The Louisiana State Fair and Shreve-
port Exposition will present its Fourth
Annual Exhibit at Shreveport, beginning
Tuesday, the Sth day of October, and end
ing Monday the 18th. Past experience
enables the management to enlarge the
scope Of usefulness and attractiyeness of
the various exhibits Of our agricultural
and other products, and increase the pre-
mium lists to the highest point of liber-
ality. Better crops, fatter and better cat
tie. larger and stronger work animals,
ana encouragement in all INDUSTRIAL ur-
suits is the sure outcome of these annual
exhibits. Everybody should raise some
thing for competition, or send something
useful or attractive to exhibit, and 90 to
Shreveport during Fair week. An i'm
mense number OF attractions are engag-
ed by the management that will prove
Instructive as well as amusing.
Competitive prize and exhibition drills
of the crack military companies of the
Southwest will be a grand feature of the
Exposition. A special committee are
now perfecting arrangements TO enter
tain them.
Trotting, running and pacing races
will have an unusual number of entries
of the fastest horses.

Happy Cameron.

Cameron parish, in the southwestern
corner of this state, ought certainly to be
the happiest. as it certainly is the
most unique parish we ever heard of.
The Lake Charles Commercial Informs
us that at the recent session OF the dis
trict court held there not single crimi-
nal ease appeared on the court docket,
and that such had been uniformly the
case for several wears. We doubt il a
parallel to this can he found anywhere
in America. We distinctly remember
the time the press convention met at
Lake Charles and the editors went on a
junketing tour to the gulf how much sur
prised every body was on arriving at the
county seat to find that the Jail was not
only devoid OF criminals, but had actual
ly been rented out to some thrifty farm
erS for use as corn crib,
While we congratulate the good people
Of Cameron on their highly moral state,
we can not but express feeling Of SYM
patty for the lawyers, criminal officers,
and other gentry who must necessarily
thrive on the misfOrtunes of the masses,
and who, in the very nature Of things
must suffer in the present condition of
affairs in our sister parish. 1t is also a
significant fact that Cameron has no
newspapers, railroads, telegraphs, real
eatate agents, banks, saloons, few schools
and other necessities OF modern times.
Upon the introduction of these the moral
of the parish will retrOgrade.-Acadia

Keep Your Lamps Trimmed
and Burning.
NatchitOches Review.

NatchitOches Review.
We cannot be too positive in our advice
to our friends that they should burn
lamps in the cotton fields at night. One
of our colored renters, Henry King, and
a reliable cOlOred man, used four lamps
on twenty acres Ot cotton, and caught
80 cotton caterpillar moths in two
nights. This was destroying more than
$1,000 worms. and at very little cost.
But suppose these $4,000 worms webbed
up. and Matched ont say $1,000 moths
males in proportion OF 3 to :, in every
IO--and the females each Deposit 400
eggs, what swarm Of caterpillars will
be on hand for our Paris green sprink-
klers.
LIGHT LAMPS! Let every one do this
and we need not anticipate the use OF
poison. A common brass lamp in -
inch tin plate the tin phate half full
with water on which floats enough coal
oil to cOver-set on stake with plank
stand on top, stake Just ABOVE the cottOii,
that will do the business. Now don't go
off and show yourself an eyerlanting ig-
nOramus by shaking your head and
swearing it won't work." Such mOa-
key business as that has got the whole
state laughing at you. Our dear friends,
there are great many things you don't
know. We found out when we first went
to cotton planting nine years ago, one
things, and that was that barring few,
you were the very lamest excuses for
cotton planters We ever saw. We don't
know much, but what little we have
learned is by doing just contrary to what
you do. BURN LAMPS!

To days tariff talk is simply an
abstract of a statement prepared by
the State Statistician of Ohio
When the Mills bill was before
Congress it was asserted by Demo.
Gratis on farm property alone in
Ohio was $7oI 900, 900. Instead,
the total on all kinds Of reality from
city and countryis but $33o,9oo,25o.
OF this not more than Sos ,oco, 600 is
on farm property. The statistics
show that farms i'll the vicinity OF

mortgages, and those most remote
from manufacturing centres are the
most heavily incumbered.-Neu
