Rice Growing Along the Colorado

Rice Growing Along the Colorado.
 "Land lying along the banks of the Colorado river, some fifty miles west of Yuma, is adapted to rice culture, and we understand that at no distant day the plant is to be given thorough trial A large colony of Fresnoites is already on the ground digging di.ches with the view of irrigating the land for summer crops"
 The above statement is made by the Rural Californian, and was suggested by an article On the rice industry pub lished in the Rice Age. That paper said:
 "The growing of rice in the United States has rapidly increased in inpor- tance during the last few years. Re cent articles which we have published in this connection have called forth some question as to reproduction of rice in Louisiana and Texas, those be- ing the principal rice-producing states. This is not a serious one. The truth is that the rice area of the United States is wholly inadequate to produce rice enough. Tho say that the narrow strip of land along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, extending for only few hundred miles, is capable of overstock- ing with a wholesome and nutritious cereal a market in which S0,000, ,090 people buy, is an absurd propO- sition; and to say that the producers may glut the market is sheer folly. As a rule the rice grower, unlike the old time cotton planter, is the master of his crop and may market it when and where the best price is procurable: he is not under bond to deliver it to fac~ tory as soon as grown, but may sell at his discretion and leisure; if he needs money his goods are an acceptable se- curity and he can pledge part of them to meet temporary needs; there is ab- solutcly no good reason fer rushing his product upon market Overburdened and then complaining of over-produc- tiCn if the price is not right.'

Ine united states coast ana SeOdetlc
survey has just issued new atlas of
the Philippine islands.
A The thirty maps inelud-
PHILIPPINE ed in the atlas are all OF
ATLAS. Spanish origin. but not
the work of the same
hands. Certain of them. ewing TO var
iations in the arbitrary scale and pro-
lection adopted, were also redrawn in
the office OF the coast and geodetic sur
vey.
It appears from Superintendent
Pritchett's Introductory note, that
when the Philippine commissioners ar
rived at Manila they learned that the
director of the Jesuit observatory, Rev.
Jose Algue, S. J., had in hand a series
of maps covering the more important
islands of the archipelago. An inspec-
ton of such of the maps as were COM
pleted convinced the commissioners that
they were superior to any hitherto pub
lished. Out Of this situation arrange
nents were made whereby the fifteen
original maps thus made became the
property Of the commission On August
Is, 1899; and these have been supple
mented with others Of earlier origin
1T is an interesting fact Surerinten-
dent Pritchett writes, that the techni-
cal work was executed wholly by native
Philippine craftsmen. OF course on the
original maps and under the immediate
supervision OF Rev. Father AIgue: and
the superintendent says further:
While strictly accurate maps can
never be prepared until the necessary
surveys have been made, it is believed
that this atlas fairly represents the
present state OF geographic knowledge
of the Philippine archipelago, and that
it embodies large amount of new in
formation
Just how many islands there are in
the group no one knows. So far as
plaps are concerned, one small scale
hap shows SIS islands; ana others, on a
larger scale. show It's. This number
very likely would be exceeded if every
patch of fast land were counted that
rises above the water; and il is also
probable, we should say, that the slow

/ The Christianization OF the Filipincs
and the volcanoes and earthquakes in
the islands, are three interesting points
disclosed by these maps In No. 9.
where the various races and tribes are
dealt with, the religious status is also
set forth. Three colors are used. one
representing the territorio de los clis-
tianos hispano-flipinos: the second the
territorio de los cristianos nuevos de
los infieies: and the third the Moham-
medan Moros. In Mindanao the new
Christians cover about twice as much
| territory as the Spanish Christians.
In Luzon the new Christians occupy
the upper half of the island. and the
Spanish Christians the lower half. In
AIindoro the Spanish Christians have
all the coast towns, and the other sort
the interior. The great middle group
OF islands-Samar. Layte. Panay. ETC.
belong almost exclusively to the Span
ish Christians. Roughly We should say
that this variety-what may be called
the established church there-had Ger
tainly two-thirds CT the more important
places. The infidels and the new Chris
tians being considered together, it is
impossible to determine their relative
strength.
There appear to be volcanoes enough
in the Philippines fer all practical pur-
poses. \ rough count makes out
twenty-three active and inactive ones
The probabilities are that they do no
harm in themselves-are mainly pic
turesque; curicsities for the traveller
rather than subjects of concern to the
Inhabitants But they are signs of an
unsettled state Of affairs underneath
the surface, and this subtarranean dis
turbance comes out in the earthquakes.
The earthquake map shows that both
Luzon and Mindanao have considerable
districts where earthquakes run from
frequent to very frequent. Indeed, the
the whole group CT islands has ten
dency in that direction, the best that
can be made out is that in spots this
tendency is very rare. The explana-
tory chapter OF the atlas states. in re-
gard to this point, that numerous and
destructive earthquakes have appeared
in the islands," the earliest recorded
being in 1916, and the most recent
rather unpleasant one in 1897.
