por
estimated by the manager at 656,646lb., and u the quantity kurvasted for the first three months was 187,6271b, there is good resson to hope that the official estimate will be consid- erably arooled. After writing off the whole of the preliminary oxpousse, and reserving £250 for income tax, the profit amounts to £83,470. The directors recommend a final dividend of 164 por cont. (making 24 per cent. For the year), and carry forward £2,123.

The average price obtained was Es. 2.45d. por. h., after dedacting all charges.
