until conditions are favorable.
Clay, gumdo or soil containing
little or no sand are worse in re-

humas in the soil is very desir-
able, and this brings up the i'm
portance Of returning all vege-
table matter possible and in such
shape that disintegration and de-
cay will be rapid. To repeat an
important fact. the disc harrow
is of more service to the farmer
IN cutting up and getting this
valuable matter back in the
ground than any other implement
he can use.
While the disc harrow is more
universally used than any other
one farm implement, except the
pillow, many of the uses to which
it might be put with large profit
to the farmer are little under
stood. Many Of the most sue
cessful farmers recommend disc

Seed Bed Prepara- .
ton By An Expert

Such crops as corn, sugar beet!
ETC., need plenty of room for roo
growth. For this reason, {
greater depth Of seed-bed is nee.
essary than for small grain.
For corn following corn, one
thorough discing before and an.
other after blowing is generally
sufficient. The smoothing har-
row may be run over to finish off
he work.
In regions of scanty rainfall.
more compacting is necessary.
The disc harrow set with gangs
nearly or quite straight will be
ound beneficial in this regard.
The top layer Of soil should be
eft as loose and fine as possible.
While spring rains are fire.
luent, discing before blowing
Ioosens the top soil and is an aid
ii surface evaporation.
Discing sod ground before fall
blowing for corn cuts the sod in
TO ribbons, making blowing much
easier. Less work is required to
settle the burrows and renew the
contact with the subsoil. Where
there is a heavy growth, discing
is a real necessity.
The best implement to use in
the spring i'll preparing fall-plow-
ed land for seeding, is a disc har-
row.
1t throughly pulverizes and
!oosens up the soil to a good
depth. When done at the right
time, one discing is very often
sufficient to make a fine seed
bed.
Flowing dried-out, surface
cracked land without first discing
it. is a prolifce source of clods.
The soil breaks from the mold
board in the Jumps outlined by
the large cracks. The furrow
slices will consist Of a succession
Of large chunks which are hard
to break up. A great amount of
work is necessary to get even a
fair seed-bed. Working the sur
face will not break up the clods .
in the bottom of the furrow nor
close the large air spaces. A
GOOD discing before blowing
heads off this trouble effectually. !
The disc harrow is the M i'm
plement that is of greatest asis-
lance in reducing clods. The

Shreveport, La, July If, 1912.-To
the President and Members of the
Police Jury of Caddo Parish: Greet
! ing: Your finance committee, to
whom was referred the account OF
! Drs. w. W. Smith and J. NJ. Boden-
heiner, beg to say, that after max
! ing diligent investigation Of the
merits Of the situation, do hereby
recommend the payment of SI6.!2
! (seventy-si1 and 72-i00) dollars; the
same to be paid to the city OF
Shreveport. In explanation OF our
course we wish to admit the agree

with the Mayer, J. Il. Eastman, III

THE LEGISLATURE.

The first session OF the Leelsla-
ture under the administration OF
Gov. L. E. Hail was ended Thurs
day night after midnight by the con-
stitutional limitation Of sixty days.
The majority of the representa-
tives had their first experience as
lawmakers, but they are no longer
novices. 1t is for this one OF several
reasons that the Caucasian has al
ways favored the return OF the men
who have been faithful and true.
However. when the Legislature is
called to convene in special or reg
ular session they will be no appren-
tees, but one and all will be full
fledged in law-making.
A cursory review of the work OF
the Legislature would indicate that
much good has been accomplished,
and while it was not possible to Sc
sure all the reforms promised the
people, the record OF accomplish
ment is creditable.
There were many bills offered
which fortunately were never en-
acted. After all, the measurement
should not be directed altogether by
what has been done as to by what
has not been done.
OF the bills which are responsive
to the promised reforms may be
cited the betterment Of the primary
election laws. This law has been
cured of several serious defects
which encouraged fraud. The Sc
crecy of the ballot has beer
strengthened and properly safe
guarded.
The settlement of the issue arts
ing over the refunding act is salts
factory and the credit of the State /:
to be maintained without any entan
clement with obligations which have
been listed as fraudulent or OF ques
tionable status.
A reform most urgent is prom
ised through the committee which Il
to be charged to a consideration O.
a revision of the assessments ant
the tax laws of the State.
It will not De denied that the as
sessed valuation of property Is un
equal in many respects and that |
advanced as its actual value SHOULD
dictate, there would follow create
revenue calIectible from taxation.
In the progress of this law-makln'
the Representatives from Cadd
were active and vigilant, and in n
invidious sense it may be said tina
Senator Leon R. Smith deveiope
into a leader of prominence IN tn
State Senate. It should also be sal
that Hon. l.. E. Thomas as speake
was alert te every requirement Q
his office and is entitled to the full
est share of credit and of glory TO
his accomplishment.
1t is in order to mention LIeuten
ant Governor T. C. Barrett, who wa
equal to every responsibility OF nj
office and who did his every dut
fairly and fully. He was guided b
The bests interests of the State.
