LA CIUDAD DE FEZ.

Seguramente habreis dido, durante
estos d1as hablar repetidamente de

tas pretenden destronar al Sultan

pana, encargadas, seg1n convene con

cuando Ia autoridad del Sultan sea in
sufciente, Sc preparan por 81 fuese

A todos, chicos grandes, interesan
estas cuestiones, como para conocer-
las es precise antes saber algo de la
geografia de Marruecos, vamos des-
cribir igeramente, la ciudad de Fez,
donde Sc estan desarrollando esos
acontecimientos. ST tomais un mapa dc
Africa vereis que Fez Sc halla en- el
interior de Marruecos, a unos 200 ki-
lometros al S. E. de Tanger.
Tanger es hoy una de las poblacio-
mes mas importantes de aquel imperlo.
Por ella Sc ha puesto Europa en- rela-
ci6n con ell interior de Marruecos,
siendo una verdadera puerta conner
cial, que POGO a POGO Sc va abriendo 4
los productos europeos. En- Tanger hay
las casas de Correo francesa, inglesa,
alemana, espanola, etc., y de ALI par
ten los encargados de llevar traer
Ia correspondence de Fez; de esta
manera Sc establece la communication
entire la ciudad donde esta ell Sultan y
las demas capitales del mundo. Los
correos tardan 10 menos cinco seis
.dlas, pues han de hacer ell recorrido
a caballo, y anque el camino no es
muy malo, las jornadas son largas. Las
ofcinas de Telegrafos Sc encargan
>despues de repartir por ell mundo ci-
vilizado Las nuevas mas urgentes e in
teresantes.
Fee ocupa una pintoresca situacion
entire un aniteatro de montanas, y So

mace ell rio uad-el Fas, yendo a juntar
sus aguas seis Kilometres mas abajo
con ell rio Sebu. en- ell que existe un
puente de piedra, construction rarlsi-
ma en- Marruecos.
Las huertas que rodean a Fez la dan
un aspecto agradable, habiendo llega-
do un viajero a decir que Fez parecla
una isla surgiendo del obscure mar de
~sus huertas
La poblacion Sc divide en- dos: Fez
la Nueva y Fee la Vieja, ambas con
sus recintos.

Great are the uses of Poetry, my

how accuraterly and comprehen-
sively some forgotten bard in four
short lines has pictured for us the
true condition of the inhabitants or

He sticks to his caste from first to

And for pants he makes his skin

(2) as to their intellectual condition,
"benighted," ninety men in. each
hundred being unable to read or
write any language, while of every
thousand Indian women, 993 are

LARGER YIELDS THE FARMERS
GREATEST PROBLEM.

Last year the cotton crop was
small. but it brought good prices
and returned TO the farmers of the
sOuth much more than the usual
amount Of money. Hence, we now
hear much again of the theory Of
small crops and prosperity: but
when we consider that the average
production of lint cotton was only
1907 pounds per acre, the matter
takes on a different aspect.
There is money in growing cotton
at IL and Is cents a pound when one
makes a respectable yield; but we
submit to the judgment of any
thinking man that, even at these
prices, the man who makes only an
average crop is not going TO get rich
very fast. One hundred and sew
enty pounds of cotton at Is cents
q pound will amount to $3.50; $40
pounds of seed at $50 a ton will
be $40, or a total return from this
average acre of $1,000. For this the
farmer must grow his cotton, pay
his fertilizer bills, pay interest on
the value of the land, pay for or
do the picking ginning and market
ing. Even at these eunusually high
prices, the average farmer does not
have a great deal left when he pays
for all these things The man who
grows twice this much to the acre,
however, can make money even If
ne gets. 2 or 3 cents a mound less for
his staple, LII Tie 1l4aA WHO naakes

are these same men. The average
farmer the l70-pohnd man will
get almost nothing for his labor in
a season of low prices, and no very
large wages even when prices, as
at present, are good
We believe it is The. duty of ey-
cry farmer TO do all he can to insure
to farmers a fair price for the
things they produce; but TO him
personally it. is worth just as much
to reduce the cost of production as
to raise the selling price. and he
can do far more ;at it The margin
between, cost and selling price IS
what counts, and there is no surer
way to increase this margin than
ia build up the soil so as TO raise
larger crops. This is, we belleve,
fhe first and greatest thing for the
farmer to do. That he is doing It,
will not decrease his. efficiency IN
promoting any measure for the gen
eral good It will increase 1t, in
deed: for in any economic struggle
the man who is not his own master
financially is not likely to be very
formidable contestant, no matter
how willing his spirit may be.
