have taken great risk. Parish green
is deadly poison and should not be
sprinkled on any vegetable that grows
upon the top of the ground. In spring

rear platform. He has posed, not as
a representative Of either faction, but
as a harmony man. but the fact that

classed as substitute for Governor
Patterson, who withdrew because he
realized that his record had made it
