lCleyeland Leader.(

A great many girls-more than
the world supposes-don t marry
because they arc never asked. It
is not because they are inferior in
any way to the more favored
ones, if marriage can always be
called good fortune. They are
often brighter, prettier, more
practical, fully as loving and in
all ways eminently fitted to make
fond wives and devoted mothers.
They are just overlooked in the
general rush.
Although the romantic cling
strenuously to the belief that love
is heaven-sent, devoid of earthly
alloy ordinary common sense
shows that propinquity is great
factor. Young people who are
thrown together in the ordinary
relations Of life, in business, in So
ciety, in church, we among them

matter Of association. And where
there are too many girls there are
not enough men to 60 around.

LoREAUvILLE NOTES.

THE long prevailing dry spell
is surely being felt by the people
of this section as drinking waSer
is very scarce, nearly all OF the
cisterns in Loreauville and vicin-
ity are empty.
The cane farmers in this section
were surely disappointed this year
in the tonnage Of sugar cane per
acre, stubble yielding from three
to five tons per acre and plant
cane from seven to nine tons per.
acre. The tonnage of sugar cane
per acre is below the record OF any
year in the history of the crop II
this section.
The short tonnage and the ruin
Gus prices received for their cane,
will have the influence of driving
many small farmers of this Sec
ton out Of that branch OF agri-
culture for many years to come.
Many Of these farmers are talking
about planting a large acreage in
cotton next year.
We would advise those who
contemplate planting cotton next
year to secure an early variety.
One of the earliest varieties is the
Mebane. It is said, that it is
much earlier than the Simpkins
and the King Improved and more
prolific. The boll Of the Mebane
is very large and easily picked
and does not shed its foliage,
forms and bolls as readily as the
Simpkins or the King Improved
and the yield is about forty per
cent in lint, which is surely very
encouraging to the cotton planter.
There were a few farmers in
our Parish, who tried the Mebane
seed cotton this year and they
speak very highly Of the results
obtained. It is also said that If
the Mebane seed cotton is plant
ed during the latter part OF
March or in the beginning OF the
month Of April, that the bolls will
mature and open ninety days aft
er the cotton is planted.
The Mebane seed cotton is also
a safeguard to the third genera
ton Of the boil weevil, which ar
rives in July and which is the most
destructive generation Of the boil
weevil family. A Mr.. Duperier
Of New Iberia has some Of the Me-
bane seed cotton for sale.
1t is up to the farmer now to find
q remedy to cure all Of his ills
and the only and surest remedy
lies in discontinuing the one crop
system and diversity his crops and
raise more Of those crops that 60

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

They do not allow working to
interfere with going to school In
Hammond, Indiana. Special ar
rangemenls are made whereby
boys and girls may work half a
day in certain commercial estab-
liehlnents and attend school the
balance Of the day. Hammond is
a manufacturing community,
where the temptation to boys and
girls is stron~ to leave school and
earn a living. Superintendent
McDaniel's plan makes it possible
for boys and girls to earn money,
re main in school, and also make
themselves more efficient indus
tria'ly.
The plan at Hammond is based
on a full realization OF modern
social and industrial conditions.
Superintendent Mcdaniel proceeds
on the theory that while there are
certain general principles under
living all education, each commun-
itv has it's own special problems
that are too often disregarded in
the making Of the schools. Be-
sides the cooperative school and
shop arrangement, Hammond
maintains night school with an
attendance of 100, where boys and
girls may not only make up ele-
mentary DEFICIENCIES, but also re-
ceive practical training in specific
phases of commerce and industry.
Vocational guidance forms
another feature of the Hammond
plan. The schools furnish infor-
nation about the various indus
tries in the community the sal
aries paid in different lines of
work, the opportunities for adj
vancement, hours of labor, perm
anenoy of employment, and all the
details that are of value In de-
termining choice of employment.
As early as the sixth grade the
teacher tests the child's interest
and ability in various forms OF
elementary industrial work, 80
that he may come to have some
idea of q future vocation. The
school authorities also maintain
al employment bureau where
pn esent and former pupils are reg
isthred and their qualifications
carefully investigated. Beau

POLL TAXES.

Tomorrow ushers in the last
month of the calender of 1872 and
its advent prompts us to say few
words relative to Poll Taxes.
Heretofore it has been a practice
for the candidates to secure a list
of partisans and to pay this tax,
hoping Gotten vainly) to be REIN
bursed at some later date. This
practice while convenient to many
has resulted in indifference and
negligence Of the part OF some,
So that this year, with no inter-
ested candidates in the field, col
lections in this department prom
Use to fall short. The Tax Collec-
tor informs us that, up to date,
only about 200 of the 27O0 poll
taxes due in this Parish have been
paid and that less than rs voters
Of this City have discharged this
debt 70 the school funds, although
over 1000 are to be accounted for.
1t would be well for our citi-
zens to remember that although
no Pal ochial election is in pros
pect for several years, there is to
be an all important one IN this
City in June next when a Mayor
and two Commissioners are to be
chosen to put into execution the
reforms provided in the Charter
which will then go into effect.
The results Of this election will
mean much to New iberia and 1t
is not the knowledge, but the
duty Of every man to help IN the
selection Of those who are to
serve in the new City Govern
ment. And then again, be it re-
membered that a successor to
Hon. R. F. Broussard will have
to be elected in 1914 and that TO
participate in his choice, receipt
for this years poll tax will be re.
CURED.
Yearly, the month Of December
is a busy season in the Sheriff 8
Office and as it nears it's end. the
work grows apace, the last few
days being attended by a con-
slant rush Of those who seek to
discharge their Indebtedness to
State and Parish in time to save
unto themselves the penalties i'm
posed upon delinquents. The
Collectors department is in con-
sequence taxed to the utmost and
Interruptions at that time to issue
Poll Tax receipts impose hard
ships which could well be spared
the officials by the early payment
of that small tribute to citizen
ship.

the Federal Government to har-

is necessary to permit the use for
irrigation, for power and for dry
weather navigation Of the flood
waters that now go to waste III
destructive torrents, for the build
ing and maintenance of necessary
levees, and for other works OF a
protective nature. Its applica'
ton is general, and all of the
great rivers come within the
scope Of it's operations.
The conference will pass upon
the adequacy or .inadequacy OF
the specific appropriations pro-
vided for the Improvement OF
such rivers as the Mississippi, the
Ohio, the Missouri. the Sacrament
to, the San Joaquin, etc, and rec
ommend such changes in the
specific appropriations as seem
wise in the light Of the great flood
of last spring. No attempt will
be made to change the funda-
mental principle on which the
bill has been created. In this
way it is planned to safeguard
the interests Of those sections
needed levees, of those sections
needing water power and dry sea-
son navigation, and Of those sec
tons needing irrigation.
