This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Annual Register of Porto Rico, 1901 From many standpoints it seemed wise to inaugurate the custom of publishing an annual register for the Island of Porto' Rico. It is proper that knowledge of the government, federal and insular, be made as public as possible, yet that such knowledge be had from some single concise publication covering the various forms and branches of the government, their functions, powers, and duties, including brief historical data. The usefulness of such a book to members of the Legislature and officials generally, is apparent. It is a manual containing rules of the several legislative bodies, sketches of the towns, post offices, statistics and other information. No style is more suitable for such a record than an annual register giving the condition and nature of the government, its transactions and status at the close of each fiscal year. It has been the aim to prepare this 'the first register with every regard to the range of information peculiarly necessary to be covered in Porto Rico, and at the same time to make plain and strictly correct statements only.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Register of Porto Rico: For 1905, Compiled by the Secretary of Porto Rico, December 1905 The good price obtained for last season's crop has boom ed the sugar industry of the island and great activity is now being shown in the opening up of new land, formerly used only for grazing purposes, in order to supply the growing capacities of the mills. New centrals have been built, others are in course of construction, and all the old factories of any importance are installing modern machinery. The introduction of improved agricultural implements into the island during the past few years, has permitted the more rapid exploitation of great areas of land at a consider ably less rate of expense than was formerly possible. The use of fertilizer has become more prevalent and has amply repaid those who have made use of it. The manufacture of sugar can be undertaken profitably only by capitalists, and on a large scale with modern ma chinery. Sugar land is easily worth $100 per acre and a sugar central will cost approximately A net profit of $75 to $100 is a fair yield per acre.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty Years in Porto Rico: A Record of the Progress Since American Occupation The second voyage of Columbus while not as auspici ous as the first, was in many ways, just as important. At the head of a great fleet he sailed majestically along the northern coast of Porto Rico, anxious, no doubt, to join his ill fated comrades he had left behind him. The ships needed fresh water however, and he sailed into the beautiful bay on the shores of which Aguada and Agua dilla are now situated. His search for water was short. One hundred yards from the beach an underground river belched forth'. From this gushing cataract the water kegs were filled and the fleet sailed on to Santo Domingo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Child of the Sea: The Chronicle of Porto Rico There were in the whole Island unusual problems to be encountered in the first years of upheaval of certain customs and of disturbance of public opinion which attended the change of government from the Spanish to the American - every day_ problems, involving the foreigner as well as the native, and touching more than the money standard and party nomenclature -even the very thought and language of the people. And the more isolated parts were slower to conform to these changes than were the coast cities, which from the first were in close contact with the Army of Occupation, and later on with the hurried influx of Americans bent upon all manner of enterprise. Therefore, selections from the letters and journals written dur ing the twelve years of the writer's association with the work of the mission (1899-1911) include only such extracts con cerning life in the cities as seem necessary to the continuity of the narrative.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anemia in Porto Rico: 1905 Preliminary Report, English-Espaol The physicians who were to take charge of the substations were invited to visit the Central Station at the expense of the appropriation, to observe the methods of working, manner of keeping records, etc., thus insuring uniformity in the data obtained at the various stations. This system of substations was somewhat of an experiment and its sucwss has been one of the most gratifying results of the years work. It proves the feasibility of establishing a number of stations in various parts of the Island, which will work in harmony under a central direction. We acknowledge with pleasure that the credit belongs more to the directors of these stations than to the Commission which exercised only an administrative function toward them. Their statistics have been tabulated with those of the Central Station for the purpose of showing the combined results of all stations. The directors of substations were also requested to submit a few remarks on the work in their districts together with any considerations that they might wish to make upon the subject generally. Their opinions without alteration or comment have been inserted in this report under the heading, Reports from Substations. For sake of convenience, we have grouped the statistics at the end of this report, and only insert here summaries of various tables as we discuss the conclusions which may be drawn from the facts they contain. The disease is one to which the white and mixed races are predisposed, having always in mind, however, the possibility of encountering serious symptoms in the infected negro. We were working in a part of the Island where the negro is relatively rare, with exception of two substations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Porto Rican Beekeeping The exports of honey 3 in 1897 (immediately preceding American rule) amounted to liters, valued at 405 pesos, which was all shipped to the United States. The local consumption of honey is small even yet, so that the amount exported gives a rather accurate idea of the honey produced or Obtained from wild colonies. The limited local consumption is probably due to the use of honey chie y as a medicine by the people of Porto Rico. Gifford records finding charred tabanuco trees on the Luquillo National Forest, probably purposely fired by some native to secure honey or for some other purpose. It was recognized, however, that there was opportunity for the development Of the industry. The veteran naturalist, Dr. Augustin Stahl,5 of Bayamon, wrote in 1899 as follows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Island of Porto Rico: Its Population, Civil Government, Commerce, Industries, Productions, Roads, Tariff, and Currency, With Recommendations The climate is tropical, but not torrid. Though the heat is con tinuous, it is not extreme. The thermometer rarely rises to The highest monthly average on record in nine years in San Juan was 86° (in June, The hottest day in that period gave a tempera ture of but there was only one such day. The temperature is equable, and rises or falls through a very limited range. The highest point reached by the thermometer in San Juan in the period from November, 1898, to July, 1899, inclusive, was the -month of June. This was for one day only, and on no other day of that month did the temperature exceed The lowest range in the same period was The winter season extends from October or November to March, inclusive. No really Oppressive weather was seen in the capi tal during those months in 1898 - 99. Showers came frequently, but were of short duration and were mostly at night. Every day the unfailing trade winds blow from the east or southeast, making the air delightfully fresh. The nights are cool and comfortable. The sum mer season is marked by a slight increase in the average temperature, much more rain, and a great deal of humidity. The continuity of the heat and the unfavorable conditions for evaporation of perspiration make the climate somewhat enervating. San Juan has an elevation of only about 100 feet. In the mountains the higher elevations dimin ish the amount of heat, and Aibonito, Cayey, and Utuado are con sidered as remarkably cool cities. Occasionally the island is visited by a disastrous hurricane. The first record of one of these tropical terrors was in July, 1515. They come at irregular intervals and with varying degrees Of force. The most Violent storm the island ever knew, according to history, was in August, 1772, when houses were demolished, trees uprooted, planta tions flooded, and many people killed. In September, 1806, there was another visitation of less destructiveness, and still another in September, 1819. The latter was followed by a famine. The hurri cane of October, 1867, was very severe. In August, 1886, the south coast was ravaged and the coffee plantations in the southwest snfiered severely. The last furious storm occurred August 8, 1899, and was terribly destructive, particularly on the eastern and southern coasts and in the interior. Humacao was well-nigh destroyed; Yabucoa, in the beautiful valley of the same name south of Humacao, was a heap Of ruins, and but little was left of the old town and port of Arroyo. The damages at Ponce and at the port of Ponce, on the south, were extremely heavy. The streets were swept by a flood and many houses were torn from their foundations. The crops of coffee and cane were quite generally destroyed in the east, in the south, and in the interior, and orange and other fruit trees were uprooted or stripped by the vio lence of the wind. Arecibo, on the north coast, directly across the island from Ponce, also suffered great injuries. Between and persons lost their lives, and the destruction of live stock was very great. The fall of rain was enormous, amounting to inches at Juana Diaz, north of Ponce, in twenty-four hours. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
