Having performed his task Mr. von Schucklng Is now In New His report to the syndicate York. will be highly favorable to the project. He found land that will yield several crops a year below the frost line with abundant water for Irrigation wherever needed, rich in possibilities of varied development and with a government which promises stability and full protection tor property. Speaking of the subject of the report he will make to the syndicate, he said: "It has been well Bald that if the capital expended on mining in Mexico had been applied to the cultivation of the soil the country would have been four times as rich as at present. "As regards the natural conditions of vegetation throughout the country, It is estimated that there exist some 5700 square miles of dense forests, 250,000 squaye miles of lands and over 500,000 square miles of uncultivated lands. The states of Oaxaca and Chiapas have no rival, not even Brazil, In the possibilities of production of excellent grades of coffee in unlimited quantities; the plateau ca nproduce unlimited quantities of wheat, even to supply foreign markets; Vera Cruz, Tabasco, Tepic and Tamaulipas are capable of replacing Cuba not only In sugar, but also In the quality and quantity of tobacco. The northern states could supply pasture for millions of cattle. "The peons have little Initiative and while they will work well under supervision they would be likely to fall as independent farmers. Many of them, given a piece of land, would not know what to do with It. It Is essential, therefore, to encourage Immigration from Europe and America. Such colonists would not only prosper and add to national wealth, but their - example would stimulate - the Indian in ideas as to farming. "Such lands should be sold In tracts of varying size according to the character of the soil and climatic terconditions.1 In the ritory where the soil Is very richa and. there. Is abundaift rainfall, farm of forty acres would be large enough for an average family, while in the north where the land Is only suitable for ranching, especially in the states of Chihuahua, Nuevo Leon and Coahuila, the settler would need at least 1000 acres. It is my firm belief that In many districts dryfarming could be successfully developed on a large scale. "Establishment of a great modern colonization enterprise In Mexico today would undoubtedly be the foundation of a great agrarian development and therefore the salvation of the country. .
