RURAL ROUTE FOR WELSH.

Information comes that Welsh is to
have Rural Free Delivery mail route
The route was worked up and the re-
quired list of patrons secured about a
year ago and the matter has been
hung up with the United States Post
Office Department until now the report
comes that the route will be put on
July first. The route as established
is q IL, miles in length and lies in
rather circutouS route South of town.
The directions will be about as follows:
Starting from Welsh the route will
extend due South to Bayou Chienne,
thence West to Alcie Hebert'S, thence
North to SanSire Daigles', thence East
to L. L. Demarie's, thence East to the
road the route went out on and then
retrace one mile to Nelson Boucher's
corner, thence West to A. E. Bourgeois
thence North to L. j. Bowers, thence
West to John Boling's, thence South to
Dema Hardy's, thence West to Etienne
Hardy's, thence South to the Ardoin
School House, thence North to Eloi
Hebert's, thence directly East back to
Welsh.
It is understood that Mr.. S. E.
CARROLL will he selected as carrier. Mr..
Carroll was most active in working up
the route in the beginning and has
passed the required examination and is
really the only applicant in Welsh who
has taken the examination. :.
The establishment of this route will
add much to the convenience OF the
people South of of town, and no doubt
other routes leading out of Welsh will
follow at an early date.

FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION

There is beginning to be some talk of
fourth of July celebration in Welsh.
1t is now only five weeks till the fourth
The custom has been in vogue for a
long time in Welsh and arrangements
should begin to assume definite shape
in order that ample time may be
had for preparing program to fitting
ly celebrate the occasion.
We have a number of Congressional
Candidates who no doubt would be
glad of an opportunity to meet the
voters of Welsh besides other features
that may be provided for the occasion,
We think meeting should be called
right away and committees appointed
to take the matter in hand and would
like to see somebody issue a call.

SMALLER SIZE SILOS.t
Editor Rice Belt Journal. A
Dear Sir

Will you permit me Ia spate in your
paper on Silos?
After studying the question for a
long time and giving the same icareful
thought, have come to th& conclusion
that smaller size SiloS writ give the
best satisfaction from year.to year.
see by the best of farm papers, such as
the Kansas City Star, Southern Rural.
list, etc. that they advocate the same
plan. If | were a farmer | should
build silos of say, rs ton capacity each,
and if Il wanted one hundred ton of
ensilage put up, should build four
SmallloneS, rather then one large one.
IIshouid also build of permanent
materials, even though could only
build one year, now let me give few
of the reasons as see them:
The top of ensilage exposed to the
air will spoil, hence the larger the
diameter of the silo, the greater the
loss, so that the greater the dept the
ensilage is fed each time, the less the
loss on top.
Another reason for smaller sizes:
In a short crop year for instance,
suppose man could only half fill a
hundred ton silo, would it be economy
to half fill one with adiameter of say IA
or l6 feet or more? Would not the loss
be greater than if smaller ones were
filled, most certainly. Then as the
thing is as yet new with us and we
need to study the different kinds of for.
age to grow for filling, such as Kaff1r
Corn, Milo Maise, Sorghum, corn, etc.
and as we do not know which of the
above mentioned kinds are best for
horses and mules, and which are best
for cattle, would it not be a better plan
TO fill one silo with corn, and another
with Kaff1r Corn and another zone with
something else, if we had it, rather
than mixing it all in one big one? 1t
seems to me it would.
Now in regard to height of silo, it
don't seem very inviting to me to
have to climb say IS to 40 feet in
the air every time | should start feed.
ing from full silo, and l am used to
climbing too. also how many times a
month would most farmers climb UP to
its top to tighten the hoops when silo
is empty and begins to shrink? be.
lieve the life of a 100 ton wooden silo
will be about four years. time will tell
if | am right. If | am right, you can
figure the cost.
Now as to cost, believe the cost of
say rs ton siloS will cost less, built out
of permanent material such as cement
and brick, than one 100 ton, build of
wood.
In conclusion let me say that am
not writing this to solicit trade, as
most of the time have all / can do in my
line of work. have thought for some
time to speak on the subject, for the
reason that like to see our section of
the state develop permanently and will
not 90 into anything blindly.
Thanking you for your valuable
space, am yours respectfully,

VOTE DOWN
THE BOND ISSUE

Fenton, La, May rs, 1914,-In re.
plying to an article in the Herald
will say that the voters of this com.
munity would act very wisely to vote
down both propositions since we have
a proposition to have both a Court
House and jail for jefferson Davis
Parish furnished yet for eight years
We admit that the Judge called the
attention of the Police Jury to the
matter and that it was necessary for
that body to act. We feel that if the
proper thing had been done demand
would have been made on the Town OF
Jennings to fulfill her obligation in
furnishing a Parish Jail and Court
House instead ofasking the people ofthe
Parish to do it for them by increasing
the tax burden. The Parish is already
loaded with taxes to meet the debts Of
the Parish that are daily accruing.
admit that it would be fine to the eye
to ride into Jennings and feast the eye
upon a hundred and twenty-five thous,
and dollar Court House and Jail. But
as matter of fact when seriously
thought of it was really a surprise to
us and the meaning could hardly be
realized when the notice of the bond
issue appeared in the papers. We
naturally supposed we had a Court
House and Jail for ten years. We
ask, what has become of that Jennings
City Hall that was given to jefferson
Davis Parish about two years ago for
a Court House.
l ask the honest and abiding voters
of the parish of Jefferson Davis
to go to the polls on the second day OF
June and stamp out the bond issue.
The matter is in our hands now, but
after the bonds are issued and the
taxes are due it will be too late to
correct the mistake and you will have
to meet for years to come the bond
tax. Stamp out the proposition while
the dew is on the weed. Go to the
polls early. Tell your friends that this
bond issue means more tax burdens for
years to come, the very thing they
are now complaining of being over.
loaded with. This is question that
concerns vitality the tax payer Of this
