Among the many fine chickens.
which were entered at Lafayette on
the occasion OF the Parish Fair, were
i've single comb Black Orpingtons
from the pens of Mr.. l.. F. Lailande OF
this city. These FIVE birds turned the
scales at 40 lbs. The richness of the
coloring of their plumage. their per
feet health and their generally come
~ appearance may be better inferred
than described. from the list OF
awards captured by them from the
judges: First on cock; first on hen;
fret on cockerel. first on pen; special
for best solid color of male; special
Tor best solid color of female; and spe-
cial for best solid color of pen. Mr..
Lallande tells as that he has tried sew
eral varieties OF the chicken family
and that he is more than pleased with
his Orpington pens. They are splen-
did winter layers. This was his first
venture at putting any OF his birds on
exhibition in competition and the re-
suit was so favorable, he has deter
mined to become an exhibitor at other
Parish Fairs.

CHARGES OF ADMISSION TO
LOUISIANA STATE FAIR.

IL is doubtful II any fair in the coun-
try charges a lower admission price
than the Louisiana State Fair at
shreveport. The reason the visitors
are admitted at such "A low figure to
the Louisiana institution il because
the Louisiana fair Is primarily an ed :
ucational factor 1t is not meant as a
money making proposition. The man
agement desires only enough financial
return to defray expenses and prepare
for the next years fair.
Some OF the attractions enioyed by
the visitors are worth two or three
times the charge Of admission. but the
Idea Is TO make the charge just rs little
~ possible. And that this course has
been followed consistently is shown
by the prices of admission this year
which are officially announced as fol-
lows

The CREAMERY
AN "ADVANCER.' y

On Thursday the writer paid a brie,
visit to the New Iberia Creamery. Mr.
Hendricks, the general manager, call,
ed attention to wagon which was
lust driving Oft with ten empty ten
gallon cans. These cans had but 4
few minutes before been emptied o,
milk at the creamery. The manager
| also stated that the supply of milk
coming to the creamery was constant
ly increasing; that new patrons were
ing registered every little while.
While some of the farmers brought in
but small quantity # milk ut time.
there were others who had gone into
the milk production business in real
earnest and were making it protta BILE.
One farmer acknowledged to him
that the cash received from the cream
cry was amply to support his family
and also paid the extra labor on the
farm IN taking care of the necessities
OF "A heavier crop. This was of pecu-
liar advantage, especially this year.
when IL was so hard to get any ad-
vances His crop, when harvested.
would have no bad debts to be paid
out OF the proceeds. The milk sold to
the creamery brings the cash to the
farmer - times year. without ped
ding, and without losses through bad
credits. The farmers revenue from
this source depends upon the charac-
ter OF his herd and the efficiency of
the manner IN which he handles it.
This creamery has been in operation
but six months. The advantages 10
the farmer of such an industry were
made apparent from the very start.
There were not many who experience
ed much difficulty IN realizing the
value OF the creamery to the farming
class. A couple of months ago there
was little apprehension that the
supply of milk might fall off during
the wiuter. but this seems to have
passed with the increasing sources OF
supply.
1t has been stated that this town
consumes Sl25 worth of butter per
day. There IS no danger of the
creamery having TO seek an outside
market for it's products till It's produc-
ton will equal the city's demand.
When this will have been attained
here is an immense market in neigh.
borhood towns where there are no
creameries.
