sa.si Each years effort should
be to exceed last years sales. The only sure
way to do it is to advertise. Advertise in
busy times because the iron must be struck
while it is hot, and advertise in dull times to
heat the iron.
1t can be done.

DoNALDsoNvILLE, La, SATURDAY NOVEMBER 5,
Club BOYS at College.

Among the premiums offered to the
| boys of the corn clubs in some parishes
a e free scholarships to the farmers short
course at the Louisiana State University
This course will last two weeks, opening
January and closing January 21, 1911.
| Of all premiums offered to the corn club
! boys none win commend itself more to
! the intelligent man than these scholar
ships, For, while they represent an out
LAY only of railroad fare and about $40
for two weeks board, their possibilities
for good to the farmer boy are unlimited.
| Conceive, if possible. what it would
mean in the lives of our ambitious farmer
boys to spend two weeks at the College
Of Agriculture, attending the lectures of
experts on far man forage crops, soils
and fertilizers. dafrying and stock-raising,
truck, feeding. insect enemies. etc.; and,
then, seeing 2000-pound steers, examining
concrete silo; inspecting an approved
and sanitary dairy; studying in a practi-
cal way the packing and Grating of truck;
judging corn, hay, cattle, and hogs; pre-
pairing balanced rations for live stock;
studying in connection with the college
hothouse the possibilities of winter grow
ing of vegetables for the northern mar
kets; examining. taking apart, reassem-
bling, and operating the most improved
types of farm machinery; getting in touch
with the great investigations conducted
by the experiment station; learning
something of the anatomy of live stock
and the treatment of common dis
eases.
These are some of the phases of ag-
riculture dwelt upon at the short course;
and the work is all done in a simple,
practical way, such that any intelli-
gene boy of fifteen can fully grasp and
utilize. When the significance of the
farmers short course to the ambitious boy
is considered. and its significance to the
state, it is to be regretted that any boy in
Louisiana worthy of taking the course
should be deprived of the privilege
through the want Of few dollars for
necessary expenses. Here is an opportu-
nifty for the Well-to-do citizen to confer a
great boon to some deserving boy.-Dept

MARRIAGE AT MITCHELL, S. d.
William Il. Blackmarr, Formerly of
DEBORAH, Becomes Benedict
in South Dakota.

News of the marriage of William
I. Blackmarr, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mel Blackmarr, of this city, was re-
ceived by DEBORAH friends last week.
The following account of the mar
riage appeared in the Mitchell
Daily Republican:
A delightful home wedding oc-
Cured on Tuesday afternoon at SIS
Second Avenue East. The occasion
was the marriage of Miss Alma M.
Larsen to Mr.. William T. Black
MARI. Promptly at o'clock the
young people took their places in
the front parlor and then the i'm
pressive ceremony that united them
in holy wedlock was spoken by Rev.
+. M. LETTERS, of the Baptist church.
The bride was accompanied by her
intimate friend, Miss Rose Weber.
who acted as brides maid, and Mr..
n. Patterson was in company with
the groom, acting as best man.
The bride looked very attractive
In white silk lansdown made in the
princess style with lace trimming,
and she will receive the congratula-
lions OF wide circle of friends for
she has held a position with the Da-
kota Central Telephone company of
this city for long time. The groom
is fine young business man, who
holds an excellent position with the
Milwaukee railroad company.
After congratulations the COM
pany sat down to three course
dinner prepared by Mrs. Blackmarr.
The groom's parents came from De-
corah, Iowa, in the early winter and
now that the wedding event is over
they will return to Iowa as soon as
the young people are we'll settled in
their new home. The groom has
rented and beautifully furnished one
OF the new cottages erected last sea-
son on Second Avenue East by J.
b. Doty, and there they will be at
home to their friends after March

DECORAHIAN IN NEW YORK.
Arthur Wick Writes About HIS Trip
to New York. Tells About the
Skyscrapers and Places of
Interest.

Dear Editor
A number of my friends have
asked me to write them when l got
10 New York, so l am going to try
10 reach them all through Public
Opinion.
arrived here from Chicago on
Thursday morning about $3.50, and
as / came across the Hudson from
the Pennsylvania R. r. Terminal
a wonderful sight met my eyes for
from the Battery" on the right
hand, clear UP to the Metropolitan
building stretched a row OF sky
scrspers, and towering above all the
rest were the Singer and Metropol-
itan buildings. Out in the bay, on
Bedloes Island, stands the Statue
CT Liberty, one of the sights OF the
city. The first time l was in the
city, this being my third visit,
climbed to the top and had fine
view of the harbor.
Although l have not had very
much time for sightseeing, l have
been able to see several interesting
places and things. The Aquarium
in Battery Park is worth a visit any
time. The corner of Wall Street
and Nassau is an interesting place.
If a person from the West should
come into Nassau street unexpected
ly, he would almost think riot was
in progress, when he saw and heard
the curb brokers trading on the
market. Here is also the Stock
Exchange and the Treasury; on the
corner is the Office of J. p. Morgan.
At the head of Wall Street stands
Trinity Church, the wealthiest
church in America. This church is
we'll worth a visit Around the
church is the old cemetery, where
many of the oldest settlers have
been buried. The cemetery looks
very much out of place here. There
are skyscrapers on all sides of it
rising to a height of 20 to % stories.
Farther up Broadway is the end
Of Brooklyn Bridge. A wonderful
piece of work, although it has been
surpassed by the other bridges.
There are four bridges now crossing
the East River and more are to be
built
/ think the greatest piece of work
is the subway which extends from
Brooklyn City Hall clear up to the
Bronx, the northern end of Manhat-
tan. passing underneath the East
River. Local trains stop every few
blocks, while the express trains stop
only at a few places. The express
trains travel sometimes 60 miles an
hour. There is also a subway tun-
mel underneath the Hudson River.
This was opened the first time I
was in New York, and l crossed the
river in it the day after it was OPEN
cd by Pres. Roosevelt. Thursday
March Sd, Mr.. Saervold sails for
Norway, having ended his lecture
tours in this country, and l depart
for Washington, d. c, on my return
home, where l expect to be in about
two weeks.

Insult to Carriers.

The rural mail carriers out of
DEBORAH are terribly wrought up"
over the recent decision of the
postoffice department prohibiting
them to hunt while serving their
routes. One of the carriers in par
ticular, who has been accustomed
to provide his home with meat of
the chase, such as venison, wood
chuck, walrus and chipmunk, says
other volunteers the information
that caribou and grizzly bear, ETC.
especially the etc.-are so numerous
along his route that he comes back
with a wagon full every day.

The Spring Trade.

Mr.. Ben Bear recently returned
from New York, where he purchas-
ed an immense stock of spring and
summer clothing, and tells about it

His stock comprises everything in
the newest line of clothing and gents
furnishings, and it is a more COM
prehensive, up-to-date line of goods
than can be found III any store in
this section of the country. 1t Will
be well worth your time to call and
