LIPA , a town of the province of
Batangas
 , Luzon, Philippine Islands, about 90 M. S. by E. of Manila. Pop. (1903) 37,934. Lipa is on high ground at the intersection of old military roads, is noted for its cool and healthy climate, and is one of the largest and wealthiest inland towns of the archipelago. Many of its houses have two storeys above the ground-
floor
 , and its
church
  and convent together form a very large building. The surrounding country is very fertile, producing
sugar

century
  and was increased gradually until 18891890 when an
insect
  pest destroyed the trees. The language of Lipa is Tagalog.
