at least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in

Halls Catarrh Cure is the only

medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, re-
quires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and

The Louisiana Press

resented the old idea of govern
ment by property instead OF gov
eminent by men. Many men Of
splendid personal character have
held this view; and we mean no
disparagement of the dead when
we say that it is fortunate that
the world is fast moving away
from this position.
The war between Turkey and
the Balkan States has been one
almost uninterrupted series of
victories for the latter. The al
lied armies are nearing Constan-
tinople and the Turks have asked
the powers to intervene. The
Balkan States insist that they
will settle with Turkey without
outside interference. In this
position, they will likely have the
backing of Russia. It is easy to
sympathize with the allies in
their contention, since the thous-
ands Of Bulgars, Serbs, Alban-
ians and Greeks now in Turkish
territory are related to them BY
race as well as religion. and the
prosecution and oppression of
these Christian tribes by the
Turks is primarily responsible
for the war. Time and again the
Powers have joined together to
assure Turkish aogarignity over
these people, at the same time
laying out programs of reform
which have never been carried
out, and exaeting pledges which
have not been kept.

Why We Aren't Developing
Real Actors.

In an article in the November
American Magazine the writer
on theatrical topics in that peri
odical says:
IF you kept an appren-
tice at making nothing but win
dow frames, would Won expect
him to learn to build a house, to
become a real carpenter? Would
you expect him to develop re-
sourcefulness, to acquire mas
terry of his trade? Of course you
wouldn't! Yet that is exactly
how we have expected to de-
velop actors-and we haven'td de-
veloped them. A year ago the
daughter of 8 Well-known New
Yorker went on the stage. She
did not join a stock company,
p~referring to play in New York
all winter with a prominent star.
Her part consisted of doing a
a brief dance. Is it likely that
she knows any more about act
than she did when she
started? Not a bit! Her year
has been practically wasted. In
a stock company she might have
played fity-tWo parts, and really
some rudiments of her
profession"

VALUE OF
COTTONSEED AND
COTTONSEED
MEAL

Is it a fair exchange between
cottonseed at SIS to $40 ton and
eottonseed meal at $27 ton? If
the seed and meal are compared
on the basis of their fertilizer
values, then one pound of cotton
seed meal is equal to two pounds
of cottonseed, or SIS a ton for
seed is about equivalent to $50 a
ton for meal.
# they are compared on the
basis Of their feeding values,
then one pound of cottonseed
meal is about equivalent to I.6
pounds of seed, or SIS a ton for
seed is about the same as $28. 80
for a ton of meal.
In comparing these values,
however, several additional facts
must be considered. The cost De
hauling the seed to market should
be deducted from the seed, as
the net price actually received;
and the cost Of hauling the meal
to the farm must be added to
show the net cost Of the meal.
On the other hand, cottonseed
meal is more convenient to hand
le as q fertilizer, and the plant
foods it contain are more readily
available. When used as feed,
q larger amount of nutrients may
be fed Of the meal than of the
seed, because when a large
amount of seed is fed, the excess
Of oil is apt to disturb digestion
and cause securing of the animal.
It would, therefore, appear that
S18 to $40 a ton for seed is d fair
price, when meal is sold for SGT
a ton, If we Judge by their fer
tilizing and feeding values; but
it does not follow that SIS to $50
is all the mills can afford to pay
for them. These viii depend on
the price of oil as much or more
than on the price at which they
sell the meal. The oil is worth
nothing for fertilizer, and while
it is worth some thing for feed,
there is more Of this than Is need
ed to balance the ration. There
is no reason, however, why the
farmer should give the oil to the
oil mills for less than its real
value, because it happens to be
of no value as a fertilizer and he
cannot use it economically as a
feed. The oil mills in paying
S18 to $40 for cotton seed may be
paying all they can afford, but
the point we wish to make is that
the price Of seed should be based
on the price Of oil as well as on.
the price of meal and hulls.

In the small cracks Of a
newspaper is sometimes found
two and three line paragraphs
that contain the kernel of news.
They are not played up, and
are used in a hurry by the make
up as a filler" just in one of
these cracks we found a special
to the States from Meridian,
Miss. It stated that single
handed, Major Greer, a negro.
enacted the role Of sheriff and at
the point of i gun brought Caille
McClelland to jail here Monday
and turned him over to the au-
thorities. McClelland is charged
with shooting to death Bob Har-
vey, another negro, in a quarrel
in a gambling game Sunday
night near the boundary of Kem-
per and Lauderdale counties.
This is surely a piece of news
that warrants playing up" by
the headline prognosticator, for
it is a rare thing for a negro to
play the part of an officer and
see that the laws are enforced.
In most cases when an officer APP
proaches the coFored citizen for
information he becomes as dull
as a mummy, and is unable to-
render any assistance whatever
in the detection Of the criminal.
Major Greer. in our opinion, is
entitled to a Carnegie medal, or
else the officers of the law
throughout the South should
chip in and see that he is
properly medalized for doing an
act that 999 out Of a thousand
refuse to do.
The Majors act should be imi-
tated by the colored population.
