To  these  expenses  corresponds  a  revenue  of  30  kg.  of  oil,  each 
selling  at  35  francs,  that  is,  1050  francs;  the  net  proceeds  per  hec- 
tare amount,  then,  to  500  francs. 
Grec  (Reveil  agricole,  May  26th,  1901)  estimates  40,000'  kg. 
of  leaves  per  hectare;  according  to  him,  100  kg.  yield  a  net  proceed 
of  from  5  to  5 1/2  francs,  so  that  a  hectare  would  yield  2000  francs. 
This  estimate  seems  to  have  been  made  for  French  plantations. 
There  the  expenses  would  naturally  be  greater  than  in  Algeria.
