The Hou5siore Bros, who are
large land owners in this parish
have adopted a plan Of giving al
rice farmer tenants all the land
they wish up to ten acres, rent
free, for the purpose of encour-
aging home living habits. Their
idea is to induce tenants to plant
potatoes, corn and all such pro-
ducts as will tend to reduce their
dependence on the supply mer-
chant. In doing so they of course
expect to promote a better spirit
of thrift and independence which
in turn will make a far better
class Of tenants. This pan is
well worthy ofemulation by other
landlords, and II practlced gener-
ally, | am sure would go far
towards removing the present
practice among tenants of rob-
bing both land and landlord as
much as possible this year and
move onto another farm next
year--H. c. Fondren in Modern
Farming.
