Fresh Air The Best Infectant,


Physician, in Chicago Journal gives the
following sensible advice which we repro
duce:
If people only knew the value of fresh
air as disinfectant they would not be so
anxious to close it out of their dwellings.
| don't know whether you know it or not,
but the very best disinfectant in the world
is good, fresh, pure, common atmosphere.
The oxygen that is in it will destroy any
disease germs it can get at, and, take my
word for it, If our houses were well filed
with good, pure atmosphere there would
be much less diphtheria and other diseases
that we have been having lately. The
habit that people generally have fallen
into, as soon as they think winter is ap-
preaching, of filling up every seam and
creyice about the doors and windows, and
mailing their houses practically air tight
and keeping them that way until the fol-
lowing spring, is very baneful one, par
tlcularly so in reference to the easements,
where sewer gas is most likely to accumu-
late and from there make it's way up
through every room in the house.
Of course it is desirable that our homes
should be kept moderately warm and free
from cold draughts, but this is quite COM
patible with an abundant supply of fresh
air. Air, to be fresh and pure, need, not
necessarily be cold, but provisions should
be made, in the construction of our houses,
for thorough ventilation in such way as
to avoid draughts. In houses already
built, however, where such provision has
not been made, little cold air now and
again would be much less detrimental
than the vitiated stuff which the majority
OF people breathe for six months in the
vaar

The Fruits of Enerov.

The Sugar Boaoz and Farm Journal re-
lates the following, which speaks for it.
self:
Last year an old gentleman named Hill,
aged Is years, came from the West, and
undertook the cultivation of thirty five
acres of land on Mr.. Gueble's plantation
in Lafayette, his only assistant being g.
year old boy. The neighbors laughed at
him for undertaking to cultivate so much,
but having been farmer most of his life,
he paid no attention, but faithfully worked
ahead. The result of his labors astonished
everybody, for he made nine bales of cot
ton and 800 barrels of corn! He even
picked the bulk of the cotton himself, and
also had good garden. He supported
his family of five at an expense of $58 for
the whole year All this, too, when he
never grew cotton before. No young man
could dc better. Next season he is going
to plant and cultivate his cotton in checks,
and we have no doubt he will do better
This time he undertakes the cultivation of
fifty acres of land, and he says he will
work for fifteen bales. We wish we had
twenty thousand of such worthy and ener-
getic immigrants for Louisiana.
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1889-02-16

Every enterprising man in Louisiana
sees and will admit the necessity of immi-
grafton into our country. More people
means more labor more labor means more
money, and more money better times and
more prosperity. Let US all help on the
good cause of immigration.-Ruston Cali
graph.
That is stating it in nutshell but it
means several other things. It means
more people to pay the taxes and an in
crease in values, which necessarily reduces
the per cent of taxation. More people
means more and better schools; more and
better schools mean more intelligent and
better citizens, and better country in
every respect Then let us lay aside all
petty and local jealousies and work fer
the general good of the country.-Bieas-

Cane and Cotton Palace,

The ladies of New Orleans, who
are ever to the front when enterprise
and 60 aheadtiveness is required, have
resolved to build a Cotton Palace this
winter. St. Paul may have it's Ice Palace,
Sioux City its Corn Palace, but New
Orleans will have it's Cotton Palace, and
we are vain enough to think that in this
case the last shall be first.
1t will not only be a Cotton Palace but
Cane Palace. and will be built and
decorated throughout with the products Of
the cotton plant and the sugar cane. 1t
will be built on Lafayette Square in the
central portion of the city, and inside will
be found specimens of all the various
plants and industries Of this marvellous
land. One of the finest orchestras in the
country has been already engaged who will
discourse sweet music day and evening.
In addition to this series of tableaux
vivants have been arranged, illustrating
early life in the South. Many other in
teresting things will also take place. The
Palace will be open during Mardi Gras and
for several weeks afterward.
