Death Of Veteran Baptist Minister

The Rev. Almon Shepard, who died Oct.
20 at his home in Tunbridge, was 50 years
old. lie had preached most OF the time for
over sixty years as a Free Will Baptist.
Mr.. Shepard recalled when there we're
only three houses in Barre between the
covered bridge and the large elm tree on
Main street, and Montpelier was a hamlet
when he preached there many, many years
ago at the East village.
Mr., Shepard was in charge OF a church
at COrinth until four years ago when he
resigned. The church refused to accept
his resignation, and the pulpit during the
remainder of MIR. Shepard's life was sup
pied by various ministers, the aged pastor
being allowed to preach when he saw fit.
At three times in his life Mr.. Shepard
preached from seven to ten times a week
for three months. He lived for thirteen
years at Whitefeld, n. H., where he was
elected to the New Hampshire legislature.
This was 90 years ago and % years later
he represented Brookfield in the legisla-
ture in this state. Brookfield was his
native town, he having been born there
December 6, 1911. His father was born in
llb. lie came of family of twelve BOYS
ana four girls, he being the last one living.
Mr.. Shepard was an artisan in way and
had made his own carriages and har nesses.
some OF the trimmings on harness he
had used recently he had had seventy
years.
Mr.. Shepard preached a sermon at
BROOKE, SO years ago in which he said
the time would come when cars would
rattle among the old hills of Vermont, a
man could make chain of appointments
as quick as he could write them, and
could get on the cars and meet them.
some of his congregation became alarmed
and thought he was crazy. The first loco
motive built was made by Amos Blake,
his cousin, and exhibited IN the basement
OF the old state house II years ago. Mr..
Shepard had been town moderator oftener
than any living minister and for years was

Is an excellent opportunity for our mar
ket gardeners. The Cubans have neither
experience nor inclfnat ton for the intense
and careful cultivation involved In this
class of agriculture.
Pineapples are the basis OF a large
trade with the United States. This has
recently increased since shipments began
to be made direct to Chicago. instead of
entirely to New York. with the frequent
result Of quitting the market. Even now
great deal of the fruit which IS raised
can neither be shipped nor consumed To-
cally, and this surplus would undoubtedly
afford a profitable business to large cam
ming factory In the neighborhood of Ha-

OF plneapples from Cuba and about the
same quantity last year. There has been
decided Increase In the shipments of all
kinds Of Cuban fruits Of late. In 1904
their value exclusive of pineapples)
amounted. to 50. 1OO. 900. The fruits and
vegetables raised for export include lines,
lemons, oranges, tomatoes. sweet pcta-

Curious Things and
Animals.

As rule fish come ont OF the winter
only at the end OF a line or by other in
voluntary process. but the climbing perch
of the East Indies thinks nothing of leav-
ing a pool with which It is not satisfied
and starting overland IN search OF one
more to its taste.
This usually happens as a result Of the
evaporation Of a pool In the extremely
dry season. When the fish decide that
the water In the particular pool formed
during the rainy season is In danger Of
drying out completely they make all prep
arations for moving and late at night or
early In the morning deliberately climb
the banks and start or Ia search OF some
more commodious pool or stream not In

Is the Russian revolution actually be-

for four years have been rising, only to be

of the terrible eruption that Is bound to

Socialism, Here and
Abroad.

1t is singular but true that socialism has
made less progress IN these free United
States than In many monarchies. Ger
many contains more regularly organized
socialists than any other country, and is
regarded by students the home of social
ism and the foster-nother Of the socialists
In every other ma fion.
In France, Italy and England they are ac-
tuaily represented In the governments In
Germany the socialists control an impor-
tant section of the imperial congress, but
In Germany SO far the Emperor has been
able TO keep them out OF the actual gov
eminent. AS matter Of fact, Germany
is next TO Russia IN the autocracy OF Its
government, and is now on even a more
secure basis practically an absolute
monarchy than any other European gov
eminent
Yet IT is true that the socialistic vote
is Increasing very rapidly IN this country
In 1900 their presidential vote was only
125,1 III, while In 1904 On four short years
only this vote had Jumped all the way to
AS, 7s1. an Increase never before achieved
by new party within so short a space
of time, except the Republican party In
the four years which preceded the Civil
War and the election of Lincoln to the
presidency. Politicians OF all kinds admit
that the first break IN the wonderful pros
perity OF this country VIII mean a big
break In political alignment as now con-
stituted.
Just what share the socialists would get
OF the Efficient party votes would BE hard
to say, but that they would Immediately
come Into a position OF great Importance,
both political and economic students claim
to be beyond question.

England and France, where 1t Is manu-
featured into chocolate and cocoa.
The two principal staples of Cuba. which
have been renowned for their excellence
since the inception Of their cultiya ton,
are sugar and tobacco.
Cuban sugar is produced entirely from
cane. which was introduced soon after
the occupation Of the island by the Span
iards, and proved exceedingly congenial
TO the existing conditions. Although
prosecuted in desultory fashion for CEN
turtles, 1t was not until about the middle
of the nineteenth century that the in
dustry began to assume commercial I'M
portance. Since 1890 the output has in
creased from 100000 tons to 1000. 900
tons annually. Sugar cane Is raised ex-
tensively IN all the provinces save Pinar
del Rio. and some there on land Ill adapt
ed to the growth of tobacco. The plant
requires little attention and needs renew
ing only once IN 10 years or more. Thus
the agricultural process Is cheap and
easy, but heavy expenses are entailed In
the preparation OF the crop for market,
requiring as it does the employment of
expensive machinery, the use OF large
buildings for grinding and extensive rail-
road plants for transportation.
Cuba can produce cane sugar more

nineteenth century there were many more
than 1000 "cafetales," or coffee planta-
lions, in the island, and In the year 1916
the yield of the berry exceeded 10000, 900
pounds. But from that period the In
dustry began to decline, owing to the
competition of South America and the
East Indies, neglect Of proper cultivation
and abandonment in favor of the tenn
porarily more profitable sugar culture. As
a result of this combina ton of adverse
factors the number of plantations had
fallen to fewer than 200 In 1894. and at
present they reduced to an even small
er number, scattered about the upands
of the eastern provinces In it's palmy
days the Cuban coffee enjoyed a very
high reputation In Europe and America
The Cubans are large consumers of the
berry and should not import grain.
There are signs OF n revival of the coffee
industry. In the Nipe Bay region par
ticulary the Dumois and other planters
have laid out considerable areas in plants
that are just about yielding, SO that the
present season should afford some criteria
of the prospects for establishing the
trade on a paying basis.
Although extensive tracts Of land in va
rfous parts of the island are admirably
adapted to truck farming and available
for that purpose, the industry has been
unwarrantably neglected. This was due
to the thinly populated condition of the
country, to the lack of good roads and to
the tendency, IN violation of the true
principles of agricultural economy, OF de-
voting undue attention to only two staples
at the expense of all other products
Until quite recently truck fmming was
restricted to limited areas IND The imme-
date vicinity of cities where the demand
for vegetables was too obvious to be over
looked and too urgent to be denied. Un-
der the stimulus of American ideas and
capital Cuba is now beginning to awake
to the wastefulness OF importing what
she can produce at less cost, and to the
splendid opportunity for supplying the
markets of the United States with fresh
garden produce during the winter months.

The stories occasionally brought ashore
by seamen OF floating islands are usually
set down as myths, yet the report from
the steamer Arahopoe of meeting float
ing island IN the Guf Stream OF the
coast OF North Carolina cannot be dis
missed so easily. As matter OF fact
this vessel no. only saw a floating island
covering over two acres OF ground, but
the second lieutenant and a boat crew of
sailors actually went on the island and
spent several hours on this piece OF foat-i
ing land
