NATURE’S INSTITUTION FOR THE PROMOTION OF LAZINESS

By EDWARD W. PERRY

COPYRIGHTED

BY HARRY WILKIN PERRY

REVISED EDITION

NOTE

The chapter given in the following pages is from a work entitled: “Tropical America: Its Planters and Plantations,” now in preparation. Sports Afield said of the author: “Probably no American is more competent to write of the country life than is this author, who, because of his long-trained habits of observation, careful search for the bottom facts and weighing of details, of deducing therefrom the essentials and presenting them clearly and concisely, has made the best possible use of his time and experience.”
