15. No- vemDcr 5 tbree of us started on our vacation trip. -We first went by train to Dagupao, tbe northern "terminus of the railroad. From here we left at 9 m. In a bull cart, which is the customary conveyance in this regloo.

Tbe cart bas a bamboo cover and except that it is two-wheeled looks some what like a prairie schooner on a small scale. It is drawn by a China bull. which has a large hump and a low neck. We Went to Blnanloan, 21 miles, the first day, where we stayel over night with an American school teach er. The road here is through the country of the Paogaslnaoes.

About the only labor in progress "along tbe way was threshing rice. It is first placed in a large trough hewn from a log and pounded wltb a large, heavy wooden pestle 'resembling two large Indian-clubs Joined 1 at tbe handles. This work Is done mostly by women. The rice is then placed in a large flit wooden vessel and winnowed by being tossed into, tbe air and catching it, tbe wind, if there be a breeze, blowing away the chaff. If there be no breeze the rice is thrown upward and side- wise in such a manner as to separate tbe grain from tbe chaff, and caught without any of it falling to tbe ground The rice is then placed in a larte wooden mortar and again pounded to free it entirely from j-ue bulls.

The next day we went to Tayug, where we spent tbe night with a former Boldier in tbe Spanish army, who was captured by tbe Filipinos "during tbe Insurrection. On therjad here we passed through mud and water to the axles of the cart. Io p'ac the roads were being worked by. bitching a car- abao to a few brush and dragging them over the road. In other places grass was thrown in the road to cover mud boles.

At we dismissed, pur cart ana nirea rrom tne bpanlard wltb whom we stayed a pack pony. In the morning we went to Sao Nicolas' where we purchased rice and bananas. We bad brought canned goods from Manila. Now began our trip through the mountains. For 13 miles there was no water along the trail though during tbe most of this time we could hear a stream foar in? in the valley on each side of us down where it: could not "be The first day we reached Nozo, which consists of two rude shelters along tbe bank of a river.

In one of these we slept on the floor. The next morning 'the trail ascended for four hours, reaching an elevation of 5,000 feet, passing through tbe pine forest. Here are many tree ferns reaching a I height of 30 feet and a diameter of six inches. At noon we reached Imogen, a small village situated lo a very small baslo surrounded by mountains. Tbe people bare are descendants of Igorots who formerly lived in tbe mountains to the north and who later settled in tbe neighboring valleys and plains.

The presidente of the village started fire for us pop- THE ulaUoo sat around and looked on while we cooked and ate our dinner. These people raie sweet potatoes in the small yalley and on the mountain slopes and they taise nothing else. The t-ext day we wn6 ti Saote Fcj. where we slept under. shelter of bamvoq and grass oi thV bank river; following day we went to Aritao.

When we arriyed we went to the telegrapU office and asked the -erat-irs. who vere from a Christian whether we could purchase banana and cocoanut in the town, and tbey laugbel quite heartily at the idea of our doing so. We thei asked if we c- uid buy rice. They said no, that tbe people there were yery poor that tbey soiuetirues had rice to eat. and sometimes not, tint they then went to tbe mountain slope and got sweet potatoes, on which; alone they then lived.

We cooked our supper in front of telegraph office and when we left tbe fire it wa9 surrounded by a band of about thirty, cargadores, who squatted around it and wben we awoke in the morning were still there. We slept on the floor of the telegraph Office.

Tbey also spin, weave, and dye clotb for tbe clothes; of which tbey. wear but tittle. Here one of our. party while diving Into Magat river, struck his head UDon a rocs at the bottom aod open his scalp, which was sewed up by; the school teacher with an ordinary sewing needle.and thread. From here we went to Bayambong, the capital of the province of Nueva Vizcaya, where we ate supper aod breakfast with tbe governor of the province and stayed over, night with some American school teachers.

At this place we purchased canoed goods from the constabulary commissary to last during the rest of our trip. On the road from Bambang a band of very large monkeys crossed the trail ahead of us. At Bayambong we got two cargadores in addition' to our pick horse. From here we went to Bdgabag, where we stayed with the presidente of tbe town. Here I Saw for the first time the sensitive plant, which quite abundant here, On being touched tbe leaves' curl up and it appears to have wilted away.

The next morning we went to a village where five cargadores aod two muni cipal policeman who had teen ar ranged for by the Governor awaited as. We here dismissed our pack horse. This day we met a municipal police man carrying a chicken which had its 'eathera picked from Its wings back and which was still alive. Tbe native let it drink at tbe river and ducked' it into tbe waWr several times and went on with it still alive. Along the trail here we saw a number of skeletons of ponies which: had beea -eaten by the I go rotes.

Throughout our trip we frequently met lgorotes leading a number of dogs from the plalus to tbe mountains for food. They were tied by a rope attached to a stick three or four feet long to prevent the dogs reaching tbem In case they bscome Our next night was spnt at Qulan- gan with a native lieutenant of con stabulary. At 5 p. m. we could see tbe village below us just across a narrow valley to the right and we thought we were nearly there- The trail then wound round and round tlll.it reached the bottom of the valley, then up and up In a tortuaus line rice paddies and climbing terraces, and it was 7:30 when we reached the: house Continued on Page Four) -JlKKH i J.
