Paul W. Daniels informs the Jour
nal that his experiment Of sowing oats
on land heretofore used exclusively
in the culture of rice, has proven a
success beyond his expectations.
Through a force of habit he flooded a
portion of the crop which proved dis
astrously, but from I35 acres he ex-
poets to realize $500 bushels, which
means a saving of something like
81, 100 or $500 in feed bills. The
Oat crop will be harvested in time to
put the same GRAND in rice for this
season. SO wsd pleased is Mr.. Dan
iels with disappointment that he says
he will in all likelihood SOW double
the acreage next year, or about 1000
acres.

confidence in the field is growing so
that new wells to be drilled are in
contemplation and estimates are being
made as to their cost. The expense
OF developing the oil lands in and

many owners of reasonably certain
oil property have been unwilling to
pay the fancy boom" prices former

a disposition to adopt business meth

Letter to Davidson & Martin.
WELSH, LA.

Dear Sirs: Your business is, when a
house burns down, to give the Ownt
some money to build a new one. It is
a good business. Queer that the
world got On so long without it.
We paint the one that burnt down
and the new one too. What is better,
we paint the houses that don't burn.
You insure houses that burn; we
insure the houses that don't. You
have the ashes and smoke; all the
houses are ours.
We paint -and-zinc; Devoe.
We sell, the paint to painters: we
don't paint.
Lead-and-oil is the oldfashion paint.
Devoe is zinc ground in with lead
and linseed oil; the best paint in the
world; and the cheapest, because it
takes fewer gallons than mixed paints
and it wears twice as long as lead
and-oii. Nobody wants poor paint;
there's lots OF it, though, in the world.
A NJ Griffin, Plainfeld, N ], writes:
MIR Aaron Higgins,of PlainfieId,
always used Is gallons of mixed paint
for his house. Last Spring he bought
10 gallons of Devoe and had 4 gallons
left"
Yours truly
