PREVENTION OF HOG
CHOLERA.

Under the direction of the Lou
isiana State Live Stock Sanitary
Board a serum is prepared at the
Agricultural Experiment Station
in Baton Rouge for the preven-
ton of hog cholera. This is
available for distribution at very
nominal cost among the farmers of
the State.
There are two methods of i'm
munizing an animal-one in
which serum alone is used, and
the other in which a small amount
of blood from a diseased animal
and serum are injected simulta-
neously.
When cholera exists in a herd
or in adjoining fields. serum alone
rs used. This is the safer method
because the hogs may already be
slightly infected and an added in
lection Of infected blood might
easily prove fatal. Even when
cholera does not exist IN the 10.
cality the serum method is safer,
but it does not often produce i'm
munity for much over two months.
When serum and a small amount
of blood from an inefected hog
are injected simultaneously
there is some slight risk, but the
period of immunity lasts for six
months or more, or practically
the life Of the animal.
The Board recommends that the
serum be used by qualified vete-
rinarians when available, ar it
will send an expert if his expen-
ses are paid by the parties getting
the serum.

POLITICS THAT DON'T PAY

The Lake Providence Demo-
crat. an ardent supporter of DIR.
Aswell and always friendly to
Judge Hall, severely condemns
the papers which are indulglng
in a concerted effort to injure not
only the candidacy of the Hon.
John r. Michel, but his good
name and character as well. The
Democrat says:
eve are an Aswell supporter
and hope to see him win the nom
ination for Governor Of Louisiana,
but the tac.cs Deing waged, by
some of the Aswell and Hall pap
ers against Hon. John T. Michel IS
going to lose him strength and
voters if kept up. We refer to
lands bought by Mr.. Michel while
secretary Of state. A big hella-
ballo is being made over it that
he was CRATER and feathered
his own nest and took advantage
e his position while in this posi-
ton. They are saying the very
hardest kind of things about Mr..
Michel. when half if these very
men would have done the very
same thing. This kind of politics
will do more harm than good and
~
those who are indulging in it will
find out when it is too late. 1t is
taking voters from both Aswell
and Hall, for the reason that
many think it is more of persecu-
ton.
The opinion of the Democrat
that "such politics will do more
harm than good," is true. The
average reason is fair. and wheli
any unfair or unjust method is
resorted to in order to injure a
fellowman, whether he be can
didate for Office or a private cltl-
zen, it will be resented. Some OF
the members of the so-called re-
form movement in Southwest
Louisiana are already beginning
to realize this.

GIVE THE BOYS AND GIRLS
A CHANCE.N

Schools may not make men
and women, but they will always
help. Certainly the lack of edu-
cational advantages will not
make men and women Be
cause the little log school house
with the slab benches and two-by-
four blackboard has turned out
strong men and noble women. it
does not follow that they would
not have been even stronger and
nobler and have had greater in
tiuence for good if they had bet
ter advantages in their youth.
Because your hero, perhaps,
learned his letters for himself by
a Pickering fire Of lightwood
knots and got most Of his learning g
in the "School of Hard Knocks, y
it does not follow that there is nc
better way of training men. All
the evidence agrees that the more
of opportunity, the more of cul-
ture, there can be put into the
life Of boy or girl. the better will
be his or her chance of develop
ing into the worthiest and most
useful type of manhood. We
believe, with Ebert Hubbard
that it is a good thing for a boy
TO have had the privilege of warm
ing his feet cold morning On the
ground where the cows lay the
night before; but we also believe
that it is good for him to have
had the privilege Of going to a
school house made neat and
bright and cheerful without and
within, and of advancing from
that school to higher insti.
tutions of learning where he can
breathe the air Of 6cademic in
spiration. absorb the traditions
and ideals of his college, and ac-
quire all that it can give Of learn
ing and culture and breadth OF
thought.-The Progressive Far

THE FRENZY OF DESPAIR.

The faults of Mr.. Michel, as his
opponents and his enemies judge
him, have been reduced by pub
lie elimination to the one of hav-

lifted, as marsh land a. lake 10

been certified to the common

New Orleans Picayune in chasing
this objection to Mr.. Michel as,
not onl y amusing, but exceedingly
puerile.
The then Registrar of the Land
Office classes the sale as perfectly
legal, but, adds immoral"
And why, prayi
There was no reservation as to
persons in the act and there was
no wrong in tre purchase by off
cials not connected with the de-
partment. 1t is farefetched to
cite the Governor and to exclaim
"Suppose he had bought these
lands'' But the instance is not
tenable for the Chief Executive

is with all departments of the
government. A Secretary of
State is not. and he may do things
legally and morally a Governor
may not.
Mr.. Michel was bemeaned at
first as a ward boss, but so is his
leading accuser, Mr.. Ewing Of My
Two newspapers. This has ceas-
ed TO be a ''leading objection
and for that reason.
Mr.. Michel was burningly ac-
cused of switching his ward"
from Bailey to Lambremont. As
all the candidates in that contest,
these two and Mr.. Lawrason, are
active in support Of Mr.. Michel,
and as the counted out and the
counted in" are not making
charges, this has been set aside.
Mr.. Michel has been held up to
ridicule as a mum and speechless
man. Now, that he can talk and
talk well we hear no more Of that.
Steadily he has gained in pub
lie favor; steadily his enemies and
his opponents have been discred-
tied. Even in the land purchase
matter they have been discom-
fitted and they now cling in the
frenzy Of despair to the entry of

DEMOCRATIC TICKET CON-
PLETE.

Baton Rouge, La, Oct. 23.->
Nobody will ever be able to make
superintendent I. ii. Harris be-
lieve that Friday, the 18th, is not
lucky day.
Such a combination as Friday
and the 18th would be enough to
trighten Off an ordinary man, but
state superintendent Harris had
nerve to file his declaration OF
candidacy on that day, and he is
the only man who gets a free
ticket in the Democratic band wa
gon. Every other candidate has
opposition, and if he gets a ride
WILL have to pay for it, and as
primaries are high, will have to
pay pretty dearly.
Mr.. Harris did not feel safe un-
til the last train was in tonight,
and he knew that there was no
possibility of an opponent slipping
a name in.
With X. G. Pleasant having op-
position for attorney general, and
he taking the precaution not to
file his application on Friday, the
18th, Mr.. Harris, of course, did not
know what was liable to happen,
and he and Mack-Mack, you
know is his faithful hunting dog
would saunter down today from
the superintendent s Office. on the
second floor, to the secretary of
states office to see if any other
name had been entered in that
blank space under the heading
"candidates for superintendent of
education. But as the days
work closed and there were no en-
tries. Mr.. Harris felt confident
that Friday, the 18th, was the COM
bination that would win.
The state Democratic ticket was
completed today with exception of
the declarations from State Sena-
tor Bob O'Connor, Of Algiers, and
"A. E. Hebert. candidate for sec
retary of state.
Mr.. O'Connor came in at the
eleventh hour candidate against
Colonel Pleasant for attorney gen
eral, and the news Of his entry
was general surprise in political
circles.
At midnight tonight, when the
secretary of state closed his Office,
the following was the completed
ticket:
For United States Senator
(1913 Term)-A. P. Pujo, Robert
F. Brousard, j. Y. Sanders.
For United States Senator

IS AVIATION DANGEROUS?

1t is probable that everybody
considers aviation dangerous
thing. For every death that has
been caused by aviation the news
papers save carried long stories
on the front pages under flaring
head lines and followed with pic
lures and stories Of the dead avia-
tor. In the United States there
are now hundreds and hundreds
of aeroplanes flying every day,
and nothing happens to the flying
man. 1t is quite difficult, if not
wholly impossible, to obtain statis-
tics which will show the aviation
death rate, that is to say, the ratio
of those killed to those who fly.
If the newspapers should display
in large type and with great de-
tail the deaths caused by mumps
the chances we would all become
very much frightened and consid-
jer mumps a very dangerous dis
ease. It remains to be proven
whether aviation is a cause of more
deaths in proportion to the num-
Der who fly than are the railroads.
A point which is worth consid-
ering in accounting for the dan
gers of aviation is that in nearly
every case where accidents have
happened the aviator was at
tempting some feat new to the
aviator. In the case of Ely we
find that he was endeavoring to
make a spectacular descent and
he lost his life. The death Of
Hoxey resulted from an attempt
to break the altitude record. The
death of practically every avia-
tor thus far has been the result Of
some deviation from the beaten
paths of aviation. We have few
instances of aviators being killed
while they were flying in a con-
servative manner and we have no
doubt that, if the figures could be
obtained, it would be found that
the death rate of aviation is not
'reater than the death rate
caused by mumps or measels or
numerous other causes of death
with which we are more familiar.
Some writer's have taken the
matter so seriously as to discour-
age further development Of avia-
ton because of the dangers and
there has been cast upon the
whole endeavor to conquer the
air a feeling that it is not worth
the cost. We haven't exactly
figured what the cost is and GER
tainly have not reached even an
estimate as to what the benefits
and rewards will be, so there is
no way of forming an opinion as
to whether the sacrifice of life
has been excessive. One big
thing which shows through the
whole fabric of aviation is that
the consistent, conservative flyer
who goes in for straight flying
lives to fly again. Nearly all the
dead aviators were men with an
abormal desire for breaking rec
ords and thereby acquiring fame.
There may be less money in the
operation Of the aeroplane on
conservative lines but there is
vastly less danger and We might
as well discourage the automobile
as a means of l0comotion and trans
portation because some racers
have been killed as to discourage
flying because few hot-heade] ]
young men took a fatal risk
When We get over experimenting
with flying it is probable that il
will be found a safer method o.
travelling than by railroads. au
tomobiles or water craft.-Beau

THE WIND AND THE FLOWERS.

Miss Buttercup and Miss Daisy were
having quiet little chat together.
They were great friends and loved
nothing better than to be together.
Presently, however, their quiet con-
versation was Interrupted.
Him. said some one, "pity you two
don't spend a. little more time in
smartening yourselves up instead of
wasting time talking
"Smartening ourselves up?" said
timid little Miss Daisy, in flutter of
nervousness. ''B-but don't want to
be smart. I shouldn't know what to
to do with myself If I wore any other
frock but this simple white one"
And as for me-" said Miss Butter
cup, who wasn't quite so retiring and
nervous as her friend, why, wouldn't
change my golden gown for any grand
frock in the whole wide world"
"Oh, your frocks are all right in
their way!" answered the voice, which
belonged to Miss Dandelion. 'But I'd
like to know If either of you ever saw
such beautiful yellow hair as mine?
That's what makes me look SO smart,
I know
And she tossed her head, and swayed
in the summer sun, so that her bright
yellow hair caught the light, Miss But
tercup and her friend said nothing.
They weren't bit jealous, because
they we're quite satisfied to stay quiet
ly on in their own little corner, and
enjoy the suns light and warmth.
But after some time, the Wind came
busting by, and then a dreadful thing
happened! Miss Dandelion's beautiful
hair which, by the way, had grown
white was suddenly blown right
away, and scattered in all directions.
"Oh, what pity" sighed little Miss
Daisy.
Cant be helped" piped the Wind,
Tive heard her boasting 50 often about
her beautiful yellow hair that felt it
my duty to teach her a lesson"
And away he went, Whistling cheer

lestly bowed their heads as he passed.

The tide of Eternity touches and laves.
Light issues from stars; from the

Tangle the feet that above them pass.
And we, weary mortals, with many a

Stare at the silent Sybils on high.
Stare at the earth beneath US, and ask
Is this the end of tn appointed task?
Cold are the Sybils and silent they
look
Over the page of the tragic book,
Written beneath them in black and

The labor of day, and the sins of night.
Cold are the graves, and they silent
cape
Where the wild tendrils the tomb
stones drape.
Yet, bark to Voice which the silence
breaks,
God no account of the silence makes.
He who hath joined shall sunder

Hid in the sky, and beneath the grass
The sky is unbarred, and death I'M

THE TRUE FRIEND.

A blessed thing it is for any man
or woman to have a friend; one hui.
man soul whom we can trust utterly;
who knows the best and the worst of
us. and who loves us, in spite of all
our faults; who will speak the honest
truth to us, while the world fatters
us to our face, and laughs at us be-
hind our back; who will give us coun.
sci and reproof in the day of pros.
perity and self-conceit; but, who
again, will comfort and encourage us
in the day of difficulty and sorrow
when the world leaves us alone to
fight our own battle as we can. II
we had the good fortune to win such
a friend, let us do anything rather
than lose him. We must give and
forgive, live and let live. If ou1
friends have faults, we must bear
with them. We must hope all things
endure all things, rather than lose
that most precious of all earthly pos
sessions-a trusted friend.
