munlcatlon with the outside
world. They are also ANXIOUS,

help to make his section pros
porous. The crops, he states,
are in fine condition. Every
thing is doing we'll and the
fields never looked better than
they do now. In his opinion

communication, other than the

markets to bring prosperity to
the entire section on that side
