In acc ordance with the proc
lamation issued by Mayor Fonte
lieu relative to cleaning outhou-
ses, yards, etc, Chief Of Police
Broughton has been making the
rounds this week to see whether
there are any violations. From
what he told Us there were a
number who had not up to Thurs
day complied with the ordinance
and that unless they get busy
within the next few days he would
have all who disregard the law
brought before the City Court. It
now behooves everybody to see
that their premises are cleaned
otherwise there will be penalties
imposed.

The drouth was practically
broken this week to the great sat
isfaction and joy Of our farmers.
On Tuesday, Olivier Station set
tlement was visited with a good
heavy rain which was followed
on Thursday noon with a down
pour in this City. We understand
there were also good showers just
beyond Loreauville on Wednes-
day. This came as a blessing to
our farmers, in many instances
corn was suffering very much, in
some places through the Parish we
noticed it was literally burned
up. The crops as a whole con-
sidering the drouth however, is
I'D to the standard and it is evil
dent that all of our staple crops
will bring good prices in harvest
ing season.

! 1t will be remembered some
months since. Messrs. Suberbielle
Bros, introduced into this section
some early growing Texas cotton
seed and many Of our farmers
made purchases to see what could
be done with the seed despite the
boil weevil. From what we learn
most all Of the seed gave excellent
results and promising crop will
be the result if proper attention
is given the cotton when the boil
is being formed. In an inter
view with Mr.. Suberbielle yester-
day he informed us that he, with
Mr.. Broussard. the Farm Dem
onstrator of the Parish intend
making a complete tour over this
section to impress noon the farm
ers the necessity Of keeping the
fields clean and free of squares
that fall. AS fast as they drop
to the ground they should be
carefully picked up and burned,
otherwise it will be impossible to
get entirely rid of the pest. 1t
has been demonstrated in thou
sands of cases that where this
precaution is practiced there has
always been a good crop and
when neglected the farmers
failed absolutely. Cotton can
again be grown here successfully
and it behooves them to watch
over their crop if they hope to
ever make this cotton growing
section.
