investigation of scuppernong Crane.


The United States department of
agriculture is Investigating the Soup
pernong grape with view to deter
mining the best varieties, methods Of
culture, pruning. training, etc., as we'll
as the uses to which the fruit can be
put. One Of the features Of this inves-
tigation which is considered of partic-
ular Importance is the locating Of
vines of this type, either wild or in
guilty alton, that are knotan to excel
in productiveness size, color or quail
ity of fruit, or in some other impor-
tant particular. In this connection,
the viticulturist of the bureau of plant
industry, who has the work in charge,
will be glad TO receive reports on such
vines from persons who know of their
existence, stating the facts regarding
them and the points of special merit
that have been observed in them. Cor
respondence regarding such vines
should be addressed to George C. Hus-
man, Viticulturist, Bureau of Plant
Industry, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture. Washington, D. c. The de-
partment will, upon application, fur
nish special mailing boxes and franks
with which specimens Of choice varie-
ties can be forwarded to the Yiticultur-
ist for examination, without cost to
the sender.

Business In New Orleans.

The following excerpts from Dun S
Review Of Aug. p, showing general
and market conditions at New Orleans,
will prove Of interest:
General Conditions General trade
conditions are favorable. Jobbers OF
groceries and provisions report an
increased volume OF business. The in
crease in coffee quotations has stimu-
lated the coffee market and the move
ment of coffee is comparatively large.
In clothing, dry goods, notions, etc.,
orders for future delivery are coming
in quite satisfactorily and the move
ment of merchandise to fill orders is
fully equal to what it was a year ago.
Retail trade is fairly good.
Cotton-Receipts of cotton for the
season are 7,184,318 bales, as against
I, 713, 1888 last year. Stocks at all ports,
9l,9 49 bales, as against 166, 1855 last
year. The future market during the
past week has advanced steadily and
closed firm at an average of 120 to 125
points over what it was week ago.
Some excitement was caused by a
failure on the local market, whichc caused
good deal Of covering on the part OIL
shorts. Spot cotton has also ad.
vanced, closing at Ill cents, as against
% cents last week.
Sugar-Receipts Of plantation sugar
are light, with the market strong, but
there has been no change in quota
tions. Refined sugars are quiet and
also unchanged. Molasses nominal.
Rice-The movement of rough rice
continues comparatively large, offer
ings are in excess of requirements and
there was decline of ten to twenty
cents per sack. Receipts of rough rice
for the season amount to 81, $50 sacks,
against 20, 66o a year ago. There is
only a moderate demand for clean
rice, with prices somewhat easier. Some
local dealers and some of the country
mills are carrying heavy stocks from
the old crop, which have tendency to
depress the market.

PROCLAMATION.
Governor Blanchard Announces the se-

Day at the Worlds Fair.

Governor Blanchard Announces the Sc
lection of Sept. IA as Louisiana
Day at the worlds Fair.
Great accessions Of territory, by
one nation from another, come usually
as the result of war. But we of the
great republic rejoice that the Louisi-
ana purchase transaction, which
doubled the area of the United States,
did not involve the shedding of hui
man blood nor the sacrifice of human
life.
The celebration of this peaceful
event by the enlightened people of the
world is peculiarly appropriate.
This is being done in the greatest
of expositions the world has ever
known, now being conducted at St.
Louis. It commentaries the centen
NAL Of an occurrence second only to
the declaration Of independence in the
history of the United States. This
was the transfer by France to the
United States, one hundred years ago,
OF the vast region known as Louisi-
ana.
Our own state was the spot where
the actual transfer took place, there
fore it is that Louisiana is entitled to
take precedence among the states of
the union in the Louisiana purchase
exposition-an exposition where the
most complete display ever made of
the achievements of the human race
may be found tremendously repre-
sented as BETTING testimony to the
wonderful progress following the &C.
QUESTION of this broad domain.
Louisiana, the Oldest state in the
purchase, the mother Of thirteen beau
tiful and vigorous daughters, proposes
the fourteenth of September day
Justly memorable in her annals-as
ssher day. and at that time will
take possession OF the exposition and
by appropriate services and cere-
monies commemorate the centennial
| Of American domina alton.
| She notifies her sons and daughters
to assemble on that day at the Cabildo
| Louisiana state building) on the fair
grounds at ST. Louis, and assist in
the great celebration. And let us
make it the occasion of declaring to
the people of the world what goodly
| land is this state of ours and what is
its assured promise of even crater
development and prosperity.
She invites the governors and peo-
pie of her sister states of the Louisi-
ana purchase to join in her celebra-
ton to the end that together they may
demonstrate what a prineely empire,
filled with many millions of prosper
Gus freemen, has been evolved from
the purch ase of 1903.
The chief executive hopes that as
many as possible of the loyal sons and
daughters OF the state will be present
at ST. Louis on sLouisiana Day" to
| lend lustre and add enthusiasm to the
occasion.
In testimony whereof, / have here
unto set my hand and caused to be af-
! fixed the great seal of the state OF
Louisiana at the city Of Baton
Rouge, this 10Th day Of August, in
the year OF our Lord, nineteen hun
dred and four, and of the independence
of the United States of America, the
one hundred and twenty ninth, and of
the state of Louisiana the ninety
/ third.
