The airship rises to the altitude of
the mountain top in few minutes.
Looking well into the future, Rud-
yard Kipling has described the nos
pital airships with their decks crowd
ed with tuberculosis patients gain

The experience Of Mr., A. Leo
Stevens during many flights is case
in point. "As one ascends rapidly.
especially on damp, depressing
day." said Mr.. Stevens, ''the relief
to ones lungs is soon noticeable.

LEGISLATIVE GRAFT"
The Game Commission Is Denounced
at the Opelousas Meeting.

Opelousas, La, July 28.-At the open
inging session of the State farmers
meeting here yesterday, Thomas NJ
Lewis, veteran planter, scathingly ar
raigned the State administration and
its law-makers, and called on the farm
ers to do what they could toward up
lifting public sentiment to such level
that it will do away with public men
who do not discharge their trust.
Hardly new State body or Office
escaped Mr.. Lewis direct or indirect
criticism. Those he did not mention
specifically, he evidently meant to hit
just the same.
The Game Commission he called "a
piece of legislative graft" the Civil
Code and Criminal Code commissioners,
useless expense, calling attention to the
discussions at the Louisiana Bar As
sociation Alexandra convention as an
evidence that there was no demand for
any considerable changes in the codes.
OF $40 new Offices made since 1908,
Mr.. Lewis said 100 were created by
the last Legislature and but So of them
were elective.
The fees paid Messrs. Gilmore and
Parkerson for the port probe at New
Orleans was also criticised as excessive
and unnecessary, and the net result
pointed out as sonleting either Senator
Barret or Senator Cordill might Just
as well have done without extra ex-
pense to the State.
The convention was called to order
by local President Lee Mills. Mayor
NJ. HAPPENS address Of welcome was
responded to by the secretary Of the
State Union, ]. N. DeLoach. An ad-
dress Of welcome on behalf of the local
branch was made by Mr. ]. NJ. Davis
Of Acadia parish Sheriff Swords also
made short address.
AS the venerable Thomas H. Lewis
arose for his expected excoration oi
the political trend of the times, he was
greeted with roar of applause, and
then in moment dead silence. Re
viewing the relation Of national taxa
ton to the necessities of the Fedora
government and the relative tax-payine
power of the agricultural classes.

THE STATE FAIR
FARMERS SHOULD GET READY
FOR PREMIUMS
$500 FOR CORN EXHIBITS
A Great Incentive for Competition.
The Farmers of Caddo Are Expected
TO Be Active-Lay Aside the Best of
the Crop for Exhibition.

The Fourth Annual Fair of the StaIe
Fair of, Louisiana will be held in
Shreveport, November I to 6, 1909.
The management of the Fair are max
ing extensive preparations for big
Fair this fall. They are particularly
anxious to have large exhibit of all
kinds of agricultural products and live
stock.
Their catalogue and premium list is
now ready for distribution, and all who
intend to make an exhibit at the Fair
and who have not secured copy can
securt one by writing to the secre-
tary at Shreveport
In making up the premium list in the
agricultural department nothing has
been omitted in the way of products
grown throughout the State, and liberal
cash premiums are offered on this end
less variety of products
Now is the time for every farmer to
look out for the best of his crop and
lay it aside sa it can be exhibited at the
Fair, especially when the corn is gath
,ered. Something like $500 is offered
on corn alone, and it costs nothing to
make an entry Ten ears are all that
are required.
Especially are the farmers of Caddo
parish urged to make an exhibit. It is
the volume that is desired, and if every
farmer will exhibit just few agricul-
tural products, the general exhibit rep
resenting Caddo parish will be a credit
to all interested.
The Police Jury has given $500 for
Caddo farmers alone, and in addition
to that each farmer is allowed to COM
pete in the general classts.
The secretary, Mr.. Brueggerhoff, is
very anxious to have good display Of
Caddo parish products and little. .help
on the part Of the farmers will bring
the desired results If you do not know
how to make your entry with Mr.
Brueggerhoff, he will gladly tell you
what to do Write for a catalogue to-
day and help make the Fair a success.

There are all kinds of Printing: The

which is good.
It is just as easy to have Good Print

all depends on the printer and the print
ing and the stock used in the printing.
We have the printers and the press
men, the best in their line, and we have
the stock and do only Good Printing.
Besides Good Printing, the Price is
an all important consideration. We are
not operating cheap printery, but viii

Do not forget there is difference be-

]. E. DEFEBAUGh
dies IN CHICAGO
Was One of Country's Most Potent
Influences in Lumber Industry,
and WeIl.Known Here.

Everett M. Brown, Secretary of the
Mississippi Pine Association, re-
ceived telegram yesterday announc-
ing the death in Chicago at 4:10
o'clock yesterday morning of ]. E.
Defebaugh, one of the best known
lumber men in the country. For fiji
teen years Mr.. Defebaugh had been
one of the most potent individual in
fluences in the country in the lumber
industry. s'@it ST.
Born in Williamsburg, Pa, March
%, 1854, he learned the printers
trade in his native city, he went to
Chicago in 1877, where he took up
the work of journal correspondent
and in 1885 established the Timber
man. This paper was consolidated in
1899 with the Northwestern Lumber
man, with Mr.. Defebaugh as editor,
and W. B. Judson business manager.
Three years ago, Mr.. Defebaugh be-
came the sole owner of this great
lumber journal, and despite i'll health
volunteered in the lumbermens fight
for an adequate duty on lumber do
ing much effective work and sparing
neither himself nor his means.
An operation performed in August
disclosed the fact that he was suffer-
ing from a malignant cancer, and
this was the eventual cause of his
death.
Mr.. Defebaugh was activ in church
and charitable work. He leaves a
wife and one son, Carl w. Defe-
baugh.

OFFERED MILLION
TO STOP PROBE
Electrical Trust Offered to "Contri-
butte" That Amount to RepubIi-
can Campaign Fund.
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Nov. 22.-It is shown
by the Department of Justice rec
ords affecting the so-called electrical
trust that the government in July,
1908, was offered a million dollar
bride to cease further investigation of
the General Electric Company and
the Westinghouse Company in partic-
ular, and of the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company incidentally.
The bribery attempt was made in
this form: First, if the trust bust
ing" investigation of the electrical in
terest of the country were stopped
81 100000 would be contributed to
the Republican national campaign
fund, and in addition Taft's candidacy
would be given the earnest and
hearty support of the vast industrial
interest, with it's powerful ramifica-
tions into commercial and electric
railway circles.
Second, it was suggested that if the
government did not comply with the
terms of this generous offer, made in
the spirit of party loyalty, it might
be necessary for the electric inter.
ests, purely in self-defense, to sup.
port Bryan's candidacy, thus through
money and sympathy attempting to
take from the Republican presiden,
tial ticket the electoral vote of a
number of States necessary to insure
ats election.
In plain black and white are shown
explicitly the offer, which was Off
cially rejected and afterward de
nounced by President Roosevelt. The
rejection and denunciation are also
shown in the files.

(By Associated Press)

NV York, Nov. 22.-Proposing to
save the people of this country at
least $1OO00,OOO each year, plans for
National Audubon University to be
endowed with one million dollars were
announced in this city today. Based
upon the known annual crop loss of
one billion dollars due to the spread
ing pests that the insect eating birds
destroy the calculations of the Ma
tional Association of Audubon Socie-
ties, which is putting forth this pro-
ject, show that the teaching of bird
value from such an institution must
result in wiping out at least one per
cent of the huge national penalty for
popular lack of knowledge on this
subject. When one million dollars
can be raised for the new university,
it is proposed to at once start it's
work, which promises to eventually
contribute hundreds of millions to
American prosperity.
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1909-11-22
HAVE new PLAN To TEACH
THE SAVING Of CROP LOSS

birds upon agriculture in every Sec
ton will be presented to the workers
on the six million farms of the coun-
try. Each phase of the science of
economic ornithology will be studied
at this unique seat of Tearing and
presented to the people whose ma
terisl gain is today seriously ham,
pered by lack of light on the sub
ject.
Reports from every State and
county in the land have convinced the
officers of the National Association
of Audubon Societies that all the
American people are now ready and
eager to learn to guard against the
money loss that surely follows the
destruction of the country's feath-
cred resources. Only the wide pres
entation of the facts and figures of
economic bird value can ever check
the alarming spread of crop plaques
over the continent, the ornitholo-
gists and agricultural authorities de-
clare. To tell this saving story to
ali the adults and particularly to the
children of America is believed to be
the only emergency that can now
avail to preserve the agricultural and
general wealth of the country.
