grown in the Cacaygan valley, a hroad
and fertile stretch of country toward
the northern portion of the island. The
Cacaygan river overflows its banks annually, much like the River Kile, and

Foorl Value of   Sugar*
A striking paper on the "Dietetic
Value of Sugar' appears in last week's
Issue of the British Medical Journal,
by Dr. Willoughby Gardner. Roughly
speaking, tho world's consumption of
sugar in the, last fifteen years has
doubled, while in Great Britain it has
trebled per head in forty years. Another interesting point is that the English and Americans stand easily at the
head of the list as the sugar-eating
nations. Dr. Willoughby Gardner establishes the fact that sugar is a potent creator of energy and maintainer
of stamina. This, he contends, is not
only proved by laboratory experiments, but by the case of the, date*
eating Arabs, the fine he^Hfe of the
sugar-cane-eating negri^ a»a the result obtained by AM»<> climbers, Arctic exp^o.*-^, aAlvtetea and German aol-
$$*-■§ |«S *>h a special diet. Dr. Willoughby Gardner's general conclusion
is that the increased height and weight
and the improved health of the English people in the last half century
are largely due to the increased consumption of sugar.

GREAT IS  SALT LAKE.
On* of the Most    Wonderful   Bodies    of
"Water In tho World.
Great Salt Lake, Utah, is in many
respects one of the most wonderful
bodies of water in the world. It is
six times as salty as the ocean, and
though four good-sized rivers are constantly pouring their waters into it,
it never loses any proportion of its
saltiness, an its level is never raised
an inch. No one has yet discovered
Why all this fresh water does not reduce the salt, or what becomes of the
fresh water, since it does not raise the
lake level. It was at one time about
as large as Lake Huron and perhaps
a thousand feet in depth; now it is
about one hundred miles in length,
with an average width of about 27
miles and it greatest depth is 60 feet
But what a storehouse of wealth it is!
Its area is 27,000 square miles or 75,-
271,680,000 square feet. Allowing it an
average depth of 20 feet, its contents
are 1,505,433,600,000 cuhic feet. Chemical analysis has shown that one-sixth
of this is common salt and sulphate of
soda, say 250,905,600,000 cubic feet. Of
this combined product, one-eighth is'
sulphate of soda and seven-eighths,
common salt A cubic foot of sulphate
of soda weighs 50 pounds, and a cubic
foot of common salt weighs 80 pounds;
a-simple calculation shows, therefore,
that the lake contains 784,080,000 tons
of sulphate of soda and 8,789,169,000
tons of salt. Allowing ten tons to a
carload, that makes 78,408,000 carloads of the soda and 878,016,960 carloads of salt. These figures are astonishing, to say the least, but the lake
has other features that challenge attention. For example, there are mountainous islands all over it, varying
in height from 3,000 to 5,000 feet. Antelope Island, the largest is about sixteen miles in length and five- miles in
width, with a height of 4,000 feet The
scenery on the island is exquisitely
beautiful. Luxuriant grasses flourish
everywhere and streams of pure water
run down the sides of its mountains
and its canyons. It has many improvements, too, including orchards,
gardens, ranches and groves of trees.
Its beach is of white sand, and slopes
in just the way to make it an ideal
bathing resort. Thus it is possible to
have a delightful sea bath one thousand miles from the ocean and 4,250
feet above the ocean level.
