Poet and doctor
Farming and Fishing - He cleared the land to sow rice and corn, and invited his brother-in-law, Manuel Hidalgo, to engage in the sale of abaca, which they could grow in Dapitan and ship to Manila to be sold at a higher price.
Farming and Fishing - Rizal would later set up the Association of Dapitan Farmers — the first commercial association in the town—and drew up its constitution and by-laws.
Farming and Fishing - When he found out that the locals did not know how to fish with nets despite their proximity to the sea, Rizal asked Hidalgo to send over large fishing nets and taught them how to fish himself
Farming and Fishing - Rizal letter to Ferdinand Blumentritt:“I have many fruit trees, mangoes, lanzones, guayabanos,baluno, nangka. I have rabbits, dogs, cats. I rise early—at five —visit my plants, feed the chickens, awaken my people, and put them in movement. At half-past seven we breakfast with tea, pastries, cheese, sweet meats. Later It reat my poor patients who come to my land; I dress, I goto the town in my [canoe], treat the people there, and return at 12 when my luncheon awaits me.”
School for boys - Rizal took in six local boys, whom he described as poor and intelligent, and built a school for them. Josephine Bracken watched over the students and made sure they did their homework when Rizal was away.
School for boys - The school had a curriculum modeled after the German gymnasium; the students were taught arithmetic, geometry, Spanish, English, French, German, fencing, wrestling, and boxing.
School for boys - Over time, more students were admitted to the school through an unusual and inventive test: after nightfall, Rizal would ask the applicant to go into the forest and retrieve a cane he left behind. Some of Rizal’s students who were in on the plan would make terrifying noises in the woods to scare away theun suspecting neophyte. If he successfully returned with the cane despite the provocations, he was welcomed to the school.
Poet and Doctor - He continued to practice his profession, curing sick locals and offering medicine gratis to those who could not pay. With the help of Fr. Francis code Paula Sanchez, another Jesuit, he made a relief map of Mindanao in the town plaza of Dapitan.
Poet and Doctor - He published an article on kulam, dug up prehistoric artifacts in an old burial ground, wrote a new orthography of the Tagalog language, and planned to work on a dictionary of Philippine languages, with translations in English, French, and Spanish.
