 daily for extract and 350 for corned beef making. Stock- 

 raising is the basic industry of Northern Paraguay, and the 

 North Americans have invested large suuls of money in the

 spent 1,000,000 dollars in the Paraguayan Chaco, which is 

 practically unknown, and which, when opened up, should afford 

 excellent pastures.
