The Rice belt journal. (Welsh, Calcasieu Parish, La.) 1900-19??, 1909-12-31

Among the many suggestions Of
fered to congress in the presidents
recent message is one that carries the
suggestion of d higher rate of postage
upon magazines and newspapers.
While admitting the educational
value of the matter in question the
president is of the opinion that this
class of mail matter should be held
accountable for the entire difficulty.
While there is, of course no question
but that the second class mail, Of
which papers and magazines cOnsti-
tute the largest part is being carried
at less cost than the actual cost of
transportation, yet this is not the
only department of the postal system
that is being operated at loss. 1t
is we'll kown fact that every depart
ment of the government has its mail
franked without its being charged off
to the department that is benefited,
thereby large expense is charged
up again at the postoffce that of
rights has lis origin in other depart
ments of the government. This line
of reasoning is on a par with the
merchant who has department store,
and charges all the advertising ex
penses of the whole establishment to
some one department and then de-
Glars that, that department does not
pay as it shows Il deficit.

FEED LOW CRAZE RICE.
Beaumont Man Thinks This The
Proper Solution OF the Problem
OF Over Production.


We take pleasure 10 reproducing
In part. the opinion Of Mr.. W. B.
Dunlap. president OF the San JaciutO
Rice Company, as given IN the Lake
Charles Press, OF recent date The
views OF President Dunlap are in &C.
cord with what the Journal has ad
vocated since the question Of overpro-
ductiOn first came up, and we believe
Is the only possible solution that will
give immediate relief to the present
condition OF the market without en-
failing serious loss to the rice
growers. Mr.. Dunlap says:
ii cannot indolse the Louisiana
plan OF dumping Il million bags of
rice abroad at any price in order to
relieve the market. =
LAS | see it, the situation demands
not somuch an heroic remedy as it
does one that is logical and that can
be made permanent one that can be
resorted to every ,ear when at last
accumulation Of low grades leopard
ICES the entire holdings,
"fn nv opinion Il best way out OF
the situation is to cOnyer. this poor
grade stuff into ground feed for stock
and thus get itout ofthe way at better
price than could be secured by sacri-
fcing it in Cuba or any other foreign
market. Once get the stock owners
used to feeding ground rice and there
would be no need for anxiety on the
part of rice growers aS to what they
were going to DO with their Inv grades.

Lose. Nine Hogs By Suffocation

Phil Paroni lost nine hogs by suffoca-
ton SONS time last week during the
heavy wind and o storm. 1t seems
the hogs have been in the habit of going
into an old abandoned tunnel in the
rear Of the Winzell residence on Mob
Hill. west of town. and sleeping there
at night. After the pigs had entered
the tunnel. and probably gone to sleep,
the snow began drifting, which entirely
closed the mouth of the drift, resulting
in the s~uffocation of the porkers. Mr..
Paroni was aware of the fact that his
hogs ~frequented this tunnel, and as
they did not come home for several
days he instituted a search for them.
On digging away the snow at the mouth
of the drift he discovered the pigs in
side all huddled together dead. The
carcasses of the animals were buried
where they were found by closing the
mouth of the tunnel.

Hogs Make a Rough House

Late Friday night last week several
hogs got into the wash house in the
rear Of the Brown Hotel through the
west door by pushing it open, which
closed again after they had gained en-
rance to the room. Shortly after get
ting inside they began making q rough
house of the place, knocking down a
stove and stovepipe, breaking down a
bedstead in the room, tumbling the bed.
clothes about the floor and ripping a
mattress open and scattering the con-
tents around the room. After commit
ting this havoc and folding no food the
hogs concluded to leave the place. The
door being shut they could not get out
that way, and finally they went through
a window on the east side, demolishing
the sash and window panes. Those in
the hotel who beard the racket were
unable to account for the noise until an
investigation was made and the tracks
Of the hogs seen on the snow where
they had made their exit.

COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL
All Preliminaries Looking to Its
Establishment in January Next
Have Been Arranged

At a meeting Of the Board of County
Commissioners held Monday, December
6, it was moved. seconded and carried
that J.. B. Bale. Chairman of the Board.
be authorized on behalf of the Board and
in conjunction with the School Trustees
of the Eureka district school, to enter
into a contract or to employ George Fl.
Ooverdale as principal Of the Eureka
County High School and of the Eureka
district school for the period Of six
months from the commencement Of the
school month in January. 1910, at a
salary not to exceed $3.50 per month.
The Eureka County High Schools pro-
portion of said $3.50 not to exceed si25.
In relation to the above matter a
joint meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners as q County Board Of
Education. the Trustees of the Eureka
district school and G.. H. Coverdale, was
held at the Office of the District At
torney On Monday. December 10, at
which Mr.. Coverdale agreed to accept
the position as principal of the Eureka
County High School and of the Eureka
district grammar school on the terms
set forth above.
The Commissioners and the Trustees
also came to an understanding about
the rental of suitable rooms for the High
School, the proportion to be paid by
each for fuel, janitor, water, etc., all
of which will appear in detail after the
contract is drawn up by the District At.
torney between the respective parties.
The Commissioners are in correspond
ence regarding the hiring of an assistant
principal.
In conversation with one Of the men,
bers of the Board of Education in re-
gard to the above matter he stated that
the County High School is now an as
sured fact; that the first installment of
taxes had been paid without protest
from any one. He further stated that
the starting of the County High School
would be of great advantage not only to
the pupils Of the High School but also
to those of the grammar and primary
grades.
For several years past the trustees of
the Eureka district school have not had
sufficient funds to do justice to either of
the above grades.
The law states that any pupil who has
passed the eighth grade can be admitted
to the County High School, and the
Board Of Education extend a welcome
to all pupils throughout the county to
attend, thereby increasing the scholar
ship. And it will be the desire and en-
deavor of the Board 70 make it as good
as any County High School in the State.
