considerably improved. The only dis
quieting news of the day was the re-

portance of this break was minimized
to some extent by the news that the
damage resulting would be largely con
fined to the state farm located there.
The eleven miles of levees protecting
Angola have cost approximately $780,

victs there had been removed to the
Tunica hills as matter of precaution
and steps taken to protect the camps.
The plantation is one of the best in
the state, and the cotton grown upon it
has been large source of revenue.
