    At the circumference of Zao-Volcano, there are not a few regions of mud and lava flow; and in these regions, many settlements have been newly developed since the end of the war. Among them, the three at the west foot of the Volcano, Nagano, Doshidaira and Kanno, are 550-850 metres above the sea-level. Although the altitude is rather low, the climatic condition in these settlements corresponds to that of a high, frigid zone of more than 1, 000 metres above the sea in the central part of Japan. This is because the said three settlements are situated in the north of this country.
    Doshidaira being on the way to the spa of Zao, and Nagano to the Io (sulphur) mine, and moreover, Kanno being near Yamagata City, there is a project afoot to open a sightseeing highway before long which starts from Yamagata City and leads to the spa of Zao through Kanno and Doshidaira. Naturally, these regions are easy of access, and in some parts it is already eight years since people began to bring waste land under cultivation. In spite of this fact, however, reclamation of waste land has not been fully developed. The percentage of the square measure of reclaimed land to that of arable soil is 74% in Kanno, in Nagano 54%, and 76% in Doshidaira. As to the percentage of land-utilization, it is 122%, 100% and 98% respectively. Although the harvest rate of farm products in these new settlements has nearly reached the level in other old villages, radish is the only cash-crop they can produce; which is sent out to Osaka by the agricultural co-operation as takuan (pickled radish). Since there is no paddy-field at all in these newly developed settlements, people there have to try to earn ready money by labour in order to get the staple food. This is one of the main factors which check the work of clearing land. Owing to deep snows, the soil is awfully eroded by thawing snow in early spring, and the beginning of farming in spring is delayed on account of it. The prevailing-wind is a west wind, and it is a south eastern wind that is high enough to do damage. Usually, Nagano suffers most from a typhoon, which is clear from the fact that thirteen houses out of the eighteen were utterly destroyed by the typhoon the other year. As the water in these settlements is the poisonous acid one, people there are put to inconvenience regarding irrigation and drinking water. By the Yokogawa dam, they carried out irrigation works in the thirteenth year of the Meiji era by drawing water from Miyagi Prefecture; and this facilitates irrigation today. As to the geographical features, there are little flat land in the settlements comparing in the villages at the east foot of Zao-Volcano; and consequently the regional partitions are very complicated. In Katakari area of Nagano, for example, 2.7 tan of fields per farm-house on the average consists of eleven farms. Moreover, these eleven are scattered here and there causing people much trouble and inconvenience in carrying on the fields. Perhaps it is the stock-breeding making the most of the fields that should be taken up and promoted in years to come.

    Osumi Peninsula, being located in the southern extremity of Kyushu in Japan, is far off from markets. Consequently, the agriculture in this Peninsula shows a remarkable aspect of self-sustaining. Most of the soil, however, being volcanic, there are few paddy-field, and characteristic crops are produced there. The kinds of the farming products depend upon different regions, and this regional difference clearly shows the specific feature of each region.
    By comparing the sorts of the goods shipped off from several harbors of the Peninsula in 1886, was brought to light the economical character of each hinterland of these harbours.
    Also the comparison of the agricultural products the farmers have been selling on a commercial scale during these several years enables us to understand the fact that there are several agricultural regions in the Peninsula each of which has its own specific character. Namely, Osumi Peninsula can be divided into the following five regions: (1) the region making the stock-raising the primary object, (2) the region aiming at the cultivation of the staple corn such as rice and rye, (3) the region where both the staple corn and other farming products (sweet-potato and colza-seed) are cultivated, (4-a) the region of which main object is other farming products than the staple corn (sweet-potato and colza-seed), (4-b) the region of which main object is other farming products than the staple corn (tobacco and sweet-potato), (5) the region where fruits and other arboreal production is aimed.
    On the whole, what characterizes the agriculture in the Peninsula is the cultivation of farming products which are made the raw materials for industry, such as tobacco, colza-seed and sweet-potato. Though in Japan, sweet-potato is in general use as a food, it is mostly used as the material for starch in this Peninsula. It is a matter of course that the rate of farming products they sell on a commercial scale to the total harvest is high in farming houses on a large scale, and low in those on a small one. However, the cultivation of the crops used as the raw materials for industry is widely carried on in the Peninsula regardless of the administrative scales of farming.

    Chief exported fruits Fukushima Basin are a pear: pyrus pyrifolia Nakai var Culta (Makino) Nakai. an apple: Malus Pumlia Mill. a peach: Prunus Persica Batsch, and a persimon: Diospyros Kaki Thunberg. Trucks are a hakusweetsai: Byassica Campestris L.a radish: Raphanus Acanthiformis M. and a potato: Ipomoea Batatas L. var edulis Makino.
    Main markets are Tokyo, Osaka, and Hokkaido districts. A peach and persimmon which are chiefly produced in the warmer southarea than Fukushima Basin is sent to the north (Hokkaido), and an apple which is in the cooler area is sent mostly to the south (Tokyo and Osaka). A spinach is exported for Hokkaido and a hakusai for Tokyo. Trucks for Osaka is quite little. As these, in Fukushima Basin, there are many sorts of fruits and trucks, and different sorts of them are exported for each market of the south and north. Thus, Fukushima Basin does not depend upon a single market. And all the year round the exports and trucks continue.
    This character of Fnkushima Basin is, I think, as one factor, due to its location. It is located in the southern part of Tohoku Province which extends from south to north, and in the most northern of Tosando climaticregion, -the most continental climate in Japan-. This site would have afforded it the existing of many sorts of fruits-trees and truck-vegetables.

    This investigation has its chief object in clearning the distribution of the prehistorical sites, Zyomon and Yayoi potteries form, and representing their original figures specially on the coast line of Atumi Peninsula, situated in the southern part of the Aiti Prefecture.
    1. The distribution of the sites
    a. The sites of Zyomon potteries form.
    b. The sites of Yayoi potteries form.
    2. The representation of the original figures.
    a. The coast area of the Bay of Hukue.
    b. The coast region of the Pacific Ocean.
    c. The coast area of the Bay of Tahara.
    The change of the coast line plays the part of deciding the situation of fishing settlements in the prehistorical age.
    From this, the following fact is concluded; the geographical environment has more influence upon them than any other elements.
