It's capacity to produce IS restrict.
ed By reason Of the fact that the
abundant rainfall which ought Il
be blessing is permitted to be
come q curse by our failure to
carry it from the land with sufi-
Gent expedition. In too many
cases it IS left to remain on the
land until removed BY the pro-
eesses Of absorption and evapora-
ton, leaving the soil packed and
water soaked and the crops scald-
ed, checked IN growth and re-
duced in yield.
Millions of dollars in
potential wealth are destroyed
every year in Southwest Louis
lana, and yet the average farm
er is unable to see that his redue-
ed yield is due directly. not to
excessive rainfall, but excessive
i%nattention to the important duty
of carrying the surplus rainfall
from his lands.
The salvage alone by which is
meant the difference between
what the fields Of Southwest
Louisiana now produce and what
would produce under a compre-
modern system Of drain
age, would pay the cost of such
a system over and over again
every two or three years. It is
readily seen, therefore, that what
the development bureau proposes
% do is to drain thoroughly every
portion Of Southwest Louisiana,
md to pay for the construction
installation Of the system out
# a small portion only Of that
which they now permit to go to
waste. IN other words, we pro
'ose to capitalize the present
waste and set it to work to make

Making the Profile.

is a smooth board some sheets of
which paper, a sheet and a candle.
The board is hung upon the wall
with a chair in front of it, but not too
close. About ten feet away have a
lighted candle, the other lights being
put out. Ask a boy to sit in the
chair, which should have a back high
enough to hold his head steady, so
that the shadow of his profile falls
upon sheet of paper tackled to the
board.
Run around the outline of this pro-
file quickly with a soft pencil. Put a
number on it, and the boys name.
Ask another boy to take the chair
while your assistant cuts out the pro-
file you have just made. In a few
minutes you will have half a dozen
and you may stick in one or two fake
profles to add to the fun.
Now hang your sheet where the
folding doors go, between two rooms
if possible, and set your candle on a
table in one room, while your guests
take their places in the other. Each
person should have slip of paper to
write down opposite the number you
call out the name Of the boy they
think the profile belongs to, the num-
bers you have put on them being not
in order Of course, but any number
you please, such as As and 81.
Standing in the back room, about
one-third Of the way from the candle
to the sheet, you can hold up pro
file so that it throws a shadow, but
the outline will be SO big and look
so curious that you will be astonished
how hard it is for a person to guess
it, even if it is that persons own
profile.
The winner at this game is the one
who gets the greatest number Of cor
rect guesses. If you have slipped IN
one or two fake profles you will find
that some one or other will be sure
