French Peasant Women Hard Workers. The French peasant woman, Ere tonne or otherwise, works hard as any man. It makes one sad to see the women working in the fields, digging and deiying, carrying heavy burdens, driving the cattle, sometimes attend ing to the machinery employed on the farms.

his talk quite after the manner of the
old Elizabethan sea captains.
His chief task at present is licking
the "Hispania" and her crew into
shape for the Cowes regatta, at which
her royal owner has entered her for
several races, and he will be assisted
in his task by several Tollesbury men,
who have gone with him as part of the
crew. The course is well known to
him, for as recently as last year he
steered Sir James Pender's Brynhild
to victory there, and besides he has
won some four hundred prizes in the
last four years in yacht racing. So, if
the Hispania behaves herself, and the
little cherub that sits up aloft" does
likewise, his Spanish majesty stands
good chance to carry off some prizes
during the coming yachting season.
Tollesbury is home of sea dogs
Capt. Barbrook's father is one of the
oldest of them, and now surely the
proudest. His son has loved the sea
since his boyhood; took to it like the
smallest duckling to the neighboring
pond, and has lived on it and near it
ever since. He is well known among
yachting men and such authorities as
Sir Thomas Upton. Sir James Pendel
and Mr.. Fife were amongst those who
sang his praises to King Alfonso.

was elected governor of Maine. He

PLENTY OF PAPER MATERIALS
Abundant for That Industry In the
Philippines, But Not UTILIZED
at the Present Time.

Manila paper" Is a phrase with
which we have always been familiar.
vet there is no paper made in Manila
or anywhere else in the Philippines.
The so-called manila paper has long
been made from worn-out ropes OF ma
nila hemp, but the paper mills that
turned out the product were in Eu-
rope or America. "Cogon' grass,
hemp. bamboo, banana and many palm
trees have been used to make paper
Good newspaper and book material
can be made from the cogon grass,
which grows wild in marketable guam
titles, in many parts OF Luzon. Phil
ippipe bamboos make strong paper
that bleaches we'll. the fibers Of that
plant being long and thick. The waste
from hemp strippings makes paper
fine for insulating purposes. Hemp
waste commands high price In the
United States. According to the last
census approximately 100000 tons of
1t. including waste thread, twine, rope.
etc. was purchased by American man

various uses to which paper may be
nut until he has considered the in
genuity Of the people OF Japan. The
Japanese use paper for all kinds o:
articles in domestic use for clothing
and for house-building- The Filipino

would undoubtedly find paper the So

1t is known through all parts of the
world that the soil of the Philippines
is very rich and fertile. Yet unmeas-
ured lands are lying Idle in the con-
slant bright sunshine and never titled.
and only shrubs and useless grasses
grow on them.
This is due to many reasons, one Of
which is the lack of good roads. When
there are good roads through all parts
of our country, the farmer will be
very glad to begin to wake up his
sleeping land, because in the first
place he can transport his products
to the market easily, writes Filipino
student, in Farm, Stock and Homo.
From this fact he can obtain always
much profit When the roads are bad
the farmer and the animal can hardly
carry instruments to work with. and
they get tired easily. but where good
roads are built this is not true, for
then he and his beast can work very
fast.
During the rainy season the pigs on
the farms should not be permitted to
dig the roads in order to get food,
already know, when the road from
the farm to the town is good, the
farmer can haul his products to the
market easily,-in the rainy season
has well as in the dry season.
Merchants are also very dilligent to
go to his farm to buy his vegetables
Thus he can obtain always much gain
When the good roads have coaxed the
farmer to produce more than he did
previously, then there will certainly
be many merchants to carry on CON-
merce, and steamers to carry said
products to every part of the globe
and therefore the country to which
these farmers belong will be in pros
perity and progress.
1t is the usual talk of the common
farmer that one reason why he does
not like to raise many vegetables Is
that other people steal them at night
and this makes him lazy to work
Sometimes they steal also his instru-
ments and his animals, but il there
are good roads, those who keep order
can travel fast to stop flight, to catch
bandits and to do away with all kinds
of public annoyances. and the rob-
bers are afraid to steal any more lest
they are seen and captured.
In general the typical land in the
Philippines that is already under cul-
tivation is as well developed as a
cultivated land ought to be. We may
say that it Is yet in the beginning OF
real cultivation. 1t is the usual prac-

follow the so-called "one-crop" sys.
tenn Of farming. When rice is the
principal product. other crops are not
raised; when hemp. other crops are
neglected. This is a very miserable
method of farming because when rice
or hemp fail to grow the people suf.
fer very much from hunger, directly
or indirectly.
Diversified farming" is Just the
method that the Filipino must put at
once into practice. On account of this
fact he determines to raise more
crops than he has ever raised before.
in order to get more profit With
his gains he can buy better instru.
ments and carabos for his farm Now
he can raise as many crops as he de-
sires.
First Of all he plants rice, after rice
is harvested he can plant one-half his
land with mangoes and the other half
with corn. After that he can raise
many kinds of vegetables and so on
keeping on planting and planting.
This process of diversified farming IS
very advantageous to the farmer as
well as to the land itself. To the
farmer, he can get always much profit,
his chief aim. To the land, its soil
becomes better and richer, consequent
ly more productive. For this reason
the farmer is now very dilgent to
raise many crops.
No person can obtain much wealth
from his land unless he guards it, and
takes care of his crops Therefore
the farmer wants to live permanently
on his farm
Practice declares that the success
of the plants to grow, depends main.
ly on water. So irrigation is needed
always in every time Irrigation is
needed to soften the land The farmer
has often heavy thought how he can
bring water from the river to his
crops.
Many young men now are about to
finish courses in agriculture. These
young men are the realization of the
F4lipinos' hopes. These are the farm
ers of modern times. They will in
not many years more set the examples
Importance of the PHILIPPINES and her
rank among the nations in the future
depends upon the strength of the
