People ought to stop to think
about those things. It is an i'm
|pOrtant matter. It is their own
good that is involved. the welfare
and progress of their community,
therefore of themselves.
A local newspaper is absolutely
necessary to any community.
No merchant, no grand jury, no
town council that spends every
year all it can afford with the
home paper, whether that ex-
penditure is absolutely necessary
or not, makes a wiser, more
profitable investment.
They are not giving" the
home paper something. On the
contrary, it is earning every
cent it gets, and more: providing
it is a paper worth picking up in
the road.
And if it isn't that sort of a
paper it is usually the fault of
the town in which it is published.

erivatio Of Words.

A song of by-gone generation re-
preached the French with calling their
mothers mares" and all their daugh-
tiers allies; and it is easy to imag-
inc that Ally is connected with "flle."
AS a matter Of fact, the word "hlly"
is of Scandinavian origin and is really
q dfminutive of "foal." Shakespeare
makes Puck disguise himself In like
ness of q illy foal." Mare" is the
Anglo-Saxon mere" feminine of
"mearh," q horse. a trace of which re-
mains in "maFshal," which properly
signifies master Of the horse.

La. Planter and Sugar Manufactuser.
The situation in the country
has been seriously modified by
the storm that prevailed during
several days. There was an
immense rainfall throughout the
sugar belt and much of the
sugar cane has been blown
down. This ordinarily does but
little harm to the cane crop, but
occurring now, as it does, just
on the eve of the grinding
season, it is possible that the
resulting harm may be very
serious.
The storm in September, 1877.
about the middle of September,
was followed by a severe freeze
during the last days of Novem-
Der. On the 1st of November
the canes generally were quite
green, and not having recovered
from the effect of the storm that
year and in that condition were
very severely damaged by the
freezing weather at the end of
the month. We may escape all
those disastrous incidents this
year, but the fact that our cane
fields have been inundated by
of rain and considera-
BILE of the heavy cane blown down
places the crop in a perilous
position when we consider the
present late date in the season.

Screen" Has Aryan Root.

Owing to its derivation the word
green" was originally applied t. the
color OF vegetation, but Tot to the
color of the sea. No application Of
green" to the color Of the sea is
quoted before Chaucer. but as early as
the year 700 it was used for vegeta-
ton. The word is akin to grass" and
grow" which verb originally belong
ed to the vegetable world alone; veg
etables grew" but animals "waxed."
Green comes from an Aryan root.
"ghahr." meaning to be green or yell
low, and yellow gold" and 'yolk'
come from that same root.

China Feared Dragons in Poultry

China Feared Dragons il Poultry.
A superstition of China is thus de-
scribed by a traveller: For a long
series Of marches going through this
country we could get no fowls, a great
~privation in this part Of China where
no meat is obtainable. We were told
that some time before a fowl had
scratched a man and he had died from
the effects. A story got about that a
dragon had got into the poultry and
they were liable to cause death to
their owners. Throughout ali the
neighbOring districts al the poultry
were slaughtered as the story spread
and we had to pay fabulous sums when
we came across any,"

A USEFUL OBJECT LESSON

81 OS6 ~ O0oSSb sASSOAN
It is always possible to draw
q salutary lesson from every
form of human experience, and
it is always of advantage to do so.
A case in point that is of
particular interest to the people
of Lafayette, is furnished by the
quarantine which was enforced
by the parish against the town
during a period of six weeks.
The cessation of regular inter-
course and communication be-
tween the town and parish, even
for so short a time, demonstrated
in q practical and forceful way
the absolute interdependence of
the two communities technically
separated by a political division
for the convenience of govern
ment.
The residents Of the parish
and the residents Of the town
were made to realize keenly the
great need they had for each
other socially and commercially,
and the lesson learned at such
heavy cost should be turned to
good account by a stronger
determination than ever on the
part of the people Of the town
and Of the parish to work
unitedly and tremendously
under all circumstances, mas
much as they know that what
ever. is for the benefit of one is
bound to be of benefit to the
other also.
It feelings of dissension and
discord be aroused at times by
excesses committed under stress
OF fear or excitement, as may
happen under the influence of
abnormal conditions, we should
be willing to bear and forbear
Tor the conservation of the
public interest remembering
always that time and effort spent
IN quarrel and conflict can only
result in harm, and would be
much better utilized in encourag-
ms and strengthening good feel

Secretary Shaw and Senator
Hansbrough have been carrying
on a lively correspondence re-
garding the Secretary's recent
order allowing millers to import
Canadian wheat, mix it with
American wheat, grind the mix
ture into -four and secure re-
bate on the tariff on such por-
tons of the foreign wheat as
they choose to allege is contain
ed in the exported article. From
the correspondence, taken in con-
nection with the testimony of
railroad men given before the
Senate committee on interstate
commerce, we learn some inter
esting facts (?) Mr.. Shaw says
the millers make only 5 cents a
barrel on flour. The railway
men say the railways lose money
on long hauls. If these state
ments, be true no one profits
materially by the importation of
wheat because the profits is not
enough to repay the millers and
the railroads are out of pocket
hauling the -four to the seaboard.
The only person who can profit
is the Canadian farmer, who Sc
cures an increased demand for
his wheat, and the foreign con
sumner whom the philanthropic
millers and railways supply at a
loss. Obviously Secretary Shaw
and his railroad friends will
have to tell us a more credible
tale if they want us to believe
their statements.

The treasury, deficit, which
Secretary Shaw said would
amount to $4,000, 1000, now
amounts to $30,0o0,000 but the
cheerful Secretary assures us
that $50, 100000 is no more to
the United States than 81 is to a
single citizen. Nevertheless, the
Secretary thinks it would be
well to tax tea and coffee to
make up that deficit. The taxes
must amount to 40 for every man
woman and child to make that
deficit good.
