much to injure the community

Our energetic young friend
and citizen, Mr.. Paul Doerle, en-
gagged in the chicken and egg bus
mess on an EXTENSIVE scale on
Charles Street, will from what we
understand, very shortly erect a
cold storage plant Of considerable
capacity. which he has found nee
essary for the success of his busl-
ness. His intention being to put
in cold storage hundreds of chick
ems which will be bought by hiln
and slaughtered as is done by
Western packing houses very sue
cessfully. Mr.. Doerle ships daily
hundreds of dozens Of eggs gath
cred from all over the Parish to
markets found by him as far off
as Cuba and has done much IN
stimulate the price Of eggs and
fowls. and consequently our
farmers have been much bene-
fitted by his thrift and industry
and should encourage him by rails
ing chickens and eggs sufficient to
supply the demand as created by
him. His success means also the
success of our small farmers, they
should encourage an enterprise Of
that nature.
We are pleased to note the
fact to our readers that Mr.. AL

ton to come this way, but is pre-
pairing to go after them, our press
rooms have been quite busy this
week getting out advertising mat
ter that he will distribute where
he thinks there is chance to in
terest families inl Iberia Parish
lands. These circulars. advertls-
ing the resources Of the Parish
will do much to make Known what
we have to offer to those seeking
homes in sc South. 1t is pity
that real estate dealers Of Iberia
would not work together and adj
vertise what lands are really on
the market on a large scale, pro
rating the cost between themsel-
YES, as we believe a good strong
advertising campaign, judiciously
done would be of much benefit and
result in colonies Of farmers set
Ting among uS that would
get from the soil all that it would
produce and at the same time slim
ulate our own people into prac-
tical. diversified farming.
