Again in 1922 the Southern District has in the main experienced a prosperous year. There has accordingly been a marked decrease in the number of disputes brought to the notice of the District Officer.
Tai 0.-Business was extremely good during the year under review. The fishing season was also good, very nearly the same amount as during 1921 being taken, which was disposed of at a slightly higher rate. Two thousand piculs less of salt were produced, but the pans are all in good order and are, I think, doing profitable business. The rice and sweet potato crops were better than in the previous year. They are all consumed locally. All

VII-GENERAL,
Again in 1922 the Southern District has in the main experienc- ed a prosperous year. There has accordingly been a marked decrease in the number of disputes brought to the notice of the District· Officer.
Tai 0.-Business was extremely good during the year under review. The fishing season was also good, very nearly the same amount as during 1921 being taken, which was disposed of at a slightly higher rate. Two thousand piculs less of salt were produc- ed, but the pans are all in good order and are, I think, doing profitable business.
