Shreveport.-

shreveport
Reports from planters in this and
adjoining parishes show that there is
an increase of 10 per cent in cotton
acreage over the area planted last
season. The increase is not confined
10 any particular locality nor evenly
distributed between hill and river
lands, but is uniform in both cases.
planters in general apparently having
extended their acreage in anticipation
or increased demand for staple next
fall,
The same can not be said of the
stand. In the same localities it will
be good in one field and mediocre OF
worse in the one adjoining and
throughout the section is skippy or
ragged. This condition coupled with
late season and the activities Of the
some extent, although not sufficient to
boil weevil will reduce the yield TO
balance the increased acreage by any
manner of means.
The season Is ten DAYS or two
weeks late. but on June 10, when
planters and hands made the first fore
cast Of the crop the plants We're IN
almost full bloom and some planters
reported theirs reaching that stage
several days before. The first blooms
were reported from scattered local..
ties early in the month.
All crops are in healthy condition
and while grass and weeds were prey.
alent early in the month most planters
have cleaned them out and the gen.
eral condition of the fields is very
clean.
The supply Of labor is adequate to
meet all demands and the hands are
working well and no anxiety is being
felt on that score, Activities Of ne.
gro leaders working In conjunction
with employers have raised the stand
ard Of living among renters and field
hands and the negroes appear to be
better satisfied with their surround
ings and conditions of labor. Most
big planter. have provided better
housing facilities and encouraged their
negroes to make better provisions for
themselves by raising their own meat,
food and forage crops on small tracts
furnished them for the purpose.
Compared with last year the boil
weevils are more numerous and are
scattered over a wider extent, few 10,

of her shoe-same make, same

the entire year" he explained
And am, therefore, in position to
serve you to much better advantage
than any one at a distance. :"
She promptly informed him that
he would get all of her future
shoe patronage. In fact she
would call friends attention 10
the fact that this line was carried
locally and insisted on her calling
and inspecting his stock.
Her only reason for not having
patronized him in the past was she
did not know that she could OBJ
tain the particular shoe she want
ed from his store.
After she had departed he ex-
planned that the reason he had not
advertised the shoe in his local
paper was that he presumed every
body in the community would,
sooner or later, call and look over
his stock.
Then too, he had been in the
shoe business for a long time and
naturally figured that the trade
was familiar with his merchandise.
Same old story: An utter lack of
appreciation of the value of adver-
Using -acquainting possible pur-
chasers with what he had to offer
them.
The public would, of course,
eventually become familiar with
his lines in some way or other. He
could, however, obtain desired re-
suits in this direction much more
economically and expeditiously by
utilizing the various forms of adj
vertising media at his command,
particularly his local newspaper.

Much Of the trade lost by small
town merchants to foreign COM
petition is the direct result of a
lack of proper advertising.
A most convincing example in
substantlation of this statement
came under my observation about
thaee years ago during a visit to
one of our small towns.
While interviewing one of the
merchants in the interest of stan
dard merchandise and better sell
ling methods, a woman called to
get a button replaced on a shoe
which service, by the way, was
gladly performed without charge.
After examining it this merchant
asked where it had been bought.
In blank City," replied the lady.
l buy all my shoes there.

Celebrated Shift Play Is

ihe celebrated shift play is year

football circles and promises to be
In great prominence this year, mas.

this early in the season. This form

many coaches, especially when their
players have been unable to gain by
the old method Of straight line
smashes.
Many football generals have al
ready given up the old method of play
and are depending entirely on the
open attack to make gains and in
many instances have won games by
such methods. OF course, the for.
ward pass is still in vogue and prob
ably will be the most important fea.
ture in the great gridiron game for
years to come.
Shift plays have been employed
among the "Big Three" Minnesota,
Chicago and Wisconsin, with more de-
cided effect this year than ever be-
fore, and followers of the game are
awaiting with interest the time when
the real title contenders will get to.

style of play will crowd out the for

shift attack in Conference circles.
Season after season the MinnesOtans
have been springing fake plays that
have deceived their opponents and in
many games have kept them guessing
every minute Of play. Practically all
of their fakes developed from shifts
that throw the opposing eleven off
their guard. 1t is true enough that
other teams have their shift plays,
but they are less elaborate and not as
extensively employed as those used
by the Gophers.
One thing that makes Minnesota
such promising candidate for titu.
lar honors is the dangerous attack
they have developed under the guild
ance of Williams. His shift plays in
the past have disconnected the de-
tense of more: than one strong eleven
and, as he now has a squad of stars
gathered together, there is no reason
to doubt but that his fakes will be
equally as effective this year.
