FLOOD SUFFERERS AIDED
Destitute Farmers Aided by Free Dis
tribution of Seed.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Baton Rouge.-Prof r. l.. Hines, in
charge of the Louisiana flood relief
work, has distributed 10000 bushels
OF cotton seed in the overflow terri
tory, 5000 bushels of peas and $500
bushels of corn. This is the distribu-
tion necessary to replant the over
flowed territory. The seed has not
been given to any planter able to buy
his own seed.
Most of the seed and practically all
o. the relief work, according to the
records of Mr.. Hines, has been done
in Concordia, Catahoula and Tensas
parishes, which were the hardest hit
by the Lake st. John crevasse. Frank
lin and LaSalle were slightly hit by
the high water from the break. Avoy-
elles. around Bayou des Glaizes, and
Red river mouth suffered from the
backwater, and the southern part OF
Pointe Coupee and the western part
of Iberville were also touched by the
back water, and in these parishes
some free seed has been distributed
for replanting.

CGTTQa WASTE s50.CC9.Cc0
Government Expert Gives Figures on
Careless Handling.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
WASHINGTON. II. C.-ACcOrding to the
estimates of government experts, there
is a. waste damage of Sj0,000,000 an
nually to the cotton crop of the United
States after the white staple leaves
the gins and before it reaches the spin
ners. This is largely due to the slov-
enly manner in which cotton is
handled.
The farmers often leave it expos
ed to be damaged by rain and infll-
trated with mud. Even when offered
for shipment it is sometimes in this
condition. All too frequently II is
loosely baled and inadequately market
ed 1t is said that on receipt at for
eign ports bales of cotton look like
ragbags.
The railways in the cotton-growing
regions are, therefore, redoubling their
efforts with cotton compressors. GIN
ners, farmers and shippers. When
| those concerned in cotton growing and
/ shipping find that shiftless methods
react upon their pocketbooks to the
tune of $4,000 600 yearly, it is prob
able that better order of things viii
come about. Not only the money, bu
also the good will of the foreign con
sumer. is worth while, especially IN
these days when he is enreavoring tt
stimulate the growth of cotton in othel
countries than the United States.
