Did you plant your garden for the
bugs and beetles or for yourself and
family? If for the bugs just let them
go ahead and when they have finish
ed feed them on for next neason so
there will be plenty on hand to clean
up the garden quicker than this sea-
son. II the garden Is for yourself
and family then take pains to spray
and kill out the beetles and bugs in
order to save this crop as we'll as
to hold them in check for next year.
Every bug killed now means several
hundred less for next season, as we
all know they multiply rapidly.
Some of them. the Irish potato beetle
for instance. will grow from pain
in first week in April to ten thousand
by the end Of May. Boil weevils will
increase from two in May to as high
as one hundred thousand by frost,
and more too, according to the gov
eminent officials. KILL THE BUGS
NOW. Do not wait for them to dis
appear. l gave the formula a few

last season (1915), as the crop was
ruined by the prolonged drought.
This season when we had the fruit of
good quality. apparently, we receiv-
ed poor prices for it. Fruit leaving
Hammond in good condition in many
cases arrived in Chicago in bad con-
dition and had to be dumped into
the lake. There is cause for con-
ditions like this. One Of the main
reasons is for the past two seasons
we have tried to get along without
could not get it. The Tangipahoa
any potash due to the fact that We
growers have never experienced such
cv0nditions before on as big scale
and they too think it was shortage
of potash in the soil that caused the
berry to carry bad. A berry rich in
potash will look glossy, or as the boy
would say greasy" and will hold
this appearance for at least three
days. Fruit when about half ripe
without this glossy shine will not
keep long enough for the commission
merchant to receive them and reshin
to smaller towns in the North. We
must have some potash next season
or not grow the crop-one or the
other. Land that has been fertilized
heavy for ten or more years with a
mixture containing potash salt will
make good crop, but where the land
is new or only been in cultivation g
few years failure Is almost certain as
far as shipping berry is concerned
believe the fertilizer companies viii.
be able to raise the potash content
of their mixtures next, season, and il
they do that will relieve us to a great
extent.
Another reason why we do not get
be ter prices for the berries that did
not arrive in good condition was the
great acreage put in this crop. Ac-
cOrding to the latest report of the
United States Department of Agri.
culture the strawberry acreage in the
United States has or was increased
this season nearly 20 per cent OF
1888 acres more than last season
When we consider that fourteen
Southern States alone grew one hun.
bred thousand acres we can begin tt
grasp the importance of the above
stated increase in acreage. Tennes
see leads in the number of acres with
17,479; Louisiana second with 49,.
$40, and Arkansas third with 1880
l am no prophet but l would wager
that next year will be the year to
grow berries IL we can get the fer
tilizer. Hundreds of small, as well
as large, farmers are so much dis.
gusted with the crop that the acre.
! age will be reduced much more neN'
season than it was increase blast
When everybody seems to be tired Of
a crop and thinks Of quitting then
] is time to make an effort to grow
more Of that crop than ever. Those
who had Irish potatoes this season
made good money. They received
good prices and the yield was good
Farmers had not made any money ii
potatoes In two years and as seed wa.
high this past spring the acreage wa.
cut nearly so per cent. The SAM
thing will happen next season in the
berry crop. Make preparations t.

A NEGLECTED OPPORTUNITY.

1t is an incontrovertable fact that
agriculture is the basis of all pros
perity, and our parish has wisely pro
vided farm demonstrator to show
you how to raise bigger and better
crops. But there must be q marke
for the produce that cannot be use,
at home, else the crops become al
expense.
To take care of the increased yeild
cooperative methods OF marketin.
and home canning clubs are encOuag-
ed by our state and federal agricul
tural departments. Something is be
ing done in our parish along these
lines. We have canning clubs. W.
also have q Farmers Association
But as yet the activity and useful
ness of either is limited.
Probably less than 10 per cent o
the produce grown locally finds |;
profitable market. There is q temp
tation to feed the unsold crops un.
wisely to stock, and even to use them
too largely on the family table. OF
ten this diet is lacking in variety and
is poorly balanced in food ingredi-
ents. The result ultimately Is con-
dition Of lowered vitality that UNITS
both man and beast for the highes'
grade of work and encourages sick
ness.
The logical outlet for crops thai
the producer cannot probably dis.
pose of in the open market is 4
commercial cannery. This parish il
fortunate in having q cannery. bu
1t is claimed that it does not receive
sufficient support either from the
investor. the farmer or the consum
er to keep it alive, yet 1t has showr
that each of these share in the bene
fits-the farmer through the sale o
his produce. the investor in the prof
its of the business, and the consume,
in the cheaper price at which local.
packed goods can be purchased. Tt
| illustrate: The cannery pays AZ
cents a bushel for sweet potatoes
sells the consumer canned beans a
cents, and has shown. 1t il claimed
that 1t can pack goods at a profit
II this is true, why do We not sup
port it, Can you point out an enter
prise that would benefit more peopl.
investors, merchants, EN-
ployees, consumers?
Ask your progressive farmers wha'
are the most profitable local crop.
and the answer will be sweet pc
tatoes and cane. Now It is will
| sweet potatoes that the cannery i.
most concerned, and 1t Is a crop tina
is known to be sure and the leas
liable to drought or other unfavor
able conditions, but 1T is not general
ly known that 1t can be grown fol
i about Is cents abushel. The secre
of cheap production is to use improv
ed varieties, to grow large acreages
and to employ proper cultural ant
harvesting methods.
The canning company is reporte,
to have just purchased new machin
cry that will enable 1t to do NOR,
and better work, and 1t now make
| its final appeal to farmers to grow
the necessary potatoes for the com
| ing crop and for the financial SUP
port of the enterprise.
This article will be followed at Al
early date by directions for the cul
ture of sweet potatoes. In genera
the yello varieties are desired TO
canning purposes.

NOTICE TO CATTLE OWNERS.

Due to the presence Of "balckleg
in one section Of the parish l think
it wise to give the full symptoms OF
the disease. One man has already
lost some seven or eight head anu
mad to have his entire herd vaccinat
ed with blackleg vaccine. According
to DR.. E. NJ. Ranck. State Vetinarias,
for Texas, where the disease mas
been for years, blackleg can be founl
or diagnosed in the following man
ner:
There is usually a large swelling
in either the front or hind leg, ia
v0lving the entire quarter. Thi
swelling will crackle under pressure
due to the presence Of gas, generated
by the bacteria which causes the dis
ease. AS a rule the swelling does
not extend below the knee or hook
If the calf dies very suddenly of this
disease without swelling, a post NOR.
tenn examination will show the blood
and muscles to be black and frothy
and foul odor will be given OF, due
to the accumulation of gas in the
tissues.
This disease cannot be cured, and
when q pasture becomes infected
preventative measures must be taken
at once. All young animals running
on pastures exposed should be vac.
cinated every spring against blacklea
by the injection of q small pellet
containing the virus under the skin
on the side of the neck. These pei
lets may be bought from New Or
leans druggists and may be used by
any farmer by following instructions
on package.
All animals that die of the disease
should be burned.
Notice your cattle and the-frst one
seen limping around and later die!
