WEATHER AND CROPS
Increased Acreage and Good Prospects
Report for Week Ending April 10.

The New Orleans Picayune says: Tht
past week has developed some marked
changes in the weather throughout tht
South. In Texas, where good rains hat
fallen the preceding week, there was
again a recurrence of liberal showers
and Oklahoma and Arkansas have also
experienced good rains. The rain bel
extended into the central portions oi
the cotton section and even into the At
lantic States so that on the whole the
week has been decidedly favorable te
agricultural interests.
While there has been some talk of toe
much rain west of the Mississippi river.
and consequent delay to planting opera
tions, it is more than likely that this
fear of delay has been exaggerated. The
week closed with the customary April
cold spell, but it is not probable that
any damage has been caused, as those
portions of the cotton belt that would be
liable to very low temperatures have not
yet commenced planting, hence there is
no cotton up to be injured.
From all sections come reports of in
creased acreage and good progress III
planting the crops. In the more south
erly portions OF the belt cotton is al
ready UP and shows good stands. Much
the same may be said of the corn crop,
tht acreage of which is certain to show
an increase, as will the area devoted to
other, cereals and food crops generally
The weather has been rather too dry
for the welfare of the planted rice until
within the past day or two. In the river
section the acreage is being increased
while in the western part of Louisiana
and in eastern Texas only normal or
slightly decreased acreage is being
cultivated.
Some complaints are coming in from
the sugar district of insufficient mois-
ture, although as yet no damage has
been done and at the close of the week
good rains were experienced in practi-
cally all portions of the sugar belt. The
crop is showing a good stand every
where, and if adequate moisture is now
received there is no reason why good
yield may not be the ultimate outcome.
The weather has been favorable for
the proper cultivation of sugar cane as
we'll as all other crops, and the fields
everywhere are now in shape to make
the most of the usual spring rains. The
sentiment throughout the country is op-
timistic with respect to the crops, it be-
ing the general belief that all have ex-
perienced good start

NELSON SURRENDERED
He Shot and Killed Sam Jackhon, Hi!
Uncle.

A ftal affray occurred Sunday after
noon on the old Ford place near Flour
noy, in Caddo parish, when Ras Nelson
a negro, aged 10 years, shot and killed
Sam Jackson, his uncle, aged 23.
These two negroes had been playing
bali when dispute arose over the game
during which Sam Jackson offered some
remarks offensive to Wilson, who
walked half mile away returning with
a pistol demanded an explanation and
an apology. On being asked by Wilson
if he Oackson) was serious in his re-
marks and receiving an affirmative an
swer, deliberately pulled out his pistol
and fired at close range at Jackson, who
fell dead where he stood.
In surrendering Wilson submitted the
plea of self-defense, but from all &C
counts this killing was deliberate mur-
der Wilson was jailed charged with
murder.

MURDERED WOMAN
Near Pollock, with Young Child in Her
Arms.

Pollock, La, April I8.-Friday night
about 10 o'clock at the little village of
Nugent, eight miles south of this place,
terrible murder was committed From
the facts gathered at the coroner's in
quest it would seem that during the
heavy storm that prevailed through this
section that night. two parties, man
and a woman, supposed to be Walter
Peck and his mother, entered the house
occupied by Joe Moody and began fir
ing at Mrs Moody. Three shots were
fired, two of them striking the woman
in the head, and both of them penetrat-
ing the brain Mrs. Moody was in the
bed sleeping with 6-months-old baby
i'll her arms, and another child about
six years old at her side and the blood
from her wounds drenched the baby's
clothing There were no eye-witnesses
save Moody and the 6-year-old child,
and when the shots were fired Moody
ran to his brothers. house about half a
mile away for help and on the return of
Moody and his brother the child said:
Walter Peck and an old woman cut
a1ama's throat" Besides the wounds
from the two shots which struck her,
Mrs. Moody was stabbed in the throat,
but the knife wound was inflicted after
she died from the effects of the gunshot
wounds, it is believed.
The sheriff was telephone for at once
and Moody, Walter Peck and his moth
.er will most likely be arrested. Moody
has already served a seven year term in
The penitentiary for arson.

CONGRESSMAN WATKINS
Insists on the Official Confirmation Of
the General Land Office.

Washington, April I8--A congressman
who has been deceived more than twice
breads sending messages to constituents
until he has had official corroboration
of thing he hopes to be true. There
tore, Representative Watkins Saturday
went down to the General Land Office
seeking official confirmation of the re-
port that Secretary Ba4inger has de-
clded to make no change in the bound
aries of the land districts in Louisiana
He got it.
Now, Mr.. Watkins believes that his
friends, the correspondents, tell the
truth or at least try to do so, but he
could not afford to take their word for
it that the head of the Interior Depart
ment had really issued such statement
'as he did. Therefore, he went to the
General Land Office.
The excess of caution was bred in the
judges mind because, including the re-
port that nothing would be done, he had
heard four reports. The first was that
the consolidated Offices was to be in
New Orleass. He had that from official
sources more than year ago. The
next report was that it was going to be
sent to Alexandra. He read the re-
commentator to that effect. Then he
heard that Baton Rouge would get the
Office
The oscillations at the General Land
Office were not due to uncertainty in the
minds of the General Land Office off
cials, but to the exigencies to what, for
.courtesy's sake, is called Louisiana Re-
publicanism and the desire of the Presi-
dent and Postmaster General Hitchcock
to keep the fight between the two fac
tions of Office holders from becoming
acute in advance of the time when they
can use one or both factions to bring
delegates to the National Convention.

THE RIGHT SPIRIT
The Typographical Unions Contribution
to the Chamber of Commerce.

The Shreveport Typographical Union
has contributed twenty-five dollars to
the fund of the Chamber of Commerce
which has been remitted by check to E
K. Smith, president, in letter by H. F,
Martin, secretary and treasurer of the
Union.
The contribution is dictated in the
right spirit and is responsive to the SEN
tinent of progressiveness which is
growing substantially.
In transmitting the check, Secretary
Treasurer Martin says:
Shreveport Typographical Union
wants to go on record as booster" for
Shreveport, commercially and industri-
ally, or in any other way According
to the tenets of our association we be-
fieve that in unity is strength, and
hence by afiliation with the Chamber
of Commerce we believe that we can
more successfully put our shoulder to
the wheel of progress and push for
ward our citys interests. to the goal of
commercial success"
Not only of commercial success" but
that success from which is developed
the diversified industries which are pro-
motive of prosperity.
1t is clearly the duty of every good
citizen to get together and in the
spirit of the Shreveport Typographical
Union would suggest the boosting of
Shreveport in every way possible and to
make things hum.

THE HIPPOPOTAMI
Congressman Broussard Explains His
Scheme-Declares that Food for This
Animal Is Going to Waste.

Representative Broushard, in explain
ing his scheme for raising hippopotami
in the Mississippi river, in the Tribune
of Sunday said:
"We need more critters in this coun-
try. Just plain critters. For more than
four hundred years we have raised three
animals for our principal meat supply
cattle, sheep and swine At least, we
believe we subsist on these three. | am
told that unwittingly we often eat horse
meat, and the flesh of a smaller, even
more faithful, friend of man when we
are not conscious of the fact
AT any rate, all the animals / have
mentioned were imported from Europe.
| think that by utilizing these we can
easily add a million tons of meat each
year to our supply. The food for the
hippopotamus is going to waste down
there; it is almost running the river vii
lagos by stopping up the streams and
ponds
The Louisiana streams are fearfully
clogged with water hyacinth. The fish
ing industry IS being ruined; the water
is polluted and navigation is badly ham
pered. If you have looked at any of the
pictures of wild Africa, you will see that
nearly all the rivers are clean. It is
only in the shallowest streams that the
lilies grow, and in parts from which
man has banished wild beasts. This is
because the hippopotarni eat the aquatic
plants"
