Annette Kellerman.

A great crowd witnessed "Nep-
tunes Daughter" starring An
nette Kellerman at the Evange-
line last night, and the concen-
sus of opinion was that the pic
ture was worth more than the
price as charged by Manager
Loeb. 1t is a well-known fact
that Manager Loeb is charging
less for admission to high-class
pictures than any other thea
ire near or far, and on that
score, the theatre going people
ought to show their apprecia-
ton Of Manager Loeb's liber-
atty by packing his house when
ever it is open.

Minstrel Celebration.

Did YOU hear the noise? II
there was any noise it was made
by the Morgan City minstrel
boys and girls last night at the
X. of c. Hall, who celebrated the
well-merited success of their en-
tertainments given by them a
few nights ago at the Evange-
line Theatre and at Patterson.
They were out in full force Of
beauty and witticism and they
all had royal time. Misses
Edna Gillen. Ollie Hebert, Eu-
nice Terebonne, Genevieve Gre
weinberg, and Irma Ditch up
holded the traditional good look
ing name of Morgan City and
Messrs. Raoul, Eugene and
Charley Delas. Pat Kenney, w.
r. Bouterie, Linus Terrebonne,
Robert Gillen, Will Drews and
L. Roy were the representa-
tives of "mimicry" and ''fun."
Mr.. and Mrs. V. Nunez were al
so of the celebration as willing
chaperones. Snow, snow and
snow and cake was served.
Eugene and Bobby tried to see
if they could eat it all but
Boots" interfered as he want
ed some himself. Why, Raoul
prayed for the lights to 60 out"
can be surmised but his wish
was not granted which was an
excellent thing for the snow"
Miss Ollie Hebert said to have
prayed for "Un Peu d'Amour"
but none came her way. One is
obliged to wonder at such in
credible statement and the
question arises were there no
'amoureux" in the mimic
funny crowd!
The only disappointing fea-
ture of the occasion was the alb
sence of Mr.. C. E. King and Mrs.
King and their little daughter.
It was raining. ***

FEATHER EATING HENS.
Exercise the Most Satisfactory Remedy
For This Vice.


Feather eating is one Of the vicious
habits which fowls acquire when too
closely yardcd and when no given
plenty to do. says Better Farming. Of
ten the only birds thai are not at
tackled are the nes that are doing the
damage to the others. Suspicion
should therefore be attached to them
first. The fowls must therefore be
watched to discover the offenders. Tn
less they are Of special value and un-
less the habit is common in the flock,
it is best to get rid of these birds.
The most satisfactory remedy for
feather pulling is to keep the fowls
busy. Instead of feeding cut bone or
beef scrap in chunks lot the meat be
still attached to the bones and hung
where the fowls will have to jump for
it. Do the same with cabbage, man
gels and other green feed. Strips Of
hard, dry meat are also good because
the fowls will pick at them and thus
be kept busy. Whole grain should nj
ways be fed in the litter so the fowls
v Ill have to scratch for it. The worst
offenders should always be removed
from the flock and made to work for
their living.

FEEDING DAIRY cows.
Economy to Give High Producing Cat
tie All They Will Eat.

\ very comma fault is to feed dairy
cows too s%paringly, this in an attempt
to make the feed OH hand last as long
as possible. I'm some things It is
economy to save" says Professor G. G..
Hayden of the dairy department Of the
Ohio university. but in feeding for
milk it is economy to spend wisely.
Cows Of the right sort which are able
to consume large quantities of feed
are always the greatest money makers.
1t is economy to give them all they
will clean up we'll. Under liberal feed
ing of good producers it requires
around GO per cent Of the feed to main
tain the body of the animal and carry
on the life processes. In meager feed
ing it may require 80 per cent, leaving
only 10 per cent for milk production.
If this is true one COW we'll fed would
return as much milk as four meagerly
fed. 1t is certainly greater economy
to turf 40 per cent of the feed into
milk than 10 per cent. and the latter

CAUSE OF R0PY MILK,
Condition Usually Due to Unclean
Dairy Utensils.

Dairy Utensils.
Stringy or ropy milk is usually due to
a certain class of bacteria which work
upon the casein and albuminoids Of the
milk. says lloard's Dairyman. They
get into it from pals, tanks, watts or
other milking utensils and give to the
milk or cream Il stringy consistency.
Sometimes this infection can be traced
to cattle wading in sloughs or marshes.
In such cases no doubt the bacteria are
carried on the udder and teats. and at
the next milking the freshly drawn
milk is infected. If a needle is dipped
into such milk and then lifted some Of
it will be raised in long threads.
The remedy for this trouble is clean
milking utensils and containers and an
avoidance OF the above mentioned
sloughs. This is only one of the many
reasons for scalding. either with boil
ing water or steam, all milk containers
and for practicing scrupulous clcanli-
ness in milking and handling the milk:
Feed does not affect this trouble.
