Good Truck Farming.

II the farmers along the line of the
Houston Central road, from Mer
Rouge to Alexandria, do not go into
the raising of early potatoes for the
Northern market next year, it will not
be because they have not had an OBJ
iect lesson taught them this spring.
Those who had the enterprise this
spring to plant early potatoes and to
ship them have reaped profit over
and above all expenses of $50 an acre,
and in some instances more than that.
That boots cotton, and not only that,
cotton can be planted after the pota-
toes have been dug, thus making two
crops on the same acreage.

Judge Kinder's court, Thursday,
against the city of Lake Charles, en-
joining the city from selling certain
property for city and special water
works taxes. alleging the said proper
ty is outside the original town of Lake
Charles, as incorporated under act 70
OF the general assembly of 1867, and
alleging as further grounds that all
amendments extending the limits of
said town of Lake Charles, changing
Its name, ETC., are unconst itutional and
unauthorized by said act 70. The pc
tition also alleges that the present
charter Of Lake Charles is void in to-
to. City Attorney Joe Moore will
contest this suit to the turthest limit,
and the courts will probably be full OF
it for some time to come.
