THE RIGHT WAY.

Adverse Legislation has ruined
the principal industry of South
Louisiana. 1t has deprecated
property values in spite OF the
fact that the property in an agri-
cultural way is tho richest and
most fertile in tho world. 1t has
brought dissatisfaotion and dis
couragemsnt. The future, no mat
ter how we try to brighten it, 10
somewhat OF q doubtful and I'M.
certain one.
The only sensible thing for tho
sugar farmers of tho State to do,
10 to raise tho things they need,
and to grow cane a. chsaply as
possible 40 their money crop it it
10 possible to do 90 for the next
two years. Quit sending away for
our meats, canned goods, fruits,
butter, lard, etc, etc, etc. We can
raise all of this right here and sell
it to our own people too.
1t comes right back to what We
have been preaching about during
the days of our prosperity - gst
everything at home and quit send
ing our hard cash to strangers who
are today giving us the go-by sf-
ter having helped to ruin our in
dustry. - Assumption Pioneer.
