A Native Corn That's a Winner.

A typewriter sheet before US gives
the yields of eighteen varieties of corn
tested at the North Louisiana Expert
ment Station at Calhoun last year. And
it should be of interest to the Banners
readers to learn that the yield of the
seed furnished by one of our neighbors,
Mr.. J. M. Sentell, who owns and farms
the Cairo plantation, located across Red
River from Benton, tops those of all
others.
The eighteen different varieties of
seed in this contest came from fourteen
/ different sources in this State, Georgia,
Texas and Mississippi, and all were
grown on the same type of soil, planted
on the same date, given the same cult
walton, and the same kind and amount
of fertilizer.
AS to the yields, that of Sentell's
White Dent was 33.5 bushels per acre.
Fifth in the list is Stewards White
Dent-31 bushels per acre. This seed
was furnished by Mr.. N. w. Stewart of
Ward Four, who secured his original
seed from Mr.. Sentell. The yield of
Stewards Yellow Dent was 25.3 bushels
per acre. That of the Square Deal seed
furnished by Mr.. John Glassell of Bel
cher 219 bushels per acre.
In establishing this native variety of
corn, which is beginning to be recognize
ed as one of the leading Southern vari-
cites, Mr.. Sentell has won for himself
distinction in this line of endeavor and
achieved for the community mark of
success to be coveted. In developing
this corn he has devoted ten years of
pains-taking care and close selection, of
course, at all times in the seed to be
planted from year to year. His efforts
have not only been coupled with indus
try, but it must be recognized that he
has thorough knowledge of what is
good corn and this must have been OBJ
tanned only from close observation and
study.
1t should be gratifying to Mr.. Sentell's
friends to know that at last years State
Fair his corn won every premium enter
ed for and sweepstakes for the best corn
shown in open competition, and repeated
this in the colored division of the fair.
This within itself should fully compen-
safe for his years of labor in developing
this variety of corn.
Sentell's White Dent Corn has, as it
were, fairly leaped into popular favor.
And we learn from reliable source that
he has at present no seed for sale and is
daily advising prospective purchasers of
that fact. s-
Here's to you, Mr.. Sentell, for trying;
and again, here's to you for not being
satisfied with anything short of success.
May you live to see the average yield OF
Sentell's White Dent Corn yet double.

The following warrants were drawn:
Second Good-Roads Meeting.

The second meeting to further the in
terests of the construction of graveled
road across Ward Six to the Webster
Parish line and to connect with the pres
emit east and west improved road in Road
District No. was held in Haughton
last Saturday. DR.. J. E. Rocks of that
place, named to act as Secretary for the
meetings, under date of the 9th, furnish
es the Banner the following report:
Dear SIR: Our second good roads
meeting was held to-day, and in point
of number in attendance and enthusiasm
far outclassed anything that has trans
pired in Haughton and Ward Six in a
long time.
We had present many good-roads adj
vocates from Shreveport, Ward Three
of Webster Parish, Doyline and other
points.
Messrs. j. T. Bullen, Caddo Parish
Engineer, and Andrew Currie, jr., Sec
rotary for the Shreveport Automobile
Club, both good-roads experts, address,
ed the meeting.
Every one in attendance was unani-
nous in the opinion that it was highly
desirable to extend the construction of
the gravel road from it's present termi-
nus, Red Chute, to the Webster line by
way of Haughton, and the strongly rep
resented delegation from Doyline and
Ward Three of Webster Parish gave
every assurance of their determination
to continue same on to Minden, the two
wards (of Bossier and Webster) CO.
operating and working harmoniously
together.
The meeting instructed that petition
be gotten up and presented at the next
meeting of the Police Jury, asking that
body to order an election for same and
to defray the expense of the preliminary
survey to be made by Mr.. w. E. Atkins,
State Highway Engineer. 1t is propos-
ed that the road shall be constructed in
compliance with the rules and regula-
tions and under the supervision of the
State Highway Department, thereby
being in line for State aid, which we will
need.
AS stated in previous issues of the
Banner, residents of Webster Parish are
anxious that this road be constructed
and propose to extend it from the parish
line to Minden. Already the Webster
Parish Police Jury has made an appro-
priation of 5000 for preliminary survey
of that portion of the road to lead
through their parish. When the neces-
sary funds have been raised the State
will be asked to supervise the construc-
ton of the road under the provisions Of
its highway regulations.
Aparagraph on this subject appearing
in an article in last weeks issue of our
Minden exchange, the Signal-Democrat,
reads: "Doyline, or Ward Three, ex-
poets to build from the Bossier Parish
line to Murrel's Point, on Dorcheat
Bayou, then Minden, or Ward Four, will
be expected to complete the road into
town. Under this arrangement Ward
Three will have nine miles of road to
build and Ward Four will have nearly
three miles.

The BosSier Parish Fair.

To the Stockholders of the Bossier Parish Fair
Association.
Since the close of the last fair two at
tempts have been made to elect a new
board of directors. 1t is getting time we
were deciding what we will do as fair
association during 1915.
On the Goth we want to meet in Plain
Dealing at two o'clock pm. for the pur-
pose of electing new board of direct
ors. We must have a majority of the
stock represented to have an election,
so we want to urge all stockholders to be
present, or send in their proxies. Be
present if you can.
We must have good Secretary. Look
around and see who will serve. This is
important, if we want fair this year.
Don't forget the date of the meeting,
