SDain in u Nutshell.

Spain, the country with which We
are now at war, is in Spanish Espana.
1t occupies the larger part of the south
western peninsula of Europe, and Cape
Tarifa, it's southern extremity, is also
the most southerly point of the entire
continent.
The area OF Spain is l9l, 1857 square
miles, and its population In 1890 was
l7,5OOOOO.
In 1924 the country was divided into
40 provinces, including the Balesric
and Canary Isles.
Its coast line is 1917 miles. of which
7l2 belong to tbs Mediterranean and
COS to the Atlantic. This gives the
country but one mile of coast line to
145 square miles Of area.
The climate of the country is varied.
Cattle, sheep and swine are raised in
vast herds. Fruit of all kinds, vines,
oil, rice, esparto grass and sugar are the
products of the coast regions. but the
agriculture of Spain in late years has
been depressed in competition with
America. Forty six per cent. of the
territory is uncultiyated.
Seventy per cent. of the population
are engaged in agriculture of various
kinds, and 10 or II per cent. in mining
or manufacturing industries and trade.
Catalonia is the seat of the manufactur
ing interests, mainly cotton, and the
manufacture of corks, Of which l.400,-
100000 are made annually, employing
5000 men in That province.
The minerals of the country are iron,
lead, copper, ziac. quicksilver, salt, coal
and coke.
The religion Of the country is Roman
Catholic, but certain liberation is al
lowed other denominations.

Spanish literature is among the most
notable of all the literature Of the
world, the immortal Cervantes having
given us don Quixote," Herrera his
odss and elegies, Calderon and Lope
de Vaga their immortal poems.
The Government Of Spain is hered-
itary monarchy founded on the Consti'
tuition of 1875. The Cortes consists Of
two bodies-the Senate, one third OF
which cit by hereditary right, one'third
are appointed by the sovereign for lite
and:one third are elective. The Cham
Der Of Deputies is elected at the rate OF
one member for every $4,000 inhabi-
tants.
The legal official currency is founded
like the French decimal system, the
peseta of 10 8 cents being the unit.
