W. J. Humphreys Of the United States
weather bureau at Washington The

To get one gulp of water enough
fog to fill a space 3 by by 100 feet
would have to be condensed. In fog
that size there are 60UO,oOO 900. 600

from you for fencing. l had the posts

the wire. AS soon as the news of

order for wire at Umtali, our nearest
railway point, 10 miles away, and
am expecting it to arrive here next
month. With the money you sent
we were able to buy 3 1O0-rod rolls
of barbed wire, so you see that money
for fencing doesn't go very far in
this land so far from the land of pro
duction. By the time they add ocean

and by so doing we were able to land
here at Mt Silinda at a cost of 8
pence (6c) per yard, $50 rods Of wire
netting that costs 1O-pence per yard
if purchased in this country. You
may readily see from this that it pays
to import all our necessities as far as
possible from the good old L. S. A.
