section I0uisianas corn crop for the year
Just past Is estimated at 4S 900, 900 bushels.
This is jump from 10000, 900 bushels in 1913,
and shows how rapidly is Louisiana changing
from one-crop state to a diversified farming
section. Here you may grow corn, oats, hay,
the clovers, velvet beans, peas and other
legumes, and with less competition than in
almost any section Of the North. We recon-
mend Sudan grass growing especially, for this
section. Besides the staple crops. you de-
vote few to trucking and have
about your home for additional profit such
products oranges kumquats, figs, grapes
pecans, melons, ground fruit, etc The staple
crop of Louisiana, of course, is cotton and most
crop Of this great mortgage litter"
LIVE STOCK, POULTRY. ETC.
This section of Louisiana is well adapted to
all kinds of live stock raising, cattle, sheep,
hogs, and by the introduction OF fancy stock
for breeding purposes the native stock which
Is cheap, can be turned into money very fast.

The Penalty of the Poor.

From the Dayton News.
The Door are penaiized for being
poor. 1t costs then something to &C.
cupy that undesirable position in life.
They actually have to pay because they
have no money. There does not seem
to be any remedy for it, but il is ::
fact that the unfortunate of the world
have still more misfortunes thrust
upon them.
The fellow who is able to lay in a
years supply of fuel gets it at a GER
tain price The fellow who can buy
only a small amount at the time pays
great deal more than his fortunate
neighbor. The man who could afford
to pay almost any price for his food
secures it in quantities at low rate:
the man who lives from hand to mouth
pays double. for the same grade of
foodstuffs. And so it goes-the poor
paying the penalty of being poor.
We do not propose to state the REM
edy for this condition of affairs, for
the simple reason we do not know the
remedy. We are stating only facts.
But they are such facts as ought to
cause every one to think: they are
such facts as ought to cause the strong
among us to determine to find a REM
edy-such facts as ought to be kept
before the people until some one
among us is developed wise enough
and good enough to solve this awful
problem which is brought home to mill
lions every hour of the day.
