- arm property seems 10 ne
coming into it's own of late if one
would Judge by the changes in
real estate for the past two
months. Last week the Patout
Bros, who contemplate going into
the cattle raising business ON cx-
tcnsive plans purchased some 500
arpeuts Of land from DR.. A. G..
Emmer which is situated on the
border Of Spanish Lake. a few
days thereafter they also took
over some sixty acres which adj
Joins this track from Mr.. Lazard
King. This will give them quite
an extensive range for their stock
and owing to it's proximity to the
waters Of the Lake it is especially
adapted for the uses which these
Young gentlemen will subject it..
w. also hear of several other land
negotiations which might be
terminated within few days.
With good crops this season there
is no reason why our lands should
not even surpass their former
value and those who contemplate
buying farm property if they wish
TO obtain lands at the reasonable
figures should not tarry longer
than what is actually necessary.
Now that the showers we
have been having have become
more or less general throughout
the Parish, our people are enter
tanning high hopes Of bounteous
crops this season. In some sec
tions Of iberia the planters have
had so little rain that hundreds
Of acres Of corn showed in
3ications Of making nothing more
than nubbins. From what we
learned Yesterday, sections Of the
Parish that did not have any rain
to sneak Of for nigh onto three
months have been blessed with a
shower. just in the nick of time
to do thousands Of dollars worth
of GOOD. In New iberia we have
had an abundance of rain, in fact
we could well spare it to our
neichbors and at last it begins to
look like Jupiter Pluvius has come
10 the rescue of all. The cane
and rice crops never looked more
promising than it does this season
and with such bright prospects
for good prices we can see no rea-
son for those engaged in agricul-
tnral pursuits to feel otherwise
than pleased over the situation in
general.

The second installment of The Secret of the Submarine, which was shown at the Plaza theater yesterday. proved as big q drawing card as did the first installment shown the week before. In fact there are several weird thrills in this one that were not in the former chapter. Which is not to be wondered St considering the pretentious nature of the film. The story last week left the hero and heroine in the submarine in sink ing condition. This week they are rescued from the terrible danger. but before long the old inventor is killed and his secret dies with him. Inn agine the scramble to find out what it all is. This, of course, will be told in subsequent chapters. In ad- dition to this great feature today there will be three e-reel Mutual feature from the Thanhouset studios, Ambition featuring Gladys Hulette and Morris Foster.

JOHNSON IN
 q. PAUL PLAN
Interesting Topic to be Yak en Up at Meeting on City Hall Plaza at 8 O'clock Tonight to Talk Over Finance System

meeting will be held at the city hall plaza at eight o'clock tonight at which F. Johnson will present the "St. Paul plan" which was instituted at St. Paul, Minn., a few years ago, pro- viding for popular subscription to the city's bonded indebtedness. That is, the people are given an opportunity to buy the securities of the city in convenient denominations lover the counter" MT. Johnson has been in- teresteds in this plan and has been in correspondence with the city authori- tleS of St. Paul for the last three years with reference to the operation of it, which they say has been quite satisfactory.
 few weeks ago MT. Johnson ad. dressed the ''X" club on the St Paul plan and aroused a great deal of in terest among the members and visitors. among whom were members of the city commission. Since then he has been in receipt of later and more com plete information regarding the work ings of the plan and that will be pre- sented at the meeting tonight.
 St. Paul has a commission form of government and in the last four years has made further progress in the coal : ization of municipal affairs than any other city in the country.
