The zadOk Realty Co.

Baton Rouge has a new real
estate firm, known as the Zadok
Realty Company, formed by
MessrS. o. B. Steele, State
Treasurer; A. DOherty, of DOher.
ty Hardware Co.; Jos. Gebelin,
cashier of the Bank of Baton
Rouge; Eugene Cazedessus, as.
sistant cashier of the Bank of
Baton Rouge; and j. H. Percy,
secretary of the Capital Building
& Loan Association.
The purpose of the concern is
to buy, rent, and sell real estate.
The company has a capital stock
OF $4,000, but we have seen no
mention of its greatest asset,
viz: the integrity of each and
every member of the firm. The
moral standing of each member
of this firm is unquestiOned and
if all business concerns had such
a high personnel as this one,
neutrality-suspicious. would prove
less burdensome.
The name "Zadok" comes from
Capt. Steele's Bible, and is first
found on page 284, reading from
the left hand side. The defini.
ton given on the Company's card
is Just, righteous" In this lat
ter day, the old Hebrew meaning
of lust. righteous" may be
freely translated lust as right
eOus as you can.

Helping to Save Money.

Through the efforts of Rev.
Caroline Bartlett Crane 400 small
bank accounts are in active
operation in the Savings Bank of
Kalamazoo. The savings cOllec-
tor, who is a trained worker, col.
lected- in the first eighteen
months of her service $14, 452.4l,
which would otherwise have
melted away into foolish expen-
diture. Gilt-framed crayOn por
traits on the wall, onyx clocks on
the mantels when the household
furnishings are sadly out of re-
pairs and the children's shoes
out at the toes, are in many of
the homes mute memorials of
where some of the money used
to 90. Now, the savings cOllec-
tor, who makes weekly rounds,
gets there before the agent with
a glittering instalment.plan bau-
BILE. She receives any amount
from five cents upwards, enters
it on the owners bank. book, and
carries it to the bank for deposit.
my husband says to me,
Amt you ashamed to give out
so little to a bank?'" declared
one woman who handed over
thirty.five cents, but | says,
No, | amt cause the bank lady
says, It's all right. >"
1t is this encouragement that
is helping many a family to save.
They never did it on their own
initiative, because they couldn't
brave the splendOr of a mahogany
desk and q framed window
with their meager mite, Now it
is saved penny by penny during
the week, and when the bank
lady comes it is brought proudly
out from the cracked teapot on
the pantry shelf, from the best
teacup in the china cupboard and
the old black stocking in the
lower machine drawer. One
family is saving to buy a home.
One woman who sews for a living
now counts seventy dollars in
the funds she is laying by with
which to send her daughter
through college. The largest of
the accounts is not over two hun.
dred dollars. They are drawn
on in time of need. But that is
precisely what they are for.
With these funds have been
bought hundreds of bushels of
potatoes and scores of tons Of
coal, some of which the Charities
Organization would otherwise
have been obliged to supply.

of the hattel-mortgage evil that

The Louisiana Corn Crop.

corn this year than ever before
in the States history. And, for,
tunately, it will bring good
price, so that the crop will
probably be easily disposed of at
a profit. 1t is pointed out by the
Daily States of New Orleans,
however, that there is a better
way still to dispose of this corn.
The States says;
Many of the great plantations
habitually produce sufficient pro.
Vender to last only for a small
fraction of the year, and thou.
sands of tons of grain and hay
are brought into the State to
supply the deficit. 1t will take
an enormous crop to supply the
normal demand for stock feed in
Louisiana, and if a way could be
found to bring the Louisiana
producer and the Louisiana con.
sumer of corn together, il will be
highly beneficial to each. In
that way a ready and most profit.
able market would be found for
all the corn produced in the
State, and the millions of dollars
sent out of the State each year
for stock feed would be kept at
home.
But even if this should not be
found practicable, there is bet.
ter way still to dispose of the
large corn crop. Horses, cattle
and hogs can be raised in Louisi-
ana quite as proftably as they
can be raised in many other
States where such industry
tiourishes. A hundred bushels
of corn converted into pork,
beef, milk or blooded horses or
mules, will pay all the expenses
of the work of conversion, and
net O very much larger margin
of profit than the same amount
of corn shipped in bags to the
consumer. This is a matter that
should command the attention of
the corn producer before he de.
cides to risk his corn to the vicis-
STUDIES of an uncertain market.
by turning his corn into
stock the farmer will be able to
supply many of the necessities
of his home which he is now COM
PEELED to buy, and the large pOr.
ton of the value of his crop
which would otherwise be
absorbed in transportation
charges, commissions etc, would
be a net saving to him"
There isn't any doubt that if
we sell all of our corn as soon as
it is harvested this fall we shall
be buying part of it back at a
higher price next spring. And
if we fail to use it to produce
meat we shall have to buy meat,
too, at a high price, There has
been considerable talk of LOuisi.
ana corn for export, when if the
truth is known every ear of corn
produced in this State this year
will be needed for home con-
sumption, if proper disposition is
made of it.

Paying the Piper.

payer seldom knows or acquaints
himself with what fabulous sums
are appropriated by the legisla.
lure OF his state to make appoint
tees for the governor, and to
crafty the appetites of the lucky
appolntees to Office. Of course,
all men know that the governor
OF the state, acknowledgement
encouragement, secretary of
state, auditor, state treasurer,
the judges, are all constitutional
officers whose salaries are fixed
IN the state constitution and
must be paid. The states in.
situations for the blind, for the
dumb, the state schools, hospitals
Tor the sick, for the insane, con-
federate homes and pensions for
the veterans, state printing, the
militia, board of agriculture,
must all be maintained, but,
what we desire especially to call
attention to, are the appropria.
tiOns that are fabulous in
amount, when il is considered
how little good the taxpayers
receive for these monies appro.
priated, and how little real work
is done by the men to whom
these monies are appropriate.
ed. The legislature, session of
1908, appropriated for immi.
grafton purposes, for the years
l9O9-l9lO the sum OF $40, 900, and
for an immigration station in
New Orleans, the sum of S., 900.
For these $4,000 what will the
State of Louisiana receive? Pos.
sibly, a few dagoes, the scum of
Europe, who will stop in New
Orleans, sell fruit and be voted
by the New Orleans bosses for
the ring ticket in state and New
Orleans city elections, and de.
strOy country votes. The Louis
lana Railroad Commission will
cost the state of Louisiana as in.
cluded in the general appropria
ton bill session 1908, the sum of
SIT, 500 for the year 1909 and a
like amount for 1910. The
amount of good that the people
will receive from that commits
sion, we prefer to leave every
reader of the Democrat to Judge
for himself. If We need the
railroad commission, then why
should it cost the state, for two
years, $4,000? The state board
of equalization cost the state, in.
cluded in the general appropria-
ton bill for the years 1909 and
1910 the sum of $4,000. The
state board of health will cost
the state for the two years, 1909
and 1910, $4,000. The state
crop pest commission, included
in the general appropriation bill,
will cost the state, for the year
1909, $4,000 and for the year
1910, $4,000. The state board
of engineers, as per general APP
preparation bill, session of 1903,
will cost the state for the two
years, 1909 and 1910, the sum of
$4,000. Admitting that we need
all these boards, in the name of
common sense, is the state of
Louisiana not paying too much
money to the lucky appointees
for the good that the state re-
ceives and for the amount of
work done in these offices?-Mer

Mr.. Hoyt Begins New Duties.

Henry NJ. Hoyt who was solicitor gen
eral of the Department OF Justice during
President Roosevelt's two terms and
whose appointment as counselor Of the
State Department was announced at Bev-
erly yesterday, has taken the oath of
office and entered upon his new duties. 1t
is announced that either Secretary Knox
or Assistant Secretary Wilson will with
in the next week make public statement
covering the details of the proposed re-
organization Of the far eastern division of
the State Department and specifically de-
fining the duties which will be assigned
to Mr.. Hoyt. Until that statement is
made the officials now in Washington de-
cline to discuss the matter. Ii is under
stood. however, that Mr.. Hoyt's position
will be very similar to that occupied by
the under secretaries in a number OF
European governments.
