HOSPITALITY TO STRANGERS.

A party Of prospectors in Wilkinson
county are reported as having been
treated with discourtesy by some of
the natives, who showed the strang-
ers very plainly that outside people
were not wanted there. In recent
issue of the Woodville Republican,
some of the leading men in the coun-
ty publish a communication repudiat-
ing the discourtesy and the position
taken. They could do no less, for if
there ever was a time, when hospital
ity to strangers is not only virtue
but an actual necessity it is at present
when the possibility of ian angel una.

any stranger, who is willing to come
among us and work, proves himself an
angel by the mere act alone.

TRY SOMETHING ELSE.

Senator Ransdell in deprecating di-
vision of interest among the people as
to what sort of help they want for re-
lief from floods in the Mississippi Val
lev is careful to insist upon relief by
way of the Ransdell-Humphreys bill.
He is like the reltgionist who plead
for church unity,-to be brought about
F.. by every one joining his church. So,
Senator Ransdell sees but one way OF
salvation for the big river, his way.
Since every one is like that, no one is
in a position to throw the first stone
at Senator Ransdell.
So long as the world stands, at least
40 long as human nature remains what
it is, every proposition will be met by
differences of opinion, suggested by
conflict of interests. The all.levee
theory means SO many big plums for a
large number of people that it will al
ways have strong adherents, and these
will be strengthened all the more since
there is sufficient merit in the all
levee theory to command some sup
port from the disinterested also.
But it seems that this theory has
certainly been tried long enough to
awaken a desire for experimentation
along other lines, as it is evident that
the levees do not give complete relief
and safety. Senator Ransdell should
refrain from showing the spirit of the
poor French lady's faulty English
when she exclaimed: 81 will drown,
nobody shall help me-" For that is the
spirit of the all-leVee people. They
know they will drown, and are not
willing for any one to help them ex-
cept by levees.
The real sufferers are ready to take
any sort of help that offers, not only
the levees, which they have tried and
found, to some extent, wanting, but
outlets, reservoirs, anything that will
give relief.

SELLING THINGS.

The following paragraph from the
Brookhaven Leader is quoted for the
sake of making a few remarks. But
first read the paragraph:
"a heart-sick individual from the
country came shambling into The
Leader office. I've got wagon-load
O. pertaters, | can't sell to nobody |
ask 50 cents per bushel rather than
take EN- back home and they won't
have 'em at that The old man told
the truth as far as it went, perhaps.
In three minutes more we sold his po-
tatoes for him over the telephone! He
had but six bushels in his 'wagon-load,'
but his 'critter ratified the yehickle' all
the way back home and he couldn't
say You can't sell nothin' in Brook
haven "
The remarks are these:
/. You will observe that the tele-
phone made the sale.
2. Had the farmer had telephone,
with carefully selected list of people
of whom to inquire, he could have sold
the potatoes before he left home, and
would most likely have gotten a bet
ter price. Since they use wire fences
for telephone wires out West, and SO
long as posts and labor are as plenti.
full as they are here, there is no need
for farmer to say he cannot afford a
telephone. When sales are made by
telephone, delivery of country produce
can be made in half the time.
In this regard Southern farmers are
not only failing to take advantage Of
the telephone in Selling things" but
they are slow to avail themselves Of
the parcel post. Who among you is
buying or selling through this excel
| lent medium? Mrs. Farmer, how many
pounds of butter, how many dozens o.
fresh eggs and dressed chickens are
you sending by parcel post to the city
groceries that cater to the trade of thu
wealthy, or the fine residences on the
city avenues? The best prices, ever
as the demand for the best produce
come from these sources. Are yol
availing yourself of it?
Statistics say, you are not.

THE WHITE SPARROW.

In Jack London's latest book "The
Valley of the Moon he gives the fable
of the white sparrow to this effect: A
farmer was told of the existence of
strange bird, white sparrow, which
few about the fields at break of day,
and which, if caught and tanned, would
bring health and wealth to it's possess
or. The farmer eager for these bless
ings, would rise betimes in quest of
this wonderful white sparrow. He
never got even a glimpse of it, but ris-
ing as he did so soon, when nature pre-
sented itself as a picture, unshadowed
by the movements of human beings, he
saw so many things that required at
tention, and found so much more time
to do them, that prosperity nested on
his premises, If the white sparrow
did not.
The moral is obvious. Let him take
| it to heart who needs it most. The
farmer whom the sun finds in bed
should at once begin search for the
white sparrow that brings prosperity
in its train
But frankly speaking, except in the
case of the so-called gentleman farm
er, late rising is not a fault of the aver
age countryman. Most farmers keep
appointment with the rising of the
sun-and get there first.
The white sparrow which he needs
to find is that magic one which will
give him broadness of mind: the dis
position to welcome new ideas. All
who have worked and are working for
the upliftment of agriculture, in scope
and profit, find their greatest draw.
back in the farmers, who reject and
despise all new suggestions as being
but the unfounded vagaries fof "book.
larnin." They will not believe the re.
suits of experiment in laboratory OF
field made by experts.
The white sparrow of travel is what
such men need. To go about more. To
exchange views, not with Sam Ander
son, who owns farm just across the
road and whose ideas are already
known, and who is shiftless besides
but to see with ones own eyes what
men, who have succeeded can do. A
prominent official once said to the
writer: What would benefit this com
munity more than anything else would
be to send a party of wide-awake men
each year, through the North and West
to see what others are doing along
their line of work"
More travel, even short distances tc
fairs and experiment stations will &C
complish much. Would that every
farmer could believe that a magic
white bird can be found at each OF
these institutions. He would be rich.
er in pocket, and broader of mind as a
natural consequence.

STATE WILL ASK FOR BIDS ON
LONG TERM BONDS.

The State will ask for bids on the
long term serial bonds to be submit
ted to the State board of liquidation,
on Monday, December 8.
This was decided upon at meeting
of the State board of liquidation held
Tuesday evening, after an all day
session.
There was some difference of opin-
ion among the board members at first
as to whether it would not be best to
exercise the rights given the board I'M
der the provisions of the new consti-
tuition, and advertise for bids for the
long term bonds and the short term Sc
curities, both at the same time, but
the final decision was that it would be
best to offer the long term serial bonds
bonds which bear four and one-half per
cent interest, and for which the State
now believes there can be found a
market DIT LnlS IlHlS.
Under the new constitutional pro-
vision the board of liquidation has to
ask for bids for the sale of the serial
bonds, but does not have to advertise
for bidders for the short term paper,
and in the event satisfactory bid for
the long term so year serial bond is
not secured the State still, in emer.
gency, can float the short term paper
at the market rate of interest.
The members of the board believe
that there will be bidders, and salts.
factory bidders for the serial bonds
on December 8, when bids must be fill
ed in Baton Rouge.

MORE ON HIGH COST OF LIVING

Sabine Banner:
1t should be apparent to every one
that there is little hope for reduction
in the high cost of living until more
foodstuffs are produced. If Sabine
parish produced enough foodstuffs to
supply the needs of it's own people the
problem would be solved. AS it is, it
takes all the products of the parish to
pay for imported supplies. Things that
could be produced in excess of our own
needs right here at home, such as
meat, meal, butter, eggs and canned
fruits and vegetables, are imported in
enormous quantities. In the aggre-
gate the only surplus wealth is that
produced by the timber industries.
The present situation demands the
best thought of the farmers. The old
haphazard methods of farm produc-
ton must be discarded and the farm
made to yield surplus, a substantial
profit, instead of merely aiming to
come out even" every year. In 9TH
er words, the farmer must turn his
attention to raising more varied crops
and more and better live stock-run
his farm on stricter business sys-
tem-and keep books.

The people of Louisiana should feel
more than a passing qualification over
the harmonious session of the consti-
tutional convention, which closed last
week. The absence of factionalism,
the unanimity of interest in the work
to be done, its accomplishment with
out petty friction are indications Of a
broad public spirit. The recognition
of N. c. Blanchard, without doubt one
of the brainiest men of Louisiana, is
not the least of the achievements of
the convention.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE EDITION.

The Woman Suffrage edition Of the
Baton Rouge State-Times, on Satur.
day last, was interesting as a woman
suffrage edition. By that we do not
wish to imply that it was not inter
esting in any other particular, because
it was, but it's most remarkable fea.
ture was the restraint shown by the
suhragists in not using their opportu.
nifty for the propaganda of their views.
There was much said on other topics,
indeed all other topics, interesting to
women of all sorts of tastes and opin-
ions, were exploited As an example
ef broadness of view it is therefore
particularly creditable.
In criticism, one might deprecate
the length of many of the articles,
showing the strain of the amateur,
who had not yet learned the news
paper trick of condensation. 1t is
also a pity that the State-Times' make
up man was not restrained from his
pet rule of putting lads" in the society
columns. If anything can make a pa
per look neutrality-suspicious. towny
it is that. The ladies should have
worked their wills, for a day at least,
and banished the ads. We will not be-
lieve that they willingly fell victims
so soon to commercialism.

A PAN-AMERlcAN EXPOSITION.

The project of Pan-American Ex-
position at New Orleans in 1916, to
cost five millions of dollars, is breach
ed, and is received with the greatest
apparent enthusiasm by the citizens of
New Orleans. 1t will probably be re-
ceived with favor by the business
men of Louisiana and the states adj
joining. While the exposition idea
along the usual lines, has been work
ed dry, it is quite possible, since there
continues a popular demand for expo
sitions, that one at New Orleans could
be made unique and therefore very
attractive.
Will the people of New Orleans and
Louisiana get together, combine their
forces, to produce this result? 1t is to
be hoped that they can and will. The
mere effort will in itself be great
achievement for progress.
The newspapers of Louisiana, it is
needless to say, will do their part, as
they always do in every public enter
prise. Could the cooperation of other
branches of enterprise and industry be
as well-assured, success would be 6
fore-gone conclusion. The newspapers
will in this also do much in arousinG
general enthusiasm.
