The public works Uncle Sam ham been carrying on during the past nine pours have brought a great deist of money into the Mend. During that time the ports have exceeded the export1 tV more than a half million dollars ant the greater part of this money has come from the wages paid to the no,. lives for tho labor on the public workx. As a result the people have had more cash than ever before, and the price of living has Thom one or two thou-ran- d per cent. The wants of the pito. pie have also increased. Formerly 'they lived for the most part on the taro yams and bananas which they ralsod themselvee. They have now become accustomed to the tinned meats and vegetables brought In from Japan and America. All this has been paid for with labor. Rut now the most of the public work The island is well has been done. equipped with roads. Its harbors have been improved and the public buildings The big jobs must have been erected. soon stop, and the people must then go bilek to the WA Where they cam.. not make anything like what they have done while laboring for Uncle gam. How this may be brought about without trouble remains to be seen. Tho government will have to encour. age agriculture and arrange for the xOne of the possibilities will be ports. In cocoanut raising.

The experts say it might annution. ally yiEld 200.000 tons of copra. which, could be sold at a profit of Sie a ton. That alone would bring in $2,000,000 per annum. The higher lands of the Island are pultable for coffee and the lower per- -, tions will grow sugar. There are also' too square miles of forest. the timber of which at present prices to worth. about $2,000,000 Another possible crop is vanilla., an... other cacao and a third rubber. for it Is said that the India rubber tree can be grown there. The rice fields may be also increased. They are rudely farmed. and with Japanese methods of culture might produce ten times as much as they now do. All of these various crops will be experimented with and the island will eventually b? a great And dition In the which leek nP:;IPI 6 indd bet nteeth. st the water up to her waist and pound the clothes she is washing against a wooden tray which floats on the surface of the river These women Can walk great dietances.
