Rice Crop Bulletin.

Mcssrs. Dan Talmage's Sons, in their
Bulletin No. 4, Rice Crop Of 1892, issued
in New York August Is, say:
The season of growth is rapidly merg-
ing into harvest time, and planters are
about to reap the fruit of their labOrs
and justify their faith in this cereal. In
the CaroliDas the growth during past
month has been SO rapid that the largest
crop since the war is now in sight. In
Georgia conditions have been such as to
more than make up for the ground lost
in tie early part of the season. Florida,
Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas,
though possibly indicating less interest
in the culture than in the older rice
States, report excellent prospects where
ever planting has been entered upon.
Louisiana, as noted in our last, is the
banner State; prospects were tilatter-
ing then, but now they exceed the most
sanguine predictions of early spring and
fully bear out our estimates OF June.
Harvesting will soon be general, and
planters will have all they can do util-
izing the labor at hand in taking care OF
the ripening grain, even if weather dur
ing cutting season should be in every
way propitious. The most critical Pc
riod is ahead, and during the next sixty
days planters will watch wind and wea-
ther with as anxious an eye as ever did
IL sailor plOuShing the waves, for dlsas-
ters may arise from rain storms and
gales, very materially changing the
present cheerful aspect.
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1892-08-27
The Situation as We View It.

Matters have been muddled and par
ties fuddIed for several months. We
fail to see that any material improve
ment had been made. Here and there
small efforts have been made to bar
monize the factions, but no important
results have yet come under orr obser-
vation. All Of them seem to us to re-
semble the divide which the white man
proposed to bis Indian fellow hunter.
The Fosterites, playing the part of the
white, say in all the attempts to unity
that we have read of: We take the Of
fees and you do the voting; or, you may
do the voting and we will take the Off
ccs.' Whether the McEuery faction
will speak up as the Iudian is said to
have done, we of course know not, but
guess it will. The Indian said :" Umph,
you no Say turkey to me once" The
Fostcrites never say Office to the AlcEn-
eryitcs once. In looking over the ap
pointments in this parish VIC fail to see
any of them selected, but we think it
likely their votes will be sought after.

A Necessity.

Is there another town in Louisiana
that y0n could not cover with cotton
basket, that has no boy school! 1t
there be We would advise the mission
AIRY societies to send missionaries there
and here to have parents taught tho adj
vantascs of boys and graded schools.
The command given to Adam to go
forth and multiply and replcnish the
earth, is about as faithfully obeyed in
Opelousas as it can be, and yet, with all
the duties which success in that way
CAT impose, parents are neglccting to
provide necessary educational facilities
for these tokens of matrimonial felicity.
What are they thinking of ? Do they in
tend to send them from home? This
were arrant folly. Above all things,
keep them at home. Offer proper in
ducements and teachers will spring up
as numerous as lawyers in the funeral
procession of a rich man or woman.
A graded school here, for both sexes,
is an .absolisle necessity. Will parents
let boys run about town learning all the
vices, and none of the mental cxcellen-
cics which denote refinement!
The marriage of Miss Mckinney, one
of tile best teachers in our public
schools, and her departure from town,
creates a vacancy which ought to be
filled by "a thoroughly competent and
male teacher We hope
that one will soon bc found and that a
graded school will be opened here early
in October.
