attention to new vniye. bean.
This bean las CITY been in the coun-

the old speckled Florida bean, both
in the production of seed and in size.
It keeps we'll through the winter and
cattle will eat them while they walk
ever the old bean. The punches are
much longer and more beans in the /

peas or Florida beans. The name
of this bean is the Yokahomea. Get
some this season and try them
This parish needs more corn than
she has been producing and one of
the quickest ways to increase ine
yield is to get good seed. Corn is
the main stake ON every farm and
we should see that we produce the
largest yield possible on every acre
we plant in 1915.
l am going to get up large order
of Calhoun's red cob seed corn, and
! request every farmer in this parish
who is interested in making more
corn to the acre with no increase in
cost. to write me at once. This corn
is grown almost entirely in north
Louisiana and down as far as Lake
Charles. 1t has q red cob, yellow
grain and produces from one to two
ears to the stalk. 1t is a general
corn crop and not to be gotten
from any seed house to be grown
for the birds and weevils to eat.
1t has taken the prize at the State
Fair for two years and no farmer
will lose anything by planting his
entire crop in it this year. Write
me If you wish to get in line with
US In getting good seed corn.

hay crops, and all should be, should

HOPE FOR PEACE

There AZ last seems 10 be some

administration In calling six South
American republics into conference
with this government This. Of
course II an Acknowledgement OF the
practical failure OF the former poll.
cies OF dalliance the United States
has engaged in. The conference.
which began its sessions yesterday.
Is composed OF representatives OF Ar
gentine. Brazil. Chile. Bolivia. Uru-
quay and Guatemala. The fret three
countries participated in what was
known a. the A. p. c. mediation.
which failed to mediate. But some
experience was gained by that ven
ture that will be useful in the present
effort to restore peace.
II II forecasted that out OF this
conference will issue an ultimatum
addressed to the three factional lead
ers that peace must be established
within at least sixty days. II peace
should not materialize. the United
States. acting with the six South
and Central American powers. win

that the United States and these pow
ers will recognize some individual OF
the Madero Constitutional regime,
such rs Tagle. Lascurain. or some
other in the line Of succession after
the death Of Msdero and his vice pres
ident; that this provisional president
OF Mexico will be sustained when the
PROVISION present has been named.
the powers by embargo will stop the
shipment of arms and munitions OF
war to Mexico. except in aid OF the
leader named. This seems TO be n
reasonably hopeful scheme and ought
to be pushed with the strictest OBJ
servance Of the letter as well as the
spirit. The time for trifing has long
ago elapsed.

A CHASTENED SPIRIT

The most interesting observation
made on Col Roosevelts announce
ment that he would remain in the
Progressive ranks comes from New
England. where. IL is said. the Colo
mel was observed 10 wink the other
eye. so TO speak. when he made his
declaratory statement. II has not
shaken the belief OF New England Re
publicans that the former President
IL virtually back in the Republican
party. but has simply served notice
upon them that he proposes to be a
factor in 1916. II has been regarded
generally in New England as indica-
ting the Rooseveltian purpose to re
main in a position OF vantage in next
years campaign. from which to
threaten unacceptable candidates
and prevent the nomination by the
next Republican National Convention
OF what has come to be called re
dictionary"
This. Of course. Is speculative But
there is one thing TO note about the
change of front the Bull Moose chief.
tain presents in the softening OF all
his asperities OF speech in referring
10 those Progressives who have re-
turned and are now returning to the
Republican fold. II is really a chas-
tened spirit that purrs now that was
ont TO below anathema maranatha
after the deserters How mild his
words to those Progressives in New
York who have vowed to fight no
more az Armageddon. 1T has been
fine OF them" he says. TO have made
the great fight they have made during
the past three years for progressive
principles. and am sure they are act
ing conscientiously in the step hey
now take and with the purpose OF
doing what they regard as most use
full TO the community"
Gone is the former epithet. the NAL
ediction. the communicative anger.
Nothing but sweet. speeding words
They fall like benediction with all
the graciousness OF an actual blessing
mingled with a yearning to be with
them al the feast of the prodigals
And IL makes Victor Murdock's rau-
cous cry coming out OF the west
sound like a Russian claim OF victory.

To gain a clear conception or
the rapid Transformation the

must bear in mind that a human

TO cover from rs to 80 years.
SO there are. az most. four gener-
atoms In a century.
A century ago. the population
OF this country was only $500 900.
In the four generations interven-
ing. tie population has increased
almost twelye-fold.
During the FIRST half OF that
period. from 1915 to 1865. the in

four and a half millions. where
as the total population increased
by more than twenty-five millions.
II may be roughly estimated
that. at the time when the Civil
War broke out. the total census
OF the Colonial race I'm America
was about twenty.seven millions
OF large proportion OF these Il
could be said that their ancestors
came to America early I'm the sew

chances that this figure is Just

In no single year OF the present
