simply marvellous exhibition. Among
some OF the pictures presented was an
oriental railroad train In full motion
skirting along tortuous gorge and just
skimming along the great desert in
Arabia. Ping pong was humorous in
cident, with novel outfit. The picture
represented two plasterers playing
the game at noon hour with mortar
board and plasterers' level for ping
pong outfit, trowels for rackets and
potato for ball. The procession OF the
royal herd OF elephants in far-away
Ceylon was interesting. A fire scene
was realistic and thrilling. The coro-
nation ceremonies in Westminster ABB
hey were carried out without a hitch.
Scene after scene, glory after glory fol-
lowed each other with matchless splen-
dor. The magic pictures presenting the
marvellous acts OF the great and clever
magician, Robert Houdyn, the wonder
worker OF France, must be seen to be
| appreciated, In fact the entire exhibi-
| tion must be seen to be appreciated.

The Rice Crop.

Reports from over the parish are to
the effect that the recent showers have
greatly benefited the rice crop. AL
been visited and many of the pumping
stations that were compelled to aban-
don operations, have been able to re-
sumo. The deep wells are also fur
nishing a better flow and it is conf
IDENTIFY stated by well-informed rice
men that the shortage in this section
will be considerably less than was at
first anticipated. Many fields are be-
ginning to head and those it is claim
ed will be ready for harvesting by the
middle of next month.

Made With Salt Water.

1t has been accepted as a fact that
salt water is death to the rice plant,
but w. F. Perkins, who owns a large
rice farm on Black bayou, which has
during this season been invaded by
sea water, says that if it is the fact, it
is not a fixed fact. He says that when
he found he could get nothing but salt
water for his rice, he began to pump
it on his fields, but did not allow it to
stand on any field but few hours at
a time, drawing it from one field to
another Mr.. Perkins states that his
rice has headed out with full, flinty
grain, and his crop will be made from
salt water American.
