The Rise of Maize as a Major Crop Plant in the Philippines
The domestication and diffusion of crop plants as a major theme in cultural geography has several sub-themes of consuming interest. The literatures of geography, economic history, ethnology and regional economy make many passing references to the times and sources of new crop plant introductions in many parts of the world. Maize today holds the second ranking position, behind rice, among the food staples of the Philippines. The agricultural lands…

Rice in Malaya. A Study in Historical Geography
Rice is a staple part of the diet of virtually every Malaysian, to the extent that in each of the major languages used in Malaysia, rice means food and food means rice. Drawing on a wide range of sources, Rice in Malaya opens with an examination of the often fragmentary evidence of rice-growing in prehistoric South-East Asia and then considers the great changes that followed the rise of commercial agriculture in the region before and during colon…

La maîtrise de l'eau en Asie du Sud-Est
A travers l'Asie du Sud-Est, le champ irrigué domine les paysages cultivés. Diverses techniques de régulation de l'eau (mais non de sa maîtrise totale) sont pratiquées de très longue date dans les vallons et les bas-pays de montagne, mais dans les grandes plaines et les deltas, les agriculteurs ont dû se contenter de l'inondation naturelle par les crues, soit en plantant du riz flottant, soit en mettant en culture les terres exondées et les bords…
The Nature of Agricultural Systems
Many problems as to the origins of, and differences in, agricultural practice around the earth are still unsolved. A persistent question concerns the number of different kinds of agriculture. Varied approaches and conceptual formulations have been employed, but these often mix together the bases for categorization, whereas there are marked differences between concepts aimed at grouping by regions, typologies, and systems. Differences in the conce…

Chinese Place Names and the Appreciation of Geographic Realities
T HE fascination of maps derives not a little from the language spoken by their cover of place names. Many of these have grown out of the everyday life and experiences of the inhabitants. Mixed in among these lowly native names may be regional names supplied by explorers, geographic boards, or planning commissions, by historical events or changing political boundaries. There are the recurring names that evidence migration of a people or a culture…
Changing Chungking
HE transference of the seat of the national government of China from Nanking to Chungking has given an impetus to the growth of that strategically located city, nearly fourteen hundred miles from the sea at the confluence of the Yangtze and Kialing Rivers. The city, which was opened to foreign trade in i89i,' is the first commercial entrepot and the financial center of the province of Szechwan. The municipality of Chungking normally has a populat…

Gypsum and Salt Mining in Central Hupeh, China
G YPSUM deposits occur in a number of places in China, but most of the country's supply has long been derived from mines in the Yincheng district in central eastern Hupeh, some distance northwest of Hankow (Figure 1). The present manner of working these mines presents several interesting features. The Yincheng district has produced gypsum for about four hundred years and the mining field has narrowed to a compact area lying just northwest of the …

The Szechwan Village Fair
] N many parts of the world the village fair is an intimate part of rural economy. Most Chinese villages hold fair day at some time during every month of the year. The frequency of these fairs and the volume of business transacted is one measure of the prosperity of a district. Normally the village fair in China is not an exhibition event as is the American fair of today. The occasionally held exhibition fair is now to be found in large cities an…
