Should Raise Feed.

The Lake Charles Press published in
a recent issue an interesting interview
with j. A. Caruthers: a successful far
mcr Of Calcasieu parish, wherein Mr..
Caruthers, whose opinions are gathered
from practical experience and are
therefore exceptionally valuable, points
out the necessity for the planters Of
Louisiana to diversity their crops and
raise their own feed and produce.
Suppose a farmer has to spend
$1,000 for feed," says Mr.. Caruthers,
there goes the profit on a hundred
acres Of rice.
Il have this year 100 acres in rice,
twenty-five acres in corr and five in
potatoes and truck crops. My crops
are laid by, the rice lands leveIed and
the orn fields pretty clean. The TX
pense so far has been $5l6.
Il raised $50 bushels of corn on my
land last year, and | can tell you that
is what has aided me this season, when
feed stutfs are soaring.
81 will certainly make 500 bushels of
corr this year if conditions continue as
they are, the crop will be anywhere
from $50 to 1900 bushels.
my rice lands will give me sixteen
or seventeen sacks to the acre,
but being very conservative and plac-
ing the average at ten. this will give
me a total Of 1000 sacks. That is ex-
tremely conservative, for | feel conf
dent from what | know about the lands
and the present stand, the average will
be much greater. But even at that
figure, with rice at So per sack, it can
be readily seen what the profit will be
through having provided my own feed.
= "We don't only raise rice. We raise
hogs, cattle and chickens, and it is our
effort to have as little waste as posi-
bic.
when | first came to this section
about Is years ago put all my land in
one crop. But l have learned better,
and now know that the farmer can
make more by raising general crops,
and particularly growing their own
feed.
The farmers will realize this soon,
and the sooner they do the better it
will be for them and the country ~
| Donaldsonville Chief.
1t all depends on the point of view.
The fly has a thousand eyes, scientists
tell us-and yet he can't see why hu-
man beings should be so determined to
exterminate him.

Republicans Will Ask For
Referendum on The
Election Law

Guthrie. Okla, March 19.-Will Chap
pie. a Republican attorney, prominent
in political legalities. has announced
that he has completed the forms for
petitions for a referendum against the
general election law by Taylor and Bill
lups. Chapple would make no state
ment as to whether the Republican
state committee is behind the move
ment for the referendum on the cleo
ton bill or whether It is an individual
affair, but the statement was made by
others that the step was sanctioned
and advised by Bird Mcclure.
chapple. who was the attorney for
the Republican state central commit
tee in the several contest suits brought
in the legislature, says that it viii take
5 per cent Of the total highest vote
cast at the last general election for 3
state officer TO get a referendum cleo
ton on the election bill This means
that the petition must contain approx
imately $4,000 signatures.
The Republicans would also include
in the referendum the bill by Franklin
TAYLOR and Billups which gives the
governor a discretionary power to cal
special elections on all initiative Of
referendum matters or to have suet
elections held at the next general elec
ton. This bill, however. became Law
on approval and 1t is very question
able whether the referendum could b'
demanded on It.
The chief objection the Republican,
seem to have TO the election bill il
that It was framed by Democrats an,
demands that the voter possess a
least education to read the favorit'
candidates names.

a Fair Deal For
Oklahoma

Washington, d. c., March l9.-Rep-
resentatiye Scott Ferris. backed up BY
Charles Carter and the Oklahoma sena-
tors, have taken up with the Interstate
Commerce Commission the PROPOSE
ton of the alleged determinations
against wholesalers and manufacturers
OF the new state as compared with
Mississippi river points.
The case in point comes up from
Oklahoma City, but is applicable to
the entire state in its benefits If the
railroads can be brought to time. The
Oklahoma Furniture Manufacturing
company at Oklahoma City employs
about seyenty-six men. and the state
ment is made by the manager Of this
concern that If the new state was not
Disseminated against that 1t could dou-
BILE its business and the number Of
men employed. That the beneficial re-
suits would apply in the same way to
every manufacturing concern in the
state that is heavy shipper and
wholesaler.
Iron beds is one OF the articles in
which this company conducts an ex
tensiee business. The freight rate
from the point where the bedsteads are
manufactured to Kansas City is q
cents. with a car minimum of 5000
pounds. That rate on the same ma
terial to Oklahoma is 6s cents and the
cars must run 10000 pounds This dis
eliminating rate Of course cripples tn,
wholesalers of the new state and pre-
vents them expanding their business
as they otherwise would.

ment concerning its Importance to th'
state. and will follow this up with
vigorous demand that action be taken

trldges each, and when arrested told
the officers they were going to the
osage country to hunt opossums.
The boys have told several stories
since their arrest. no two OF which
corroborate They told their 10Y
friends in Tulsa yesterday that they
had purchased two horses and were
going to ride them to New Mexico. Il
Is the supposition that the youthful
miscreants were inspired by dime nov
els and the escapade Of Hershal Wolf
and Charles Hobaugh. who held up
and robbed twenty-five men east Of
Tulsa on New Years eve. The lads
intended to pull off some kind of a
hold-up stunt, secure some money and
other valuables and leave the country
with the horses they had hired last
evening from the Hicock barn.
On the way from the scene Of the
arrest young Knorr tried to attacl
Chief Thompson with a bowie knife

grabbed him by the nape Of the necl
