Manufacturing in Siberia.
From Casters Magazine
In Siberia We have what is practically
a new country, larger than all Europe
put together watered everywhere by i'm
mense rivers and crossed through its CEN
ter by trunk line of railway. with min
eral riches untold. with large and thirty
ing towns at intervals from one end to
the other, many of them with populations
Of more than 100000. and with an immi-
grafton of more than 10000 souls a year
1t Is land with a soil OF wonderful
fertility. exporting millions of pools OF
agricultural produce annually, an aeri-
culture which is increasing rapidly every
year.
1t has. however. no manufactures to
speak Of, considering its size: few spin.
ming mills and weaving Sheds and hardly
any engineering works. Shipbuilding
yards. leather works. etc. worthy of the
name. and but few of its mines worked
in an up-to-date manner
IN Siberia manufactures are needed in
all the large trading centers, and il run
on modern commercial lines, they would
pay handsomely. At the present time
there are hundreds of little works scat
tered about at long distances apart many
Of them run by horsepower and others
without any power at all, but with every
thing done by hand: most of them are
worked with the crudest appliance and in
the most primitive manner. They are
mostly In the ownership of people of lin
tied education and small capital, working
almost from hand to mouth, so that they
are unable to make proper extensions to
their business, and are thus kept within
a narrow trading limit.
