How smallpox is Scattered.

In the city council proceedings of
Lake Charles, published in the Press,
we note the following paragraph,
which throws some light or the many
cases of smallpox which have devel-
~oped along the line of the Southern
Pacific. 1t reads as follows:
"And then camethe smallpox ques-
ton. Chief of Police Dees appeared
before the council and stated most
positively that he would not u any

manner by instruction of the mayor

for it and would not do it again. AZ

Investigating Weeds.

Prof. Dedson, botanist of the State
University, arrived Monday and will
be here for some time. Prof. Dod-
son is from the experiment station at
Baton Rouge to investigate the weeds
that get into the rice and injure the
crop. He will report upon the nature,
conditions conducive to propagation
and proper means for exterminating
the same. This will be of value to
rice planters. There are some weeds
that get into the fields and when the
rice is milled the seeds of these weeds
appear and injure the sale of the
cereal. The indigo weed is a notable
example of this, and it is to extermin-
ate this class that Prof. Dodson IS
making the investigation.-Crowley

ALLOTMENT OF WAR BONDS.

ALL THEY ASK

Notices OF allotment were sent out yesterday 70
subscribers to the British war loan. Just what
basis the bonds allotted could Be ascsr-
tanned either at the office OF J. P. Morgan Co.
or Of Barring. Magoun & Co. Inquiry among the
bidders, however. tended TO show that hard and
fast pro rata distribution had been made; that bid
ders for comparatively small amounts received
a fun allotment, while those for larger sums were
in consequence cut down. As a general rule. the
awards were made upon a basis OF about 80 per
cent.
Cecil Barring explained that in the case OF small
bids It customary to make aIlotments for the
whole amount applied for. He said that no
schedule of the amounts bid for and the proper
tionate distribution had been prepared for public
announcement. The fact that the smaller bidders
had been literally dealt with was construed by
some Wall Street bankers 70 mean that the British
Government wanted 10 get as many OF the bonds
as possible in the hands OF small holders. since
they would then be held investment, and
