OSCAR RICH HOLDS
THE WHEAT RECORD

According to reports which County
Agent Cobb has received, Oscar Rich,
who lives near the county farm, prob
ably holds the record for a bumper
wheat crop. Statements by threshers
and several neighbors, including Jos.
Ratliff, who were present when the
wheat from Rich's sixteen-acre field
was threshed, are that the average was
sixty-three bushels to the acre. When
the men saw how the yield was run
ming up they thought the separator
might be registering wrong. so they
weighed the grain with the same re-
suits.
Rich's farm adjoins that of William
Grow who reported a yield of LOT
bushels for two acres.

AS TO REPRESENTATION.

The editor of the Morgan City Out
look clings to the impression that wo-
man suffrage implies an antagonlsm
between brother and sister, husband
and wife, father and daughter. There
is no antagonism, but neither is there
complete identity of interests between
any two human beings, and one per-
son can never entirely represent an
other. 1t is not however because there
is antagonism between the sexes in
their domestic relations that suffrage
for woman is so desirable, but that she
may in her various business relations,
into which economic conditions have
forced her, have representation at the
polls that will protect her. It is posi-
BILE in such case to suppose that the
father, husband or brother, that profits
either directly or indirectly by her
labor should wish to protect her. but
what about the somebody else's broth.

TOUCHING INCIDENT AT,
GETTYsB URG. ..., +

=
Although the, program of the celebra-
ton at Gettysburg did not begin till
July 2, there was a reception on Mon
day by survivors of Bufords division
of Meade's army and Wheeler's divis-
ion of Lees. The meeting was held in
the big tent set aside for speechmak-
ing and began fifty years to the hour
from the time when the first shot pre-.
ceding the battle was fired. The gray
cavalrymen who fought in skirmishes
that led up to the three days fighting
pledged themselves in the shadows of
the Stars and Stripes to forget" and
their brothers in blue swore by the
Stars and Bars that the fight was over
for all time.
There were several women from the
village in the tent, and six one-time
school girls, gray-haired and aged now,
sang rally Round the Flag, Boys"
while the veterans wept like boys, but
with pride The six women who sang
the battle song were among those who
thronged the streets of Gettysburg af-
tef the advance guard of the Southern
army left it fifty years ago. On that
night, when Buford's men came riding
into the village on the heels of Wheel
er's men in gray, maidens strewed
flowers along the streets and bells in
the churches pealed out the news of
the coming of the blue, and the town
went wild. OF all the scores of girls
who welcomed the vanguard of Meade
only half dozen could be found, and
they stood, white-haired, with tears in
their eyes, on platform in the big
tent and sang to the soldiers in the
seats below.
I'm afraid we can't sing like we
sang fifty years ago." said the woman
who acted as leader as she led the way
up the steps to the platform.
I'VE don't care; just sing again. y
shouted the veterans.
AS the first notes of the wartime
melody came from them in quavering
tones the veterans, both of the North
and of the South, sat quiet with eyes
fixed upon the singers. The hum OF
the chorus came from every side, and
the old men wept openly.

MARRIED fWoMENlAs TEACHERS


Without attempting to go into the
peculiar merits, pro or con, of the
question of the employment of mar
ried women aso. teachers alto Baton
Rouge we are glad that the outcome
is as tisa ON principle. No distinction
should be made adverse to woman,
becapsa5she is married, any more than
would be made concerning a mans
state, whether married or unmarried.
OF course there are circumstances
when 1t would not be desirable for a
married woman to have school duties,
or 1t might be shown that her home
duties conflicted with her teaching
But such are individual instances and
to be dealt with accordingly, just as
any man teachers particular delin.
quency would require attention. AS a
rule, married women teach because
they need to, as means of livelihood
and this being the case, usually have
others dependent upon them, hence
feel deeper sense of responsibility
and stronger incentive to give salts.
faction than the average unmarried
teacher does.
But regardless of these and all other
reasons, a teacher should be employed
ON merit and suitability without re-
gard to age, sex, or previous condition

UNFAIR TREATMENT.

Somebody is working an unfair polit-
ical, game on Senators Thornton and
Rapsdeh by the public disapproyal OF
their course at the proposed Fourth OF
July celebration at Ruston. yesterday.
Unfair, because if the people of North
Louisiana wanted the senators to pur-
sue a different course in Congress the
wish should have been expressed be
fore the event but the senators were
elected. as all Louisiana senator's be-
fore them have been, on the plain un-
Outstanding that they were to look af-
ter the interests OF sugar and during
the respective candidates. of Messrs,
Thornton and Ransdell this fact was
well understood. 1t is therefore dis
tinctly unfair for the people suddenly,
and without warning, to decide on q
different policy without notifying their
representatives, and after the latter
had committed themselves
IT looks extremely like certain
Louisiana Democrats foreseeing that
the deiuge has come, wish to save as
much from the wreck as possible: a
natural plan enough, but II becomes a
treachefons one when 1t is sought to
climb out over the submerged bodies
of their senator's, who only did their
duty according to pledge and promise
This paper is of the opinion that the
time has come for Louisiana Democ'
Hacy to align itself with it's party on

A POISON FOR FLIES.

Professor r. !. Smith, entomologist

says: "Formalin is a very successful
poison for flies in spite of many re

suits. The method that have found
most successful is the use of formalir
in milk with the following proportions

formalin; sixteen ounces Zone pint Of

I'm this proportion the mixture seems
to attract the flies much better than

mixture should be exposed in shallow

way serves to attract greater mum

DISPOSAL OF ROAD TAX MONEY

Fiorlua Parishes wants to know what
has become of the fund raised by the
road tar annually collected by the
State. We should wonder. 1t is sup
posed to be drawn upon by any parish
that contributes like amount to road
building, and doubtless the report of
such distribution of the fund is con-
tanned in the State Treasurer's and the
state Auditors biennial reports (Which
no one ever sees) but it is certain
that the bulk of the taxpayers go on
paying the tax with far less earning
than the occasional dime they send to

PREPARE FOR THE PARISH FAIRS.


Although several months intervene
before the time for the 1913 fairs, 1t is
by no means too earlyfor the different
parish organizations to begin prepara-
tons right now In fact, preparations
should be started without delay, if the
associations desire to make the parish
fairs big successes. 7oi H@iiSti '1'tt''
aiIIt is difficult to arouse enthusiasm in
the summer time, with the crops need
ing attention and the temperature of
suchc intensity as to make everybody
seek cool places, but Notwithstanding
the crops and the heat, enthusiasm
must be aroused. 1t is very necessary
in all earnest movements, and is es-
pecially needed in arranging for fairs.
The success of any fair depends prin-
cipally upon enthusiasm. With the
proper interest and enthusiasm on the
part of farmer and merchant and citi-
zen generally, theplans will be formed
and executed and the fair viii be a glo-
rious success. But lack of enthusiasm
will more than apt mean lack of a sue
