GROsELE NOTES.

II
farmer of north west of Wei h and Dr.
Guilty of Lake Charles, were in the
Charlton district in view of incorpora'
ton the farmers on making an effort to
establish some means of stamping Out
the dreaded deseaSe, Charlton. We feel
that such steps should have long since
been taken so as to protect the coun'
try from having general cleanout OF the
stock. At the present rate OF the dying
of cattle, horses and mules, there would
not be any stock left in this section IN
the next ninety days, as there was at
one time as high as ten head lost
in twenty four hours. We also urge
that our Police Jurytake up the matter
with the Guilty Bros, and do all in
there power to stamp out the desease.
We also feel that it would be the duty
of each and every taxpayer OF the Par.
iSh of jefferson Davis to help carry out
the problem not for the benefit Of any
individual, but for the good of the
whole country, which means success
and prosperityIto allIt seems that each
and every one should be ready to offer
helping hand towards everything
that means aid to the country and to
its people.
Wednesday, July IA, 1914, at the hour
of D. m. MIR, of Matt Miller Elton, and
Miss Grace Hebert of Fenton were
united in the Holy Bonds OF Wedlock,
where two hearts are made one. After
the document had been signed MIR. and
Mrs. Matt Miller left for Coverdale, La.
The ceremony was performed by Judge
A. V. Peloquin and the. parties departed
with showers Of good wishes and hopes
of happy trip through slife journey.
The steady thud OF the pumps are
constantly heard AS the dry weather ad
vanceS the rice is more in need OF water
still crops are promising OF goot
yield.
Born to Mr.. and Mrs. John Miller d
Woodlawn July the 8th, a fine boy
The boy is doing fine and Dad John il

One day last week the home of Mr.

Mr.. C. j. Phelps of Fenton who il
farming 1.-THE Holm Bros, farm nea
Fenton, reports his crop OF over 10
acres of rice completely flooded .Satur
day night, and we note the crop looking
very fine in growth and stand.
We are sorry to report Mr. Dav
Augustine very i'll for the past fey
days. His two daughters Mrs. F
Peloquin .and Mrs. F. L. Peloquin c
Fenton have been called to his bedsid

Mr.. j. G, Carter the architect fror
Lake Charles was out at Fenton draw
ing plans for the Fenton graded schoo
building, and we understand that til
i. building was intended to be of Brick, bit
the meeting of Friday changed same I
two story wooden building OF fiy
rooms which will he rushed along S
as to be completed for the Septembe
term OF school for as near as poSsibl
The Hebert school house last wee
in a severe puff CT wind was blow
from its blocks, and badly damaged IL
floor was some what broken and tt
entire set OF glass windows were d
stroYed. and the front doors also wei
G broken which means six new set
sash and one new door, also set

ia MIR. Yves Pitre, the ninth ward Pa
50 iSh Father has a dipping vat where
Ward Nine proposes to pay half Il
cost if the stock raisers will pay Il
other half the cost; Mr.. Pitre thin
0 that by the proper precaution that Il
: vat complete and ready for d ppil
\ would not exceed one hundred dollar
The purpose OF this vat in each wa
would be fer diSinfection of the ii
). pest and all other contagious deseas
: of the stock, if the stock men will G
together and meet their part of t
cost. we feel that the returns Wou
be very much more than the cost, Ii
all help protect our stock.
