China's Canal System.

From the Himalayan mountains east
ward to the present Pacific coast, a
distance OF more than 1900 miles. the
country was formed by successive
elevations Of vast mountain chains.
The valleys intervening between these
ranges contained rich alluvial soil,
well suited for the raising Of immense
crops for the sustenation of man and
beast. Added to this ia the great
plain stretching from the Yangtse river
nOrthward to the great China wall.
This Is vast prairie formed by the
loss that came drifting down from the
deserts OF the north. This plain is In
tersected by numerous canals, most
important OF which Is the Grand canal.
This network OF canals has for untold
ages furnished people with the mode
Of transportation. and also water sup
ply for the irrigation Of the land.
