TEACHERS INSTITUTES
DISAPPROVED.

The committee of parish superin-
tendents, recently in session at Baton
Rouge, recommended the repeal of the
state institute law. Thus is wisdom
(and incidentally ourselves) indicated
by her children. Our readers know
that we have long opposed the waste
of time and money occasioned by teach
ers Institutes, arguing that the money
can be better employed and that it is
an imposition on the majority of teach
ers, who have already prepared them
selves for their work, to require them
to attend institutes, which in most
instances, rehash old knowledge and
present little that is new, except to
the tyro. 1t is proposed that in repeal
ing the law that the matter of insti-
tutes be left to the individual superin-
tendent, who knows the needs of his
own teachers. 1t is safe to say that in
such case, institutes will be conspicu.
Gus by their absence.

ADVERTISING BACKWARDS.

Of doubtful propriety indeed was the
news story published on the front page
Of the Times-Picayune, one day recent,
ly, recounting the straits that Belgian
family are undergoing in New Orleans.
The newspaper told how little the
strangers had to live on, their discom.
forts, and their inconsistencies, which
were so great that the woman longed
to return to Belgium, although all that
she had had there was swept away.
Why was such a story given front
page position? What good under
heaven could it do, except to advertise
the utter failure of the charity-at-home
people to do their duty? Or it may be
to show how poorly labor is distributed
over the country. For there is no real
reason why any one should suffer in
any part of the United States, if the
need is properly made known, and the
desire to work is sincere. Too often,
newspapers in their eagerness for a
sob story advertise backwards as it
were.

PROGRESSIVE ALWAYS.

The True Democrat appreciated very
much the thanks rendered by Parish
Superintendent of Schools, Mr.. r. E.
Crump, for assistance in promoting
school interests, his communication be-
ing published in last issue. One SEN
tence therein read: Il believe that your
paper is, as rule, progressive along
school lines and should be powerful
influence in bringing about needed i'm
proVements in the school system" The
clause, "as rule" provoked smile
On our part however, as it is our con-
tention and belief that the paper is
ALWAYS progressive along school
lines. Sometimes, we are SO far ahead
of the average school worker as to
seem actually icOnoclastic in our ideas,
as for example in our opposition to
teachers institutes-a cherished idol
of possible institute conductors and
their friends-voicing our opinions on
the subject on every occasion that Of
fered although absolutely unaided by
any one else on the Louisiana press;
and yet, after many days, the parish
superintendent and the State Superin-
tendent have come to that opinion.
Long before Louisiana had cooking
or sewing department in the public
schools, we suggested that these
branches should be taught. We were
also among the first to advocate the
teaching of agricultural subjects in the
schools.
In no controversial spirit, but to keep
the record straight, we must insist that
we are always progressive-and we
always want to help.

MARKETING SWEET CREAM.

The season is almost at hand when
there will be a great demand for sweet
cream for ice cream and other frozen
products. AS a rule the demand for
sweet cream is greater than the supply
even at the increased prices of ten to
fifteen cents per pound butter fat.
One reason why more farmers do not
take advantage of the extra prices for
sweet cream Is that they consider 1t
too much trouble to deliver sweet
cream daily. In most cases it is not
necessary to do this If the milk and
cream are properly handled from the
time it Is produced until it Is delivered.
The following points should be OBJ
served:
/. Use covered milk pail.
2. Previous to milking wipe the cows
udder and tanks with damp cloth.
3. Use hand separator and separate
the milk Immediately after milking.
4. Cool the cream to as low a tenn.
perature as possible.
s. Do not mix night and morning
cream until the last separation has
been cooled to the same temperature
as the first.
6. Wash and scald the separator
bowl and tinware after each separation.
Z Separate as thick cream as pos.
sible, preferably 35 to 40 per cent
butter-fat. Thick cream keeps better
than thin, and more skim milk is left
for the young stock.
There are several cheap and efficient
methods of cooling and holding sweet
cream. If finances will not permit one
of the more expensive coolers, get an
ordinary molasses barrel and saw it in
two about midway, making a tub in
which can be placed a five-gallon milk
can. Connect this tub with the pump
so that the fresh cold water is carried
to the bottom. Provide an overflow by
boring a hole a few inches below the
top edge Of the tub. Cool the cream by
constantly changing the water and stir
ring the cream occasionally. Insulating
the tub with dry sawdust or cotton
seed hulls will assist in holding the
temperature low during the hottest
season. In case 1t is necessary to haul
the cream any distance when the
weather is hot, it is we'll to wrap the
can in wet cloth or sack.-J. M. Cad

NOT THE MILLENNIUM YET.

The Abbeville Meridional has too
optimistic faith in the chicken raiser
when he calls upon that individual to
shut up his chickens, because forsooth,
the feathered fiends will damage the
neighbors' gardens. What chicken
raiser ever cared anything about his
neighbours garden? If there is such a
being, he should be exhibited as a
freak of nature. Garden-growers would
certainly pay out good money to feast
their eyes upon such an extraordinary
human being, For the usual chicken
raiser feels no obligation to conflne
his poultry. The burden Of protection,
he considers, should lie on the other
fellow, and the scratching up of seed
and the busting hollows his chickens
make are looked upon as mere vaga-
ries as amusing as when baby pulls
out bald mans last hair.
