This is the middle of january,
and in the midst of winter; but
our grass is still green, and q
butchers cart passing by our sane
tum window, suggests TO us that
we might as well inform our friends
of higher Attitudes that our butch
ers furnish MS every morningin our
market, choice, fat beet, fresh from
the prairies Butchers here never
feed cattle for market; they are
always, summer and winter, found
fat enough On the prairie grass TO
satisfy the most fastidious appe-
title. And our shuCksters, sell us
white cabbage, turnips,
green onions, lettuce and radishes
fresh IRON their gardens. Such
things are never put away i'll q
cellar here. They are grown all the
year rOund-anG green .peas will
soon be on hand too think of that.

The Carolina rice crop is now about
all gathered, and the total amount is
about $1,000 tierces or barrels, Of
which 10000 are from North Caro-
lima, $4,000 from South Carolina and
$4,000 from Georgia. The
market for the new crop opened in
October, and since then there has
been a constant and steady demand
at from 6 to u cents for good to
choice rice. Foreign rice has been
entirely neglected. The American
consumers prefer domestic rice
1t is the opinion of the trade that if
the demand for Carolina rice con-
tinues as great as at present, by Feb
ruary the domestic crop will be well
nigh exhausted. = From present
indications prices promise to be
steadily maintained throughout the
season.-Ihe american Protectionist
Now here is statement, from what
seems to be good authority, that the
total crop of North Carolina, South
Carolina and Georgia, equal $1,000
tierces. And according to our As
SCISSORS returns for the year 1882,
1895 barrels were raised in Calcasieu.
The returns for 1883 are not in yet,
but every one knows it is double that
of 1882.
1t would appear from these figures
that Caicasieu is rapidly becoming
something more than stock country.
We predict for this year. twice as
much as that of l888-tbc proba-
biIities arc that the American Land
and Timber Company will make l0O,-
900 barrels itself. That the figures
of 1882 were doubled in 1883, there
is no doubt, and we believe no farmer
will doubt their ability to double his
last years crop this year.
We hope this encouraging exhibit,
based upon facts, will have the effect
of stimulating our farmers to push
ahead this industry, because we are
confident it is source of great wealth
and happiness, which has been given
us.
In 1882, 1862 acres were the est
mated area planted in rice in this
parish, and the total yield on this
area was 1895 barrels, equal to l2B
barrels per acre. And the s2,935 |
barrels, At $3.50 per barrel, shows
that in 1882 Calcasieu WAS benefited
by this cereal to the amount Of sll5,
273-aud whether this amount was
realized in dollars and cents or con
sumed here, it does not matter, il did
our people that much good.

Owing to the fact that the Dis
triet Convention met Oh Thursday
and we went to press Friday, and
the proceedings coming to us late
Thursday, we were not able to make
mention in our last issue, and avail
ourselves of this issue to speak of
it. The business was dispatched
with a strict observance of the pub
lie interest. The members were
representative men, able and fully
identified with the interest of the
constituency they represented
Nothing was done with vulgar
haste, but the wants of the people
being well known to them, and q
thorough acquaintance with the
nature of the services they were
sent here to perform, enabled them
to meet and tremendously execute
the trusts at once, and hay the re
suits before the people. That their
work has been well done, no one
will question, we believe, and III
the selections for Senators are con
centrated such qualifications as
must make them particularly ac-
ceptabIe We must say, we are
gratified with the generosity OK
tended to Calcasieu in their unan-
imOuS and cordial acceptance Of
Mr.. Hampton, Calcasleu's candi.
date presented to the convention.
Mr.. Hampton is not lawyer, iurist,
nor politician, but lie is q man Of
known honesty, integrity Of puT-
pose, Of sound moral worth, thor
Oughly and materially identified
with this parish, Of sound reason
ing, one who, mas always manifested
that sOlicitude for tn" public veal
which evidences his worth to the /
community and the safety Of Cal
casien's interests in his hands. So
we say to the voters Of Calcasieu,
yOu have the right man in the right .
place. and now show for once that
Calcasieu has $500 voters who
say so.
Mr.. Foster, Of st. Mary, is a vete-
ran legislator, gifted, honest, in
every way identified with the dis
srict, and his previous career in the
Senate sets aside any question as
to his worth to the people Of this
listrlct-a better selection could
not he made. I'VE ask for him
300 votes, too To the gentle
men Of the convention from Yer
million and Cameron as well as st.
Mary, we extend to You all our
highest gratitude for the courtesy
shown Calcasieu by you, and will
not forget to reciprOcatc your kind

Some time back we heard some talk
of a proposition to cut a canal from
some point on Big Lake to Sabine
Pass; but this important subject, it
seems, from the silence manifested,
sas crept ont of mind. Was ii de-
.eided to be impractic;lble, or too ca
Pcnsive! We need something to ia
eilitate the shipment of our lumber to
foreign ports, and It matters bnt iittle
how this desirable want he obtained,
whether by means of this proposed
canal, by improving the outlet Of the
Calcasien, or ~ railroad to Sabine
Pass. That additional facilities ARE
needed, besides that T our present
railroad, none interested will deny.
The position in which orr mill men
and merchants are placed is, to say the
least, unfortunate. 1t was hoped that
when wc had railroad facilities our
wants wonld be supplied, so far as
transportion for our products went.
But, though such is the ease, we have
also practically learned that NC have
an insatlatC railroad company that
stops not at gobbIing up our products
in its charges, bat, by it's indiffer-
renee as 10 facilities and accommoda-
tlons, almost amounts TO as much as
to say, if yOu are not satisfied with
our way, You can keep your stuff at
home. Hence, the increase of products
and the increased milling facilities de
mands something more in the way Of
transportation, and our farmers, mil
men and merchants will do well 10
give the subject their immediate and
earnest attention We were told that
Uncle Sans engineers were some time
ago making surveys and examinations
necessary to enable reporting inteIli- .
gently upon this canaI question, but !
We hear nothing of what they have /
done. If their report is unfayorablc
10 cutting a canal, it would be well .
that they let us know it at once, in /
order that we may bejustified in shift "
ing about in other directions for other
methods Of accomplishing the pur.
pose. And if the canal is practicable,
and not too expensive, We would like
to know it at once, and have our
relieved. We have rapidlv
growing industries Of various kinds,
in which arc being invested large
amounts Of solid capital. which will
at no very distant day, demand much
greater marketing facilities, and sug-
gests in advance, solid attention to
their wants, in more ways than one,
We know we have some among us who
CAN'T see this, and think, perhaps, We
are more speculative than practical,
but We rely upon the intelligence and
practical business tact of our investors
TO consider this question in its proper
light. a nascent prosperity SO preg-
nant with solid, beneficial results as
ours, should be nourished and afforded
ali the facilities necessary 10 expedite
its growth. Therefore, We hope our
suggestions may NOT be considered
ID too preyious.'
