The Frost Thursday.

Thursday light frost visited this
parish. In reponse to question as
to whether the frost had injured his
garden, an experienced gardener
stated that so far he had not discOv-
cred any damage, that he had some
tomatoes, which are very sensitive to
frost, but they were in fine shape.
Being asked as to the probable effect
on cotton-he has nice little patch
of it-he said it helped the cotton by
ripening the top bolls, and would
help to make the top crop. He added
that considerably more cotton would
be made in the parish than great
many thought. Let us hope he is
right.

Protection for the Retail Grocer.

The following special to the Times
Democrat speaks for itself:
New Iberia, Oct. IA special meet
ing of the Retail Grocers' Association
has been called for next Thursday
night for the purpose of comforting
with the wholesalers in regard to the
wholesalers selling direct to the con-
sumer-in other words. doing a retail
business in competition with their GUS
toners, the retailers.
Should they fail to agree on the
matter it is stated by the retailers that
they will organize a joint stock com
pany among themselves and establish
their own wholesale store in direct
competition with the wholesalers. The
matter is creating widespread interest
among the grOcerymen. The matter
was to have been settled last night.
but failed, owing to the wholesalers
failing to appear for joint conference.
1t is manifestly unfair and unjust to
the retail merchant for the wholesale
dealer to accept and fill orders from
their customers it is like taking the
bread out of the mouth of the retail
merchant upon whom the wholesale
business depends for its support.
The retail grocery men of Lafayette
The Lafayette advertiser. [volume] (Vermilionville [i.e. Lafayette], La.) 1865-19??, 1906-10-17

are more fortunate in this regard than
their business colleagues in New Ibe-
ria and other places where the local
wholesale concerns make regular
practice of supplying the consumers
as well as the dealers in the cOmmu-
nity. The Merchants Grocer Com
pany of Lafayette advertise the fact
that they sell at trhOlesale strictly,
which very properly eliminates the
consumer. and the protection they give
the retail merchant in this way is in
striking contrast with a number of
New Orleans wholesale firms doing
business with our local merchants and
filling orders for families in Lafayette
at the same time. 1t would be to the
interest of Lafayette merchants to
withdraw their support from wholesale
business concerns which are Competing
with them in selling supplies to their
own retail customers.
The Merchants Grocer Company is
a home concern in every way deserv-
ing of the patronage of the retail mer-
chants of Lafayette, and we are glad
to note the success which has been at
tending the business of this concern
year by year.

will have been added to the area of
ullable land in the county in the next
three years if the irrigation projects
now under construction are carried to
successful completion. This land will
be worth 500 to $500 per acre and
tire possibilities Of increased values
may thus be forecasted.
Not only will the new land add to
the value Of property in the county,
but the land already under cultivation
is becoming more and more valuable
each year through improved farming
methods, new crops diversified farm
ing, extension of irrigation systems
and by various agencies which are at
work for the best in the county.
It is certain that lower taxes will
follow the rapid increase in the value
of property in the county as it will
require but little extra expense to con-
duct the county government with the
new settlements added.

men might not be hindered in their
labor, neither has it rained during
harvest in this county, to hinder the
harvester from reaping continuously
while the golden grain was ripe and
awaiting the coming of the sickle.
No heavy dew falls in this county
either, which makes it possible to
begin cutting grain early in the morn
ing without the hindrance which is
experienced from the dew fall in many
wheatgrowing sections.

different wheatgrowing sections of the
world begin to harvest their crops.
