RICE PROSPECTS IN SOUTH CHINA.
PROGRESS OF SANNING NAILWAY SCHEME,
(Eitan a Correspondent.]
Shui Hau Hoi Ping, 20th July. The first crop of rice for the present year is fair, though there are many Chinese who say that it might be better, but on the whole it is á fair yield and ought to go far to reimburse the Chinese farmers for their aiduous toil, because from the time the rice seedlings are planted until the harvest it means one series of toil and hardship: Watch those men and even woman pinning the seedlings, covered pilen from head stand in the water up to their kodes in trang:

But from the first forrow made with the plough until the rice is ready for the kettle it means hard manual labour for all. good rice crop is fraught with great blessings it means filled larders, but what has always impressed me most, is the fact that it means fewer highway robberies, less thiering, less purloining and less piratical exploits, hence 1 am always anxious that the Chinese should have good crops, for it often means safety to Chinese as well as foreign residents.

The road-bed his been laid to the distance of one or two miles and for each cubic yard of road laid there is paid $1.10.

In two or three months the new market town Kung Yik will be built and this will, in all probability, become the chief centre of the rail- road where the workshops will be situated. It. is said that the reason the centre is not placed at San Cheung Fau is because there is no mutual agreement between the above-named market and the adjoining market of Tik Hoi.

In the Samping region there is a number of tigers, also in the Hoi Fu and Yeung Kong ( regions. Occasionally they come very close to the sea, and despoil the villagers of their pigs and dogs. In many of these places the people would be glad to tell these mighty hunters where the tigers are to be found and where they have carried on their last de predations.
