In discussing the prohibition ques-
ton in the August McClure's, prof.
Hugo Mnnsterberg says:
1T has beer seldom indeed that the
fundamental evil of American public
opinion has come out SO clearly;
namely, that no one dares to be on the
unpopular side; just as in fashion and
social life, every one wants to be in
it, No problem has in America
fair he airing as soon as one side has
become the fashion of mind. Only the
cranks come out with an unbalanced,
exaggerated opposition, and thus real
ly help the cause they want to fight
against. The well-balanced thinkers
keep quiet and simply look on while
the movement rushes forward, waiting
quietly for the reaction which sets in
from the inner absurdity of every
social extreme. The result is too
often an historical zig-zag movement,
where fearlessnes might have found a
middle way of steady progress. There
must be, indeed, possible middle
way between the evil of the present
saloon and the not lesser evil of a
future national prohibition; yet, if
this one-sidedness of discussion goes
on, it is not difficult to foresee, after
the legislative experiences of the last
year, that the hysterical movement
will not stop until prohibition is pro-
claimed from every statehouse between
the Atlantic and the Pacific"

Big Drainage Ditch Opened.

One of the largest drainage enter
prises that has been undertaken in
this section of the parish recently was
completed few days since, when the
Stark Drainage company completed
FIVE miles of ditching for the farmers
in the Hamnil neighborhood. This
ditch, which is six feet deep and three
feet wide drains about three thousand
acres into the bayou Serpent. Mr..
Hammil said that the morning follow
ing the heavy rains the first of the
week the water had practically drained
from even his lowest fields, and that
in two days he could pillow where
ordinarily it took two or three weeks
for the water to get away. This
ditch costs a dollar per rod and
probably adds ten dollars an acre to
the value of land that it effects.

[ must write my sincere regrets at
not being able to meet you personally.
Please consider this my appreciation
for private membership of your timely
association, in the interest of modern
rice growing and marketing for the
state of Louisiana.
IA three fold cord is not easily
broken" Individual effort is indeed
very powerful, and when supported by
such an association as you represent
is almost Omnipotent and [ must
congratulate you upon your fore
sight and action thus far.
You are the originators of modern
methods and machinery in the oldest
and greatest of all cereals-Rice.
The individual who put the first
Irvine binder in a rice field. is your
neighbor, and will doubtless be a
member of your association: marion
Bryan"
Twenty-Five years covers the history
from the beginning till 1908; from
nothing in 1884 to an annual crop of
twenty millions of dollars-soon to be
measured by hundreds of millions
yearly. If the United States should,
as they ought to, use rice as the orr
entails do, that use would require at
least, twenty-five times our present
crop. SO you have a very large field
for operation, and in every way
worthy your best and supreme efforts.
In union there is strength, and unit.
