WAS enough mineral.
Nh Dial also stated that he was ne
gotiatmg with the c. 4 w. G.. officials
relative to placing spnr track from
Barksdala to the mines. A definite
answer is expected within the next
few days, there being little doubt but
that the railroad Will gladly take ad-
vantage OF the opportunity placed be-
fore them.
Mr. Dial went on To state that 20 per
cent OF the subscribed capital stock
had been called for and this was be-
inc payed up monthly This entire
first payment is expected to be paid

as soon as il is, the corporators will

Ticks or No Ticks: That is the Question
so FAR AS DESIRABLE IMMIGRATION is CONCERNED.

where our land lies, and we should be
glad to have you inform the writer
of the situation at the present time,
and any information you may have at
hand, or suggestions you may offer,
| that will assist us in determining
what course to pursue in the matter
of moving cattle, will be very much
appreciated, etc"
There is probably no likelihood OF
our losing this valuable immigrant to
the parish, however, now that he has
already purchased the property, but
the chances are hat had he sought
and obtained the information from
the Washington authorities regarding
our ticks and Texas fever before he
had made the purchase, we would
nrobabIy have never seen the "color
of his money"
And how about oother prospective
immigrants? They are not all going
to buy the ~proverbial 'pig in a sack"
Some of them at least are going to
make dne inquiry, possibly in Wash
ington also, concerning tick conditions
in the parish, before they invest.
The main inference to be drawn from
this pointed illustration is that we
cannot afford not to push the tick
eradication work in sKs6apphh if we
infect 70 e~tiaetby putting sugar. OF

i7nnortant work for the good of the

sneeestion to that effect-the work, so
far, having been undertaken by prl-
,,o+o Individuals alone, and through
their efforts and expenditures, the as

SDeCtOT mas Deeu SSSohSo
This is not written for the informa-
+ion of outsiders, but to try to place
before our own people at home a con-
dition which tends to obstruct the
cause of desirable immigration to the
parish.
A tick-free parish of East Baton
Rouge would be the best possible ad-
yertisement we could get. And
whether we can see it now or not, the
successful eradication of the cattle
tick is the biggest industrial problem
that confronts us-and the whole south
today.
W. H. DALRYMPLE.
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1911-08-19

In campaigning for tick eradication
in the parish some little time ago, the
joint committee appointed by the Bat
on Rouge Board of Trade and the Dixie
Dairymen's association, sent out some
thing like six or seven communications
to each individual farmer in the par
ish whose name was on the mailing
list. In one of these communications,
viz, that which appeared On April 26,
it was stated that "the cattle tick is
the greatest barrier we have to sue
cessful farming immigration, as no
live, wide-awake, up-to-date farmer
stockman-immigrant, from the west
say, if he should be familiar with our
present ticky conditions, is going to
take the risk of purchasing land and
settling down in the stock-raising
business in the parish SO long as these
parasites are permitted to remain.
But even if he did assume such risk,
he is not going to pay as much for
lard that is loaded down with ticks,
with all the drawbacks to his bust
ness which these pests entail, as he
would for land that is tick-free, where
he could import and raise fine cattle
with impunity, and get all the benefits
out of the cattle industry for which
this parish and section are so admiral
bly, adapted-if only the ticks wig /
stamped out" wo
The statement in the letter refet aut
to was not meant to give alarm, = ylu
rather to sound an alarm in order tina
those of u people who were no quite
so familiar with the conditions of our
people who were not quite so familiar
with the conditions mentioned should
realize the Importance, yes, f~ar-reach-
ing Importance of getting rid of the
cattle tick. And now m a practi-
cal illustration of what we meant to
convey in u communication. A par
ty in the west who has purchased land
in this parish, writes to one of u cit
liens as fellows:
I'm communicating with the secre-
tary of agriculture at Washington, D.
C., we find that the whole state of
Louisiana is quarantined on account
of ticks and Texas fever, and we (the
party's name appearing here) are at
a loss to know what to do with the
young cattle we intended shipping to
our plantation early in the fall. We
understand that considerable interest
has been manifested by the cattle
owners in that section of Louisiana

NEFF TELLS HOW
TO AVOID BAD MEAT

Coed lamb or mutton is firm, close
grained, and Light red with fat white
and mard.
Fresh veal is pa e red, with firm
white fat. Bad veal is soft, mushy,
sticky and has a blueish tinge and the
fat is a grayish lead color. Shoulders
weighing less than five pounds should
not be eaten, as the veal is immature
and what is commonly termed monkey
veal.
Good pork is solid, has pure white
fat and pink flesh. Cooy it thoroughly.
Do not buy pork that is soft or yellow.
Do not eat raw meats of any kind.
Cook all meat thoroughly, especially
Hamburg steak and pork, as cooking
kills nearly all germs h are present.
Do not buy Hamburg steak except that
which has been free.y minced.
Canned meats must be free from
mould and should nave a greenish hue
when opened. If the top of the can is
raised in the center, the contents have
probably begun to spoil and should
not be eaten. The ordor should be
the same as when freshly prepared
If there is any thing putrid present the
addition of heat will make it possible
to detect the foul odor.
Fowl.
Buy only poultry that is firm to the
touch, has pink Or yellow color witt
fresh oror and strong, unbroken skin
Stale poultry is f1abby, blush greer
on the crop and abromen, has had oder
the eyes are sunken, there is a vested
appearance of the tissues around tn
skull, and the skin is easily pulled
apart. The odor of decomposition cal
be detected in any food.
The Kitchen.
Greatest care should be used in thu
kitchen. The ice box should be KEEP
clean and filled with ice, if possible
Don't leave food standing AROUND
Don't leave it in the sink or wash-tub
Garbage cans should o leak; SHOULD
have a cover and should not be lef
standing near the ice chest OF where
the food is kept. They should b
washed thoroughly with hot water ant
soda every day. Wash meat, fish
vegetables and fruit before eating
Boil or filter drinking water in district
not supplied with filtered water
Drinking water should not be allowed
to stand uncovered. The air of win
rooms is full of dirt from human
breath and human bodies, therefor
) rooms should be thoroughly aired daily
Keep cooking utensils clean n OF
the floor. vermin and mice carry in
lection and never stay in clean places

Health Department Head Is
sues Rules for Detection Of
Impure Food in Summer
Advice to Housewives.

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug 4.-The
greatest care should be exercised by
h~ouseholders in the purchase of meats
of any kind at all times, but more
especially in the summer months, Is
the advice given by Director Joseph
S. Neff, of the department of health
and charities, in a blu letin just issued
to the public. He also gives advice
relative to the care Of meats and fowls
as we'll as all vegetables prior to pre-
pairing the same for the table. In the
bulletin Director Neff says:
Buy on'y fresh meat.
Beef should be a rosy red color witt
cream colored, firm, elastic fat an
scarcely moist when touched with thu
finger. Cook it well. Do not buy wet
fabby beef that is pink or purple
