LOUISIANA RECEIVING MUCH
PROMINENCE.

We received this week a cop,
of an entire page about the great
resources of Louisiana which up
upeaied in recent edition of the
Manufacturers Record at the in
stance of the Illinois Central
Railroad.
| In the spring of 1898 in a wide
~ published interview the editor
of the Manufacturer Record, who
| had just returned from Louisiana
, said:
"For several years the country
has heard great deal about
swamp reclamation as one of the
most important problems before
us and of far greater prospective
value than the vast irrigation
plans of the National Government
in the semi-arid West. But in
Louisiana the question ig more
one of the reclamation of wet
prairies or overhowed land rather
than of swamps. though eventual
ly swamp drainage will doubtless
be carried out there, as well as in
other States.
These wet prairie lands cover
several million acres and stretch
for mile after mile as level as the
prairies of the West. For years
they were regarded as valueless,
but with modern ditching and
|oisair.ing machinery. like great
steam shovels, it has been found
that this land can easily be
drained, and the Importance of
this as a national asset is readily
seen when it is stated that as soon
as drained it is worth 800 an
acre. and will yield the biggest
kind of returns on that value. :"
1T is estimated that these over
flowed lands Of Louisiana when
reclaimed will add $70O,OOO,OOO to
the wealth Of that State. Adjac-
ent sugar lands Of the same char
acter are worth 5000 an acre.
ut is probabl. the richest
land in the world, and yet after
one blowing only il is as soft and
friable as the lightest loamy land.
ut has been thousands Of years
in the making and is the accumu-
lat'en Of silt brought down by
the Mississippi river during un-
numbered centuries and of vege-
table matter.
1t has been tested for thou
sand feet in depth without change
from the same character as at the
surface. In one place the drill
went into IN oak log at depth
of $50 feet. and from a depth of
about 400 feet an acorn in a good
state Of preservation was brought
up. The drainage canals are
about 30 feet wide and 6 to 8 feet
deep, and all connect with some
of the bavous or rivers to carry off
the surplus water, while smaller
laterals. or bitches, connect with
the main canals.
Why is it that every lady who
gets into Jail is described as "a
beautiful young society womani"
Press.
Because that is the class of wo-
men who generally frequent the
divorce courts, many of whom
finally wind up" in Jail. Wo-
men who stay at home and attend
strictly to their domestic duties,
very rarely ever get into trouble.

and the United States as the Fourth
OF July is now observed in America
For the first time in history, repre-.
sentatives of three of the greatest
and most powerful nations of the
earth have agreed to submit all
their persistent differences to an
International court Of justice. Never
before have so-called questions of
national honor been included as
fit subjects for ANYTHING but the
arbitrament of battle,
Not only these treaties tend, ifrati-
fed by the Senate, to the abolition
of war; they will also work toward
the abandonment of arbitration
itself, as the President has pointed
out, for they are not arbitration
treaties, but Adjudication" treaties
The difference is important. A
question submitted to arbitration is
generally question compromised.
Neither party gets all that it asks,
although abstract justice may be all
on one side. The new treaties, on
the contrary, will do for national
controversies what the civil courts
now do for differences between indi.
viduals. A great impartial court Of
the nations-the Hague tribunal
will consider each case on its merits
The hope that Japan also will
become party to this great move.

THE big cities are changing the
climate and are greatly responsible
for the recent extraordinary hot
wave, according to Reginald Phelam
Bolton pre-ident of the American
society of heating and ventilating
engineers. The assertion was made
at the convention of the engineers at
the Hotel La Sale He used New
York to explain his position. Zero
temperature has been infrequent for
many years in that city," said Mr..
Bolton, ''and unknown since 1904
At the same time the rainfall has
decreased four inches since 1903 and
the number of cloudle,s days has
increased from 96 to ia. There is
nineteen million tons of coal or its
equivalent in other fuels consumed
i'll this city each year Adding this
TO the animal heat from 5000 per-
sons, equivalent to about $4,000
tons Of coal annually, and the va
rious other sources of heat, including
heated gases, radiation and friction
of various sorts, and the result is to
heat the air for distance of mile
beyond the city limits to a point
several degrees above its normal
temperature. The daily volume at
these gases rising from the city of
more than 175,000,O00 cubic feet,

is statement recently made by L.
H. Burge, Il member of the State
Tax commission. This statement
was made in discussion of some in
creased levies recently made. Com
missioner Burge believes that the
way to get increased revenues is not
by making increased levies, but by
getting all prop,r rty in counties
upon the tax books. This, he holds,
will create sufficient revenue to meet
the demands of the state, while
every increase drives just that much
