Judge James Simon will begin
the regular July term of the
Criminal Court tomorrow morn
ing, July 9th. The docket is
said to be a light one with no
murder cases in sight. This is a
fortunate condition and speaks
much for Iberia Parish. We sim
! cerely believe there is less crime
| in this Parish than any in the
State.
| On the occasion of the visit
here of the editors and owners
of Northern agric ultural papers,
Mr.. Robert Edgar Of Olivier
sent in several stalks Of corn,
measuring fourteen feet. Each
stalk had from three to four well
formed ears, some Of which meas
ured sixteen inches. 1t was GER
tainly a revelation to our vlsl-
tors and several of them stated
that they had never seen any
thing to equal it before.

Hon. j. Gabi Leblanc, Clerk
of Court received this week from
St. Louis a document which is to
be recorded in the achieves OF
his office in the shape Of a mort
gage Of $10,000,OOO against the
New Iberia & Northern Railroad
with like amount against the
Iberia, St. Mary & Eastern R. K.
in favor Of the st. Louis Trust
Co. of st. Louis, Mo. This is one
of the largest mortgages ever
recorded in the State Of Louisi-
ana. It is more than probable
there will be more activity on
this line of railway in the very
near future. Now that all of the
general offices of these. roads are
in New iberia we should profit
much with the additional pay
rolls.
Some time since we had occa-
sion to visit the Evangeline farm
south Of New Iberia, owned by
Messrs. Dallas & Bertram and re-
ported their installation of a silo
! and other modern implements
which woud be used for demon
! stration purposes. Since operat.
/ ing the farm these gentlemen
{ found such strong inclination on
, the part Of the small farmers to
emulate them that they have gone
into the machinery and imple-
ment business on a very large
scale. Last week they fitted up
one of the large buildings near
the Southern Pacific depot owned
by Mr.. Willie B. Kramer and
have stocked it with every con-
ceivable modern implement suit
able to our farmers. These gen.
tlemen have already sold several
dozens implements and much
good will be accomplished in this
Parish through their activity IN
teaching the agriculturists how to
rse these implements with the
best results.
