From almost every parish

resources. This demand must

crease in our agricultural and
Industrial development in the not
too distant future.
With changing conditions in
the area of our State which was
heretofore devoted almost exclu-
%sivels to the growing of the
cane and sugar crops, some of
our thinking people are lead to
believe that time is now at hand
for the dividing up of many of
large plantations into small farms
and to people these lands with a
good class of intelligent farmers.
1t is vastly to the interest of
the State co heed these demands
by making adequate provisions
for the carrying on of a eoloni-
cation movement. and if it is
brought to an early fruition the
State will not only have greatly
benefited itself, but will also have
brought a large measure of pros
to its inhabitants.

IMMIGRATION NEEDFUL 70
DEVELOPMENT.

While there seems no posi-
Ebility Of realizing any great
public sum for the promotion
immigration and for advestising
the State Of Louisiana in emf
grafton territory, the present
year, it is interesting to note
how completely the idea has
gained Roadway through the ex-
ploitation of the bill for 100, 600.
90 to be appropriated for the
use of the agricultural depart
ment in the immigration bureau,
by the State legislature.
With hardly an exception the
newspapers of the State approved
of the bill, and only the lack of
or the fear of a large
debt, prevented realiza-
ton of the project. which will
come with a budget from a fu-
ture legislature. if not from pop
ular subscription among the
active commercial organizations
Of the state.
Concerning the need for such
a measure we quote from the re-
cent report of Hon. Justin F.
