HAZELTON ITEMS

The protracted meetings have at
last closed, and a good many are
trying to catch UP their lost sleep.
Last week we burned an even fif-
ty head of shoats and pigs, and the
end is not yet in sight.
A Mr.. Rose from way down in the
C. F. Betty is having the public
hall enlarged to 5Ox50 feet, large
enough for any ordinary purpose.
This is something every city needs
and c. F. is doing Hazelton a good
turn.
south part of Oklahoma was in Haz-
elton the other day and he says they
are having worse drouth down
there than we are; that is one time
we didn't object to being beaten by
our near neighbor. j,
We are watching the Santa Fees
harmony runs, and if they pan out
all right we are going to try and get
the churches in Hazelton to try the
plan and see if they can't all get to
work on the same platform.
The other day we were talking to
a man who had been here since
1877 and he says he never saw any
drouth during all of his stay here
that can compare with our present
one. This one beats the record.
We had for long time thought
that the day of miracles had passed
but since the late unpleasantness
has closed Teddy's mouth for a
whole week we are ready to confess
we have been wrong all the time.
We notice that since the Demo
cratic landslide there has been a
small cut in the price of living, thus
proving that a change even before il
had time to get in it's work, is doing
| a good thing for the laboring class

This is the first time in our lif
that we were perfectly satisfied 10
the price of hogs to be on the de
, cline;it makes our loss so much les

ANOTHER GOOD HORSE FOT

Inconalatre No. 79525

Howard Stone of the Maple Grove
Stock Farm has demonstrated
that he is not "Quitter." When
about 80 days ago he lost his fine
black Percheron Stallion most of the
people thought it would be a long
time before Sharon would see an
other as good horse locate here.
But the loss of this horse without
one dollar of insurance, coupled
with a dry year did not stop How
ard Stone who has spent the last
ten days looking over Kansas, Mis-
souri and Nebraska for the best one,
which he found at st. Joe, Mo-,
and purchased Of Chas r. Kirk. i'm
porter, and unloaded at Sharon Sat
urday-a 2-year-old French Per-
cheron weighing $780, black. and a
perfect model Howard and his horse

more than an hour Saturday even

do not know good horse, all
agreed that he was the best that
had ever been seen in Sharon.

filled out, as directed above. (2) A
certificate of yield, duly certified to
by the parish superintendent and the
committee appointed by him to meas
ure your yield. 81 An essay on corn
growing which must contain not more
than 1900 words and which should
give the most important points in
producing a good crop of corn. Be-
sides this, each contestant must ex-
hibit his best ten ears and best one
ear in the parish contest.
The pamphlet on the State, referred
to above, gives full directions of
measuring the yield of a boys corn
patch (see pages l3 and 14).
Every boy belonging to a corn club
should be diligently at work on his
crop. The plot ought to be gone over
lightly with cultivator or the harrow
or sweep every week or ten days, and
also just as soon after every rain as
possible. Keep a mulch ON your plot
about an inch and half deep all the
time. If rains set in, be sure to have
all the drains open, so that no water
may stand in the middles after the
rain. Keep on cultivating the crop
until after the corn tassels. Plant
COW peas in rows next to the corn be-
fore it begins to tassel, and leave the
middles clear so that you can continue
the cultivation later.

An Automobile Trip.

Mr.. E. ]. Domergue and family and
Geo. E. Sears and family took an ex-
cursion trip last week to Slidell and
return for pleasure and for an exami-
nation of the condition of the public
roads. The trip was started at Cow
ington and was made by way of Abita,
Talisheek, Pearl River and Alton to
Slidell, and back to Covington by way
of Bayou Lacombe and Vaudeville,
the total registered distance made by
the automobiles being 151 miles. Mr..
Sears also made trip of eighteen
miles from Covington to Madisonville,
Ponchatoula and Hammond.
The trip proved very instructive in
illustrating the possibilities of road
building in st. Tammany in COM
parison with Tangipahoa parish. Mr..
Sears says that the conditions for
road building are much more favor
able in St. Tammany parish than in
Tangipahoa, and that the roads are
much better. Exceptionally good
roads were found in the Eighth and
Ninth Wards. These roads were built
under the supervision of Mr.. B. A..
Schneider, Of the Eighth Ward and
and Mr.. ]. W. Decker of the Ninth,
and are the best in the parish.
Necessarily automobiles follow good
roads. The mere fact that the use of
automobiles is increasing rapidly in
the parish is an indication that our
roads are becoming better and more
serviceable, and this means that the
increased travel over the roads will
show their value and establish a
sentiment favorable to further inn
provement.
Mr.. Sears says that the culvert sys-
tenn used in the roads Of the Eighth
and Ninth wards is much superior to
the bridge system; that automobiles
pass over them without the slightest
jar or the necessity of slowing up in
speed.
The time is not far distant when
the demand for good roads will be SO
strong that the people will call for an
issue of bonds and the construction of
an up-to-date system of good roads
throughout the parish.
