		The date is a rough guess based on the publishers name and the configuration on the back which narrows it down to between 1910 and 1925.
		Although I am unsure of the date, because the card is unused and there is no date anywhere else to be found, I have seen others from this same series and printer and they all have postmarks from 1927 onward.

		BESIDES the Marikina River, the Laguna de Bay—the country’s biggest lake—has long been invaded by the destructive janitor fish but the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) has been sitting down on the complaint of fisherfolk.
		Ranilo Cenina, a fisherman from Barangay Tayuman, Binangonan, Rizal, said that the number of janitor fish in the Laguna Lake is continuing to rise and dominates commercially important fish species like tilapia, ayungin and bangus because they are capable to lay many eggs.
		The project in the Marikina River that is connected to the Laguna de Bay, however, faces budget constraints.
