illustrated BY laying piece Of rope on

his son, "but lay your az at the root of

out and laid his ak at the foot Of the
tree, like good and dutiful boy. and
then he went fishing. Truly there Is
nothing so beautiful as filial obedience.

The eggs Of the mosquito are fasten-

the insects body. From $50 to 300
eggs are laid at a time, and the little
boat shaped mass Is 90 constructed

sunk nor in any way injured by wind,

Putting Out a Fire.

PUTTING Out q Fire.
When trying to put out a fire re-
member that one gallon of water at
the bottom of the blaze will do more to
put it out than ten gallons at the top.
"Play low" Is the motto to follow while
fighting fire. A few gallons at the bot
tom of the flames will rise in clouds of
steam when the fire is rising and
quench 1t. A big blaze on the leewartl
side looks fearful. but play low with
the water on the bottom of the fire on
the windward side and you have the
speediest way to quench the flames
and will not require q river.

Fuel Economy

The Metz Weiss oil engine
installed at the power house is
exceeding exceptions in the fuel
economy. From a temporary test
the engine developed an average
of 81. 66 horse power for Is and
a half hour on 1896. 43 lbs of fuel
oil or a little less than three bar
rels. This means a saving Of
about twenty dollars for every
twenty-four hours run over the
old system. This particularly
solves the fuel question.

THE LINE.


The establishment of the Lou
isiana Traction & Power Com
pany with its line to pass
through O~pelousas means that a
rapid expansion of the city is as
sured, in part at least.
1t is a matter of common OBJ
servation that an interurban line
is one of the most quickening in
fuences that can be brought to
bear upon any sections develop
ment. It intensifes and spe-
cializes the work of the railroad
and promotes all those interests
on which a community's upbuild-
ing depends. We dare say that
an interurban trolley line, within
the first year of its operation
will, at least, double the value of
farm lands contiguous to its
right-of-way.
Not only in increased land
values, but also in a thousand
other ways, does the interurban
benefit the rural districts. It
places the farm in direct and
frequent communication with
the market and enables the
farmer to go to town and return
with little loss of time whenever
business or convenience requires.
Of recent years many agencies
and devices have been at work
to remove what was once the
isolation of farm life. The tele-
phone and the rural free delivery
of mail, the Improvement and
extension of roads, the automo-
bile and divers labor saving in
ventions for field and household
-aEl these are making the farm
life a more liyable place. None
of them, however, can prove
more effective than the inter-
urban trolley, which puts within
the farm family's easy reach all
the advantages of schools and
churches and neighborly inter-
course
It is the history of the inter-
railway that it not only
makes the central point larger
and stronger, but that it also en-
hances all the sections it touches.

It goes there is an awakening,
