These nations and Others during
the past two years spent millions OF
dollars in literary propaganda de-
signed to win public opinion and this
fact alone attests their desire for
friendly relations with us.
I'VE all realize how fortunate we
are in not being involved in the great
European conflict, but does the fact
that we are not so involved corrob-
crate the claim that Wilson kept us
out of war;
ut is absurd to argue, and thus the
Democratic party is robbed OF its
greatest campaign asset

he assisted in the establishment OF

this policy brought us?

is made and always has been made? It
is in the buying OF real estate at the
right price and holding it. Prices are
always advancing and always have.
Land is, perhaps, the safest investment
one can make. 1t is not twenty years
since land in our parish sold for so and
81 per acre. There is none of this now.
Prices have steadily advanced until now
the same land looks cheap at S. and $40
per acre. Plenty of land sells for twice
these figures, and these prices will look
cheap to all of us few years later.
In some of the Northern States where
land sold for these prices twenty years
ago, it sells at $3.50 and $500 per acre
now.
Invest while you can get the land on
reasonable terms. An investment of
this kind will show good judgment. 1t
will be safe and will pay more than
interest. Land will not burn up or blow
away; cannot be stolen nor destroyed.
The man who buys land at the right
time always makes money. The great
est fortunes of the world were made out
of real estate. It was not railroads that
made Vanderbilt rich. 1t was his real
estate.
Think this over. Look around and
secure piece of land, even if you have
to buy on credit. Buy it if you can.

Test Well Progress.

The prospect oil we'll being put down
one-and-a-quarter miles west of Benton
had reached a depth of about 400 feet
this morning. The drillers have lately
penetrated stratum of hard rock and
are now again making easy going.
So far there have been no accidents at
the we'll and no delays from any cause.
The stratum of hard rock was the only
thing that has slowed-up the steady
penetration of the earth's crust. If there
have been so far any indications of oil
the drillers have not given them pub
licity. North of this immediate field,
the depth at which oil has been found
has been around 1900 feet. It would
seem, then, that there might soon be
news, good or otherwise, of the oil pros
poets in this field.

Mosquito Campaign on in State.

The State Board of Health has begun
its annual campaign against the mos
quito at New Orleans. An article in the
Times-Picayune says several foci of
fever-bearing mosquitoes have been
found by DR.. Bowling in the vicinity OF
the city. The people and the Board of
Health are preparing to ego after"
them. 1t is supposed that the people of
New Orleans may know what they are
after. What concerns us in Benton and
Bossier Parish is that most of our all
ments OF summer time have their origin
in the bite of the mosquito.
A few barrels of oil we'll placed in
damp places and on the surfaces of lakes
and stagnant ponds will do for our mos
quitoes, be they the fosi of fever
mosquitoes or the common old malarial
murderers.
When there is curtain of coal oil on
the surface of pond, be the covering
ever so thin, no wiggletail in that pond
will ever become mosquito; for, when
young Mr.. Wiggletail comes to the surf
ace to change from a submarine to an
aeroplane, he runs his sensitive probosis
into the deadly oil, and he never gradu-
ates as small flying devil.
Prepare to cleanup!

TatiIIaS.

The tatilla is the right ancestor of the
"hoecake," battercake, hotcake, ash
cake and cornbread-and all these are
degenerate descendants. The tatilla sur
wives in Old Mexico, but has for an
unknown reason vanished from the
menue of the noble red men dwelling
north of the Gadsden Purchase.
Tatillas are made from corn after the
following fashion: Treat the corn with
lie as in making lie hominy. Wash the
grains thoroughly to get rid of the lie.
The dampened grains are then crushed
and worked into stiff dough. Make
cakes of the dough, as thin as possible,
about as large as "battercakes;" bake on
top hot stove without the use of grease.
The cakes may also be cooked on Goals,
in skillet, or on a hot rock. The i'm
portant matter is to get them cooked
without spelling the flavor of the corn
with grease. Tatillas are good with any
and all meats, vegetables, milk, etc., and
are the best as we'll as the original corn
bread,

SOrfkey.

When the ancestors of the present
white inhabitants of Bossier Parish
landed in America, and after they had
eaten the food they fetched from Europe,
they were driven by hunger to taste of
the foods upon which the Indians lived.
Corn was the basis of nearly all these
foods save, of course, the meat diet; and
the principal dish which became COM
mon among the settlers and has come
down to US, was evolved from that which
the Cherokee Indians and their kindred
tribes called "conahana," and which we
now call lie hominy.
But the original Indian conahana was
better and purer food than that which
the white people evolved from it. It is
still used in its purer form by the Greek,
Cherokee and Choctaw Indians of Okla
homa under the names of sorfkey, coma
hama and tomfuller. The Creek Indian
woman still makes it after the primitive
way of her mothers, thus:
The corn is treated with lie, as in
making lie hominy. Then the whole
grains are washed and boiled in great
deal of clear water, without salt or other
seasoning, for several hours until the
grains are tender. Water is constantly
added and the proportion of water to
corn is never allowed to fall below two
thirds in bulk. When thoroughly cooked
the corn and water-sorfkey-is poured
into stone jar or wooden vessel. That
is all. 1t is good warm, it is good cold;
but it is never truly sorfkey until slightly
fermented. Serve in large bowl and
eat with a big spoon, for, no matter how
simple the making of sorfkey may sound,
it is most delicious, sound and nourish-
ing food.
At the first tasting, salt naturally sug-
| gests itself to the taste of the white man,
but after the second or third meal the
desire for salt passes away and sorfkey
becomes an institution. The white race
in America missed much by adding
grease and salt to this greatest of all In
dian foods, and thus making the almost
undigestable lie hominy. The water,
also, was drained off by the white peo-
pie, and thus they lost the best of the
food value of the corn.
If you will make sorfkey three times
you will then never cease to have this
most delicious and wholesome food in
your home.

threw him to the floor and when he called
for aid his wife rushed in, armed with a
butcher knife, and attacked the dog,
stabbing the maddened brute eight
times before killing him. Mr.. Bixler
left the same evening for Austin to take
the Pasteur treatment. If Mrs. Bixler
had not fearlessly dispatched the dog
the lives of others would have been en-
dangered.
