net profit on an acre Of cotton is
$40. The average profit on an
acre of tobacco, where the cultiVa-
ton is proper, ranges from $3.50 to
$500. In this county, where the
industry is in its infancy, 1925 net
profit has been made per acre.

offers advantages to the grower

The season is much longer here
than there, therefore more tobacco
can be grown, and the quality is
better. Curing can be begun
earlier and continued later. It is
needless to expatiate on the ya!ue
Of these two advantages, for any

beneficial to the small farmer-tc

with their own hands. The i'm

are followed here are far superior

ing their intelligence IN a diversity
Of crops and Introduction Of i'm,

trust the good work may continue
until the fertile soil of Vermifion
is made to yield not alone bountlfal
harvests Of sugar, cotton, rice and
corn, but Of all the staple products
adapted to this latitude. Among
these We may enumopate two which
are unqucstionable renumerative in
a large degree, and equally suited
to our soil and climate--toOacco
and the castor bean. It is Of the
former we propose TO treat in this
article.
The culture Of tobacco as a means
Of revenue, il to-day in this State
confined almost exclusively to q
small section of St. James parish,
known as Grand Point Ridge, where
the renowned perique is produced.
While it is usually claimed that this
quality oftobacco can only be pro.
duced in that locality, it is well
known that VermiIion parish pro.
duces as fine an article Of perique
as ever tickled the palate of man.
Not only does the production oil
this grade Of tobacco, Of whose sue
eessful growth here there can be
no doubt, open up untold possibilities
to our people, bat the constant and
steady demand for tobaceoes of all
qualities. makes the industry one Of
increasing development. Fl is well
known that the finest tobacco come
from Cuba and Turkey, and it dee:
not appear improbable that semi
tropical Louisiana should be able tc
more nearly approach the superior
excellence Of those countries thar
her sister States lying further North
OF course we will be met with the
stere6typed objection "Oh, it won'
do to try and raise tobacco here.
the soil is too rank" For quite q
whileit was popularity believed thai
tobacco could not be grown sue
cessful1y outside Of Maryland, Vir
ginia and Kentucky. Today, how
ever, We find that North Carolina
Tennessee and South Carolina, have
become large producers Of the weed
and the acreage is yearly becoming
more extensive.

Of tobacco has increased in NasI

Mending his Nets.

Many centuries ago an old man and his SOM
sat mending their fishing nets in boat upor
little inland sea in Asia. Their boat wa!
anchored near the shore; other boats were
near them, their crews hauling in fish. The
old man, it is likely, was in haste to memo
the nets, and 60 on with the days work.
A Man came down the beach. He called
to them, and babe them lay down their nets
give up their fishing and follow Him. When
they heard Him, something told them in theil
hearts that this call meant that they should
forsake the life to which they had always
been used,-fishing, eating, sleeping, sur
rounded by neighbors and frieDds,-and that
they should begin different work for the
people who were strangers to them.
Here were their nets, their boats, the blue
the coast, the calm little valleys between
here were home and comfort and security.
Yonder was the Man on the shore, calling
to them to follow HINT might be to hun
ger, to pain, possibly to death.
But each man heard God speaking to his
soul in that voice.
The fsherman's sons arose and followed
Him who had called. But their father sal
still and mended his nets.
These two young men, during the rest Of
their lives, wandered homeless, they suffered
persecution, privation and pain, and one al
last persisted as martyr to his faith. But they
helped to bring Truth into the world they
have lifted millions of souls out of barbarism
up to light and freedom and love.
Oftheir father we do not know that he
mended his fishing-nets securely.
Possibly to the reader of this article has
come, or some day will come, the same Voice
saying, Follow Me-"
You will know that it means, Do not any
longer give up your life to the work Of fish
ing or trading or earning money in any way
merely to buy necessaries and luxuries. Fol
low Me. Help your fellow-men to come
nearer to God. Do it in your business in
your daily life. Bring truth and order and
love into the world. Be ready to sacrifice
yourself. 1t may cost you comfort, it may
cost you friends, possibly life itself. Do it.
Have you heard the Voice?

Charles Lambs NrItinrs.

The writings of Charles Lamb are an
excellent illustration of the value of re-
serve in literature. Below his quiet, his
buaintness, his humor and what may
seem the slightness, the occasional or
occidental character of his work, there
lies, as in his life, genuinely tragic
element. The gloom reflected at its
darkest in those hard shadows of Rosa
mund Gray" is always there, though
hot always realized either for himself or
his readers, and restrained always in
htterance. 1t gives to those lighter mat
tiers on the surface of life and literature
among which he for the most part
moved a wonderful force of expression,
as if at any moment these slight words
and fancies might pierce very far into
the deeper soul of things.
In his writing, as in his life, that qniet
is not the low flying of one from the first
drowsy by choice, and needing the prick
of some strong passion or worldly ambi-
ton to stimulate him into all the energy
of which he is capable, but rather the re-
action of nature after an escape from
fate, dark and insane as in old Greek
tragedy, following upon which the sense
of mere relief becomes a kind of passion,
as with one who, having narrowly es-
capped earthquake or shipwreck, finds a
thing for grateful tears in just sitting
quiet at home, under the wall, till the
end of days-Walter Pater.
