Louisiana's Opportunities.

the following, that amidst all his
varied activities, Gov. Sanders
finds time to say good word fol-
Louisiana when opportunity Of
fers.
Executive Department, Baton
Rouge, November Is, 1910.
Louisiana is forging to the
front Forced by the ravages OF
the boll-weevil into practical d.
versifcation of farming, the plant
ers of our State have awakened to
the realization that we have a soil
and climate that will raise any
crop under the sun. And after
four years of the devastating,
dreaded march of the boll-weeyil
that was to make paupers { p of
ms all, ON January l, this year,
there was more money on deporit
in the banks of Louisiana than
there has ever been in the history
of the State.
Less than a year ago one of the
great journals of this country
stated that if by some great work
of Nature Louisiana could be pick
ed up, with her richness of soil,
her climate and her possibilities,
and placed in the westward march
of the hurrying feet of the white
race, in about the position of
southern Illinois, its riches would
attract a greater rush of immi-
grants than did the gold fields of
California In 40.
In Louisiana we have one sui
phur mine that alone produces
more than all the world CON-
bined. We have FIVE salt mines,
whose output equals all the salt
production of the balance of
America. We have the greatest
oil fields in the world to-day, and
a government expert, who investi-
gated the gas fields of Caddo par
ish few days ago, says there was
a power and force wasted every "a
hours in that field greater in gen.
erative force than Niagara Falls
itself.
In Louisiana we have the great
est amount of standing timber of
any State IN the union, and last
year the output of timber was Sec
ond only to that of the State of
Washington. We have the great
est lumber mill of the world, stu
ated less than so miles from New
Orleans. That mill built of stone,
has a daily cutting capacity of
100000 feet.
Ten years ago the Constitution
al Convention of Louisiana, real
izing that railroads were needed
in our State, exempted new rail-
roads from taxation for a period of
10 years; after that statute had
been enacted we had more than
double the railroad milagaof the
State, and the good work is still
going on.
1t is well known that Louisiana
is the greatest rice and sugar pro-
ducing State in the union, but it is
not well known that we have be-
come a grain producing Slate.
Corn experts pronounce Louisiana
grown corn of the highest grade,
and last year, for the first time,
our Statesshipped millions of bush
els of that grain.
We are raising 30 to 60 bushels
Of oats to the acre, and, with heavy
fertilization, can increase this crop
on some of our lands to as much
as 100 bushels; and in our rich bot
tom lands along the Red River
four cuts of alfalfa per year are
by no means uncommon.
We have also become great

was demonstrated by a simple expert
ment.
several men climbed up on the out
side of the car in an endeavor TO TIP
it over. The horoscopes were at once
reused 10 action. and fought strongly
against the strain, so that it looked
as though they actually made the car
incline in the direction opposite TO
what seemed natural. Around the
track, with curves a great deal
sharper than those used on any regu-
lar railroad track, the car ran
smoothly, and without n percepti-

A great deal Of emphasis was laid
by the demonstration yesterday on the
possibilities Of the car in negotiating

saying that in doublc-tracked rail-
roads the rails on a curve have TO be
banked to accommodate the natural

at which a train moves. The gyro-
