the way I felt is TO say l was just
leg-weary and all in. l really did not
have strength to keep going and I
gave up all idea of trying to work.
For a long time I had no appetite
but would eat anyhow though my food
never seemed to do me any good.

had been taking it about week when
one evening, after supper, l started to
walk and before l realized it 1 had
walked up to First Street and back,
about 4 blocks and never felt it at
all and then / realized that the tonic
was helping me.
I have taken four bottles now and

as much energy as l ever had. 1 get

BIG SUGAR SUPPLY.
Philippine Islands Have Quar-
ter Million Tens for Expart.
Modern Methods Expected to
Increase the Output.

Manila, P. T.. April 26.-The7 sugar
crop of 1a1s-1a2o in the Philippine
Islands now being harvested, aggre-
gates 225,00o tons for export, and be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 tons for
home consumption. according to fig
ures compiled by chambers of com
merce, and manufacturers and ex-
porters.
Centrifugal sugar. 9e per cent pure.
forms only a small percentage of the
production of the islands. the bulk of
the sugar produced being muscavados,
in which a large percentage of mo-
lasses remains after being produced
by the open boiler process.
Out of the 225,0oe tons estimated
available for export this year. $4,000
tons are centrifugais and 10000 mus
cavados. Practically none of the lat
ter variety is exported to the United
States, China, and Japan taking the
most of it.
Export Supply Grows.
Growers and manufacturers, how
ever predict that within short time
the ratio of centrifugals to muscavados
will be reversed. by reason of the
modern methods of manufacture be-
ing introduced.
The labor problem is becoming seri-
Gus, according to producers and man
ufacturers. Many of the natives have
left the island. Some have gone to
the Alaska fish canneries, others have
taken up a seafaring life. while a num-
Der have migrated to the Hawaiian
sugar fields.
Efforts are being made to induce
the government to tender assistance
along the line of more intensive Gull
tivation of the soil. According to sta
tistics. the average yield per acre has
been stationary for many years, a lit
tie mere than three-quarters of a ton,
while in some cane producing coun-
tries five tons an acre are obtained.
Jap System Best.
In the island of Formosa under Jap
anese methods of intensive cultivation.
a yield of one and a half tons an acre
is obtained, and growers claim that
the soil and climatic onditions there
are inferior TO those in the Philippines
While figures on local consumption
of sugar are not given as exact, various
authorities place the quantity at be-
tween Is and 20 pounds per capita a
year. as against a consumption OF
agout 80 pounds per capita in the
| United States.
