We lett 1allahaSSe, FlOrlda, about noon. We had a pleasant time there and enjoyed eating fruits of all kinds. We visited the schools and when we came to the seventh grade the teacher was everlastingly tanning boys hide. Her eyes sparkled like fire. When we opened the door, she very politely invited us in. and to my surprise, 1 discovered that she vas my deskmate in school at Laneburg, Miss Oracle Sampson.
 We left Tallahasse for Mont gomery, Alabama. After spend ing a day in Montgomery, we decided to go to the state Capitol and on being introduced to the Governor, you can't imagine our surpsise to find that it was one ot our boys from the old home. Mr Mark Jordan. On visiting hio home and seeing his wife, We would have never known her to nave been Miss Letha Sampson had he not told us. She haa gained so much that she nov. balanced the scales at 275 lbs.
 When we arrived at Jackson, Miss, we went to the best hotel When we went down to dinner, l noticed an old batchelor sitting at a table just across the room from me that looked very famil- ar. His face wore a sad express sion. I determined to meet him before leaving the Hotel. He noticed me and asked for an interview the next day. 1 soon recognized him to be an old home friend. He told me his pitiful story with tears in his eyes. He said that when he was quite young he loved a girl and thought that she loved him, but handsome young man came along and won her heart and left him alone. Then he left his home and is now in Mississippi. I tried to console poor Willis by telling him, It was better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all. "
 While in Batonrogue, Louisia- ma, we met lots of nice people. While there 1 sent an announce ment to Austin, Texas, that 1 would lecture at the First Baptist church on Sunday a. m., also evening on 'Woman's Rights". We reached Austin just before time for my appointment. We started for the church and when we arrived we were pleased to see a large crowd already in the church. In the pulpit sat an old man with golden hair and beauti- oul wavy beard, and after inquir- ing from someone \ ho he was, l found that he was the pastor. Of course they introduced him to us. l was surprised, indeed to find that it was my old school teacher, Prof. Tompkins. Ioften ponder over those school days and realize that there l received an inspiration to become some thing higher than (as the old saying) "just to go to Heaven a setting down."
 Immediately after services were over, the people began to crowd around us inviting us home with them. Among the number was a little old man and his wife who seemed glad indeed to see us and anxious for us to % with them. About this time l recognized them to be my dear old friends at home, Miss Bettie Geo Martin and Mir. Sankie Callicott. It was 8 happy meet ing. We went home with them and spent a most pleasant after ,oo@v .olly;Yc. oxtor fho pact

Cotton Seed Meal and the Sugar Beet.

THE increased cost of living, which is now so
diStresSingly evident everywhere, necessarily
leads into inquiries as to the most economical
foodstuffs that are obtainable. This journal
desires to convince all the world of the fact that
sugar is now probably the mos valuable and
economical foodstuff to be had. 1t is by no
means a balanced ration and the protein eie-
ments of a balanced ration must necessarily be
obtained from oatmeal, fish, eggs, meats, or
some other prOteinaceous fOodstutf. Among the
possible proteinaceous foodstuifs stands one
that is not yet ayaiied Of for our humanity, and
yet we all recognize its great value for stock
feeding. and that is cotton seed meal. Ii is
often said that if the peculiar, Objectionable fla
vor of cotton seed meal could be removed from
it without injury to its heterogeneous elements, in
this meal we should have one of the best posi-
bic foodstuffS for all mankind.
Our scientists have this problem now under
consideration and we may hope that within the
coming years, and at no very distant time, the
Objectionable odor and flavor of cotton seed meal
will be removed and we shall have cotton seed
meal cakes as delicious as any that come to us
from cornmeal or buckwheat flour.
To indicate the possibility and even the prob
ability of doing this we need only refer to beet
sugars, which were so repulsive in their early
history that their sweetening power was over
Swallowed by the Objectionable beet root taste
and this in such a great degree that the sugar
refners in New York urged fifty years ago that
it would be impossible economically to eliminate
the bad flavors of ordinary beet sugar at any
cost that would enable it to compete with cane
sugar. The markets of the world are now
flooded with beet sugars and a few years back
one half of the sugar produced in the world was
produced fro n sugar beets and the old, repul-
sive flavor of half a century ago is now elimi-

The Increase i'm Rice Culture.

WHILE we on the Lower Coast are rather
disposed to hedge a little in rice culture, because
of the low market rates prevailing, the cotton
planters further up in the state, whose crops
and prospects have been destroyed by the boil
weevil and who have not the facilities for en-
gaging in cane culture, are diverting their at
tention to rice planting. Even beyond the lin
its of our own state and up in Arkansas. where
$1,000 acres of rice were planted last year, it
was reported that the acreage in rice this year
will be doubled and OR W alluvial parishes in
North Louisiana will have thousands of acres in
rice this season where not a grain has been
grown for many generations.
1t is a fact that the considerable stock of rice
that has been held in Louisiana and Texas is
rapidly diminishing and may be reduced to such
proportions before the opening of the coming
rice harvest as to enable the sale of the coming
crop at remunerative prices. 1t is a .sickening

SATURDAY. MARCH 2G, 1910,
National Corn Exposition.

TIE corn crop Of America is the great
national crop and the people of tn" United
States are coming to appreciate its value NOR"
and more every year. When We romomh"r that
the Louisiana crop Of corn was some 81 millions
Of bushels, worth TO the planters and farmers
of Louisiana over forty millions Of dollars, we
can at a glance see Of what immcncc importance
to the nation at large is the total corn product
Of the country that amounts t" nearly tire"
thousand millions of bushels and is worth 10 the
country nearly two thousand millions Of dollars.
The United States Department Of Agriculture
and the Bureau Of Agriculture Of practically
every state in the union, the various experiment
stations and agricultural societies are now tax
ing a Quickened interest in the corn crop, as be-
ing probably one Of the quickest ways Of rctieV-
ing the Stress urOn the poor at the present Tine,
because OF the increased cost Of living. Large
corr crops, while they may not depresS the price
of corn to aly very considerable extent, largely
increase the meat supply and the effects of the
large corncrGps distribute themselves so thor
oughly throughout the entire country that the
whole country is very much benefited thereby.
1t is now proposed to hold the Fourth Annual
National Corn Exposition at Columbus, Ohio,
during the two weeks, January 80 to February
II, 1911 inclusive. This is intended to be a great
agricultural congress. At the last exposition,
which was he'd at Omaha, twenty-three agricul-
turaI colleges and experiment stations took part,
each one presenting some special feature Of
their most advanced work and this in such a
- IL Il 49,. ,,1,,,ll, ,l
practical lessons therefrom. It is expected that
tuje1ty-eight or thirty states will take an active
part at the Columbus exposition. The splendid
brick buildings of the Ohio State Fairgrounds
will be utilized, two for exhibits and one for
lectures, band concerts, etc., one for machinery
and one of the largest for high class amuse-
mentS.
All this shows how the country at large is
at work and it brings us TO reflect upon the con-
ditionS in our own state and to wonder whether
or not we are as progressive here in these mat
tiers as are the people of the other states. Every
sugar planter, every cotton planter anC every
rice planter in Louisiana is profoundly interested
in the production Of corn in this state, as it is
one of the chief elements of expense in carrying
On farm and plantation work where stock feed
has to be bought from other producers. In many
of our parishes the police JurieS are offering
prizes for the best corn produced andEoys' corn
clubs have been organized in many of the par
ishes of the state. We sincerely hope that the
good work will go on and that Louisiana's corn
crop of ~fifty-one millions of bushels will soon
reach one hundred millions, which it can readily
do on the same ground, when we pay as much
attention to it as we do to the culture of sugar
cane, cotton and rice.
