ever-growing regard between the tw'
nations.
The Emperor expressed confidence
that the Italian and Russian govern
ments would labor to cultivate this
sympathetic bond. which would not
only lead to an agreement in then
reciprocal interests. but also to a gen
eral peace. He ended by toasting the
Italian royal family and the great

THE PACKING HOUSE
Its Construction Delayed. but a Market
Will Lead to the Encouragement of
Farmers and Planters

After the failure to secure the packing
house which was promised and which
apparently was almost i'll reach. the citi
zens interested in this project with the
Shreveport Progressive League have
finally agreed on a plan which should
encourage farmers and planters to raise
cattle and swine for the market.
Heretofore the great obstacle has
been in not having a market at which to
sell cattle and swine 1t was easy to
glut the market with few cattle and
hogs and with no possibility of sale. the
owner of the cattle or swine were sub
ject to sacrifice or the return home with
their product which was costly and un-
profitable
The great incentive in the packing
house is the opportunity for selling at
market prices, at any time during the
year, and this may now be obtained
through the arrangement between J. c.
Mahlen and c. c. Herndon and the
ScIltIcIicil oI Tue Progressive League.
Mr. w. F. Glassel and others. who
have been active in the promotion of the
packing plant. Whatever cattle or swine
for sale will be sold at the prices fixed
at the leading market for that day and
the cash will be paid to the seller. who
will be treated fairly and be encouraged
to extend this industry
There is no better section in the world
than North Louisiana for the raising of
cattle and swine, and with this oppor-
tunity there should be an active business
The days for buying will be Fridays
and Saturdays
