This article appears in Volume V03, Page 380 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BAI-BAR
BARBACENA , an inland
town
  of Brazil, in the state of
Minas
  Geraes, 150 M. N.N.W. of Rio de Janeiro and about 3500 ft. above sea-level. The surrounding
district
  is chiefly agricultural, producing
coffee
 ,
sugar
 -cane, Indian corn and
cattle
 , and the
town
  has considerable commercial importance. It is also noted for its' healthiness and possesses a large
sanatorium
  much frequented by convalescents from Rio de Janeiro during the hot season. Barbacena was formerly a
principal
  distributing centre for the
mining
  districts of
Minas
  Geraes, but this distinction was lost when the
railways
  were extended beyond that point.
