Lord Northcliffe's Enterprise.

New Orleans States.
Because the forests Of Europe are
practically denuded, British newspaper
publishers are faced with the neces
sity of doing everything possible to
conserve the supply Of available ma
terial for print paper. The same con-
dition will soon confront the American
publishers unless some satisfactory
substitute for wood pulp is discovered,
but SO far such discovery has not
been made, though the work of expert
mentation with the fiber of cotton
stalks and other substances is still
going on.
Realizing the fact that wood pulp
is needed and that the supply is con-
stantly growing less, Lord Northcliffe
the owner of the London Times, has
purchased more than two thousand
square miles of forest land in New
Foundland, where he has built the
largest paper mills in the world for
the purpose fsupplying his own pub
lications with white paper. He owns
many newspapers and magazines
which each year consume thousands
of tons of paper hence rather than
depend on the market for an uncer
tain supply he has invested more than
| $6,0OO,0 600 in a battery of mills which
manufacture print paper solely for
his own use.
It is said that his New Foundland
| mills are the best equipped in the
world; that they have the most i'm
proved machinery; the facilities for
the transportation of their products
are perfect, and around the mills a
town has been built for the conven-
ience of the operatives. So far as the
future is concerned Lord Northcliffe
has provided for himself and his
publications, but there are not many
| publishers SO fortunate as to be able
to invest 100000 in mills merely to
supply their own needs Therefore IT
is to be hoped that substitute for
wood pulp in the manufacture Of print
paper may soon be discovered, be.
cause in a very short time the prob.
lem Of sufhcient supply win become
a serious one.

Model Asphalt Road.

The model road consisting OF the
block on Johnston street extending
from Institute road to Oak avenue.
has been treated with asphalt road
oil under the supervision Of Mr.. Will
son of the Standard Oil Co, manufac-
turers of the asphalt oil, after being
prepared for the reception of the oil
according to his directions, and is
now in process of drying and harden
ing. No traffic is being allowed over
the road until the oil has been COM
pletely absorbed and assimilated.
The claim is made that this method
of making roads is highly satisfactory
and has proven a solution to the dust
problem while providing firm and
very durable road that costs compare
lively little fer maintenance once it
is properly built and oiled. The eX-
pertinent being made on Johnston
street is to demons trate to the PEG
pie of this city and parish either that
the asphalt oiled road is or is not
what is claimed for it. If the model
road proves that asphalt Oil can be
used here with satisfactory results it
will solve in a measure the problem,
of good roads at reasonable cost.
If it does not. then it is good to have
made the experiment and satisfief
ourselves as to that particular kind
road SO that we can go ahead and fiji :
something else.

ST. MARTIN CANAL.
From Bayou Vermiion to AtchafaIaya
Predicted Will Be Main Inter
coastal Canal.

During the meeting of the Inter
coastal Canal convention held in Cor
pus Christi, Texas, last week, the
Corpus Christi Herald in its report
of the meeting made the following
mention of the canal which is being
dug by the parish Of ST. Martin and
town of ST. Martinville. The predic-
ton made by the Herald that the
canal will eventually become part
Of the main intercoastal canal has
some reason perhaps. ana 1t may be
that st. Martinville's enterprise will
be rewarded by placing her on the
main route of the Intercoastal Canai,
much to the great and growing benefit
of the town. The Herald says:
state Senator T. j. Liable from st.
Martinville, La, represents a parish
in Louisiana that is acting independ-
emily of government aid in digging a
branch of the Intercoastal Canal. This
branch, it is expected, will eventually
be the main canal, offering better
and shorter route to New Orleans and
the Mississippi river. The proposed
canal will start from Bayou Vermil-
ion, which is a part of the govern
ment project, and will cross Bayou
Teche at St. Martinviiie, thence to
the chain of lakes that are connected
to the Atchafalaya river. The town
of ST. Martinville and the parish OF
st. Martin have voted five special
taxes for the project and the dredges
have already begun operations. Be-
sides giving shorter route, this canal
trayerses the fertile cane lands of
Bayou Teche and will be used for
transportation of cane to the mills
and for the irrigation of rice farms -

The Procress of Our indians.

New Orleans States.
Many of us. no doubt, have enter
tanned the popular idea that the
American Indians were dying out SO
rapidly that they would soon be
vanished race. but the official figures
in Washington show that this opinion
is erroneous. It is not pretended thai
the Indians are increasing at rapid
rate, but at the present time there
are more than 100000 of them in the
United States and there has been an
increase in their number of about
10000 in the last twenty years.
1t is the accepted belief in Wash
ingtOn that the increase in Indian
population is due to the efforts of
the government to uplift the red man
ard educate and help bin out Of fRr-
barism. The government is now
spending more than $3,O00,Go0 an
nually in the education of 10000 In
dian boys and girls. ard those officials
whose duties bring them in close
touch with the Indians are convinced
that the race is progressing so rapidly
that in the course of time the gov
ment will abandon its guardianship,
because the Indian viii be able to
take care of himself
1t has often been charged that the
results did not justify the govern
ment's expenditure for the mainte-
nance of indian schools, and that af-
ter graduation many of the students
returned to their respective tribes on
ly to lapse into barbarism as result
of the championship and the .inf1u-
enceof the customs of their people.
There have been some cases of this
kind, no doubt, but the government
records show that the majority of the
students become educated and civil
lied to a point that makes them self
sustaining and useful citizerA hence
the Indian schools have justified the
support and care the government has
given them.

MOTH PARASITES IMPORTED
Infested Caterpilars From Europe
Come to Fight Gypsey Moth

An interesting consignment of about
1000 parasite bearing caterpillars ar
rived at New York recently. They
are consigned to DR.. l.. o. Howard,
chief entomologist of the Agricultural
department who returned from abroad
a short time ago.
While abroad DR.. Howard gave
some time studying the determination
of the gypsy, or browntail moth,
which has caused serious ravages
here and especially in the New Eng
land states. He found there are 81
varieties Of the moth killing parasites
in England, Germany and Austria but
how to get the parasite to this coun-
try was another question. 1t was de-
cided that the only way to import
them was to bring in the parasite in
tested caterpillars and so the impor-
tation of them has begun. Since May
they nave been arriving at the rate
of about 1000 a day.
There were ten cases in n recent
shipment that came on the steamship
New York. They were kept in a
steerage compartment forward. In
some way a case broke when the con-
signment was being taken on board
at Southampton and the caterpillars
it is said, set out to explore the vessel
soon after she got under way. They
managed to get to nearly every part
of the vessel and it was noticed that
they always travelled down wind. The
remaining cases were carried to a
steerage compartment in the stern Of
the New York, so that If any more
caterpillars escaped they would work
down wind and over the stern.
