IS OPTIMISTIC.
ne Doesn't Believe in Free Advisers, And
wants to Feed the Ball ReeVlIs.
Cowtoes, La. March 15.

Dear Mr.. Editor.-Howdye, this
mornin'? | just thought I'd let you
know how your friend Clodhopper was
getin' along these days, as you always
want news from the country.
WAL, as you knows, / live on the
Cowtoes, jest bout one or two miles
east Of the city. WAL, / am glad to
let you know ! am through planting
corn, and it is coming up fine. My
Irish Eaters are also up and doing
fine. Ny cane is up, too, but needs
some peart working, as rains have
prevented doing so till now. / will
have garlic enough to poison the
country, while onions-why. they are
jest CROWN by themselves. Then,
besides, Ihave sweet taters, Lespedeza
grass, pea vines, Watermelons, and
many other things that grow IN the
ground.
But, Mr.. Editor, my mind is trou-
1led bout the way things are. i read
q your paper, for instance, bout all
hose people who 50 willingly give all
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1909-03-20

this free adyiee-what to plant and
when to plant. Those people, ! sup
pose, have fortunes enough from till
ing the soil to divide their knowledge
with their poor country friends, to
plant as they did.
I see that we are promised that al
our Irish Eaters will be bought and
paid the market price. Now, who i
going to regulate the price? Do you
think that the clodhoppers will Be
consulted On this point? Ny tatei
seeds has cost me as much as S1.5C
q busheI. Do you think | will gel
half that price?
/ would be pleased for you to let
us know what those refinery men
promises to do for US in the cane line.
For we are led to believe that their
intentions are for US to buy and pay
for everything and they on their
promise are to run it for US at our
expense. II their opinion they think
the proposition fair, as We want the
plant.
By the way, Mr.. Editor, don't for
get to say that / am also planting
COOLERS, Or peanuts as they call them,
because they say they make good
cotton seed oil, and bring more money
than the cotton seed.
WAL, Mr., Editor, you viii have to
excuse me for not saying more for
the present, as I am very busy IN the
field. | viii conclude By asking Of
You a favor to not,give your columns
50 freely to those free advisers as to
what to plant and when to plant. #
they will only give Us a rest so that
We can finish our present crops, We
will promise to listen to them next
year, when we will have more time
to spare to them; and, Of course, re-
tain our opinion in the meantime.
Another thing I want to tell you:
Someone said in your paper that the
boil weevil was a blessing in DISGUISE
that God had sent it here and it
should not be molested. While that
may be true, and taking that into
consideration, | will plant about forty
acres in cotton, one-half Of which will
go for the boil weeviI, which must be
fed, while the other portion Of land
will be billed with posters reading
No trespassing On this patch under
penalty Of the law Of the land
I believe that the rest Of your
readers should follow the advice Of
Yours respectfully,
GLODHOPPER.

ergy, his patriotism and public spirit
his steadfast efforts for the uplifl
and betterment Of his fellow-citizens
and for good government; and the
success he has achieved in these di-
rections Illustrate once more the fact
that Peace hath her victories No
less renowned than War
William G. is a cousin Of the first
two, and when the tocsin Of wal
sounded in 1861 he left with the first
company from Opelousas, the ''0pe-
lousas Guards" for the seat Of war
in Virginia. The company was
promptly incorporated in the 9th Ia.
Infantry, which, together with the
9th and 10th regiments, each Of
which comprised a St. Landry COM
pany, formed the immortal Louisiana
Brigade of the Army Of Northern
| Virginia" This brigrde formed part
Of StonewaII Jackson's corps and was
a leading factor and active partici-
pant in all the wonderful campaigns
and brilliant victories Of that match
less chieftain, whose imperishable
fame will be forever linked with the
heroism and valor Of the peerless
soldiers that he led. n all these
titanic contests the young Opelousas
soldier was aver Charley on the
spot" Repeatedly wounded, he
promptly reioined his comrades as
soon as his wounds were healed,
never coming home but once on fur
Tough in all those four bloody years.
II Lees Incompatible army were
carefully picked over no better, more
active, more steadfast soldier could
be found than William G. Lewis. He
was an ideal soldier-one Of the best
in that immortal host. and he is one
Of the immortals. Good luck to you,
dear old Bill
St. Landry sent to the front many
other equally brave soldiers, some
living, many dead. Should she not
erect q monument to their memory?
Yea, yea, d thousand times yea, and
that promptly.
Speaking Of Thomas r. Lewis calls
to mind the fact that the Confeder-
aeY bequeathed to him a jacket. Of
course it was q gray jacket. It
might have had tails to it in the long
ago, but when if appeared on the
streets Of 0pelousas in the spring
Of 1865, it was simply a very short
jacket with ordinary brass buttons.
Whether he priced It as a relic and
was 10th to part with it because Of
it's association with more strenuous
and more glorious days, Or whether
he found it difficult in his first year
at the bar to make both ends meet
and replenish his wardrobe at the
same time, the fact remains that the
old jacket, brass buttons and all,
adorned his 1.-THE and slender figure
all that spring and summer and even
far into the winter. He may have il
yet. An idea Of how It looked may
be gained BY applying to Leonce San
doz, late editor Of the Courier, who
had his photograph taken with just
such q jacket in 1863 Of 1864. II
saw this picture a few wears ago.

DECLINE IN USE OF MEDICINES,

The press dispatches this week con-
tanned report of an eminent au-
thority stating that in the past fifteen
years the average cost per patient
of medicines used in the hospitals Of
this country has gone down from
s2.90 to 81 cents. thus testifying elo-
quently to the fact that the use of
drugs is growing less and less with
each year, and new methods OF treat
ment are coming into popularity.
The Causes of Disease.
Mechanical disturbances OF the
Architectural perfectness of the
human machine often cause interfer-
ence with the blood stream to and
from various regions of the body
They further cause irritation to nerve
|filaments, criss-crossing in every con-
ceivable manner in the body. This
interference with the blood stream
and the nerve processes causes physi-
illogical inharmony in the tissues and
organs OF the body as a unit, causing
not only organic disturbances, but
taking the life out OF the cells OF us
sues and organs, reducing their re-
sistence power. and we have now a
suitable condition for bacterial infec-
tion.
Here, then, we see the real dis
tinctive difference, held to be the
first cause for diseased conditions be-
tween the osteOpathic and medical
schools. The Osteopath finds the
first cause for disease 20 be mechanic
ally disturbed architectural perfect
ness of the human machine. The
medical practitioner finds the first
cause to be due to chemical altera-
tion OF the cell structure, and treats
from a sympathetic standpoint.

THE HOME BOYS.

The following Is a very truthful
remark: 1.-THE man who grows up in
his native own is regarded as a boy
by his elders until he Is well started
down the declivity of life that ends
in a hole. The stranger who comes
into a place is more often pushed to
the front than the young man who
has grown up with the town. This is
the reason why so many young men
become dissatisfied with their home
surroundings and long to cast their
lot in other quarters, says the Ben
ton Tribune-Democrat.
But one must remember in that he
Is dealing with fundamental things
and the stranger who comes into 9
place TO be pushed to the front"
Is home boy somewhere. That he
gets ahead sometimes Is simply due
TO the fact that some boys, like some
plants. grow more hardy when trans
planted, especially If they happen to
be hot house propogated. II is mis-
take, however, to say the stranger is
pushed to the 'front.', unless one re-
fers to his own push. The home boy
Is too likely to depend on being
pulled 10 the 'front.'
Il Is the instinct of self-preserva-
ton. which makes the transplanted
plant dig deep its roots into the new
SOL. and spread its foliage wide to
catch and absorb the strengthening
rays of the sun, and in so doing ar
range itself in the fashion best
adapted to attract favorable notice
II II proves strong enough to adapt
