ONLY SIX JURORS ACCEPTED
IN CASE AGAINST CARRIERE

Opelousas, La, Oct 24.-Only
six jurors have been accepted in the
case against Eli (Hiliare) Carriere,
charged with the murder of Sheriff
! Marion L. Swords, of St. Landry
parish, last July, when the first day
of his trial ended tonight, but it was
expected that the selection of the
jury would be completed Wednes-
day. Objections were renewed to-
night by the defense when court con-
vened to proceeding with the trial
because Of alleged failure of the
jury commissioners to comply with the
law, but the objection was over-ruled
and to this the defense filed bill Of
exceptions.
The jurors accepted are:
Hypolite Meche, of Coulee Croche.
Evans Fontenot Of Garland.
Albert Fisher of Waxia, farmer
Will Lavergne, of Bellevue, far
mer.
D. A. Carson, 81, Opelousas.
Armstrong Smith, of Arnaud-
Vile.
The defense used three of its
twelve peremptory challenges, while
many of the talesmen were excused
for cause. Carriere appered to re-
tain his composure throughout the
day
Carriere was brought into court at
600 a. M by Sheriff Fontenot. Cor
oner Littell and Jailer Frank Douca
He appeared as composed and de-
bonair as ever, with his curly hair
hanging a bit lower on his forehead,
and with the inevitable cigars and
pencils sticking out of his pocket
On taking his seat he found furth-
er reinforcement to his array of
councils.
The latest was introduced to the
court as Robert w. Greene, an at
torney from Beaumont, Texas. 1t
is understood Mr.. Greene was re-
tanned largely because of his ability
to speak and understand French, the /
language of a number of the wit /
nesseS.
After the morning hour a poll of
the petit jurors was taken. Eleven I
had been excused by Judge PAW for |
the legal reasons of being over sixty |
years Of age, sickness or inability to
understand the English
language. The courtroom was then
only half filled, but rapidly filling
with the curious but quiet crowd,
mostly men.

AGRICULTURE A PROFESSION

That the farms of the country
will eventually pass to the owner
ship of those who can use them best
is the opinion expressed the other
day by we'll known rural life in
vestigator. This means that the men
who know best how to manage a
farm will eventually be the men
who own one, and that farming must
become better as all farmers learn to
use something other than their
hands.
Two generations hence agricul-
ture in the United States must be a
profession. The man who owns and
operates farm will be the man
trained in a professional school, just
as a doctor, lawyer. teacher
and lately newspaper man-is
trained in a professional school.
There will be no law passed requir-
ing him to pass professional ex-
animation before he is given a lie
ense to practice the profession of
agriculture but there will be an econ
omc law that will force him to give
over to others who can manage a
mans sized Job better than he can,
if he cannot do it well.-Minnesota

STORE COWPEAS IN
POD TO PROTECT
AGAINST WEEVIL

Under ordinary conditions, the
best way to store cowpeas IS III the
pod. They should be thoroughly dried
and if there is not considerable
of weevils in them already, it will
hardly be necessary to treat them
for weevi1 protection. If the weevil
are present in considerable numbers
it will be we'll to fumigate them with
carbon bisulphite for t~enty-four
hours, using pound of carbon
bisulphide to one thousand feet of
store room The store room, Of
course, must have tight walls, or
have them made tight by FASTING
paper over the cracks. A very com
mon way is to get barrels and fill
them with peas, shaking them down
thoroughly, but not tramping them
enought to break the pods. The pods
serve as a protection for the peas.

TICK ERADICATION.
BY Or. Mark Francis OF the A. and NJ
College Of Texas.

Almost every one who lives In the
Southern States knows that cattle
bear. almost the entire year, ticks at.
tached to them. This is so familiar
that little or no attention is given them
by the average man. When. however,
Il becomes known that these ticks con
vey the disease called Texas fever
from one COW to another. and that the
animal losses from this disease
amount to 100000 or more. II be
canes apparent that the tick nuisance
is a matter OF great economic import
ance.
The losses come about In number
OF ways. We have many deaths among
native cattle In the summer months
when the ticks become numerous, or
prolonged attacks OF fever, which re
duce the animals In flesh and spirit
very much and in large measure pre-
vent normal development We have
very heavy losses among Northern cat
tie that have been purchased at great
expense to be used as breeding stock
II seems probable that so to so pei
cent OF these die during the first sum
mer.
In addition to these. the tick I'm
poses great economic hardship b!
causing restrictions to trade.
Even the hides OF tick infested ami
mails are so damaged that they arr
graded as No. 4. instead OF No. or
The leather industries are complain
ing bitterly about this. 1t requires
but a moments reflection to see IN,
importance of this when the common
grades OF leather used In our harnes
are now costing 72c per pound, an
shoe soles free from grub holes an,
brands are costing about Sl.25 pc
pound.
No one knows what these losse
amount to In the aggregate, but thos
who have given this matter careful
study estimate them from so to 10 mi
lion dollars annually.
This is equivalent to 100000 bale
OF cotton that the farmer produces I
feed the tick. Why permit this grea
loss to continue year after year?
surely will continue unless the tick
destroyed.
The tick can be destroyed. Our b.
reau OF animal industry has alread
cleaned up about $50. 600 square mile
OF infested territory. which shows tbs
II can be done. There yet remain

my Associated Press. ]

Paris, Jan. 5.-The Matin affirms.
Notwithstanding denials. that the Ger.
man emperor is suffering from cancer
OF the throat and is no longer able to
speak.
'ln February. 1911" according TO the
Matin. the doctors were considering
whether II was necessary to remove
the entire larnyx to stay the progress
OF the disease They raised the ques.
ton as to whether the emperor would
be able to spak II such an opration
were performed. The leading special.
lists OF every capital OF Europe were
consulted. u was learned that an
eminent surgeon Of Paris had with.an
artificial larnyx and breathing tube
opening into the trachea restored the
power of speech to cancerous patients
who had undergone total ablatlon OF
the affected organs.
This doctor. whose name the Matin
withholds for reasons of professional
etiquette. was asked to 40 to Berlin
by the German ambassador. lie was
offered 100000 francs and all his ex.
penses and was requested to bring
with him patient who had been fitted
with the apparatus so that the empe-
lror himself might see II he were able
to speak.
Meanwhile. as a result OF minor
Operation. the emperor's condition Inn
proved. as is often the case In this dis.
ease. the progress OF which Is impla.
cable but slow. II Is another operation
OF this kind which has Just been per.
formed. But II Is only palliative. The

his mind to complete removal OF the
larnyx or be stifled.

about 10000 square miles Of Infected
territory which can be and win be
cleaned OF the tick. II costs about soc
a COW to destroy the tick. and this
increases her value 50 to IS. The en-
couraging feature Of this work Is that
Il will have to be done but once. and
Il remains clean territory always;
even II Il had to be repeated every
year. Il would pay enormously to an.
tagonize the tick. Why wait longer?
The tick will not quit the field until
forced to do so. and Texas viii be
here for many years.
All that Is necessary Is for the stock.
men to get together on this subject
and support the live stock sanitary
commission and the bureau OF animal
industry In this matter. II will i'm.
pose some temporary hardship on a
few individuals for three or four
months. but the results will abundant
ly justify the effort.
