The true guarantee of the future continued prosperity of Ceylon is not to be found in the fluctuating harvest of the sea. It lies rather in her magnificent geographical position her ready command of cheap labour , her superb climate, and the amazing fecundity wit which Nature, out of a lean rathe than a fat soil, pours forth her fruits answer to human toil . As an emporium f commerce, a coaling station, and a half/way house for the far East, China, and Australia, the place of Ceylon on the map is unrivalled; Includes bibliographical references and index.
