An Excellent Address.

OF the many excellent address,
es delivered at the Parish Fair,
or Exhibit, none Tin the writer's
opinion) was more instructive
and far reaching in it's purpose
than that of Mr.. Geary, Govern
ment Entomologist, now conduct
ing an experiment with the boil
Weevil for and in behalf of the
United States at Colonel J. J.
Thompson's plantation, near this
city.
He treated the subject with
great clearness and simplicity.
His announcement was, we have
the boil Weevil and have him in
abundance. The question ar
rises, How destroy, how get rid
of him?"
This government employee
furnished the method. The
writer was so much impressed
with the gentleman's address,
that he requested him to reduce
it to writing whereby he might
reproduce it in the columes of
this paper. There being a much
larger crowd in Opelousas on
Saturday afternoon, Mr.. Geary
was prevailed upon to repeat his
address of the previous evening,
which he did to a large and at
tentive audience.
