Mr.. Geo. II. Payne Of Omaha,
Neb., representing the Payne In
vestment Co. of that State made
a hurried trip to this City last
Saturday and Sunday looking
over the country. His company IS
negotiating for a tract of unre
claimed land in Terrebonne ana
st. Mary Parishes, consisting OF
$4,000 acres. Mr.. H. J. Hill OF
the Louisiana Trucker & Farmer
accompanied Mr.. Payne on an in
spection trip through those Par
ishes. This Company intends to
colonize these tracts as rapidly as
purchased with farmers from the
Eastern states. At last it books
as though the advertising that
the State is securing principally
through the effort of the railroads
and none more tnan the Sol a. 4
Pacific, though not as extensive as
it might be is opening the eyes OF
the world to the undeveloped
country that exists and if only
the proper encouragement is CIV
en- capitalists by not holding these
lands at too exorbitant prices.
Louisiana will TEEN with practical
farmers in the next ten years that
will make it one Of the richest
States Of the Union.

HAD SEVEN GALLONS LEFT

MeSSrs. Leachman q Edelin,,
Grafton, W..Va., had been selling
paint, which they thought well
of and this had occurred.
They had sold a customer Is
gallons of it ito paint his house. A
few years later, they sold the
same man Devoe lead d-and-zinc the
same house. He had 7 gallons
left.
The point OF the tale is: II
gallons Devoe paints an 1S-gallon
house.
OF course that isn't all.
Why does II gallons Devoe GO
as far as Is gallons of other paint
Because it is all paint, all true, nc
sham, and full measure.
But that isn't al. Devoe lasts
longer No, no; you haven't go1
to wait ten years to find that out
Ten thousand people know it.They
think a heap of Devoe. There:

vited to meet Mr.. Willard Disch

$4,000 to 100000 and put in
another boat and several steel
barges to meet the requirement
of the business now given the
boat. On the last trip here the
boat contained freight for four
fifth of the merchants of New
iberia, supplying over four hun
dred firms between Morgan City

houses here with goods, together

tcompanied by Mr.. E. Barnett OF
