SWEET
|. POTATOES AND
D E M A N D

In our last issue, through typo
graphical error, 1t was made to APP
pear that the cannery is paying soc
a bushel for sweet potatoes. The
price paid heretofore has never been
more than 40c, but because OF the
heavy orders Tor canned potatoes the
cannery announces that it will pay,
until further notice, 45c. Ship early
to take advantage Of this price, and
ask for shipping dates before MAX
ing car lot shipments. TO-day's Of
fetal quotations from New Orleans
are 40c and less.
For various reasons the offerings
to the cannery do not meet the de-
mand. The principal reason is that
the crop is short. Another is the
mistaken idea that at 40c it is more
profitable to feed potatoes to hogs.
1t has been repeatedly shown that
potatoes are grown Z this parish at
cost of 18c per bushel, and some
parishes report the cost as low as
nOc. BESIDES, some varieties, like
the Triumph and Porto Rican pro-
duce the enormous yield of 4OC
600 bushels per acre-a very profit
able crop at even 35c.
AS hog food the potato is lack
ing in protein, the bone and flesh
forming element. For this reason
q dollars wor of potatoes is not
worth a dollars worth of grain as
feed, and the farmer who feeds it
exclusively is robbing his hogs and
himself.
Now is the time to start turning
the land for next years crop. Fall
plowing, except where the soil wash
es extensively, has many advantages.

where ON the show circuit.
In the boys corn club contest the
Louisiana boys defeated their Missis-
sippi brothers. 4
It is a great show, in great place
and in a great State. Those OF you
that attended our own st. Tammany
Parish Fair saw some fine cattle and
some excellent hogs, fine corn, cane
and other splendid exhibits. Now,
have something to say to you:
Hop on the train Sunday morning,
November 1S, 1916, go to the Nation
al Farm and Stock Show at New Or
leans, and when you come back and
don't tell US that the cattle and hogs
we had at our fair here were mere
vest-pocket issues compared to the
size of hogs you will have seen there'
/ will have missed my guess, and
that without any reflection ON the
auality Of our own stuff. Please al
80 remember that the finest of the
finest you will see over there, with
the exception of two or three ex-
hibits, and grown and raised by our
Southern boys and girls and South
ern men and women. No one could
ever again successfully tell you that
nobody in the South can accomplish
ANYTHING worth while. You can
make the entire trip next Sunday,
including admission to the fair for
$3.50. II you want to spend any
more, that will be your private busi-
ness. You could not obtain for a
81 900 in any other way what you
| can get there in knowledge for the
$1.6O. l should have liked to have
j gone more into details of the various
features Of this great fair but neither
the time nor the space will allow.
