the business, but after they have
paid the labor for harvesting. the

ltivation, etc, and rushing out such
a perishable product to the marke
they don't realize much Of it.
They can't hold their crop and
have to let it 60 when ripe. even
at very low market price, which
lis generally the case when fruits
are plentiful, whereas pecan crop
can be held until prices go up in
case of large crop, but this we
will not live to see. At the rate

at least before we can raise
enough of pecans and other nuts
to do away with the importing

BIG STORM IN HAMMOND.

Hammond, La, July 5.-One
the worst storms since the men,
orable one of September, two
years ago, visited Hammond this
morning and for one hour rain fell
in torrents, while a high wind pre-
vailed at great velocity.
1t is believed that the damage
at interior points in the parish will
aggregate heavy losses. The
wind and rain did considerable
damage to the business houses
here. in one instance causing a loss
of 81 900 to a local drug store.
Telephone wires were paralyzed
for an hour or more and all bust
ness was practically suspended
during the storm.
Reports north of here indicate
much trouble in operating trains
over the l. G. and mail trains are
from one to four hours late.
Lightning played havoc also.
aside from breaking wires and
burning out fuses.
Two Dead by Lightning.
Salvador Gennevolli, 60 years
old, and his son, Vincenzo, aged
80. the former member of the
Hammond Farmers Association,
were instantly killed by the self
same bolt of lightning.
The unfortunate men sought the
shelter of an clubhouse during the
prevalence of the storm and both
met death there. They are rela-
tives of the Grozimo family doing
business in New Orleans and Ham
mOnd.
At II o clock indications pointed
to a continuation of rain though
the storm proper has passed to the
northeast, no doubt leaving death
and destruction in its path.

SUGAR VS.. THE COCKTAIL.

We Gvote below from The Chris

pure candy is good for chill

grown people. OF course, there
are exceptions to every rule. If
the doctor prescribes a diet and
order a patient ta refrain from
sweets, the patient is bound to
obey his adviser. What is the
use Of calling a physician and

Those who have looked into the
matter have been telling us late
ly that soldiers on the march hold
out better if they have rations Of
sugar than if their food omits this
useful commodity. A fondness
for sugar is often a defense
against the temptation to use al
cohol stimulants. The inebriate

MAKING THE SOUTH A LAND
or PAINTED FARMHOUSES

It is the aim of the Progressive
Farmer to start a crusade Tor
painting Southern farmhouses.
Not only does painting house add
greatly to its beauty and to the
beauty of the whole farm on which
it is situated, hut there is no doubt
about it that it has subtle psy-
Geological effect in bringing eve
|rybody on the place to a more
cheerful frame of mind.
There is something depressing
about a weather-beaten, implanted
house that can not fail to have its
effect upon the temper and dispo-
|sition of it's occupants. They can
not have quite the cheerfulness
and buoyancy that comes from
beautiful surroundings with the
contagious suggestion of cheerful
ness and prosperity in them.
Paint the farmhouse and the
farmer will very soon decide that
he must have a farm fit to keep
company with the house; he will
decide that he must clean up the
ragged patches and stop the ruin
GUS gulleys, and cure the CALLED
and sickly spots and he will pre-
sently begin to take more interest
in his own appearance also. 1t is
impossible to tell just how far
reaching are the effects of a prop
erly painted and beautiful farm
house.
Nor will this good influence stop
with the individual farmer. His
neighbors will presently become
ashamed not to have equally at
tractive homes for themselves, and
the neighborhood might soon be-
come a neighborhood of painted
farmhouses, and then this neigh
borhood might, by the same pro-
cess, awaken the emulation of 9th
er neighborhoods and spread the
good work still farther.
Not only is it worth while to
paint the farmhouse for the sake
of the beauty gained and also for
the sake Of the cheering effect
upon the persons who live in it,
but it is also worth while as a mat
ter Of simple economy. Lumber is
already expensive. and becoming
more so all the time, and paint
lengthens the life of the lumber.
The South is today the only Sec
ton Of the country in which the
painted house is not the rule rath-
er than the exception. There
might have been some excuse for
our backwardness in this matter
when cotton was selling for 5 or
6 cents pound and farm lands
worth 81 to $40 an acre, but for the
condition to exist today is an in
dictment of our civilization. Our
farmers have money enough to
enable them to paint their houses
and there is no excuse for their ,
not doing it.
We would like Ito have every
Progressive Farmer reader enlist ,,
or herself i'm this crusade
for well painted farm hons in the |
South. OF course. the farmer who !
has had a great deal of sickness
in his family Or some similar mis- |
fortune, or who is struggling to |
pay off mortgage. may be ex-
cused; but we should like for the
painting habit to become so con-
tagious among all others as to
make people say: eff the prosp-
erous farmer has not painted his !,
house, he is not a reader Of
Progressive Farmer. And even
he man who feels that he can
aot yet afford to paint, the small
farmer in debt, the tenant. can

THE SUCCESS OF TYPHOID
VACCINATION.

! The wonderful success Of vacci
nation against typhoid fever
among the troops who have been
llencamped in Texas seems to JUST
fy the order to make this precau-
I.tionary measure compulsory in the
army. All Of the medical maya
zines agree that never before in
military history, in a climate like
that of Texas, have 5000 men
lived in camp for three months
without an epidemic Of typhoid,
but In the camps at Galveston and
San Antonio no case Of the dis
ease developed. 1t is we'll to say,
however, that in addition to vac
|cination various sanitary precau-
tons which experience has taught
were taken.
Some of the medical scientists
do not feel justified IN concluding
from this one experience that the
immunization is complete, but
when the record is contrasted with
the great mortality Of other occA-
sions when large bodies of troops
were encamped, especially the
Spanish war, the argument for the
continued use of the serum is en-
tirely sound. If the present rec
ord is continued the medical corps
Of the army has added another to
its victories quite as great as the
conquest Of yellow fever and ma
laria.
Vaccination as a preventive Of
typhoid has successfully reached
Q stage which has compelled many
physicians to admit that its appli-
cation in civil practice can no
longer be neglected. As a matter
Of fact a great many people in
places were typhoid fever prevails
are taking the treatment volunta-
rily.-N. O. States.
