the whole. The fam
Inc districts contain more than eigh-
ty million people. The government has
instituted public works to give em-
ployment TO the needy. and at last
accounts the number was about two
million. and was increasing rapidly.
At the shortest. the famine must con-
tinue four or 1--WE months longer. and
II the June monsoon should be dis
appointing II might be continued much
beyond that time. Some previous fam
ines have been more acute than this.

tenido por parte de los productores ell apoyo a
que su mismo interes les obligaba prestar las
festas objeto de estas lfneas, y, conse-

los concursos agrfcolas-no han podido alcanzar
