The parish of Terrebonne is now
supplying more oyster to the market
than the entire state did some years
ago, and the crop is steadily in
creasing. Terrebonne parish in 1914
1915 were 9l,441 barrels. There had
been reserved in the parish by the
law $4,000 acres of natural oyster
bottoms, which were opened to the
exploitation of the public.

The worthy article giving in de
tails the true condition of the Oy
ster industry of the south, which ap
peared in Sundays Times icayune
is unquestionably the most complete
and perfect historical data of thai
great industry, ever before given out
for publication. According to the
arthur, who no doubt is thoroughly
posted in the Oyster Conservation
laws of this country, we learn that
the trouble with the oystermen of
this parish in connection with the
lands leased for oyster culture, that
the last trouble with the fishermen
was to have been expected, for it in
evitably follows efforts at conserva-
ton everywhere in the world In
the decade of 1870 and 1880, the
first serious attempt at the preser-
walton of oyster life on a large scale
was tried in the Chesapeake bay
country, and the states of Maryland
and Virginia maintained fleets of
armed ships to enforce the laws they
had enacted. There was a serious
trouble and some shooting, but the
determined attitude of the states
soon convinced the poachers that the
laws were to be enforced by the let
ter, and in comparatively short
time the situation was accepted and
there has been no further trouble,
at least none of sufficient conse-
quence to- be carried to the news of
the day.
In 1915 the first arrests were
made for this class of poaching, and
cases were taken to the District
Court of Terrebonne Parish, where
conviction was had in some of the
cases.
There is no doubt Of the determi-
nation of the commission to enforce
the law to the letter. AS matter of
fact it can do no other. Either it
must abandon in it's entirety the
of the sea food of the
state, or it must take a firm decided>
stand to maintain the property

John H. Etter Dead.

Relatives in this city Saturday
received a telegram announcing
the death of John II. Etter, which
took place that morning at the
home of his son, Claud Etter. at

especially in the Sunday

counties who will be deeply
grieved to learn of the death of
their old teacher and friend.
