STILL AT 1T.

The killing that often occurs
at the country dances near Vile
Platte is an evil that should be
corrected. In most pari.hes
dances are only allowed at Ii
censed halls, and these places are
given police protection. If we
remember right in the parishes Of
Acadia and Lafayette the amount
Of license paid by these places is
$500 a year. Now it would be a
good idea for the police jury to
levy a tax of say 800 and force
the owner Of the dance hall to
employ two deputy sheriffs. which
he would have to pay himself.
This would. we believe, remedy
this evil.-ENangeline Banner.

Thus early stalk destruction
duplicates in large measure the
effects Of freezing temperatures.
A conservative increase in Goa
ton acreage over most Of Louisi-
ana is advisable under present
conditions. To make the cotton
planted 2 profitable crop, the best
cultural methods must be adopted
and all means of controlling vice.
vii damage must be used faith
fully and nersistently. Early
destruction Of the green and
growing stalks is the first step.
Where the farmers have the
necessary tools, the best way to
handle the stalks is to chop them
up finely with a stalk cutter or
disc harrow. Then pillow under
as deep as possible, thoroughly
covering all of the chopped up
stalks. If possible, plant some
winter cover crop on the land,
some of the clovers being the best.
This land will then be in splen-
did condition for next years corn
crop.
The next best way is to cut the
stalks, pile and burn them as soon
as leaves, stems and squares will
make a quick blaze. Don't wait
until all the stalk is dry or the
weevil will all hatch and most of
the labor will be in vain.
The effort of each individual
farmer in destroying his stales
will be productive of some good.
Community cooperative effort is
what is required to meet this sit
uation in the best possible way. If
every community in the cotton
section of the State would agree
to DESTROY all cotton stalks by
Nov. 1st at the latest and then
faithfully carry out the agree
ment, it would be worth thousands
of dollars to the cotton farmers
themselves in larger yields in
1916.
This is an "early" cotton crop
and will soon be picked and
housed. This is a splendid chance
to cripple the boil weevil for next

Feed Out Your Hogs Six Weeks
Earlier

In every lot Of hogs on feed
two or three fatten quickly and
actually eat less than others. If
all would fatten like these. the
entire drove would be ready for
the market six weeks earlier, and
to save six weeks feed is an item
that you fully understand.
The hog that fattens easily must
be in prime physical condition.
The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder is

their system clean and healthy

vii next spring. Thus Nature
proves on grand scale the teach

from these experiments show that
one of the most effective means of
boil weevil control is the early
destruction of the green cotton

the growing stalks accomplishes
three things:
