KING COTTON'S RETURN

The cotton gin at this place is
again IN full blast, and it looks
something like old times to see
wagons loaded with cotton in the
sred coming in to the gin. Messrs.
VOORHEES, & Bergerle are the pro-
prietors Of the gin and are doing
very we'll so far. They have just
started and up to last Saturday
they had turned out "a bales,
bought 80, 900 lbs of seed cotton,
and sold carload of seed to the
Alexandria mill. They paid as
high as $53 for cotton and got as
much as s34 per ton for their seed.
Sandoz & Suberbielle, the corn
buyers here, bought some 1000
bls of corn last week, paying
81 90 per bbl of IA lbs The
corn was then put through the
shelter and made ready for ship
ment. The yield of corn has been
very good this year throughout
this section as we gather from all

the grain there should be q world

PAYING HIGH PRICE FOR
UNPREPAR PAREDNESS,

The American people have DC
adequate conception of their On
preparedness, aud only an inkline
of the high price they are paying
for it. Congress is just passing
and President Wilson will soon
sign an aIfny reorganization bill
that continues the national guard
AZ our second line Of land defense,
the regular army being the first.
1t il very doubtful if enough
young men will volunteer under
the proposed enlargement to give
us a guard as numerous as that of
Switzerland But it's cost will be
many times that of Swrilzerland's.
AS the Saturday Evening Post
puts it
'The United States IS urged to
adopt Switzerland's system of
preparedness for war. That re
public gives military instruction
10 the public schools; then all
able bodied males up to 80 years
OF age are required to train for
short period each year, after
which-up to 4S-they are enroil
ed in the reserve This gives the
country a fairly efficient militia,
whose first line comprises about
200, 600 men-although figures
that pretend to be authoritative
vary cOnsiderably-with reserve
about as numerous
"Now the cost Of this system,
IN the last year before the war,
was a little over $1,000, 900. For
a first line militia less numerous
than Swilzertand's, and doubtless
less efficient, we propose to pay
out of the federal treasury S75,.
900 900 a year, in addition to
whatever sums the 48 states ex
pend.
els that not something besides
the militia in Switzerland's sys.
TEN that we might adoptV
The chief reason for the vast
in cost is that we pro
pose 10 hire men TO vOlunteer-to
tempt them into the service with
offers of increased pay-while
compels it's citizens to
render service rs a duty to the
state.
To the young American we say,
You can render military service
Dr. not; we leave it all to you"
TO the Swiss boy his government
says: "You must take physical
in school; and when you
sre 20 years of age you must en-
oil in the citizen army for the
;ouDtry's safety and Defense"

BURKE PLACE SOLD.

! On last Saturday the Burke
Place, in the Fifth ward of this
parish was sold ut Sheriff Sale tt
satisfy judgments aggregating
exclusive Of interest and attorneys
fees, S28,872 SO. The property
was composed of several small
tracts which were purchased and
combined by the late K A. Pharr.
The Jas. L Burke Place, at
Burke Station, on the Morgan's
La & Tex r r was the centra al
point around which the other
properties clustered.
The Nelson properties were sub
sequently acquired. These tracts,
some three of them, originally con-
stituted the holdings of William
Nelson, the father of Paul Nelson,
the latter having been the last
Chief Of the Charenton Indians
They were absorbed by the Burke
Place.
The PEBBLES plantation, compos
ed principally of Section SO, less
some so acres, carried the aggre
gate acreage up to nearly a thou.
sand acres. These lands were 10
Gated on the west shore of Span
ish Lake and embraced some of
the richest farm land in this par
ish.
According to various estimates
placed upon the property, the
place was worth between forty
five and fifty thousand dollars in
normal times. It was devoted
principally to the growing of cane.
The loss of several cane crops by
adverse weather conditions, fol
lowed BY inimltsble sugar legisla
tion of the past three years,
brought about those conditions
which sent the place under the
hammer. The Leon Godchaux
Co, Limited, was foreclosiDg
creditors and the only bidder at
the sale. The property was adjn
licated to them at their only bid
of s25, $50.

THE LANDRY WRECK.
The East bound California
de Luxe Crashes into a
Switching Freight Train,
in a Binding Rain.

! On last Monday Afternoon the
people Of this city were thrown
into fever of excltemet by the
reception of the news that the
California de Luxe train. east
bound, had cut switching
freight train in two, derailed and
upset the de Luxe locomotive,
and demolished some four of five
freight cars, some two miles west
OF the New Iberia railroad depot
and about mile east of Segura
station. The de Luxe engine
broke away from its train and
rolled over onto its side in the
neutral ground between the double
tracks. The engineer and fremeD
OF the overturned engine, unaided,
crawled out of their cab, bit
confused and somewhat dazzed by
the experience.
The freight, bound westward,
was ordered to take the sidetrack
at this point so as to allow passen
ger train No. Z to go ahead of the
freight. After No. Z went through,
the freight proceeded to get back
on TO her track
The switch at this point lays on
the south side of the double track.
In order to get back to the track

Before the southern track could be
cleared the de Luxe train ap.
preached on the south side track,
running at 30 miles per hour. A
rain was falling at the
time, The de Luxe train cut the
freight train In two at the point
where there were several cars
loaded with lumber. The de
Luxe locomotive wrecked and
scattered this lumber in manner
not easy to described, and buried

earth.

II is not advisable to feed an entire

grains and fowls cannot digest as
much whole grain In a day as they
can ground grain. The more they
can digest the faster the growth and
the better the egg production.
A properly balanced ration must
contain both whole. cracked and
ground grains. Either fed alone never
produce the best results. 1t is not
advisable To feed entirely on ground
grains because the crop and gizzard
are there for several purposes. One
of them is to grind up the whole
grains into smaller particles.
