is Luzon, the largest and most import
ant Of the Philippine group. The in
terror is quite level. with mountain
ranges along the coasts. You can
scarcely see anything but cane and rice
fields. The cane is principally all cut
and the natives are getting their rice
fields ready for the rainy season. Sugar
mills are quite numerous. a native
receives ten cents per day for work and
then takes half Of that out in sugar.
The houses are principally built of bam-
boo with mahogany floors. Every town
has large stone church and convent
with large plaza in front. A bamboo
tree grows very tall and slender, prob
ably four to six inches through. The
Joints are about one foot apart.

about finished taking the census Of this
borough. and II any one has been missed,
or any one knows of II person whose
name has been omitted. they should re-
port the same 10 the enumeraior in the
district where the missed one resides.
1t is not matter Of moment to the
enumerator, but every citizen is, or
should be, interested in having our full
quota reported and the census as near
correct as possible.
1t is not likely the census cnumera-
tors will be paid for their work before
September next, after the books have
been gone over by the experts and the
enumerations verified.
Census enumerators cannot give out
information concerning their work, not
even state the population Of territory
assigned them when the work is com
plete, under penalty of $500.
Much interest and many inquiries
have been made as tO the time and
manner In which the census returns
will be made public. II is supposed
that by July l, Superintendent Merriam
Of the census will likely have his first
announcement to make. Commencing
with the larger cities and coming down
in as neary regular order daily bulletins
will be issued Of the populations.
