4 HEALTHY GROWTH

The Journal is glad to note the activity
in the western part Of the parish. Well-ln-
formed citizens of that section say that
practically ali the open land on Bayou Macon
and Tensas will be farmed the ensuing year
by thrifty white farmers from adjacent
parishes.
The influx of home-seekers into Frank
lin and Richland parishes has taken up all
available lands in these parishes and in cor
sequence there is a marked movement TO
settle on this side of the Macon, where, for
several years successful crops have been
made. 1t now seems reasonably certain
that the next few years will see this the
most populous part Of the parish.
! To see these lands again brought into
use means great deal to the parish, fol
this section has been entirely unproductivt
since the advent of the weevil Land val
ues are increasing throughout the parish
but in no part has there been such a pro
nounced increase in both sale and renta
values as there has been in the seventh anC
eighth wards.

ELECTION BETTING

In regard to the betting on the presi-
Dental contest, the New Orleans States
says:
This year Hughes started fay
orte at 5-to-1. These odds receded
with the failure of his western trim,
but after the Maine election they rose
again to 3-to l. Since then recession
has been steady until now practically
even money has been reached; and thus
Wall Street comedies that what it once
looked upon as as certainty it now
regards as doubtful"
Experience has shown that the betting
in New York is generally fair index to the
political situation.
The big change in betting odds look
good to Wilson supporters.
