, land. whereas II should come from the
United States for the United states
takes a great part of Jayn's sugar pro-
duet We took last year $4,000, 900
worth of sugar from this port Of Seer
baia alone, and our total imports Of
sugar last year from Java amounted TO
s27, OOO. 600
Java is now producing about bill
lion and half pounds of sugar every
year, and It's plantations are among
the richest OF the world. The cultiya-
tion is along scientific lines. The fields
are trenched to great depth and are
otherwise cultivated more carefully
perhaps than in any other part OF the
world, with the single exception OF the
Hawaiian Islands They are planted
by cutting the cane into short lengths
and sticking 1t upright In the ground.
In some places the seed plants are
raised on the highlands and the cut
tings carried TO the lowlands for plant
ing, This is on account OF disease
which has recently affected the cane OF
the lowlands.
IN THE CANE FIELDS,
Sugar grows luxuriantly here. The
cane fields are very thicket through
which II Is almost impossible to go. The
cane Is full OF juice and contains q
large percentage of sugar For time
great part OF the product was raised
on the government plantations, but
about ten years ago such cultivation
was stopped. Now all sugar Is raised
on lands leased from the government
and on private estates The govern
ment estates have steadily decreased.
and In 1898 there were less than 200 Of
them.
Many Of the large sugar factories
were developed through the culture sys-
TEN. The government advanced money
TO colonists TO build sugar mills, agree
ing that the natives of the districts
where the mills were built should be
forced to grow enough sugar cane to
keep the mills going One-fifth Of the
land was planted In sugar cane, and
every native had to give one days la
Dor q week to tend the crop. The mill
owner agreed to sell one-third OF his
product 10 the government at a low
fixed rate, thus paying back the money
advanced 10 him. Holland made an
enormous profit out OF this business, re-
ceiving for years a revenue Of more
than s5,OO0000 annually from its sugar
sales. II insisted that all plans for fac
tories should be submitted to the gov
eminent engineers for approval, and
the result Is that sugar making Is car
ried on as scientifically here as at any
place In the world. The low wages and
the machinery reduce the cost OF the

JAyA's NEW OIL FIELDS.
passed through Java's new oil fields
on my way eastward. They are situated
not far from the north coast. One lies
near Soerbaia and the other not far
from Batavia, the two being several
hundred miles apart. None Of the oil
so far gotten Is equal to that from the
United States, and 1t Is now selling TOR
about 20 cents less per case. The
Standard OIL company has the bulk OF
the trade here. II has Its agencies at
Batavia, Samrang. and Soerbaia, and 1t
brings In oil by the ship load. The oil
is bought by the Chinese middlemen,
who sell 1t to the native merchants, who
peddle II out in small quantities. In the
market the average measure Ia tin
cup about the size OF claret glass,
and the usual purchase would not more
than fill an egg-shell. The oil Is sold
on very close margin. costing about
Is cents a gallon. The Chinese use oil
largely IN their trade with the natives,
exchanging Ii for rice and other al'ti-
cles.
HOW TIE DUTCH EDUCATE THE
JAVANESE.
During my stay in Java have looked
into the methods which the Dutch are
employing to educate the natives, They
have quite as big job as We have Ia
the Philippines, and so far they are
hardly at the beginning. For years
they did not educate at all but they
are now establishing native schools,
and In time hope to make Some change
in the 25,OOO.OOO people under their gov
eminent. | Travelled from Batavia to
