Declared Veterinarian White
After Examining Gen.
tpy's Mule.

For several weeks the mules of
Mr.. j. ID. Gentry, whose farm Is
four miles southeast of Winfield,
have been afflicted with something
like glanders, but there was some
doubt as to its being the genuine
disease. One of the mules died
and a quarantine was established
and the other stock on Mr.. Gen
try's place was kept isolated
from other stock.
Last Saturday Parish Attorney
Kidd wired for DIR. M. M. White
of Shreveport, a veterinarian, to
come and examine the disease.
He did so and pronounced it
glanders. The other mule that
had the disease was killed and
burned. Monday. Six other ami
mails that have been with the
afflicted mules are under strict
quarantine. Some of them are in
Winfield, one belonging to Joe
Gangi and the others to Mr..
Crane of the Sulphur Timber &
Lumber Company. The two
mules Mr.. Gentry lost were worth
$500.

NEW FIRE PROOF PAINT.
A Thorough Test Convinces the
Public that it is AbSo-
lutely Fire Proof.

Last Friday and Saturday an
exhibition was given by Mr.. G.
B. Spangler to test The Motifs
Water and Fire Proof Paint.
The test was made on Abel street
in front of the Winn Parish Bank
in the presence of large crowd
of citizens. Mr.. Spangler has a
section of shingle roof about 4 by
D feet square. the shingles nailed
on as is usually done by carpen-
ters on a building. He painted
the shingles with his paint and
then covered 1T with shavings,
which he thoroughly saturated
with coal oil. He then set them
on fire and continued to pour oil
on it until he had used three gal
Ions of coal oil and as soon as he
stopped replenising the, fire with
oil it Immediately ceased to burn.
The test was repeated Friday
with the same results. Everyone
present was thoroughly convinced
that the paint is fire proof, SO.
much so that Mr.. Spangler has
contracts for painting number
of the business houses in the
town.
The paint is not only fire proof
but will stop leaks in paper or
metal roofs. Mr.. Spangler has
associated with him Mr.. Cyrus
Jones of Dodson and has named
his company The Protective Paint
Company of Winfield. These
gentlemen have bought the exclu-
sive right to manufacture and sell
their paints in the state of Louis
lana. They propose to COM
mence the manufacture of the
paint here in Winfield as soon
as they can secure the materials,
which have been ordered and are
on the way. They guarantee
their work for five years. For
any information write or call on
them at Winfield, La.

will have to be borne by the
abutting property holders, under
the supervision of the town. l
therefore recommend that ordi-
nances to carry into effect these
recommendations be adopted.
4. The ordinance providing
for fire district and prescribing
the limits should be repealed and
a new ordinance adopted that
viii be more comprehensive and
then be enforced.
5. / wish to call the attention
of your honorable board to the
fact that there has been a num-
ber of ordinances passed by the
board of aldermen of the town
that have not been recorded in
the ordinance book. You can
readily see that 1T is impossible
for the officers whose duty it Is to
carry out the provisions of the
ordinances to do their duty when
they have no way of ascertaining
what the provisions of the ordi-
nances are, some of which were
adopted several years ago.
therefore recommend that
some steps be taken to have these
ordinances properly recorded and
all of them properly lndexed.
Respectfully submitted,
G.. M. BEvILL,
Mayor.
The mayor to whom was re-
ferred the matter of securing
from Mr.. G. III. Elliott the ground
across his lot for the extension of
Front street, reported that he had
seen Mr.. Elliott and that Mr..
Elliott was present and would
submit a proposition to the board.
Mr.. G.. III. Elliott then addressed
the Board and made the PROPOSE
tion that if the board would pay
him the sum of one hundred dol
lars and give him and the Dalton
Clark Stave Company the right
to lay a track across the street on
this property that he would make
the town a deed to fifty feet, that
being the width of Front street,
to the town for the extension of
Front street.
On motion Mr.. Abel the follow
ing resolution was adopted: Re-
solved that the mayor and board
of Aldermen accept the PROPOSE
ton of Mr.. C. I'll. Elliott to make
deed to the town of Winfield
for so feet of ground for the ex-
tension of Front street and that
the sum of one hundred dollars
be appropriated out of any funds
IN the treasury not otherwise ap-
propriated to pay for the same.
and that the city attorney be au :
thorlzed to prepare the deed and
attend to the extension of the
same.
The resolution was adopted by
the following vote: Ayes,
Messrs. Abel, Cooper, Fletcher,
Leeper and Watts. Five ayes, no
nays. Carried.
