Club Work Thrives in Philippines

Boys and girls in the Philip pine Islands are learning the best ways of producing corn and hogs and other farm products In the same kind of clubs that young people in this country have. Although the club work has been in operation only three years in the Philippines, it is now important in every school, and is considered by the super intendent of agricultural eXten- sion of the islands as the most productive of all the lines of az ricultural activities for which the pupils receive school credit. Last year there were 1,165 agri- cultural clubs in the islands, with a total enrolment of IS. 160 boys and girls. These club members cultivated 270 acres of land planted to vegetables and corn. They owned 58, 700 chick ems, 2.750 hogs, and cared for 27,592 fruit trees.

Sugar Crop Above Average

In the sugar campaigns" re- gently ended in the United States has produced an amount of sugar that is estimated by the United States Department of Agriculture's Bureau of crop Estimates to be over 2, 40, 0,000,- GOO pounds, and this quantity is 25.OOO,OO0 pounds above the average of the last six years, be- ginning with the year before the war began. Having two princi pal sources of domestic sugar production beet and cane, the va riations of one crop often lit into those of the other so as to give some degree of steadiness to the total of the two. To some extent this happened last year, since the cane-Sugar crop was 569,- 100000 pounds. or 60,000,000 pounds above the six year aver age, and the beet-sugar crop 1,53O, ,OoO pounds, or 30.000,o00 under the average. while the production of maple sugar, in cluding the sugar equivalent of sirup. was 1.507, ,000 pounds, or 5000, ,OOO pounds below the ay. craze.
 All together. the domestic su- gar crop is usually about one quarter of the domestic consump. tion. the receipts from Ameri- can possessions about one guar ter, and the imports from for eign countries about one half Beet sugar production in the United States has gained rapid ly on cane sugar during the last 2O years, and permanently eX- ceeded it in 1906 or, so that it has been about two and three quarters times the sugar cane crop during the last six years.
 To the sugar production may be added that of sirup and hon ey. It is estimated that the su- gar equivalent of the cane sirup of last year is l74 100000 pounds and of the sorghum sirup 146,- 000.00 pounds, while honey amounted to 54,S15,00C pounds Carrying forward the census for 1909), not computed into equivalent sugar. Without in cluding corn sirup, for which no estimate is made. the grand to- tai production of beet sugar, cane sugar and sirup, maple sugar and sirup, and sorghum sirup, all in terms of sugar, and of honey was 2.515, 100000 pounds-a total somewhat above the average of recent years.

THE NEW BROTHERHOOD

We are sitting out the selfishness that
marred our olden creeds.
From the vineyards where we laboi
we are thinning out the weeds.
We are building for the future to
nobler. better plan.
For the world has caught the VISION
of the brotherhood of man.
We have put the past behind us. AS
the sturdy pioneers
Saw within the tangled forest all the
glory of the years,
So We face our trials calmly, LOT ne
yond them we can see
The greater goals of freedom and the
world that is to be.
These are days of self-denial, these
are times for sacrifice.
1t is freedom we are gaining and eacr
one must pay the price.
We are drawing close together WIN
common end in view;
For the greater joys we dream ol
we've a common task to do.
We are sitting out the selfishness that
marred US in the past,
For the light of truth is shining
through the clouds of doubt at
last:
We are building for the future to a
larger, better~plan.
For all eyes have caught the vision
of the brotherhood of man.
