it over with the rest of the bunch,
organize patrol and get ready
for business. The Press will tell
you how-but you've got to do the
work yourself-under the big ma
tional organization headed by Col.
Bonus, a brave retired army Of
ficer who knows all about scouting
because he's been through it HIM
self.
The boy scout companies are be-
ing formed at various places in
America and movement to estab-
lish national boy scout bureau I'M
der a competent army officer is
rapidly taking form.
The boy scouts training is COM
prehensive one. He is taught to
find food, fire and shelter from
what nature offers him; to follow
trail; to communicate by signal
over long distances; to handle a
rifle safely and to shoot it accur-
ately. and, before his training is
completed, he is initiated into that
| woodcraft.
This last accomplishment is
made up of multitude of details.
For instance-how many grown
men are there who know how to
build proper camp fire? The boy
scout learns this early in his train
ing.
The real woodsman's fire is a
small affair of Goals and flame
about as big as campaign hat.
Such a fire is better to cook over
than the typical picnic bonfire
and it gives off no smoke by which
a lurking enemy might be warned
to flee or guided to attack.
The boy scout movement started
in England, where literally hum
dreds of thousands of boys are or
ganized under the leadership Of
General Baden Powell a hero of
the Boer war. 1t has spread rapid
ly to the British colonies, to Ger
many and other countries.
The Boer war proved that even
the mature, city-softened English
| men were capable of learning to
| find food and shelter outdoors and
though this was slow in coming
not to make himself conspicuous
mark for every hostile rifle within
range. 1t is poor time to begin
this training when an alert enemy
is at hand to make a bloody inter-
ruption of the lesson at every OPP
| pOrtnnitv.

HOW TO SAVE YOUR CORN.
Agricultural Department OF state UnlVsrslly
Tells How Farmers Gan Fight Corn
WeeVIl.

The Department Of Agriculture OF
the Louisiana State University has
issued the following circular:
Have you ever found your corn ID
the late spring completely eaten up
by the weeVils in your bins? It is
safe to say that many hundred thou
sand dollars Of corn are annually con-
sumed by Weevils. Yet every farmer
can easily wage a successful battle
against weeyils, if bis corn supply is
threatened with an invasion.
AT the agricultural high schools a
special effort will be made TO fight
the enemies Of stored corn. The bin
will be rat proof; will be sealed in
side, and have two wooden shutters
and a floor for receiving the corn and
for Ye~ntilating it. e it is found
necessary to poison the Weeyils, this
will be done by simply closing, for
tWenty-four hours, the door and shut
ters, after placing a sufficient guam
tity Of carbon bisulphide thigh life) in
fat vessels above the corn. Where
there is danger Of damage from the
Weevil, the corn should not be stored
in the shuck, as this protects the
weeyil against the action of the poi
son. About one pound Of carbon BIZ
sulphide thigh life) should be used
for each hundred bushels of corn.
When using carbon bisulphipe, the
greatest care should be taken not to.

careless we may be as to
our general supply Of corn, lone can
afford to neglect his seed corn for
the next year. This supply should
come fron ears carefully selected in
The field, and may be placed when
thoroughly dried in a suitable tight
box with a cloth or wire screen cover.
If weevils are found in the box later,
they should be poisoned with carbon
replacing the screen cover
With q tight wood cover. When the
weevils have been destroyed, the wire
screens may be restored, to insure
ventilation, at the same time protect-
ng the corn against Weeyils and
rodents.

uries, in taxes, more than the amount
Of money that was required to finance
the little Exposition that attracted
them to Louisiana. So then we see
that the Cotton Centennial Exposi.
ton although practically a failure in
its day, has been paying for itself
over and over again each year.
Would it be possible to conceive
ansohject lesson more impressive and
convincing than this one is Of the
value Of an Exposition to the State
in which it il held? In the presence
Of such facts can any individual in
Louisiana say that he has not a di-
rect personal interest in securing
the Exposition in New Orleans?
Those are things that make the
Exposition amendments the most i'm
portant issue before the people OF
Louisiana to-day, and that is why
they should receive every vote that
is cast, regardless OF whether a voter
be q Democrat or a Republican, q
Regular or Reformer, a Socialist or
Whatnot.
When it comes to determining
whether or not one should be will

which every voter in Louisiana may
conscientiously give his most eDthu-

Where are The BOysg

We have for the past years noticed
one very undesirable feature in the
attendance of our public schools in
the higher grades, viz: There are as
. rule, many more girls attending
than boys. Of coursein some schools
this is not the case, but in the ma
joritY Of them it is. Why is this?
Where are the boys? They leave
school, many Of them in their early or
middle teens as soon as they are able
to get a position as clerk in some
store or Office under the impression
that they are wasting time BY res
naming ID school longer. The aver
age boy thinks that II be gets some
business position that will enable him
TO earn a few dollars a month, and
that looks toward his final occupation
in life, while his classmate sticks to
school three or four years longer he
has just SO many years the start Of
companion who remains ii school.
Now the real facts in the case are
that the reverse Of this is truth.
The boy who remains in school and
acquires a thorough education lays a
foundation that will surely, other
being equal. enable him to sur
pass his elassmate, who left school
three or four years earlier. -Ibe-ville

A Vote for Prosperity,
BY w. q. CHEVIs.

BY W. Y. CHENISs
In all political campaigns occasion
is afforded for differences of opinion
among men who are equally honest
and patriotic; for it is in the clash
Of contending opinions that great
ideas are evolved and great reforms
are wrought out. Our forefathers,
perceiYng the necessity in q popular
Government Of the fullest freedom Of
thought and speech, made them es-
aential parts Of our great National
political edifce; thereby imparting
To the voice Of the people an inpor-
lance and dignity which il enjoys no
where else in the world.
Therefore, it Is not surprising, nor
is il d matter to cause concern, that
men should differ with regard to pub
lie policies, political platforms and
in their respective estimates of meas
ure and men. So long as they hold
to the vital certain few great prin-
ciples which underlie the structure
of all well-ordered Government, hon
est differences concerning methods,
measures and men, constitute the
most certain guarantee Of good gov
eminent.
The Exposition amendments to be
voted upon at the election in No
yember are non-political in character,
for the benefits that a great Expo
sition will confer upon the State can
not be monopolized by any party, any
faction, or any group Of individuals,
however powerful they may be.
These amendments constitute one
issue which men Of all shades of
political belief may stand together in
The knowledge that in supporting
them they are performing a patriotic
service to- their State. and making
possible the opening Of the greatest
era Of prosperity that has ever
dswned upon the South.
Commenting upon The value Of the
proposed Panama Exposition to this
section, the Crowley Signal aptly OBJ
serves that Father Cary who led
the host Of Western farmers to
Southwest Louisiana paid many times
over the cost Of the Cotton GentenniaI
ia 1884. That is not putting The
case toe strongly. The Cotton Cen
tennial determined Mr.. Cary to locate
ia Louisiana. He brought down hun
dFsds Of farmers from Iowa, Neb-
raska, Kansas. Illinois and other
States and located them on the raw
prairie lands which were then to a
very great extent wild, unfruitful and
comparatively valaelesa. These
Western farmers added many millions
81 dollars to the annual value Of the
agricultural production and the per-
nanent wealth Of the State. They
helped US TO build good roads. good
schools, good society, churches, etc
