RICE PADDLES OF LUzoN
lfugaos, Primitive People, Have
Built Extension Terraces That
Are Well Irrigated.

Today tribe in the Philippines, nc
some of whom have been seen in this
country, can show the adventurous
traveller in the interior of Luzon some
schemes in terrace construction and
feats in irrigation that compare cred
itably with the best exhibits the Unit
ed States reclamation service is ca
pahle of making. Considering the to-
tai ignorance of modern machinery
the total ignorance of modern meth
ods, prevailing among the Ifugaos
there is, of course, no comparison be
tween the ingenuity and the workman
ship of these denizens of the noun
tains and trained Caucasians. The
terraces lie along the side of steeL
canyon between the native settle
m ents of Quiangan and Banaue ir
Nueva Viscaye province. They rist
like giant steps up the steep ascents
to the height of 1900 feet or more
extending probably into a secondary
range of hills, making the extension
almost 5000 feet. Each paddy, or ter
race plain. or plateau, varies from
eight to forty feet in width and Is ap
rroximate1y 800 feet long, following
the contour of the canyon. These
shelves are flooded with water in the
spring before the rice planting. The
retaining wall of each terrace is built
to about fifteen inches above the WI
ter level At the point where the pad
dy meets the canyon side the retain
ing wall of the terrace next above
begins, so that the canon, no matter
how steep, presents an unbroken sue
Cession Of terraces, which at one
period of the year bears striking
resemblance to tiers of reservoirs, al
another season to tiers of hanging
gardens. The irrigation of these
shelves, with works extending in one
instance for distance of twelve
miles, is brought about by the dehec
ton Of mountain streams. The Ifu
gaos have been doing in this respect
for countless centuries what the eau
casian in the American west began
TO do only few decades back.
