NEW SUGAR REF|NER|Es.

Reliable information comes
that Mr.. G. L. Lasalle, of New
Iberia, who ownes a large plan.
tation between Youngsville and
Cade station. Is organizing a
stock company for the purpose
OF erecting a large sugar refinery
there. The mill will have a
capacity of about 1000 tons daily
and will be built Immediately as
the men promoting the scheme
have ample means to put it
through. The new refinery will
be about two miles from Cade
station. but will not interfere
with the proposed Youngsville
refirery plans. which are still
maturing. Drs. R. 0. Young
and p. A. Duplex last Sunday
went down to Terribonne to see
about the purchase of plant
t here. The people about Youngs
vile are taking great interest in
this enterprise and are this year
planting a large acreage of sugar
cane.
Negotiations for refineries at
Scott and Carencro are still
pending and hopes are enter
tanned that the propositions may
yet carry. There is some talk
also of q refinery at or near the
old Dennis Long plantation on
Vermilion river. and this would
seem an ideal location for such
. factory.

Cure for Pear Blight.

Charles N. Clausen. who owns a
ranch on Hog creek fourteen miles
from Cambridge, was a pleasant
visitor at the American office Sat
urday. He is one of the best post
ed hor,iculturists in this section,
having many years of experience.
and is at present engaged in prun-
ing and otherwise caring tor orch
ards in this valley. He expects
to leave soon on a tour of the
Council valley orchards. Among
other valuable information given us
Mr.. Clausen gave us remedy for
the pear blight and we gladly pub
fish it for the benefit of those inter
ested, aud suggest that it be kept
for future use. Here it is:
Spray the trees thoroughly just
after the leaves begin to come out
in the spring with solution of salt
water, the same as used in picking
pork, and follow up with another
spraying in the fall. Also put from
a half gallon to gallon of dry
Liverpool salt around the roots of
each tiee. A simple remedy but
we'll worth remembering.

HAIL TO THE RURAL MAIL CARRIER

Not the least Of the benefit dcriv-
ed from the rural mail by any
means Is the responsibility 1t creates
for the maintenance Of good roads
in communities that desire the ser
vice.
At Atlanta, Mo-. the government
revoked rural route because the
people would not keep the roads
along the rotite in good repair. 1t
h not possible that there are many
communities in this valley where
the people would part with their
rural mail service rather than ex-
hibit the enterprise necessary to
make the roads accessible for the
mail carrier.
II It is understood that there will
be no mail service where good
roads arc not maintained. as the
governments policy at Atlanta APP
pears to indicate, then hail to the
rural mail carrier as the advance
agent OF better roads and conse-
qucntly better dayl

THE INHERITANCE TAX

We have been waiting to hear
of congress taking up with the re-
commendation Of the president that
an inheritance tax law De passed.
Probably the law will not be passed
but then 1t ought to be.
There are in the United States
today q lot Of anaemic descendants
Of rich fathers who II they were
thrown out into the world and
compelled to depend on their own
efforts would either become objects
Of public charity or starve to death.
They have no ability. They are as
useless as 50 many toad stools and
yer they are actually getting richer
every day, simply because they
can't help it. Hired men manage
their fortunes and the money just
piles up and continues to pile up,
Why should one Of these degenerate
watcry-eyed pimples on the face of
nature be allowed to hold the title
to untold millions which they never
earned or even helped to earnl
Why shouldn't the fortunes that
their ancestors have accumulated,
we will not say earned, 60 back
to the people and the weak-eyed
dudes be compelled to go to work. |
We are in favor of the inheritance
tax and we would make it right
heavy. We are opposed to the
building up OF any enormous for
tunes. They are bad thing for
the country and bad for the child
rem who inherit them.

To Select Seed Corn.

Every farmer should be a good
Judge OF corn. Many men who are
good judges OF livestock, give
little thought TO the matter OF
Judging between different ears Of
corn. 1t would pay every man who
grows his own seed to give enough
attention to the study OF ears OF
corn that he will be able to select
them intelligently,
The more important characters OF
a good ear OF corn may be summar
lied as follows, The shape OF the
ear should be as nearly cylindrical
possible; that Is, It should not
decidedly. Such ears give a
more uniform size OF kernel and
usually give a greater weight OF
corn to the cob.
