Winter Rice Crop of Bengal, l913-l4.

We have just received from the Director of
Agriculture Of Bengal, Calcutta, under date of
September 26, a forecast Of the winter rice crop
which is regarded Of considerable Importance
this season, as the summer season just passed
was unfavorable for the crop in West Bengal
and fair only in the East. 1t is estimated that
but little over ID millions Of acres are now in
rice, as against about Is millions previously, the
decrease being due to the unfavorable weather.
The normal area is something over Is millions
Of acres. In this western world of ours in
Louisiana it will be recalled that July and Au-
gust were comparatively rainy and now and
then with heavy floods and now comes the news
from the Far East of similar weather there
which did great damage to their rice crop. large
areas of the winter rice recently planted, or
transplanted as much Of it has been swept away
by the floods and had to be replanted after
wards. Injury by insect pests has been report
ed from some sections and the season on the
whole is unsatisfactory.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER %, 1918,
Shell Roads in Plaquemines Parish.

THE old adage is that a little leaven leaven-
eth the whole mass. The success of the shell
road on the East bank seems to be rapidly at
fecting the people of the West bank of the riv-
err and i~nclining them to tax themselves for a
shell road from Belle Chase down. The fact
that the modern automobile practically annihil-
ates distance, and to those who have them un-
der their control enables them to go and come
long distances in a very short space of time and
this is revolutionizing the road system of the
entire United States and we might say Of all
Europe also. Louisiana has perhaps been lag
ging behind the rest Of the world in this re-
spect, but the value of the roads that have been
built thus far have been so conclusive in respect
to their usefulness that the question on its mer-
it's seems scarcely now to need any debate. The
query would simply be can we afford the road
and how soon can we get it? The shell road on
the West side as far down as Pcinte a Ia Hache
would surely quickly be supplemented by anoth-
er one down as far as the Jump, through our
beautiful orange country.
An immense advantage to be Immediately
derived from these roads would be the possible
ity Of school consolidation and the employment
of several teachers in one building and in this
manner being able to give more thorough atten-
ton to the pupils than is possible now when
each teacher is expected to carry ON the small
schools by herself. teaching children all the way
from the primary grade up to the seventh grade.
This is really serious loss of labor. no matter
how excellent our teachers may be.
Another advantage Of the shell roads on
both sides of the river would be the accessibility
of the high schools which must come sooner or
later, one on each bank. There ought to be, a
high school on the East bank at Pointe a la
Hache and one on the West bank at Buras, or
at some point between Buras and West Pointe a
Ia Hache. The peculiar formation Of our parish
with it's 200 miles Of. coast line, makes it diff
cult to carr,eon ae effective educational affairs
as ourspeople desire, We are all doing the best
that We can aud these suggestions are simply
given with a view Of suggesting how the situa-
ton may be improved and particularly by the
Inauguration of these shell roads, which are
NOW in high popular favor wherever they have
come into use.

The Unit Of Usefulness.

TIE Introduction into the constitutional con-
vention now sitting of self operating anti trust
article has excited considerable commotion
among the friends of the many trusts that now
have their hands in the pockets of the people
and don't want their unholy combinations brok-
en- up. This man Perkins, who just escaped
arrest in connection with the Equitable Life In
surance abuses and who was dropped out of ].
P. Morgan & Co. s establishment because even
that leviathan butchershop scarcely felt as ag-
gressive as Perkins did, when he left the Nor
gan house organized the international Harvest
er Co. He combined FIVE or six of the greatest
agricultural implement manufactures in the
country. and apparently effected an alliance
with an additional three or four great corpora
tons, so that their prices or their territories
did not apparently interfere with each other.
Perkins talks of big business" It is a favor
lite phrase with him, and he holds that the big
business can get along tremendously where
erse interests would be competing with each
other to the destruction of all concerned. AS
the New York Evening Post puts it, Perkins
can get along very tremendously with himself,
just as the lion and the lamb got along harmon
iously with the lamb inside of the lion. The
big business Of his phrase is quite a taking
one and many very respectable persons say that
this is the day Of big business and that there

Every other State in the Union
