The Supreme Court of New York Downs

New YORK, Nav 9th.-In 1856 George
Rice, the oil refiner well known by his
long litigation against the Standard Oil
trust, purchased from T. B. Mallaby GER
tificate for five shares in the trust. He
asked the trust to issue for it new certif.
cate in his usme that he should have all
the rights and privileges, etc. The trust
refused on the ground that he secured the
shares only to harass and annoy it. He
brought suit some time ago. and a special
term of the Supreme Court rendered de-
cision that the Standard Oil trust make the
transfers as requested. To-day the general
term of the Supreme Court reversed the
order. holding that the transfer is at the
discretion of the trust.

men of getting up another combination,
but with stringent rules which will make
it impossible for collapse TO occur. The
present projected organization is the result.

Sugar-Bowl and Farm Journal, Nov. s.
Last Thursday, at Calhoun, the North Lou
lsiana Agricultural Society held its regular
monthly meeting with a good attendance.
Vice President j. w. Jones called the
meeting to order, aud announced the question
parish fairs Hon. L. E. T. Sellers, j. H.
Sheppard, w G. Stubbs, FL H Hargrove, and
s. n. Camp were the speakers.
After adjournment for dinnei The commit
tee was appointed to report on the exhibition
of farm and garden products in the hall and
reported as follows:
Your committee appointed to examine ex-
hibits in the hall respectfully report that they
find a fine display of sugar cane, cotton, gar
den products, millet maize, kaffif, corn, pea
vine, pumpkins and station exhibits of 10
varieties of sugar cane grown on the farm this
year in connection with successful sugar
making il our presence. We commend this
{ important industry to the farmers of North
Louisiana as more important than any we are
now engaged in. Through the faithful and
persistent efforts Of Prof. Stubbs and his as
sistant, Major Lee, the farmers of our hill
lands can now engage in another money MAX
ing crop, with the assurance of handsome
profits. The success of this important ex-
pertinent is of untold value TO our whole State
and amply compensates for every outlay on
the Experimental Station.
We do earnestly call the attention of the
farmers of North Louisiana to the profits de-
rived from these monthly meetings, and urge
all to attend, assuring them that they will be
well paid for time and expense for meeting
with us. We award premiums for pumpkin
and cotton to Neville Camp, a little boy four
years old; for peaVines and largest cane to
John Camp; and to tile Station for variety
display of sugar cane and garden products.
Sugar making in North Louisiana was
selected as the next question for discussion,
with the following speakers Young McFar-
land of Lincoln; j, G. Camp, of Ouachita; }.
NJ. White, of Lincoln; G. G. Davenport, OF
Morehouse; n. Haggette, of Madison, j. G.
Lee, of the Experiment Station, and j. J.
Stubbs, of Bossier. These gentlemen will be
greatly aided in their subject, as the Expert
mental Station at Calhoun is now making 125
pounds of sugar per ton of cane on Victor

entire cost of outfit labor and material is less
