Rumor has it that Mr.. c. w.
George Of Beaumont, Texas, is ly-
ing at the point of death. 1t
will be remembered by many of
the old residents Mr.. George was
engaged in the cistern manufac-
turing business here for many
years and left New iberia a short
while after his plant was des.
troyed by fire. 1t is said that he
built up quite business in that
City.
Mr.. Leon Marie arrived home
last Friday from Brazil where
he had been for the past fifteen
months doing construction work
for new railroad which is being
built two thousand miles up the
Amazon river. On his return
home Mr.. Marie stopped in New
York where he was married and
thence continued his journey
here. The young gentleman will
remain here with his relatives
for some time.
Mr.. A. G. Barrow, proprietor
of the Alma House was the only
delegate from this City to attend
the Intercoastal Convention which
was convened at Orange, Texas,
last Thursday, pressing business
engagements preventing any OF
the other delegates appointed by
Mayor Fontelieu to be present at
the important gathering. Mr..
Barrow according to the Beau
mont papers was the first dele
gate to register his arrival in the
Texas town.
Mrs. Alpine Fontelieu was the
hostess of a bridge party, conf
plimentary to her house guest,
Mrs. j. b. LawtOn of Orlando,
Fla. A delicious luncheon was
served after the games. Among
the ladies present were Mes
danes Chas. Cultivate, A. }.
Suberbielle, A. j. Dupuy, F. &.
Blumenthal, Home Dupre and
Misses Irma Leblanc and Vir-
GINA Barrow. The prizes were
won by Mrs. Dupre and Mrs. Sub

The Ponchatoula (La.) Demo-
crat tells with delight that the
business men of that city contri-
buted $4,000 for advertising the
town in a pamphlet being gotten
out by the |. C.. II. r. Wesson
had the same experience two
years ago. The business men here
contributed $500 for a space in
the pamphlet advertising Wesson,
but if our town ever derived five
cents worth of good from the
$75 spent it never has been found
out. If the money had been
spent with the local newspaper
for space and extra copies to adj
vertise the town, much good
might have been the result. The
write-up Wesson had in the
pamphlet would make almost
quarter column in a newspaper.
For the $500 the local paper
could have given several col
umns and sent out many extra
copies, but the old saying "give
the people what they think they
want" seems to be popular yet.

You seldom find q saving fam

A family paying rent has no
special incentive to save, but the
family that buys a home has
special object to save Tor. They
at once realize that it is much
more important to save their mol

to waste it foolishly, and if they

Miss Anderson told the jury that
Faucette came into her life when she
was but fifteen years old. At that

GETS COTTON CROP CHEAPLY
Four Bales Of Staple Secured From
Three-Acre Field With Assistance
Of Bur Glover.

The clover and vetches are not only
great advantage to the corn farmer
as many of our farmers seem to think,
but equally as good for the cotton
farmer, writes ]. A. Boone in the Pro-
gressive Farmer. BY sowing the
clover early in the fall, or better still
IN late summer at the last cultivation
OF the crops. it will make a good
growth by the middle of April. at
which time it should be turned in or
der to get the land ready for the cot.
ton crop.
The cheapest cotton crop | ever
grew was planted after bur clover.
the first week in May. This clover
was sown in August at the last cul-
tiyation Of cotton. BY the middle OF
the following April this clover had
made a good growth. With two large
horses and a disk harrow thor
oughly cut to pieces this clover sod
and then with two-horse pillow, this
land was broken nine inches deep.
then ran over the land again with my
disk harrow to finish cutting I'D all
turf. Then with my lime spreader |
broadcasted 500 pounds of ground rock
phosphate per acre, which cost de-
livered SO per ton. Then was ready
for my smoothing harrow, after which
! ran my rows and planted my cot
ton.
At the time Of planting | put 200
pounds of my own mixing of fertilizer
per acre. which cost me about $l7 per
ton. ! put as a second application
fifty pounds of top-dresser, which was
all the fertilizer this cotton got.
The three-acre field. which was very
ordinary poor land, made me four
bales, weighing about 500 pounds per
bale.
With the aid Of weeder and SPRING
tooth harrow | was able to cultivate
this cotton at a very small cost, as
very little hoe work was necessary.

ing that they are excellent as table
fowls, and come nearer the flavor OF
the turkey than any other breed, they
are not popular in our American mar
kets from the fact that they dress a
white skin, and being of dark plumage
show black pin feathers. 1t is the
same with the Houdan and the Orping
ton.
Strange to say the American people
object to white skinned carcass in
chickens, and at the same time they
glory over the turkey and the duck.
both of which are white skinned birds.
This prejudice for color of skin is to
be lamented, as many a notable breed
is sacrificed for a mere fad.
In the growing of table poultry.
aside from the color of skin, it must not
be forgotten that flavor and plump
ness are secured by food, tenderness
by quick growth and lack Of exercise.
II is amusing to see the advocates of
new breeds advertising the fact that
their production is noted for the flavor
OF the meat and the desirable qualities
Of table poultry. The truth is that
1000 and care alone are responsible
for those conditions. We believe that
they can be combined with any breed

tidy quarters for the fowls, keep them
from overexercising themselves, and
fatten quickly, and the carcasses will

demand than farm raised ones. A
fowl at nine months Of age. raised on

HAS MACHINE TO CUT SKULLS
Doctor Demonstrates Electrical Ap-
paratus for Trepanning-
Reduces the Pain.

Chicago-Skull cutting by machin-
! cry is the latest development in era
NAL surgery. And a doctor in Chicago
is the inventor. A secret demonstra-
ton was given at a meeting of a
medical society and surgeons who
were permitted to witness the opera
ton are said to have been greatly
interested.
The machine is a cylindrical saw
operated at high speed by electricity
patient can be trepanned by this
method in fraction of the time re-
quired by the old chisel and hand
worked saw.
In emergency, It was stated, the new
machine can be attached to any kind
OF electric current. In cases requir-
ing instant operation it is claimed that
the new machine will save many pa
tients who formerly would have been
considered hopeless cases.
Its greatest usefulness, however, is
said to lie in the fact that the number
of operable cases will be increased to
include many whose weakness of heart
action would prohibit them from be-
ing anaesthetized long enough for op-
Grafton by the old method.
His electrically driven saw will ro-
tate at an exceedingly high speed, cut
ting at mere touch. so that In the
hands of a skilled surgeon the ire
panning operation will be relieved of
great portion of its danger.
The machine has not yet been tried
on a living subject. for the doctor
wanted an authoritative confirmation
of his own views.
