l will give your readers a few
scant items from the vicinity of
the Village of DusOn. The rains
since nine days have ceased
much to our delight as it has
destroyed one half the cotton
crop and rOtted much corn. 1t.
rained eighty days and rice
cutting is still going on in the
mud. There are ten deep wells
for rice irrigation in this the
second ward of Lafayette parish.
The crop this year is very good
but sales are unsatisfactory and
the rice industry to the raiser
is selling at a loss; but the con
sumer will not grumble. We
had the finest cotton crop ever
planted IN the parish until the
excessive rains destroyed about
one half with the army worm to
help them. Stock is fat and
healthy. Fresh beef is worth
six per pound, eggs fifteen cents
per dozen, corn eighty cents per
barrel and not much to sell, fine
clean rice q per pound. Cotton
pickers wanted, IS cents per
hundred and board is offered.
I will give a few farmers
remedies for certain diseases.
For chicken cholera, Epson salts
and crude carbOlic acid in their
food, five grains of salts, three
drops acid to each fowl. Wet
corn at night, pour off all waite r,
put medicine on damp corn, feed
next morning. Blue stone in
water, make it weak, will cure
sores on ones hands and those
on children also, but it must not
be too strong. Fall gardens are
good. Sweet potatoes are fine,
plenty fat hogs, so, Mr.: Editor,
when you come to see us you
may omit the dinner. Our lands
are so productive farmers can
make more than they can gather.
Cotton sells we'll and the colored
brother is in high glee, especially
when returning from selling a
load of cotton and tanking up
highly. No more for this time.
