Deet towns.
In our own state of Montana, you
will find a repetition of the same
stiry around Billings l was partic-
ularly interested to find that Carey
land on the Billings project, which a
few years ago was sold for $35 per
acre, including the water. has re-
cen Unchanged hands at prices con-
siderably over 500 per acre. The
sugar beet is mainly responsible.
AS you know, the Billings sugar
mill has contracted to take this year
the product of about 1000 acres
from the irrigated territory north
west of Great Falls, and it is ear
nestly to be hoped that every indi-
vidual farmer will give his patch of
beet ground the most careful and in
telligent cultivation OF which he is
capable, in order to prove to the
sugar mill people that we have not
only the soil and the water, but also
the disposition.
If all do their best, I believe we
will get mill somewhere in this
territory in the near future. When
we do our irrigated territory will
just have started.-COnrad Observer

THE JEFFERSON FAIR.

The first annual fair of the Jeffer-
son Parish Fair Association, Inc, IS
TO be given at Gretna during the COM
ing week, opening Wednesday, the
27th inst, and continuing until Sun
day, October /, inclusive, and The
Chief but voices the unanimous SEN
timent of this community in express
ing the hope and belief that the en-
terprise will be a conspicuous sue
cess in every particular, and prove
the beginning of long series OF III
creasingly creditable and profitable
exhibitions of like character in our
neighbor parish.
In the Introductory chapter OF the
catalogue of exhibits and premiums
issued by the management the extern
sive scope of the beneficial influences
to be exerted by the enterprise IS
clearly indicated by the following
paragraph:
ssThis fair is to become pernna-
nent institution and will be recog-
nized as an essential factor IN the pro-
gress and development OF the parish.
1t will be the means of demonstrat-
ing, not only the productivity OF the
country, but it's capacity for dlverslfl-
cation and industrial development.
The wonderful impetus impaired
to scientific agriculture IN Its
broadcast sense has naturally had
reflex effect upon all other phases
of activity and progress, and so may
be seen today all over the parish, not
only better crops, finer horses and
mules, standard breeds of pigs, poul-
try and live stock generally, but
homes of prosperous, contented
farmers. The boys and girls are
setting new pace in their pig,
corn and canning clubs and these
boys and girls mothers are COM
peting against each other in culinary
art and domestic science exhibits

"FALL OF A NATION. "
Mighty Motion Picture Spectacle tt
Be Produced at Baton Rouge.

''The Fall of Nation Thomas
Dixon's thrilling sequel to sThe Birth
of Nation" mighty spectacle OF
war and patriotism with central
love theme of engrossing power will
be shown at the Elks' Theatre IN
Baton Rouge today and tomorrow,
matinee and night.
In writing and staging ''The Fall of
Nation Thomas Dixon has kept
particularly in view the world strug-
gle between democracy and imperial
ism as it affects the United States.
After a prologue exemplifying the
foreign immigrants debt of gratitude
to the Union, the play proper opens
with the sceneaDbf political conflict
| ,Qeceding the great conspiracy against
thy life of the republic. John Vas
sar's national defense bill is defeated
in congress. Virginia Holland, through
admiring his pluck, spurns his prln-
ciples and encourages Charles VALID
ron, the professed friend of peace.
Practically without warning the
storm breaks over New York when
10000 aliens of European military
training rise at Waldron's signal, cap
ture the national guard armories over
night, and train the big guns on New
York's unarmed citizenry. A wild
exodus ensues to Long Island, where
an American army is hastily raised.
But while this is taking place the
powerful fleet Of the Confederation of
Northern Europe has met and de-
feated the Atlantic squadron. The
conveyed imperial army, 100000
strong, effects landing and in a
three-day battle routs the Americans
utterly.
Waldron puts on regal uniform and
| is hailed vieeroy of the Provinces of
North America" The well-populated
part of the country is captured by
| the foreign legions. Vassar is a
| fugitive in the west. Waldron sends
forth Virginia on the mission of en-
rolling her American sisters in the
| 'tWoman's Imperial Legion of Hon
! or"
The final scenes of the play show
| Virginia as of the stuff Of Joan of
Arc. Processing to fulfill the vice
roy's mission, she organizes a gigantic
counterpart to free the enslaved
Union. Allied with John Vassar,
General Hood and the other American
| leaders, she atones for her former
folly by risking life and honor for the
cause of freedom. Here are shown
scenes like the Sicilian Vespers,
where an entire population rises to
exterminate foreign usurpers. Con-
spicuous in the dreadful yet glorious
day are the Daughters of Jael, an
oath-bound band of women patriots.
The effects will be carried out the
same as in "The Birth of Nation y

St. James to Have Good Roads.

The election held Tuesday in the
parish of St. James for the purpose of
ascertaining the sense Of the property
taxpayers relative to the issuance OF
bonds amounting to 100000 for the
construction and maintenance of a
system of good roads, resulted in the
adoption of the proposition by an
overwhelming majority both in num-
Der and amount. The affirmative
votes totalled 324, representing a
property valuation of 1868, O52, while
those in opposition aggregated "a in
number and S97.61 in value of prop
erty represented. Bonds bearing 5
per cent interest and maturing in
twenty years will be issued, and as
soon as they have been disposed OF
the work of hard-surfacing the high
ways throughout the parish will be
started.

"Oh, Caleb, DEAR" you hear them

By virtue Of Judge HoWelfs writ
Neither can we speak nor SIT.
Throughout the camp went tins alarm
And every fighter grabbed ms arms
Another judge We'll now beseecn
And Judge Howell a lesson teach.
But Caleb had race to run,
And for him Guion made 1t no fun,
So to Judge Schwing of lbervllle
He goes to remedy his ills.
Judge Schwing then issued his decree,
Which set ''T Joe" and 'Lisha free,
And by virtue of this judges writ
Joe and 'Lisha could speak and sit.
How Mister Pugh this did surprise!
He could not credit his own eyes,
When all around the table sat
Six Saxon soldiers standing pat.
'"What mean9kh this all of them

"By order of Judge Schwing, it died. y
A flag of truce was then brought
forth
That for awhile they might discourse.
The four old jurors then withdrew,
And Caleb manned the Saxon crew.
The roll was called, six knights said
aye"
For president all six did cry,
"Our leader Little joe will be
To cross us DER this troubled sea-"
So "T Joe' now is president,
And soon We'll hear some argument
Before the great old supreme court,
Whose officer will then report
In solemn words, and let us know
If we are, like doomed Mexico,
To have no president at all.
