According to preliminary reports, the irriga- tion works to be undertaken by the Japanese [[]] Formoss will involve an expenditure, of $15,000,000 gold, to be divided into annual ex- penditures of $750,0 0 gold. It is ibe intention of the Governmani to issue bonds for this amount. There are in Formosa about 750,000 Incres of land planted in rice, one-hall of which

Atlantic and Pacific. The Canadian Pacific performs a considerable feat in carrying the mails from England' to tongkang in twenty. nine days or less, having regard to the length of the journey and the stops at Japanese ports; but mails from London can be landed at Shanghai by the Siberian Railway in twenty days or less, and no nëw service which money could place on the Cana dian route 'could possibly do as well as that. All ihal can be accomplished by the All-Red' project through Canada is the reduction of time for passengers, between England and Australia, and between England, China and Japan, though in the latter instance the Biberian route will al- ways be the quicker. Freight between these countries will continue to go by the all-water routes. It may be doubted whether the Cana- dian line could reduce freight tates, but, if they succeeded in doing so, if they give us lower, export rates then we cow enjoy, they would to that extent be employing the British portion of At their subsidy in augmenting Canadian competi- tion with the British farmer, which, from his' point of view, would be rather absurd."
