To Make Money With Hens
(Boston Globe.)

An excellent way of making
money out Of hens is to write a
book, telling others how to do it.
One such book, with the seduc
tive title, How to Make $500 a
Year Profit With Twelve Hens"
which had great vogue some
years ago, is said to have net.
ted the author a handsome sum
and netted credulous readers a
large supply Of illusions.
Though not a humorous book, it
seemed to assume that eggs
would bring several dollars a
piece in the open market.
A vast hen literature exists,
mostly of recent origin. It has
sprung up within the last fifty
years and covers every possible
phase of poultry aud of eggs.
The late George Bernham, of
Melrose, wrote a long and facetl-
Gus narrative, entitled Hen Fe-
ver," telling how in the '40s a
wave of popular enthusiasm for
Cochin Chlnas swept over the
country. He describes Daniel
Webster's visit to the first Bos-
ton poultry show in 1S49. He
was called on for a speech. The
crowd gathered around him, and
he began to comply with the re-
quest, but the orators voice was
drowned by the growing of the
roosters. He could reply effec-
lively to Hayne, but not to the
poultry.

SCHOOL TAX ELECTIONS
CARRIED.

The champions of public schools
for the education of the chi.dre
Of the Parish of Iberia were much
gratified last Tuesday when
it became known that the Attn
Ward, Loreauville and the 9Th,
the Coteau had registered their
approval of a FIVE year 2-mill
tax in order to enable the School
Board to continue its work Of
educating the children Of those
respective localities. Had not
these taxes been carried the doors
of the School houses would have
been closed during the 1914-1915
term and would not only have
been a reflection upon the citizens
of those Wards but hindrance
to their future welfare. We
learn however, that protest will
be filed by some of the opponents
Of the tax on the grounds of some
technicality, as to the conduct OF
the election. To show the inter-
est manifested there were a total
of 139 votes cast, II votes in
favor and Sc against. In prop
erty valuation, $S4, 1868 in favor
while the opponents cast $780,
111.OO against the tax. The cit
liens and property holders Of tho
| 5th Ward who were in favor Of
the tax deposited in the box thir-
ty-five votes as against only fif-
teen. In property valuation
$113,S4O in favor of and in op-
position $4,000. This is an ex-
cellent showing and those who
supported the proposition should
have reason to feel gratified over
the result. Among the most ac-
tive in behalf Of the tax levy,
SO were understand, were men,
bers of the families of the late
Albert Landry and f. A. Pharr
and also Mr.. Jos. Norres, a sue
cessful planter of that Ward. We
feel certain those who voted to
assist the School Board in edu-
eating the young will never have
reason to regret it.

TICK ERADICATION.

The selection of the Hope Farm
site by the National Government
for the location Of the Demon
stration Farm. was welcome
Piece of news this week. I'm
mcdiately, deeds for the neces-
sary land, donated by the State
and by Mr.. p. f. Sandager, were
forwarded to Washington, the
demonstrators in charge of the
several departments appointed,
and application made by the
Pal ish and the Cities of New he
ria and Jeanerette for permission
from the War Department to con-
struct the required bridge across
Bayou Teche at Rosedale. In a
word, a public enterprise has
been launched which will result,
not only in the material advance
of Iberia Parish. but will contrl-
butte to the welfare of the entire
sugar belt.
As will be recalled, the Govern
ment and State Agents were in
New iberia some weeks ago, rec
ommending and urging the con-
struction of dipping watts with a
view of destroying the ticks and
eradicating the disease rropo-
gated fby them, which cost the
Parish hundreds of heads OF eat
tie yearly. This advice, the 20
Ice Jury readily followed, and
forthwith appropriated a sum
sufficient to construct ten watts III
Iberia Parish Under the super
vision of DR.. Easten of the De-
partment of Animal Industry,
three are now being constructed.
The first on the place of Mr. j..
sroussard, just south of New
Iberia and the others on the pla-
ces of Mr.. Jules j. Olivier in the
Second Ward and Mr.. l.. c. De-
Blame i'm the Seventh Ward. And
let it be. noted to the credit of
,su>r people, not only has the re-
auisite land been donated for the
purpose, but the farmers and
residents Of each of these locall-
ties have extended thei. help ana
cooperation by contributing their
own labor and the use OF their
teams for hauling the material
,.sed in the construction of
watts and in other ways. assisting
the Parish in its efforts to pro.
mote the pubic welfare. The
motives actuating these public
snirited citizens is to be COM
mended, and proclaim the sue
cess of a new enterprise which
will contribute a large share IN
the future prosperity of this see
ton. Long summers, good past
urage and soil capable OF pro-
drring all manner of feed stuff
render this section an ideal one
for stock farming. That we viii
avail ourselves of its possibilities
is evidenced by the activities now
going on in this direction. Let
these activities continue. Let
them expand until they have
reached every part of the sugar
belt and place South Louisiana IN
the forefront Of stock raising cen
tiers and forever destroy the One
Crop Idea and its attendant evils.
