Humanity Made Fashionable.

Humanity to animals is the fashion in
the North and East and in portions of the
West. Quite the rage, indeed, just as the
Hading veil or any other fad, only this
fashion has come to stay for it grows on
one. Begin to be interested in one philan-
thropic movement, and your heart, so to
speak, overfows it's borders and you be-
come more and more interested in all good
works and more and more in earnest.
1t is quite the thing to be member of
the s. P. G. A. in Boston and New York,
while in Chicago and Cincinnati the swells
are all members of like societies.
Now why should not our S. P. C. A.
become also fashionable organization ?
Education always shows itself in humanity
to man and beast, and so it goes without
the saying that the educated will join any
society to prevent crime and cruelty.
Sometime ago the writer was standing
ing in one of our largest Canal street
stores, and overheard an enterprising sales
lady and the proprietor discussing the
probable demand for those linked silver
girdles. ooh, if l could only get Mrs.
1870 to buy one, she'd make it the fash
ion, said the saleslady, and she called the
name of one of the sweetest young matrons
in fashionable society, and this sweet
young matron is q member of the Louis
lana State s. P. c. A. Why should she
not, then, undertake to make our society
the fashion-to make it, in word, the
fashion, the rage to be humane, to be
good. "'Tis only noble to be good" is
true enough, but it would serve the suf-
fering better were it fashionable to be
good.-N o. Picayune.

Louisiana, Last and Best.

The immigration. Convention recently
| held at Ruston, in the Northern part OF
Louisiana, was an suspicious event. Being
held in the winter season, it supplemented
the convention held in this city last
summer in the same interest. The one
was intended to attract visitors here at
time when they could realize the climatic
conditions in the midst of the warm season.
The other, which assembled at Ruston,
has invited an examination of the winter
season.
People accustomed to broken country
will naturally be attracted to the hills OF
the northern portion of the State. Those
who have been Drawing the billiards of the
North pole upon the bleak prairies of the
| West will obviously be delighted with the
beautiful level expenses of Southwestern
Louisiana. A prairie region where the
orange and the magnolia can grow I'M
blighted by the polar storms would most
strikingly commend itself to immigrants
| from the Northwest, and as an evidence of
the fact we see strong tide of immlgra-
| ton from Iowa to our coast country. Cal
| casieu parish is prime favorite with
those people. They have translated their
homes from one prairie country to another.
Twenty degrees, nearly two thousand
miles 20 the southwark, are pload anu
beautiful expanses of country where the
sun rises and sets behind the level rim of
the green prairie, just as it does in Iowa
and Dakota but here no icy blast from
the pole locks every running stream in
solid crystal or buries the landscape in a
pail of snow. All the year round water
flows and grass grows and the farmer tills
the fertile soil in midwinter that he may

ruary is as April and April as June. No
wonder that they who flee from the biz
card and snowdrift find a chosen refuge in
the balmy cline of the coast plains, where
the golden orange ripens in November,
where the oyster multiplies and fourishes
and fattens in hundred bays and lagoons,
and where herds of long horned cattle
Craze on the winter grasses of seamarsh
and prairie. This is paradise for the
pilgrims from the vast wind swept plains

Peach and Pear Culture.

Thinking that useful knowledge should

now bearing all right, and are practically
blight proof. The natural deduction is
that we can have any variety of pears we
wish by planting dwarfs, as he did, for

become standards.

A Significant Move.

An important event in the history of the
sugar industry of Louisiana is the ipcor-
poration of the magnificent Evan Hall es-
tate as ''The Mccall Bros Planting and
Manufacturing Company, limited" This
step is the inauguration of new system
which is likely to promote the develop
ment of the sugar industry.
As the growing of sugar is now con-
Quoted. it is impossible for any one with
out considerable capital or large credit to
acquire an interest in the industry. Plant
ing has become very profitable, the div1-
dends in some instances being 100 per cent
on the money expended in making the
crop, and probably so per cent on the cap
| ital invested.
A great deal of now idle money, in sums
ranging from $500 to $1,000, would, p,
! doubt, be put in sugar planting we're
shares of plantation stock upon the mar
ket. Profitable returns on such stocks
| would largely increase the demand for
them, and would certainly lead to the es-
Enlistment of numerous central factories.
The president of the new company is
Mr.. Henry Mccall, first vice president of
the Louisiana Sugar Planters Association
and one of the most progressive planters
in the State
Evan Hall is probably the largest sugar
plantation in Louisiana, and was estab-
lished more than one hundred years ago
by the great grandfather of it's present
owners. The McCalls have letter of his
written at Pittsburg in 1889, in which he
speaks of starting down the river in flat
boat with provisions for his plantation at
the head of Bayou Lafourcbe. The estate
comprises $500 acres of land, 1000 of which
are under fence and ditched.
Nearly 1900 acres, exclusive of roads
and bitches, is cultivated in cane, corn and
peas. Half the land is cultivated by a
system of white tenantry. The tenants
deliver the cane at the mill at rate regu-
lated by the price of sugar.
The sugar house is equipped with first
class machinery, including mammoth
five-roller, mill, CHARTERS, filter presses,
double effect, vacuum pan, centrifugals,
granulators, etc. On several occasions the
output of the vacuum pan reached 1O0,0 900
pounds of sugar in twenty. four hours. The
product of the sugar house was in 1887
ZOO, 900 pounds, being the combined ag-
gregate of Evan Hall and McManor crops,
and for the last season 8, 105, al pounds of
sugar of its own crop. Evan Hall is one
of the few plantations that did not have
short cane and short crop.
Mr.. Henry Mccall is president of the
police jury of Ascension parish.-N. o.

Onion Sets.

buy from 1900 to 1000 barrels of onion
sets yearly. The crop within six miles of
Louisville amounts to from 5000 to 5000
barrels of 81 bushels yearly. These sets
are all raised from the seed, and the gar
deners raise their own seeds. Most of our
gardeners are German, and it is fact that
all of them get rich, as they are indeed our
most prosperous people. Since 1865 onion
sets have ranged from So to $50 per bar
rel. Last fall we paid So per barrel for
them at the commencement of the new
crop, but in the winter they went up to
SIS and SIT. They are hauled into the
city in wagons holding generally ten bar
rels, and | have many a time paid $3.50
and $500 per load, the highest ever sold
for being $38. These sets are planted
very thick, in rows eight inches apart, and
early in the spring. They were kept en-
tirely free from weeds and grass, and
nothing is allowed to grow with or near
them, constant attention being required to
make understandable. They are gathered
about Aug. /, and placed in loft to dry,
and then cleaned with tanning mill.

EVENING THOUGHTS.

Sitting alone in the twilight
When the weary days work is DER,
My thoughts are waited upward
To brighter, better shore.
l seemed to see through the shadows
A mansion bright and fair,
And white robed angels are singing
With hearts that are free from care
And could not help but wonder,
If when this life is DER.
All that we have yearned and prayed for here
We will find on this other shore
Will the hearts that ached in silence.
Through long and weary years
Find over there secret relief
From all earth's signs and tears.
Then voice came softly to me
Like the Ginning of bell,
Saying, though thy earthly lot is dark,
In Heaven all is Well
Yes, in your Fathers mansion,
Where all is bright as day,
You will find your dreams of beauty
That will never pass away
did not listen longer
To the voice SO low and sweet,
For brighter path seemed showned ma
For my weary toiworn feet.

That on my birth hath smiled
And made me in these latter days
A happy Christian child.

We bless our God for WOndrous wealth,
Through all the bright, benignant year;
For shower and rain, for ripened grain,
For gift and guerdon, far and near,

That watched us through the peaceful days,
That lead us home or brought Us thence,
And kept us in our various ways.

Diffusion Chips as Fuel.

We believe the fuel problem has been
solved by the recent experiment of Messrs.
Shattuck & Hoffman, at Des Lignes plan
tatior, in St. Mary parish. The 20 tons
of chips brought from Texas were first
saturated with water, then run through
their double mill, with rollers 27x4S
inches. with little pressure on the first,
but 1000 lbs pressure on the second mill
The first mill took out most of the water:
Only 60 to IS lbs. steam were used, and
the bagasse burned readily in an ordinary
Sutcliife burner. After starting, no other
fuel was used. They will put in CRATE
bars aud have the blast underneath, and
doubtless this will be the only change
necessary in the burner.-L0. Sugar B0aeE'

One of the finest, most complete and
most praiseworthy exhibits in the palace
is that from Calcasieu parish--the only
parish exhibit yet in place. Here are to
be seen big, sound heads of Creole cab
bages planted at all dates from August to
Jan. 10, which have been growing all
winter. The ladies have specimens of the
Kelsey Japan plum and prune, the Leconte
pear, figs and strawberries both dried and
in preserves. Another object of interest
is the bunch of sugar cane stalks nine feet
long. Quite display of rice in sheaves is
shown, with large amount of corn, which
was highly praised by some western visit
ors. The sulphur mine, eight miles west
of Lake Charles, exhibits crude petroleum.
sour water, sulphur, etc. Twenty eight
inches of the high prairie soil and the sa Il
depth of low rice soil give correct idea
of the character of the ground in Calcasieu.
Mr.. S. Fl. Clements, who is in charge of the
exhibit, expects fresh exhibits daily. He
will soon place on the stand art and needle
work of the ladies and bale of hay,
which represents an industry now almost
the principal one of the people about Jen-
nings.-N O. Picayune.
Calcasieu is the only parish of the State
which has an exhibit in the Cotton Palace,
and it is attracting great deal of atten-
ton. There are on exhibit immense pears,
Japan plums, radishes, turnips and cab
bages raised in the parish together with
specimens of the soil which produced the
Vegetables and fruits. There are also
specimens Of rice and corn and some sugar
