for provisions. Already il has proved a
sharp object lesson Of the effect war would

bacon and other products has advanced

has not yet suffered seriously in this re-

upon this for success

be a terrible thing for the country. Suni-

course, will be kept going at all costs
She owners plan Is to lay up part OF the
ships and employ all the men who have
remained loyal TO the service on the others.
The vessels in port without engagements
will be the first laid up.

The Piano Contest.

1t is surely gratifying to the
public, to ourselves and to the
contestants to know that the
Era-Leader has been largely
instrumental in extending the
interest in the piano prize contest
that is being conducted by
Peoples Drug Co., who offer to
give a $500 Upton piano to the
lady polling the highest number
of votes by December 13.
The opportunity is seldom
given any one to obtain a prize as
free of cost as is now being
given. The method of awarding
the prize is unique, simple and
fair, Each contestant secures
votes which have been and are
being distributed by Peoples
Drug 20. in several ways,
namely: she secures those given
with each purchase at the drug
store, those that her friends
obtain, those that are allowed for
subscriptions, those given for the
sale of trading-b books and those
given for any other purpose as
inducements of trade. The girl
twenty miles away has the same
privileges as those close by and
can avail herself of means that
others neglect. The activity of
so many contestants, we are told,
is distributed throughout the
parish. The Era.Leader. while,
circulating among the principal
people of the parish, is now
reaching out systematically,

when a Republican paper who

for consideration justly earned,
they evade, by placing their own

it gets $4,000 or $4,000 worth of

SECRETARY WILSON
HONORARY PRESIDENT
U. S. Department Of Agriculture
In Barley and Hop Exhibition.

The secretary of state, the Hon. Phi
lander Knox, has sent out to the diplo-
matte and consular representatives of
the United States in foreign countries
a circular letter informing them that
an international brewers congress will
be held in Chicago. Oct. II to %, 1911,
and instrueting them to bring the mat
ter to the attention of the respective
governments to which they are accred-
tied, with the request that due pub
licity be given to the information and
that the respective parties in interest
be invited to participate in the con-
gress.
The circular further contains the In
formation that there will also be held
at the same time and place an interna-
tional prize exhibition for barley and
hops.
The secretary of agriculture In the
United States, the Hon. James Wilson,
Is the honorary president of the inter
national brewers congress.
The United States department of ag-
riculture is preparing an exhibit by
which the United States government
will be represented at the international
prize exhibition for barley and hops.
The department will show what has
been done by several of its experts
who have been for some years devot-
ing their time to the Improvement of
these crops.
The Importance of this exhibition for
the farmers who raise barley and hops
cannot be overIated. 1t is believed
that the first step is herewith taken to
bring about system of valuing these
important crops upon a basis of fact
rather than upon mere individual pref
erence and perhaps prejudice
