An exceedingly ugly center OF infection
was unearthed In St. Charles Parish to-
day by Or. Corput, OF the Marine Hos
Bpital service. Two Gays ago he unearthed
six cases on the diamond plantation and
to-day he found two more cases on that
place and eleven cases on the reserve
plantation, eleven miles further north,
and one case on the Spray plantation. It
\ Is believed that over thirty 1tailans have
8 left this group In the last week, but
there is no trace OF them nor will there
be unless Infection should develop among
them at that place OF refuge Two Of the
cases on the reserve Tplan.a tion died while
Or. Corrupt was there. 4
H This plantation belongs to the God
tchaux estate, and DR.. Godchaux has
taken charge OF the situation there and
Will carry out the instructions Of the
Marine Hospital Service.
Five more cases have developed at Pat
terson in st. Mary Parish. making thirty
cases in all there. While the Infection!
was taken there BY Italians from the
Infected district s.in New Orleans, the
disease has spread among the residents.

Doctors now believe that II the first
cases had been taken hold OF at once

smaller than has been now recorded
Many cases which have been reported
lately, except among Italians. are mliu
in character and readily respond to treat

Before the session of congress had
been concluded he went to Philadel-

eral weeks; but did not secure COM
plete relief. He returned to his
home at Trenton. but upon a return
OF the nervous troubles he decided

almost permanently during the sum-
mer months, looking after his extern
sive farming interests.

II SIXTY PER CENT ACREAGE.
So Now is Equivalent to $50
Six Months Hence.

my idea is that there will be a
sixty per cent acreage in Louisiana
this year, SO spoke S. Locke
BreauX, rice commission man and
former president of the Board of
Trade of New Orleans. in cOnversa-
ton with Times Record reporter at
the Mahatfey otel Monday night.
Mr.. BreauX left New Orleans last
Wednesday for a trip through the
Louisiana rice belt and has spent FIVE
days travelling from one rice field to
another in buggy. Thi, trip was
made for the purpose of finding the
acreage of the rice crop this year.
And think that is going to mean
that present advance in prices will be
sustained into the new crop" con-
tinued Mr.. Breaux. This acreage
means, that with favorable growing
and crop conditions, there will be a
maximum crop in Louisiana and
Texas of three and half million
bags. | consider the outlook bright,
although | believe the mill men will
be the men to complain for the
ODSlOuS reason llldl tIlefe Will nOG De
rice enough to 60 around as far as
they are concerned. But their
scramble will mean the profit of the
growers who will get outside prices
of what he makes.
II don't think it wise to hold back
too much. Present values are much
better than we figured on and the
time to sell is when buyers want the
goods. If we set our peg too high,
buyers will drop out and then your
quotations will become nominal and
to get the trade interested means cut
ting of prices.
Don't forget that it costs money to
carry rice and that $3.50 now is
equivalent to $500, six months hence.
If we continue to work the stock of,
it will mean that we will 60 next
season with normal supply but il
we hold back and carry over every.
thing and in addition to that, the
Lord is good to US and gives US a
maximum yield, maybe prices won t
be SO high as some of US think and
hope for.'

which the court says:
l. Act l34 of 1890, p. ia, makes it
unlawful to abduct a woman of pre-.

Many OF these fields near Crowley are

prospect for an unusually good
