SOU'WESTERN REFLECTIONS.

Potato days are drawing to theil
close. To be ready for the early
market the potatoes should be
bedded before the first of April.
Have you bedded out your pump
kin yams yet?
The question of fertilizer fol
your land is a live subject just
now. Diversification and intelIi.
gent crop rotation will do much
to build up your soil, but in order
to produce the best results some
commercial fertilizer should be
used by every farmer.
Remember, the intelligent use
of fertilizer is not an expense; it
is a most profitable investment.
You have all the rest of March
in which to SOW lespedeza in your
oats. Have you done this? If
not, do it now. Lespedeza is a
soil builder and a mortgage-lifter.
Look out for Charlton and hog
cholera. These diseases have al
ready made their appearance in
some portions of Southwest Louis
lana and the entire district ia
threatened. If a cow or mule
elbows signs of being ill in a ma
jority of cases it is charbon. If a
hog is "puny" and dropping it
probably has cholera.
Don't trifle with these diseases.
Shoot the buzzard and the stray
dog. Burn the carcass of any an
imal that dies of any sort of sick
ness. Clean up your pens; disin-
feet them with lime and charcoal,
and provide only pure water for
your live stock.
And then-most important of
all-get an experienced man to
immunize all your farm animals.
There is no excuse for neglecting
this, as the State Live Stock San.
itary Board will furnish the serum
below the cost of actual produce
ton, in order to help the farmer.
Join the Southwest Louisiana
Development Bureau and thereby
get in it's Home Market Club.
Southwest Louisiana is going to
produce heavily this year. Help
us to find profitable markets for
every pound it produces.
Have you ever considered what
. Home Market Club means to
you?

We were pleased to receive a
visit on Thursday last from Mr..
H. M. Mayo, the immigration and
advertising agent of the Southern
Pacific Railroad, who was the
personal guest of Clerk of Court
w. H. Kramer. Mr.. Mayo is q
st. Mary man and has had a long
and successful experience in rail-
road business. He visited with
Mr.. Kramer the holdings of the
Cypremort Land Company. Mr..
Mayo spoke very encouragingly OF
the future of the sugar section OF
our State. He said in effect that
although the taking off of the
tariff on sugar is a heavy blow,
still under proper methods of
agriculture and farming our sec.
ton in a short time will prosper
as it never prospered before.
M. H. S. Palfrey. cashier of the

pany, of this place, has declined
the appointment of State Bank
Examiner, in lieu of Mr.. VIM. l..
Young, removed, rendered to him
by Governor Hall. The Governor
expressed great disappointment
at Mr.. Palfrey's decision. He felt
that had Mr.. Palfrey &C.
cept d the State would have had
az officer of exceptional ability
and fitness fer that important
trust. His experience and success
for many years in the banking
business has ranked him among
the ablest and best of his profess
sion in the State. Mr.. Palfrey
gives as his reason for declining
the proffered honor is because his
present business interests requires
all his attention and that, after
with his business asso.
ciates, both in Franklin and New
Orleans, he concluded to decline
the appointment. The Banner,
while it is proud to know that Mr..
Palfrey has been rendered this
honor is profoundly glad to know
that he has concluded to remain
here and serve his people who
pet and trust him.

subsequently became his own end
where he passed away. Practically
his whole life was spent in this city,
where for more than 45 years he had
carried on the book and stationery
business in the same store and had
become, with possibly one exception,
the oldest merchant on our streets in
point of service. During this long
period he had established a reputation
for business integrity that was unsur-
passed.
He had a wide acquaintance among
the Masons of the State having in
earlier years taken a great interest in
that order and having served as emil
nent commander of Trinity Comman-
derry.
Although he had nearly reached the
age of three score years and ten,
Frank Pierce never seemed old, be-
cause his heart was young and his
spirits CHEEKY, and he counted his
friends among the young as well as
among those of his own years. In fact
he was eyerybody's friend and we'll
wisher. the courteous. kindly and
helpful companion. He was so uni
versally loved because he loved others
and he was a living example of the
truth that it is more blessed to give
than to receive. At his place in the
familiar store, at his summer cottage
at Cobbossee, at his home in the
sweet companionship of family and
friends, everywhere and at all times
he radiated an atmosphere of kindil-
ness, sympathy and good cheer. With
a rich fund of "Reminiscences, quiet
humor. and wtthal wholesome, gen.
erous and genuine nature, he was
the much sought and much prlZed
| companion and friend.

Pennington Wants
Larger Water Mains,

Pennington, Me-, Feb. 1S.-The
largest meeting of the village corpora
tion for years came together in Mu-
sic hall Tuesday evening. 1t was an
adjourned meeting from three weeks
ago, and the purpose of holding it was
to act upon the question Of extending
the present municipal water system.
The proposal was to connect the
present standpipe with the supply by
an additional eight t-inch pipe for the
purpose of greater protection in case
of an emergency and for the further
purpose of having at all times an
abundant supply of water. 1t was so
voted by a large majority, but the
interest in the outcome of the met
ing was intense as shown by the large
attendance.
The matter was put before the Vot-
ers py Hon. e. f. Richards, who eX-
planned in some detail the advantages
with respect to fire protection and in
creased financial income. Thomas d.
Austin, a member of the village as
SCISSORS. endorsed the move and gave
his reasons, fully explaining that he
had made a thorough investigation of
present conditions and the probable
result of the proposed new line. The
distance to be covered by this addi-
ton is some $4,000 feet. The net cost
is figured to be approximately S40,-
600. Civil Enginer H. w. Green from
Waterville was present and furnished
such figures from his survey as were
called for The water system as now
constructed, has been a success In
every respect. 1t has furnished
revenue sufficient to pay all expenses
of running the village without as
sessing taxes, has paid the interest on
bonds. and allowed the accumula-
ton of a considerable surplus. The
proposed line will accommodate
large number of new takers and in
crease the revenue proportionately.

A partial eclipse of the moon will oc-
cur Wednesday night, March IL
which will be visible in Augusta and
throughout the greater part of the
United States, and local astronomers
will no doubt be on hand to watch its
progress, as it will be the only eclipse
that will be visible in New England
during the current year. The moon will
enter penumbra at 8.41 and soon after
that time the eastern limb will grad
ually grow dim and copper colored, but
without losing its shape. At 9.42 the
eastern limb will enter the shadow
proper and from that time until lila
the moon Will gradually become dark
ened. At that time the middle of the
eclipse will have been reached, when
only about one-tenth Of the disc will
be illuminated, near the northern limb
After that time the moon will slowly
emerge from the shadow, and will be
entirely out of it at 12.45 A. M, March

Night officer John Burke of the DO
lice force is a firm believer in the truth
Of the legend of the woodchuck or
ground hog in connection with Candel-
mas day as governing the weather for
the remainder of the winter months
and the fact that last Candelmas day
was fair and bright" has served to
greatly strengthen his belief. The
strenuous weather which has prevail
ed on several occasions since Feb 2
he believes has been in strict accord
ance with the prophecy on that day,
and IS convinced that the wise old
woodchuck which came out that morn
ing and saw his shadow on the snow
showed his wisdom when he hustled
back into his hole for another long
snooze which he felt confident that he
would enjoy before the time comes for
him to sally forth to enjoy the tender
clover tops that come with the spring
time.

AMUSE MENTS.

Dunbars Gave Concerts on Shipboard
The Dunbar Quartet and Bell Ring
ers, the world famous novelty concer'
company to be heard at city nail TO-
morrow evening, are everywhere IN
great demand and have not dates
enough to go around.
When enroute to London and Paris
on their last European trip they gave
four concerts on shipboard. The
proceeds, amounting to $1,000, were
given for the aid of old and retired
seamen.
While on this European trip which
lasted eight weeks, the Dunbars were
offered large guarantee for a years
tour of South Africa, Australia and
other countries, but were unable to ac-
cept the offer as they were booked fol-
over year in advance in America.
1t makes no difference where the
