BOX and Crate Factory.

Ii is well known that the Nlnn
Parish Fruit and Truck Growers
Association has been IN active
organization for some time. Inc
attention of the hill parishes, aud
particularly of VIM, is being
turned to the growing of all
kinds of garden truck and fruit
for utlIlz9tion in canning factories
and for preserves. The main
aim of those who raise such
products. both for creating q
demand and to supply the local
markets with canned goods. arc
facilities to make this new de-
parture in farming operation sue
cessfull aud profitable.
Secretary Bentley of the Winn-
field Progressive League, has
received letter from Secretary
Whitley of the Winn Parish Fruit
and Truck Growers Association,
with headquarters at Dodson.
with reference To the erection OF
"A box and crate factory. Such
an industry at Winfield would
prove a paying Investment and
create wide field of usefulness
and patronage on account of the
railroads centerIng at this point,
thus affording transportation
facilities to almost any point
where truck cultivation lsadopted.
Negotiations are pending with
parties in Texas relative to the
construction of such a factory in
WinnlieId. There is abundant
material in close proximity to this
town to give almost an mex
haustible supply of excellent
timber for this purpose.
There is no logical reason why
Winfield should not add this
factory to its other live industries
proper effort will secure it.
Its output would draw the patron
age of every contiguous canning
factory as well as stimulate the
construction of additional plants
of the same kind. Thus it would
become a paying investment from
its very inception.

that a canning factory in

prove eminently successful and

THE MARKS BILL.

There has been SO much said
and some publications in regard
to this act OF the last general
assembly. we thought ii would
be interesting reading for ouI
subscribers, SO that they can in
terpret the act themselves.
The State Board of Education
is composed of the Governor,
Lieutenant Governor, Attorney
General. Superintendent OF Public
Education, and a member from
each congressional district, max
ing seven i'm all; in this district we
have Hon. ID. c. Scarborough, OF
Natchitoches,
Section s of this act says that
the Superintendent shall be
elected by the Parish School
Boards, but that he must be
qualified and before such election.
he must have a certificate from
the State Board of Education of
his eligibility. He must be man
of high moral character, and a
practical educator. Does anyone
want a superintendent that does
not have these qualifications
We feel sure that our School
Board has not nor would they
elect anyone who did not have
these qualifications, and feeling
as we do, we are equally satisfied
that there is not a member of the
State Board of Education who
would wish to thwart the action of
the School Board of any parish in
the state.
The Superintendent is elected
for four years. Mr.. Moss term
expired July Ist and it became
necessary to elect a new Superin-
tendent, not to fill an unexpired
term, but for an original term.
The Superintendent is subject to
removal for the causes mentioned
in the act. Now as to the
of the teachers.
There has been no change in the
act which was act 2I4 OF
1902. The School Board selects
two persons to assist the Super n
tendent in the examinations of
teachers, as all teachers have to
have certificates, then it becomes
necessary for the Superintendent
to name what teachers are quail
fed so that the School Board may
elect those who are competent.
Does any one want a teacher not
qualihedY We feel sure they do
not. We are certain that when
the public read this act they will
find that there is not any bug
under the chip.

A Successful Crop.

Last Saturday Mr.. M. A..
Banks, who resides about two
miles from Winfield, brought to
this Office, some fine specimens
of Irish potatoes of the Triumph
variety. They had been dug some
weeks, but were still sound and
fresh. He raised about IS BUSH
els on an acre of land and finds
ready sale for the output. He
intends TO plant a second crop
on the land in August.
Mr.. Banks has also cultivated
some grapes, specimens of two
vrrieties of which indicate the
adaptability Of the hill lands for
the successful cultivation of this
fruit.

LEGISLATIVE WORK.

The session of fine Legislature
has adjourned. 1t has been char
acterized with strenuous appli-
cation to business that has been
an unusual departure to the ordi-
nary methods of this body. This
demonstrates the power of public
opinion, not less than the consul
nation of the pledges exacted
from the members of that body.
When the smoke of the heated
contests has cleared away, over
enactments that have passed into
laws, a careful review and consid-
Grafton of their application to the
public veal, will demonstrate
their wisdom or its lack. That
there have been errors of Judg-
ment in some instances must be
conceded. 1t is human to err.
That the session will be produc-
tive of benefit to the public wei
fare is generally conceded.
Now that the session has come
and gone it will become the pro.
vine of the press. ia calm and
dispassionate manner, to review
the results achieved and analyze
each enactment in its relations
and bearings on the public pros
perity and tightening the burdens
of government on the individual
taxpayers.

interests on the attention and wise
consideration of the Lawmakers
render il difficult task 10 meet

pressive to the minority.
As a rule, men. individually. or
as an organized community of
acquets and gains, are largely
swayed by spirit of selhshness
and few are there who will relin-
quish their personal aims for the
benefit of the general public.
Hence laws that may affect some
special interest is combatted with
every force that can be broght to
bear to defeat its enactment.
1t is this spirit of self in oppo-
sition to the general welfare that
is the source of most of the evils
from which the masses suffer.
When standard is adopted that
