WORST TELLS ABOUT
THE ISLE OF PINES
Visited With Former n D. Newspaper Man. A. IF Weight
Gives Interesting Description Of the Island,
Its Crops and People.

Pres. ]. H. Worst of the agricultural
college, who Is a great traveller and
who studies infinitely the agricultural
conditions and the natural resources of
any country he visits has a great deaf
OF interest TO say about the Isle Of
Pines, which he visited recently, re-
turning to Fargo Saturday. In an in
terview with The Forum regarding this
island In the Caribbean sea he said:
The Isle of Pines is situated in the
Caribbean sea about sixty-five miles
south OF Cuba. 1t consists Of about
100000 acres of land, 100000 acres or
which are arabic.
1.-THE island is gently rolling in to-
Biography and is drained by arroyas oc-
curing at frequent intervals. The
highest points OF arabic land are quite
generally composed of coarse, red
gravel. shading down through yellow
or grayish sandy loan to rich black
soil adjacent to the drainage streams.
Grape fruit oranges, lemons, lines CO.
coanuts and bananas are grown sue
cessfully. the grape fruit approaching
perfection on this island. Such ma
tive fruits as mangoes. popoyas, qua
vas, avocadas and the like flourish and
are greatly relisbed by the natives and
in time become adapted to the Ameri-
can taste. Many varieties of vegeta-
bles such as water and musk melons,
pine apples, potatoes, peppers, toma-
toes and beans are successfully
grown during the winter or dry season.
The native grasses are not valuable for
grazing purposes, the cattle, mules
and goats will subsist on them.
The land, with the exception OF the
arroyas bottoms, is not noted for it's
fertility, Where vegetables or fruit
trees are propagated commercial fer
tilizeIs must be literally applied
though with good results.
The velvet and soy bean and COW pea
are being cultivated between the rows
Of fruit trees as a cover crop and for
the soil.
Owned Mostly by Americans.
The island is practically owned by
Americans. either by land companies
or small investors. The land compan-
les offer tracts of ten or more acres
to small investors at from $50 to $50
per acre. The land generally is in the
sta of nature and must be cleaned
of timber and underbrush by the pur-
chasers, before planting.
Quite a number of groves of from
ten to sixty or more acres have been
planted to citrus trees, but few Of
which however, are in full bearing.
But enough has been done to demon
strate the superior quality Of citrus
fruit is capable Of producing.
The winter season is said to be
ideal. The summers are not excessive
ly hot, the thermometer rarely recor-
ing 80 degrees. During the summer or
rainy season a gentle breeze is COM
mon and when in the shade the temper
ature is most agreeable, though the
sunshine is hot.
On the eve of our departure, Aug.
10, the temperature was only seventy
three while the hottest day experienced
during two weeks visit was only
SO degrees fahrenheit.

| about 1O1 miles of most excellent ava
cada (roads) we're built. These roads
are kept in excellent condition and for
quality can hardly be excelIed. And
though material for road making is
abundant and near at hand, yet UNI
der the Cuban government no further
word improvement has been attempt
ed.
There is practically no land tax. All
kinds of business enterprise however,
Is licensed, which, together with tariff
duties makes up the revenue enjoyed
by the government. No Improvement
can be undertaken without a conces-
sion from the government at Havana,
a thing difficult oftimes to obtain.
Even the leveling and fixing up of the
base ball ground in Santa Fe could
not be undertaken until a concession
and the money were forthcoming from
Havana.
Strictly speaking the island is very
largely in a state of nature and the
settlers are pioneers. Its future will
be what they make IT.. There is no
doubt but that the Isle OF Pines will
some day, and at no distant day, be a
reliable wealth producer. When it's
hills and valleys are dotted with citrus
groves and vegetable gardens instead
of native pines and palms the influx
of wealth will fully warrant the priva-
ton and toll incident to it's subjec-
ton. The tropics as well as the tenn
perate zones must be made to contrib
ute to the food supply of the world.
A Winter Residence,
For those desiring to spend their
winters in a warmer climate the Isle OF
Pines cannot be excelled as a winter
home. Many families are purchasing a
few acres with a view to their inn
provement as a winter residence an
ticipating sufficient revenue from their
citrus fruit groves to pay their trans
portation and living expenses. Others
are going there with a view of making
IL their permanent residence prefering
the milder seasons OF the tropics to the
colder seasons of the north.
AS in all ventures Of this character
there will be many disappointments.
Every country has its advantages and
disadvantages and in order TO secure
one seeming advantage some other 'ad-
vantage must be given up.
1 am convinced, taking all things
into consideration, that the Isle OF
Pines will some day become one OF the
beauty spots of the world and withall
productive and prosperous. But ac-
cording to an almost universal rule
the many little sacrifices made by the
venturesome poor will contribute to
the well being of the stayers who oper-
ate in a larger way.
Our visit was made especially pleas
ant by being entertained at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. +. Voigt former
ly of Leeds and Oberon, where Mr..
Voigt was engaged for some years in
the newspaper business.
The Voigts own a beautiful tract Of
about twenty acres on a gentle rise
just above the village Of Santa Fe,
about four acres Of which has been
planted to orange and grape fruit and
will be in bearing next season.

TO RID ENGLAND OF POVERTY.

Way to Prevent Poor Dying IL
worlxhouse, Prison or Gutter.
He who is born in a workhouse will
probably die in a workhouse, says Tit
Bits. Not certainly, for there are won
derful exceptions, but probably. The
same thing is true of many places,
whole districts, which are not work
houses in the technical sense OF the
term, but are, nevertheless, the houses
in which the work people live, in
which, because of their poverty, they
are compelled to live. He who is
born in one of these places will prob
ably die in the workhouse, or in the
prison, or in the gutter. Again, not
certainly, but probably7most prob
ably.
AS Sir John Gorst, minister for
education under a tory administra-
ton, said recently, you cannot blame
the babies for being born, or for not
making proper provision for their up
bringing. "At present many of them
had no chance, even before their
birth, for their mothers were driven
to work until almost the day when
they came into the world"
He has also said-perhaps he exag-
gerated; we shall see when we come
to look into the matter more closely,
but, anyhow. he said it-that the
great mass" of the children in our
public schools were in a state of de-
generacy and neglect. Now, if through
out the greater part of mans school
life he is in a state of degeneracy
and neglect, the odds are high that ne
will end his days in workhouse, a
prison or the gutter.
What we have to do, then, is to rout
out and finally to abolish those work
houses that breed paupers, and after
ward-let us hope not long afterward
to rout out and abolish those other
places that breed paupers. too.

An Inrenius Device.

When Sir Robert Perks school days
were over he entered the Office of a
nrm of lawyers and worked very hard.
1t was no uncommon thing to find him
reading law at In the morning, and
this often after he had been working
late on the previous night. AS a mat
ter of fact, he made it an infiexible
rule never to be in bed of a morning
after s. To enforce this rule he in.
vented an ingenious device. This con-
sisted of long glass tube filled with
water nicely balance over his head
and attached by string to an alarm
At the desired hour the bell rang and
awakened the sleeper. If within a
few seconds he did not leap from his
bed and avert the calamity the de
scending weight of the clock destroyed
the balance OF the tube, and down
poured the water on his guilty head

KASPARILLA

This sterling household remedy has
long been recognized as the best and
safest Blood Purifier, the most successful
prescription for spring humors and such
disorders of the blood as boils, pirnples,
pustules, blotches, sores and cutaneous
eruptions. Kasparilla is admitted to be
the best remedy for that lack of energy
and the peculiar debility so prevalent
during the close of winter and the opening
of spring. For arrangements of the di-
gestive organs it is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthy activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting Wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, Irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
Strengthening tonic of the highest value.
