Weather and Crop Notes.

The weather for the past week
has been balmy and conducive
to field operations. Cane plant
ing is in order and complaints are
rife as to the condition of seed
canes in windrow. The majority
OF planters claim a loss of SO per
cent. What is the cause?
Some attribute the deteriora-
tien of the seed canes to the bo-
rers. others to the effects of the
September storm of 1909, and
still others lay the blame to the
premature cutting of the canes
reserved for seed. Be that as it
may, there is a reason for the
bad condition of the seed canes.
Won't some of our experienced
planters favor us with their
views, which would be of mate
rial interest to all

Register Births.
DR.. Oscar Bowling, president of
the State Board of Health, states
that a rigid enforcement of the
State law, which makes it COM
pulsory for parents to register the
birth of their children, will be
exacted. He says that the law is
practically ignored at present.
There is a penalty of $50 attach
ed to the failure to register. A
registrar, in every ward of the
parish, will be appointed, whose
duty it will be to report all births
to the parish officers. tits stated
further that a true list Of statis-
tics can never be computed until
all births are registered with as
great an accuray as deaths.
