Breeding Stock for Chili. — A good opening is reported from 

 Chili for British breeders of bulls and cows to do business at 

 Talcahuano with local breeders. The British Vice-Consul says : 

 " There is a marked inclination to improve stocks by inter- 

 breeding with British cattle, and I shall be only too pleased to 

 furnish interested people with names of dealers here. Another 

 good way would be to advertise in a Chilian newspaper, quoting 

 prices placed on board in a British port." {Foreign Office, 

 Annual Series ; 3,465.) 



C/iemical Manures for Spain. — The British Consul at Malaga 

 (Mr. J. G. Haggard) reports that in view of the increasing amount 

 of attention which is being drawn to the importance of the use of 

 chemical manures on a much larger scale in Spain, it is only 

 reasonable to suppose that agriculturists will be larger buyers 

 than heretofore, and British manufacturers will probably find it 

 worth their while to give some special attention to the Malaga 

 market. Their Continental competitors are already doing so. 

 Whilst imports from the United Kingdom under this head 

 were slightly smaller in 1904 than in the previous years, those 

 from Germany and France showed a considerable increase.
