Mrs. S. H. Barrow sends in large
package of magazines for the convicts.
This should serve as reminder to the
many other kind-hearted persons, who
make a practice of passing on their
periodicals to the unfortunate men and
women at Angola. The True Democrat
much regrets that through general
oversight no box has been sent there
from st, Francisville since early fall,
and suggests that immediate efforts
may be made to get box there early
in January. Send in the magazines you
have finished reading to this Office,
so that box may be shipped at once.

SCORES GIVEN DIARIES.

The State Board of Health, through
it's dairy department, has finished the
inspection of diaries in East Baton
Rouge and East and West FeIiciana
parishes.
In these three parishes there are
eighty-three dairies shipping milk
either to New Orleans or to Baton
Rouge. The total average score for
East Baton Rouge parish is sc, for
West Feliciana "a and for East Felici.
ana 60. This is the best record ever
made by these dairies.
In East Baton Rouge only two
dairies came below the requirements
Of the State Board of Health; in East
Feliciana four came below the require
ments, and in West Feliciana only one.
Immediate steps have been taken to
correct. these conditions. One dairy
man already has been ordered to stop
the sale of milk on account of insani-
tary conditions surrounding his dairy.
At this time the dairymen of these
three parishes are milking 100 COWS,
and are getting 1900 gallons of milk
per day. This is a poor record, and
shows the necessity for lettering the
breed OF cattle to produce more milk.
The five dairies scoring highest in
East Baton Rouge parish are as fol-
lows: Louisiana State University, 81;
S. l. Raymond, 95.75; Deaf and Dumb

An unfortunate incident occurred at
the l.. r. & N. station Friday about
noon. The town marshal of Bayou
Sara had couple of little negro boys
under arrest on charge of stealing
wood. The grandmother of the boys,
a woman apparently about seventy-fve
years old, came over to the station to
see about the boys. The old woman
was excited and talked to the marshal
little louder than was her usual
custom. He ordered the old woman
out of the station. When she failed
to bulge, the marshal seized a broken
Ratchet and rained blow after blow
with the instrument upon the face and
head of the old woman, until he was
finally pulled off her by bystanders.
This harsh treatment was uncalled for
and will no doubt have its sequel in
the courts,

WANT HOG LAW.

The True Democrat is informed that
there is well developed sentiment in
favor of having the police jury adopt
some ordinance which will prevent the
running at large of hogs. This nui-
sance has grown intolerable to many
people who are engaged in truck and
potato growing. Those interested ex-
pect to appear before the police jury
at its next meeting and ask for the
necessary relief to protect them from
this source in future.

PET DOG BITES BOY.

Edgar Lejeune is carrying around a
sore left hand in consequence Of bite
received from his fox terrier last Mon.
day, Dec. q. Edgar had the dog on
his shoulder to prevent it from getting
down to fight another dog, whereupon
the pet bit its master. The wound is
apparently doing nicely, although the
boys hand is somewhat swollen. 1t
was not considered necessary to give
him the Pasteur treatment as the dog
was perfectly we'll.

that would supply safeguards sug-

table service in the financial crisis
which followed the war panic of last
August. 1t probably will be remem-
bered longest for this service to the
Wilson administration. 1t was origin
ally provided that the law should ex-
pire on June 90, 1914, but fortunately
this time was extended for one year
by the provisions of the Federal re-
serve act.
1t was not desired that the Federal
reserve act should be put into opera
ton without any support, and the Aid
rich-Freeland law was made to lap
over the new. permanent banking act
The emergency currency issued last
year under the Aldrich- Vreeland law
has been retired 1t is stated that
there was less than 100000 to be
automatically retired by the expira-

An aggregate of s3S2,502,S45 of this
