An over crowded poultry house does
NOT mean thrift for any. and especial.
ly for smaller and weaker ones. Which
are usually the young and smaller
pullets.
The higher price is partly won BY

perior quality of well-covered soft

Progress in farming is an individual
problem from the solution Of which
the state. the nation and the world
must benefit.
Hens that are good layers and that
are fed right will lay up to 40 per
cent right through the first half Of
the moult.
Iowa IL in q class by itself as hog

grown in Iowa is fed to its 6.4Ss.0 900
swine.
Many a man has been surprised at
the effect of one load Of barnyard
manure scattered about under tree.
It gives new life and fruitfulness.
An ordinary 160 corn-belt farm can

THE COURT HOUSE SQUARE
1t Is for the Use of the Public, But Is
Not a Resort for Drunkards nor
Vagabonds.

The court house square is the place
where people may congregate and rest
but it is not intended as a resort for
drunkards, nor vagabonds, nor snoozers
During the hot days there are many of
the people who seek the shelter of the
trees, which if yet small, afford con-
siderable shade. Under the shade Of
trees people, millionaire or pauper, may
rest, but there must be maintained a de-
gree of reservation which can not be
transcribed by license, which is mis-
construed for liberty.
For instance, if one of the people in
the enjoyment of his so-called personal
liberty should become intoxicated in
drinking near beer" sO-called, or some
other vile stuff, this one or any other
one of the people has not right to sleep
off his booze on the Court House
square; nor should any one of the dear
people, even to the poor old man, be
permitted to snooze on the court house
square, especially when some of his
person may be exhibited, indecently to
the public at large. Because a man may
not be garbed in the up to the fashion
of today is no reason why he should not
be permitted to enjoy some recreation
cn the Court House square, but every
one of the people, must be required to
observe the rule of good department or
be removed from the Square.

R. N. MCCLELLAN
Is Candidate for the Office of Depart
ment of Streets and Parks, Commits
sion Form of Government

When R. N. Mcclellan, generally well
known as "Rube,' announced his can
didacy for the office, Department of
Streets and Parks, he was given the as
surance Of active and hearty support by
many of his friends. These are in
creasing in number. Indeed, Mr.. Nc
kellar has staunch friends everywhere
III this community, in every sphere of
life. Mr. Mcclellan, once Mayor of
Shreveport with splendid record to his
credit, is well equipped in practice and
in experience for the position he seeks.
He was the first citizen of Shreveport
who demonstrated the advisability of
street paving from an economic view.
In the face of an opposition of ridicule
and Encouragement he paved with brick
one block on Milan street from the in
tersection Of Texas avenue to Louisiana
This he accomplished without having a
cent with which to pay for the outlay,
but his demonstration was so thorough
that street paving became popular and
stands today as one of the best mediums
for the advertisement of Shreveport.

Of the candidates announced for of
flee under the commission form of gov
crnment are men who having been sue
ccssful in the management of their bus
mess and private affairs, give assurance
of a satisfactory control of the depart
nent of the municipality to which they
may be entrusted by the vote of the

win, who aspires to the office specified
under the law providing a government
by commission as the Department of
Streets and Parks This Office is all
important and is filled with responsible
tiles. However, Mr. Chatwin is equal
TO any emergency, should any arise, as
to streets and parks. He has had years
of experience in contract work of side
walks and streets and has acquired
reputation almost national in the revet-
ment of river banks In palmer words,
he has secured protection to banks on
the river at various points which threat
ened the destruction of millions of prop
erty. On this subject could be written
several columns of the work accom-
plished by Mr.. Chatwin. In brief it may
be said that Mr.. Chatwin is not only
thorough in his knowledge of cement,
sidewalks and streets, but is strictly re-
liable. He is of the firm of Chatwin

known as is Mr.. Currie scarcely needs
any commentator from newspaper,
nor should we make ext vacts from his
address, which may be perused with in
terest. However, we may say in all
candor and earnestness that Mr.. Currie
IS in every respectswell qualified to fill
The Office of Mayor, under tie proposed
government by commission system He
has had practical experience as the
head of this city's government in the
past with many good things to his credit.

that such system would be exceedingly
to Shreveport, in fact a
great improvement over the old way of
the city's affairs intelIgently
He is thoroughly identified with the best
