the chilling blasts upon our deni-

This admonishes us that the days

will commence to lay in supplies
against cold weather and fuel
famine.

The rice mill of the New Iberia
Milling and Development Co, has
commenced operations with full
complement of hands in all depart
ments, with fine stocks of rough
rice, and more being added all the
time by team, river aud railroad.
We notice the active and strong
condition of the market, prices
being very near last years, which
will be stimulant to shippers,
consequently the mills will soon
have all they can possibly do, re-
bounding to their profit and those
interested with them. The ac-
ceptance of a crop on three mill
ion basis is no doubt the factor in
bringing about this satisfactory
condition. Nothing but utter
haste in precipitating large ship
ments on the market can affect the
healthy tone of the market.

In conversation with one of
our Rice machinery men, we were
surprised to know of the great
amount of laborsaving machinery
that is being introduced by the
planters of our parish. The scare
ity Of labor and the high prices
demanded have forced the rice
grower to adopt machinery in the
harvesting of rice. A great many
harvesters have been sold, and
aftera few days trial have proven
= a success, cutting down the cost
Of harvesting the crop immensely
leaving a greater margin of profit
to the producer, which heretofore
was given to laborers who did not
appreciate it. Much complaint has
been made 40 to the unreliability
and scarcity of labor for the rice
fields, often jeopordizing the crop
but the introduction Of the i'm.
proved harvester has been the
salvation Of many a planter, their
success this year assures a more
general use next year when by the
experience gained this year our
planters will in a large sense be
independent of the senegambian
backnumber reaping hook, hereto
fore the nightmare Of hardworked
planters.

The ball game between the
Beigers of New Orleans and our
local team, the Iberias, was largely
attended last Tuesday. II was q
very boisterous game, especially
upon the part Of the Beigers. One
of their number, Mr.. Sentell,
conducted himself in q manner
unbecoming a gentlemen in his
language to the Umpire against
whose decisions he was constantly
rebelling, which eliminated in a
fight aud stopping of the game,

The score at the end Of the game
stood 10 to IL in favor Of the
Iberias. The management should
hereafter refuse Mr.. Sentell ad

demned.
