Cuba should have a preferential rate

MACHINE GUN
WORK ON OAHU
HAS RESULTS
Organization May Be Changed
Owing to Problems Worked
Out Here Last Year

AS the direct result of firing prob
lens conducted in the Hawaiian de-
partment year ago, for war strength
machine gun companies. there is like
ly to be revolution in the organiza-
tion of the machine gun detachments
of infantry and cavalry regiments.
Lieutenant T. p. Jackson, End Infan-
try, last year worked out some en-
tirely new problems, showing the ef-
ficiency of consolidated machine gun
platoons In action, and 1t was predict
ed at that time that a move would
probably be made to make larger or
ganizations for each regiment. Now,
according to recent dispatches from
Washington, 1t is planned to make the
machine gun outfit a separate COM
pany for each regiment, which will
undoubtedly mean, say army officers
here, an increase in strength as well.
With the platoons of the 1st and End
Infantry, and the 5th Cavalry, COM
bined, Lieutenant Jackson last year
made some really wonderful records,
firing at silhouette targets in platoon
columns, and also guarding bridges
and other positions in night firing.
where the range had been previously
determined.
Lt.-Col. Harry c. Hale, United
States Army, acting chief Of the di-
vision of militia affairs, has issued an
important bulletin touching on the
organization of machine gun platoons
in regiments Of the organized militia,
and suggesting that the infantry regi,
ments of militia create a thirteenth
company, to be known as a machine
gun company, in anticipation of the
law governing such organizations in
the regular army being changed so
that the machine gun platoons of reg
ulor infantry regiments may be known
as a thirteenth company, and given
added strength.
1t is possible that the experiments
conducted at Schofield Barracks more
than IL months ago, may mean an ad-
dition to the national guard of Ha-
waii. in tine near future, as we'll as

Attorneys Thompson and War
rem Clash in Rougier- Miller
$53, 900 Lawsuit

Today's hearing Of Captain Fred
erick C. Miller's $4,000 damage suit
against Father Emmanuel Rougier
was featured by an exchange of the
short, ugly word between their legal
counsel. No blows were struck, how
ever, timely warning from the court
checking the possibility Of any phys
ical demonstrations E
The clash arose between Attorney
warren, Father Rougier's counsel and
Attorney Thompson, representing
Captain Miller, almost Immediately
after the mornings hearing began. It
was due largely, Thompson asserts,
to the courtroomis poor acoustics
straining tempers already sorely tried
by the tedium of a lengthy trial.
Attorney Thompson, seeking to get
the correct statement of Father Rou.
gier. who was on the witness stand,
misquoted him and Attorney Thomp-
son in turn was corrected by the
court
"T beg your pardon" Thompson
AYERS he remarked to the court.
Yes" retorted Warren, and you
knew in the first place what the wit
ness said"
You're a lar!" shouted Thomp-
son.
Gentlemen, gentlemen! No such
remarks" warned the court, and turn
ing to the witness, added: You will
please speak louder so that opposing
counsel can hear you plainly" While
Attorney Warren's retort to Thomp-
sons remark was obvious, no one 9th
er than himself knows whether he ac-
tually said it, but he at once resun-
ed direct examination OF the witness

Corn.

You hear more about this word corn
and the one hundred million bushel corn
slogan for 1914 than any other agricul-
tural product raised in Louisiana There
is a reason for it. We must raise corn
in Louisiata and teach the farmer to
utilize every available acre of ground
for this product, the greatest food pro-
Queer of all. Louisiana certainly can
feel blessed that we were not in the
drouth stricken district and that we
have at least enough corn to feed our
live stock through the winter and spring.
Every farmer should send for cata-
logue and premium list of the State
fair and see how the six hundred dol
lars that is offered on corn is divided
into many different classifications and
premiums. There are premiums offer
ed on fourteen different varieties, and
all you have to do is to select ten ears
of your best corn and make entry for
the pretniums at the State fair. 1t
costs nothing except the paying of the
express charges, or the corn can be
sent by parcel post. Do not send the
corn in sack or box, but write to the
secretary and he will send you, charges
prepaid, a corn cartoon that will hold
the ten ears. You are required to ship
your corn in this cartoon to the fair.
In addition to your competing for the
premiums as offered by the State fair,
there is another reason for sending the
corn Immediately following the close
of the State fair, all the corn as well
as all the agricultural prodscts exhibit
ed at the State fair will be sent out on
the demonstration train and all without
any expense to the party sending in the
exhibit.
Let Louisiana show that corn, and
the best quality at that, can be raised
on her SOIL Send in ten ears and help
out the movement. If you have not
received catalogue write to-day to

The Wise Farmer Should Read and Act.

me- w iSe dTmeT OuOui0 ledu anu ACt.
The Louisiana Publicity Commission,
in its bulletin No. 3, has this to say:
Wanted-Pure bred hogs, gifts and
males, suitable for immediate service,
also Hereford and other beef breeds Of
cattle.
This should be the first step in solv-
ing the market problem, so far as corn
is concerned. A few gifts obtained now
and bred for spring narrowing will pro-
duce for you profitable market for the
additional acreage of corn you intend
to put out next spring If you really
want them write this office.
Throughout the State the problem of
proftably marketing our immense corn
crop, that crop which has already at
tracted the attention of other States to
Louisiana, is engaging the attention of
our Louisiana farmers.
Some large buyers of pure bred seed
and stock have already applied for a
list of these producers, and we want
the name and address of every farmer
who is progressive enough to have for
sale high grade farm seeds or stock.
We are trying to learn the good things
our State is producing, and when we
get this information, we want to pub
lish it. not only to our own people, but
it will be valuable information with
which to supplement our invitation to
the desirable immigrant from other
States.
Many inquiries have come in already
for pure bred live stock. Louisiana
farmers should not overlook the great
opportunity now of catering to the pro-
fitable business of producing high grade
pure bred grain and live stock.
Taking advantage of this invitation
may benefit you directly, and you will
incidentally become booster. Publici-
ty built upon achievement is the kind
which attracts. Let your light shine;
tell us about it.
You, who want some of the good
things, perhaps growing near you,
write US. We will try to put you in
touch with the party who has what you
want.
