This article appears in Volume V24, Page 154 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAC-SAR
SAN MIGUEL DE MAYUMO , a town of the province of Bulacan, Luzon, Philippine Islands, about 40 M. N. of Manila. Pop. (1903) 14,919. In 1903, after the
census
 ' had been taken, San Ildefonso (pop. 5326) was annexed to San Miguel. It has a cool and very healthy climate, and commands a beautiful view of the surrounding country. The soil is very fertile, and many of the inhabitants have acquired much wealth from the cultivation of
rice
 .
Sugar
 -cane, Indian corn and
cotton
  are also produced in abundance, and cattle are raised. Near the town are iron mines and quarries of limestone, and on the neighbouring mountains are forests containing valuable hardwood timber. About 8 m. N.E. are the medicinal springs of Sibul, to which large numbers of patients from the neighbouring provinces come. The San Miguel river, which flows near, affords a means of transportation, and the town has considerable commerce. Some beautiful furniture is made out of the hardwood from the mountains, and
cotton
  fabrics are
woven
  in considerable quantities by the women. The
principal
  language is Tagalog. The
chief
  buildings were destroyed in 1901 in a fire started by a band of thieves.
