BOGOTA, July 25 (Reuters) - Colombia's industrial production rose 11.91 percent in May from a year earlier, while the output for the January-through-May period increased 14.13 percent, the National Statistics Department said on Wednesday.

April industrial production was up 13.25 percent from the same month last year.

Retail sales in Colombia rose 10.24 percent in May from 12 months ago and grew 13.13 percent in the first five months of the year versus the year-ago period, the government said in a separate statement.

The economy of the Andean country has gained strength under President Alvaro Uribe, who has reduced crime and attracted foreign investment with his U.S.-backed crackdown on Marxist rebels.

"It had become usual to give Napoleon the credit for every successful achievement and every stroke of good fortune. You would often hear one hen remark to another, 'Under the guidance of our Leader, Comrade Napoleon, I have laid five eggs in six days'; or two cows, enjoying a drink at the pool, would exclaim, 'Thanks to the leadership of Comrade Napoleon, how excellent this water tastes!'"
