Newspapers are great educators but
often, when extending advice on sub
jects of which they are ignorant,
prove a stumbling block entailing
loss, and that serious. on the unso-
phisticated. More especially does this
prevail wnen dwelling on agricultural
interests. The average editor does not
know cockleburr from a cotton
stalk, or an Irish potato vine from a
skeleton geranium, yet they will come
forward with their advice to diversity
crops, and will tell you by way of il
lustration to plaut Irish potatoes, in
sinuating that it is little trouble to
raise 400 bushels per acre, and that
they are worth at all times soc per
bushel Now l know that the man.
ayers of the papers are conscientious
in placing these statements before the
public, but they are based upon the
statement of some popinjay whose
bushels are peck measure. and
whose ideas of farming are about as
intelligent as the average negroes
Now am heartily in favor of diver
sified farming, but my experience has
taught me that three years in five
Irish potatoes will yield less than 100
bushels per acre, and as a very few
pecks glut our market necessitate the
shipment to other places. The past
has clearly proven that before the
crop can be marketed that loss has re-
suited, thus leaving the producer in
the lurch more than cotton. We |
have an article from the Shreveport |
Times of last week stating that Col. |
r. II, Lindsay had actually shipped |
a car of potatoes aud disposed of |
them without loss to his customers.
Now, notwithstanding these custom
ers did not make anything, yet they
are advised to go ahead and do like
wise another year. The PRoGREss of
July asks who ever heard of onions
selling for less than 81 per bushel! I

Notice To Alliance Men

June, 20, 1898. To the Alliance men
of Louisiana:-I wish to call the at

of sending full delegation of good

To the laboring people, this will

held in the State of Louisiana. and

There is tide in the affairs of or

petent to take the tide ''as it flows"

man to his profession, sir: no one is

Now I would suggest that each
paper that wants to deal with agri-
cultural problems with q view Of in

to secure the service Of some practi-
cal farmer that is willing to stick his
name to his assertions, and have him
transmit the intelligence they wish
to convey. Then if ne should devi-

SOLID TALK.

The appointment of police Jurors
by the governor is not at all in unison
with the primary laws of the great
American republic. The people
should be permitted to say who
should constitute this important body
oftheir local government. There is
entirely too much of this one man
power in Louisiana for the well-being
and prosperity of the State.-Crowley
Signal.
Correct, brotherl keep it standing
at the head of your columns in letters
of gold and agItate it constantly, so
that the people will have perpetual
reminder of the inalienable and indie
feasible lost rights which have been
clandestinely and insidiously purloin-
ed from them, ostensibly to preserve
the elective supremacy of the Cauca-
sian race, but in reality to increase
the power of the monarch.

On Monday night our people will
be presented with an entertainment
which will be something so novel
with us as to be entirely out of the
lines and paths of lecturers. This
will be a lecture on Judaism Ey Miss
Lena Aronsohn, of Hot Springs, Ark
The subject proper is Thoughts on
Judaism, and is said 10 contain jewels
indeed from the mental storehouse Of
a mind rich in culture and depth Of
meaning. She made her debut on
the lecture rostrum last May and
since then has appeared in many
places, winning always her audiences
and challenging the admiration of
men and women of thought. The
papers all pay high tribute to her
talent and womanly graces, and do
her homage with unstinted profusion
Miss Aronsohn is a native Louis
lanlan, but was graduated from the
institute at Marshall, Tex, of which
Prof. G. b. Stuart was principal. She
is Southern girl and belongs to us
all. Let Us pay her that tribute and
homage which Is characteristic of the
Southern gentleman for the fair Sex,
by giving her an audience worthy of
tie occasion. For not only will we
be continuing the practice of South
ern chivalry, but from reports brought
to us, all will be amply repaid for the
time consumed in hearing the lecture,
which will take place at the Syna-
gogue beginning at s o'clock.
