These lands, although located in the mountains, are usually well watered, and covered 

 with soil that is adapted to the growing of coffee, cacao, citrus fruits, mangoes, grapes, and in 

 fact, any fruit known to the tropical world. They will also support most of our forage crops 

 and hence can be used advantageously as small stock farms and goat ranches. 



Conclusiot^. 



Cuba is more than anxious to have people of the better class visit her shores in search of 

 permanent homes, and will do all that is possible to facilitate homeseekers in selecting locations 

 that may give the best promise of success. Custom duties are not collected on household 

 effects that have seen use in other countries, ttnd most of ovir railroad companies offer tran.«por- 

 tation free to families who will establish permanent homes along their lines. 



Unless poor health necessitates a change in climate do not think of coming to Cuba with 

 the idea of securing a clerical position since these and the trades command only about one 

 half the salary paid in the United States, and remember that a knowledge of the Spanish lan- 

 guage i essential in securing any position salaried in this country. 



Remember also that this Bureau is ready at all times to assist and advise homeseekers 

 in every way possible and without expense of any kind.
