LATIN AMERICA U
USE HER LAND BETTER
U. S. REPORT STATES

WASHINGTON, August 4. CUPID
- The Department of Agriculture
has published a report in which
1t says that if the ever increasing
population of Latin America wants
q higher standard of living it must
take better advantage of its land,
improve transport systems, and use
more hydrolic power in its in
lustries.
The Department published an
agricultural geography of Latin
America, with a complete survey
of crops, and of production and
the agricultural and cattle raising
industry with relation to the ex,
port demands and needs of Latin
America.
The report says that the popula.
ton in the 20 republics has increas.
ed from 72,000,0 900 inhabitants in
1900 to 1870, 600, 900 in 1856. In
little more than half a century
there has been a 1909 increase,
pointing out the fact that the birth
rate of 1000 is more than double
that of the U. S.
In the future the birth rate may
drop as illiteracy decreases and
standards of living improve and
cultural standards change. On the
other hand, the, death rate will
probably drop because of better
control of tropical diseases, and
Improvement of public health pro-
grams, medical attention, and child
birth care.
