POINTS PICKED
UP BY EXPERIENCE.

No man. that has not handled hun
dreds of fowls should start in with 4
big poultry plant. It is better to be-
gin the poultry business as side is
sue and gradually develop it. The
side issue will teach many lessons that
will be valuable when it becomes the
main issue. The cost of learning is
considerable even with a small flock.
With a large flock it frequently be-
comes SO great that the whole enter
prise is abandoned.
The man that is about to build a
large poultry establishment should
own his land. If not that, then he
should have long lease. To own is
better. The writer Knows of a wom-
an that built $500 worth of poultry
houses on a rented place.. In little
over a year she concluded to move and
sold her buildings at sacrifice, the
same to be moved from the place. Had
she owned the place she might at least
have sold them with the place or
rented them If she rented the place.
AS it was she threw most of her mon
ey away. One advantage in poultry
culture is the constant improving of
the land. The owner usually gets the
benefit of this-not the renter. By all
means build expensive houses only on
your own land. -. =.
Builders Of poultry houses should
consult many plans before building.
BY this means the thoughts Of many
persons will be brought into service.
II the house is built without such in
vestigation, the owner viii be con
stantly finding errors in the original
plan, but too late to correct them sex-
.cept. at great expense. AT the present
time there are many sources from.
which to obtain. plans for such 4
house. The novice IS likely to get
too much or too little glass. He viii

delicious bivalves, they were
served in every style, on the shell,

broiled in a manner to tempt-the
appetite of the most delicate or con-
tirmed dyspeptic, truly feast the
memories of which will long re-
main. Marsh Island, where the
party remained, is on the Gulf and
covered with live oaks and other
shade trees, with fine beach,
making it an ideal resort. If our
canal is dug it will be but y miles
from New Iberia. 1t is without
doubt the finest fishing grounds IN
this section, evidence of which is
the large schools of porpoises
which infest the place in search of
fish food. Twelve miles west is

about 20 families in neat cottages,
who live a life of ease, comfort and

a she'll bank 200 yards wide and
miles in length with millions of
barrels of the small, hard, white
shells which would make New
Iberia's streets and and avenues
famous, could we but get them
here with a reasonable expense.
Mosquitoes bothered but one night
during heavy wind, which
brought them. The nights were
delightfully."- cool, blanket being
used for comfort, and lying in
their hammocks at the sport of the
wind, rocked in the cradle of the
deep, the party passed six delight
full days and nights. The entire
expense was within the reach of
any ordinary person, being about
IS cents per day per capita,
which will commend iteelf to those
desiring "to steal away awhile
from numbering care"

AN ENJOYABLE OUTING.

About ten days ago party Of
gentlemen from our city chartered
a sail boat, we'll manned and went
to the coast for a weeks outing.
The party consisted of Judge Robt.
Brown, S. A. Benthal, d. Blanchet,
Ralph Landry and others, with a
cook, sailing master and assistant.
1t was the intention to 60 to Cypre-
mort Hammock and use the Avery
House on that place, but on arriv-
ing there it was found to be occu-
pied by family, who were enjoy
ing themselves hugely. Thence the
party sailed to South West Pass,
where they anchored about one
hour, meeting a party Of fishermen
from New Orleans who were catch
ing turtles for that market, to be
shipped via Morgan City, instead
of via New iberia, if we had our
canal. These fishermen were catch
ing all kinds of fish, Sheephead,
Reddish, Spanish Mackerel and
many other varieties Of tOothsome
food fish, they were returned to the
water as soon as caught as the dis
lance was too great to market, moth
ing but turtles were kept, which
live for long while without any
care or trouble other than cage or
box, to be delivered as convenient
to the city restaurants, to be con-
verted in the delicious soups and
other famous dishes. The party
visited all the cottages on the is
land, finding them all occupied by
families from various sections, all
enjoying the surroundings and get
ting vigor and health, enjoyment
and recreation from the balmy at
mosphere, the bathing, fishing,
games, and excursions over the is
land. While here the boatman
and his assistant went out into the
bay some two hundred and fifty
yards, where in full view Of the
party he brought up the finest
oysters ever enjoyed, large, salty,

CONSCIOUS VIRTUE.

Gov. Heard of Louisiana has
been notified by the British that
they do not want any Louisiana
cattle with which to supply the
Beers. OF course this is due to
the frantic action of the Governor
in charging that the English were
maintaining recruiting station in
Louisiana. This was ascertalned
to be without foundation. 1t may
be mentioned in this connection
that Texas made no trouble about
the sale of horses and mules to the
English and besides has cattle es-
pecially adapted to the Boer coun-
try.-Dallas NpWs

The Glorious Fourth of July,
the day when ali American patriots
exult, and lovers of liberty every
where manifest their gladness in
grateful recognition of the triumph
of independence, will be gala day
in New Iberia. Iberia Park will
be the scene of numerous attrac-
tions. Base ball, the great ma
tional game, will be in evidence.
The Knights of Temperance and
the Elks will measure the force Of
lances against horns. In such a
contest who can prophesy the re-
suit.
The Gun Club will also be there.
The accurate eye and the steady
hand of the shooters will be tried,
and the prowess Of the successful
competitors will be amply reward
ed. Trials Of speed among lberia's
equine family, trotting and racing,
and numerous other contests will
furnish excitement and pleasure to
all.
The management are also plan
ming many other amusements of a
comical character which will afford
entertainment to the multitude.
The ladies of the Episcopal
church will be prepared to serve
wholesome dinners and dainty re-
freshments. From their we'll
known reputation in this line none
need 60 away unsatisfed.
A ball will take place in the even
ing at the City Hall. SO the day
will end in merriment, and no
doubt all will be inspired with a
greater love for their country, and
be better prepared to resume the
duties of citizenship.

Senator I. J. Liable spent a few
hours in town yesterday and took
private conveyance for st. Martins.
vile from here. In conversation
he spoke of the position he had
taken in regard to the perversion
of funds of the Levee Board of
this district in erecting pumping
plants to give navigable water to
other streams a clear perversion,
as the money raised from the tax
payers of this District is for the
purpose of building levees and for
protection from high water, the
making of navigable streams does
not come within his province. Mr..
Labbe's position is correct, as also
his position on the merger bill, in
which he comedies the right of the
taxpayers of New Orleans to han,
die their own money in their own
way. Senator Liable has backbone
to spare.
