be admitted that this circumstance,
in the main, has caused the drought
to be more injurious to the soil. 1t
is therefore a matter of benefit to
the community of st. Croix to pre-
serve the remaining trees, and to
develop reforestation. The super
vision and management of these en-
deavours must be given to the Ayr
cultural Experiment Station, which,
see s 2 of the draft, is intended to
render assistance in the superinten-
dance of the Small Holdings, and to
attend to the various matters in con
n~ection herewith, receiving in re-
turn a yearly grant of Frcs. 10000
from the Fund.
I. See the remarks made to 6.
Concerning the Agricultural FIX
pertinent Station the following ir-
formation is hereby given. 1t is in
stituted pursuant to Ordinance of
g. September 1910 concerning the
providing of means for the estab-
fishing and working Of an Ayr cul-
tural Experiment Station in st.
Croix.

eminent to spend of the means of
the Colonial Treasury of st. Croix
the sum of Frcs. $4,000 for estab-
fishing the station and for a period
of 10 years to spend Frcs. $4,000
yearly from the means of the st.
Croix Immigration Fund, for the
working of the station, also for the
anne period FIRES. 1900 yearly from
the means of St. Croix Colonial
Treasury.
BY Ordinance of IA March 1911
the Government was further autho-
rized to spend an amount of FIRES.
21,200 of the means Of the Immi-
grafton Fund for the purpose of
acquiring lands and buildings for
the station. BY the aid of this
grant a plot of land was bought
from estate Annals Hope, where the
station was then established, with
the object of combating diseases IN
- sugar e8He-aHd- cotton plants try
new varieties, and on the whole
guide the planters. Later on the
rest of estate Annals Hope was ac-
quired, pursuant to Ordinance of
g. August 1914 concerning the eX-
tension of the Agricultural Expert
ment Station in St Croix established
by Ordinance of IA March 1911.
s.. This amount is estimated.
s 2. The establishing and supervision
of the Small Holdings is intended
to be placed in the hands of a
Board, as is the case in the Mother
Country; the composition of the
Board however owing to the differ
ence of conditions in the West In
dies, must be different, just as it's
scope must be more extensive, since
the Board on behalf of the Small
Holdings Fund will have to buy land
for parcelling out, and for establish
ing and offering the Small Holdings
for sale. Concerning the grant TO

S 8. This 5 corresponds with S 2 of the
Small Holdings Law for the Mother
Country, with a few amendments.
s A. See s 3 of the Small Holdings
Law for the Mother Country; the 5
years uninterrupted residence in the
Danish West India Islands is, owing
to the special conditions in the West
Indies, placed on the same footing
as right of nativity.
s 5. Each small holding is intended to
contain 5 acres good land. In view
of former experience, it is not ex-
pedient to let these holdings depend
alone on the cultivation of sugar

5 it is difficult to set up a fixed budget
lis matter, and also to render 1t pos
E that the savings of one item can be
led over to the others, it is proposed
the amounts granted go to a Fund to
-dministrated by the Government under
supervision of the Minister Of Finance.
.ncerning the above items Is, the
owing remarks are made:
L. The purchasesum of an estate for
parcelling out cannot be exactly
stated, but it is supposed that
an estate suitable for the purpose
and sufficiently near the Agriculture
al Experiment Station at Annas
Hope, SO that a constant inspection
from there can take place, can be
bought for the price stated.
1t is assumed, that no live stock
will be had with the estate. If such
be had with the estate, the stock can
be devided among the small holders
(who will only have use for mich
cows) for a reasonable price, accord
ing to valuation, which is added to
the small holders debt to the State
Treasury.
For those small holders, who in
this manner do not get a milch COW,
provisions must be made the follow
ing year, to aid them to procure one
on the same terms.
In stating the cost of erecting the
houses, it is assumed, that materials,
especially hewn stones from old
buildings, will be found on the pro-
perty acquired. If this condition
does not exist, then each house will
perhaps cost Frcs.100 more in build
ing, consequently Frcs. 1000 more
for 20 houses.
It is intended to build the houses
of wood, on q stone foundation, with
a roof of galvanized iron. Each
house will be fitted up with 2 rooms
to give sufficient space for a family.
1t is assumed, that the estate hat IS
to be purchased is, at any rate part
ly, out of cultivation, and that the
land will require a preparatory
working up, in order to make 1t pro-
ductive.
To do this work, individuals who
later on can be taken in corsidera-
ton in the distribution of Small
Holdings, see S Z of the draft, should
have the preference.
This work is calculated to cost
about Frcs. $500; the balance of the
estimated amount will be used for
purchasing plants and seed for
sowing.
4. The question Of water supply is-of
great consequence for the island in
general, and especially for the small
holders, and the most satisfactory
conditions for establishing small
holdings scattered over the whole
island can only be arrived at by
building water works on a large
scale, eventually in connection with
a system of irrigation.
The estimated amount of Frcs.
5000 has ouly in view the necessity
of digging wells in order to find a
plentiful supply of good drinking
water, and if necessary, pits in the
earth with solid bottom and af1ux
of rain water, for procuring drink
ing water for the live stock.
). The lots are intended fenced in with
wire attached to posts. For this
purpose, and for the surveyors
work, an amount of Frcs. 1000 is
calculated.
!. The scarcity of water in st. Croix is
in close connection with the scarcity
of trees.

REMARKS TO THE DRAFT OF LAW.

During the second reading of Draft of
Law concerning Additional Money Bill
for the fiscal year l9l4-15, various n
ditions in the Danish West India Islands
were discussed, among them the wishes of
the native population of st. Croix to come
in possession of small lots of land.
This matter has been deliberated on
with the Governor of the Islands during
his stay in Copenhagen, and on the basis
of these deliberations the present draft
has been framed in connection with the
Law of 18th June 1914 concerning the
establishment of Small Holdings.
Concerning the different 5 5 the following
is remarked:
Ad 81.
The yearly grant of Fir. 100, 100000 is
estimated according to the following cal
culation:
1. Pnrchasesum of an estate (of about
200 acres good land) 80. Fir. $4,000
2. Building 20 houses at Fir.

army posts here will resume regular
drills and duty after the Christmas
holiday, during which only the most
necessary duties were performed.

to resume work after the period OF
idleness and pleasure.

was not observed with the elaborate
festivities that marked Christmas
celebrations, the custom in the army
being to make Christmas the leading
holiday of the year. At all the posts
today officers and ladies are making
