There are elements in this country
which would clamOr for an immediat..

destruction of the North Carolina were
confirmed; many, in fact who would

DIVORCE AND THE PROSECUTOR
on the statute books OF Indiana
there is a law requiring the prescott

divorce suits. The problem in divorces
is 10 keep them from becoming too
easy TO obtain and in suits where the
defendant, either by design or through
indifference, fails TO appear In court.
il is the duty of the prosecuting at
torney or his repres entative TO zee

TEST SEED BEFORE PLANTING.

/ The harvesting conditions this fall
have been such that much of the seed
gathered for planting purposes is very
poor. The excessive rains caused
some ofothe seed to terminate in the
field. In gathering the grain later
these sprouts were broken off so that
apparently the seed is in good condi-
ton, but when planted will not grow.
Also some of the seed was killed by
over heating during the harvest. These
conditions apply especially to cotton,
rice and lespedeza
A termination test made now would
tgive the farmer information soon
enough for him to profit by it. If the
test shows poor termination, he will
have time to procure good seed; if
high termination, he will be sure of at
| least one of the factors of success
full crop. Merchants and planters hav-
| ing seed for sale can learn of the quail
ity of such seed before any harm is
done to their reputation for reliability.
Recent tests made of crimson clover
show that some of the seed on the
market terminates below 30 per cent.
Farmers planting this crop should be
especially careful about the quality of
their seed.
Purity and termination tests are
made free Of charge by the Branch
Seed Laboratory in cooperation with
the Experiment Station at Baton
Rouge Since most of the tests ex.
tend over at least week and some
like those of lespedeza, over three
weeks, farmers and merchants should
take care of this matter before the
planting season.

CENTENARY COLLEGE
CLAIMED BY STATE

Attorney-general Pleasant appeared
at Clinton Friday to argue the case of
the Centenary College property, locat-
ed at Jackson, on behalf of the State.
The State is claiming the reversion of
the property of the college, and in
tends to foreclose a mortgage held
against it. Briefly, the history of the
case is this: About seventy years ago
the State sold the property to the col
1ege for $4,000. A mortgage was taken
but, in compliance with law passed
for the relief of the college, the pay
ment of the mortgage was suspended
as long as college of standard spec
flied was maintained, and which should
educate free a certain number of resi-.
dents of the State, etc. The State in
sists that the college having deter.
mined on removal to another section,
the mortgage is due and must be sat
isfied.
1t is maintained on behalf of the in
|stitution that Act No. SO of 1871 reliev-
ed the college of the obligations 1t had
entered into, and that since that date
it has possessed the property free of
encumbrance
There is much interest felt in the
case among the Methodists through
out the State, and the residents of
Jackson are especially interested In
the outcome, for under the present
conditions the property is fast going
to ruin. Naturally the residents of
Jackson desire that something be done,
irrespective of the outcome of the suit.

I'VE have made some Roadway in

PARDON IS REFUSED
DR. {. c. McKOWEN

The application for pardon of Dr. E.
c. McKowen of East Feliciana, who
was convicted and sentenced for a
life term for the murder of an inmate
of the East Louisiana Hospital for the
Insane at Jackson, has been refused
by the Pardon Board. Attorney-gen-
eral Pleasant had previously decided
unfaVorably upon the application,
while Judge Brunot, the trial judge,
had approved the pardon. The mat
ter thus rested in the hands of Lieut..
Gov. Barrett, the third member of the
board, and Mr.. Barrett has determined
to join with the Encouragement in
the refusal of the pardon. The appli-
cation was made on the ground that
at the time of the commission of the
crime the accused was insane, but is
now sane.
Mr.. Barrett said he had given earnest
and patient consideration to the ap-
plication for pardon, and that he SYM
pathized with the loyal relatives and
friends of the applicant, but that I'M
der the facts and law applicable to the
case, he did not, under the circum.
stances, see how he could abbreviate
life sentence to the brief term the
applicant had served. He said that
the high character of professional SER
vice constantly rendered the Board Of
Control by DR.. McKowen, as shown
by the letter of Col. Parker, would
doubtless suggest much Communication
of time, which he hoped the Board Of
Control, under the statute, would gen.
erously allow.

THANKING A NEWSPAPER.
Fort Smith Herald:

Fort Smith Herald:
That newspapers should give freely
of their time and work and space in
promoting every movement for the
general welfare, every charitable plan
and philanthropic purpose-to thou.
sand and one things that are under
way all the time--is something that
most people expect as a matter of
course.
Their taking it for granted that in
all such cases editors will lend a
helping hand is really high compli-
ment to the newspapers. 1t proves
that they have been doing these things
so long so willingly and so insistently
that it is a habit and that for them to
do anything else would mean radi-
cal change in their policy.
For our part we believe that'a news
paper would fail in its mission if it
did not support cordially measures to
advance the general welfare in any
way. We wonder, however, if the av.
erage man or woman has the least
idea of the sum total that metropoli-
tan paper devotes to this kind of work
in labor, or in dollars and cents.
There are a few other points that
come to mind in this connection. One
is that if in the pressure of making
and printing newspaper, any partic.
ular matter of this kind is neglected
or even partly overlooked, criticism is
quickly heard The other is that nc
matter how much aid a newspaper
may give to any particular project OF
enterprise of a public nature, CON
mendation is seldom accorded in any
way.

Commissioner of Agriculture and I'M
migration E. o. Bruner, in speaking
of the agricultural and immigrtion de-
partment, and Louisiana generally,
said: Every branch of my depart
ment has been active and busy through
out the year.
1.-THE immigration division has done
much good work. We have brought
in many immigrants and thousands
and thousands Of acres of land have
changed hands this year.
IF Louisiana and her many advan-
tages are not known, it is not our
fault, as we are constantly sending
out literature all over the United
States and to foreign countries. 1t
keeps us busy answering inquiries
from people all over this and foreign
countries.
"Six months ago we established a
branch Office on the Canal Zone. Our
object was to thoroughly advertise
Louisiana ON the zone, and to induce
people who had saved up their earn.
ings and desired home of their own,
to come to Louisiana and invest.
"The inspection branch has done
more and better work than ever be-
fore. We inspected fifty-two thousand
tons more than the previous year of
fertilizers and feed stuffs, and after
paying all the expenses of the inspec-
tons, such as salaries for the inspec-
tors, stenographers, clerks and all trav.
cling expenses, we turned over for
analytical and experimental work,
twenty-three thousand dollars, hence
you will see that my department is
not only self-sustaining but a revenue
producer, and under our mode of in
specting, the farmer and consumers
are thoroughly protected. We have
so systematized the work that it makes
it almost impossible to get spurious
goods on the market, There were two
or three attempts, and in each in.
stance the party was caught and pros.
ecuted
"The parish fairs through the state
were not up to the standard, on ac-
count Of the excessive rains in the fall,
but the parish fair spirit has gotten
