ir. The Parana. 



E. A. S. Delachaux, " Los problemas geograficos del 

 territorio Argentino " [Rev. Univ. Buenos Aires, 1906, v), 

 includes a study of the floods of the Parana. 



The chief source is the memoir of Repossini, " Memoria 

 sobre el rio Parana " {Bol. Obras Publicas, vol. vi, 1912, 

 pp. 141-168 and 254-264, vol. vii, 1912, pp. 31-48 and 

 163-186, and vol. viii, 1913, pp. 33-99)- It contains on a 

 reduced scale the map issued by the Ministry of Public Works, 

 which is not available in France. The defect is supplied 

 by the English Admiralty Charts, " Rio de la Plata," 

 1869 (No. 2544 in the Catalogue of Admiralty Charts), and 

 " River Parana," parts i, ii, iii, iv, v, and vi of 1905 (Nos. 

 1982/A and 1982/B). 



There is an interesting economic summary in W. S. Barclay, 

 " The River Parana, an economic survey " [Geogr. Journal, 

 xxxiii, 1909, pp. i-io). 



On the estuary : —

 {An. Soc. Cient. Argent., Iii, 1901, pp. 209-234).

 " II rio della Plata " {Bol. Soc. Geol. Ital., xxx, 1911). 



12. Population. 



Besides municipal and provincial censuses, there have 

 been three general censuses : 



First census made in 1869, one folio volume published 

 in 1872. I have only been able to consult Oficina del Censo. 

 Informe sobre la operacion y resultado del Primer censo argen- 

 tino (Buenos Aires, 1870, octavo). 



Second census of the Argentine Republic, May 10, 1895 

 (2 vols, quarto, Buenos Aires, 1898). 



Tercer Censo Nacional levantado el 1° de junio de 1914 (10 

 vols, quarto, Buenos Aires, 1916-1917). Only the fifth 

 volume, on agriculture, is not yet to hand. 



A geographical interpretation of the distribution of the 

 population was attempted by E. A. S. Delachaux, " La 

 poblaci6n de la Rep. Argent." {Rev. Univ. Buenos Aires, 

 iii, 1905).
