GROWTH OF THE PRINTING AND LITHOGRAPHIC INDUSTRIES. 



I have no statistics at hand for the whole consular district, but 

 only for the province of Milano, showing the number of printing 

 establishments as far back as 1818. However, the following is a 

 brief account of the growth from that date. In 1818, there were 14 

 printing establishments in this province; in 1,850 there were 35, in 

 1856 the.e were 39, and in 1893 there were no; to-day there are, as 

 above stated, 305.
