In the spring of 1913 there was
an overflow by Bayou de Glaize In
Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana, occur
ring In May and continuing until
early in June On one side of the Ba-
you a strip of land one mile long
and from eight to ten miles wide was
flooded. The leyee on the other side
of the Bayou retained the water Cot
ton was planted early on the one
side and late on the other. II has
furnished a large scale contrast be-
tween the two methods OF planting
in the same locality and on identi-
cal soil formations. Examinations
which have just been made by the
bureau OF Entomology show that a
crop Of half bale was made on
the side that was not overflowed
where the planting was early while
the opposite side which was late
planted yielded much less.

cured the land in 100 acre tracts as
homesteads.
An injunction against further cut
