Which he needs at certain seasons
OF the year. Then take into con-
slderation the wear and tear to

bad roads. The cost during the
year is very often more than the

the land owner votes against an
Improvement tax of this nature
he does>himself an injustice more
than to any one else for the rea-
son that good roads are absolute

it is his holdings that is enhanced

entertained the people of this Sec

night. The afternoon attraction
was about as well attended as the
night performance and we do not
believe there ever were more peo-
Pile cOngregated under their
enormous tents than at these two
performances. From early in the
morning visitors from some thirty
and forty miles distant came TO
our City congregating upon the
Main street to witness the pa
rade. Owing to the late hour in
which the last section Of their
three trains reached here which
was about eleven O'Clock, it was
announced the parade would not
take place. This was a great dis
appointment to many of the chill
dren and grown folks who had
tired themselves out to witness
the anticipated pageant. The att
traction. in many respects, was
more entertaining than their re-
production here two years ago.
The show had exhibited at Lake

Road tax election to be held on

when the property holders out

they see fit, the efforts of the Po-
lice Jury to build model gravel
roads throughout the Sixth Ward
Of the Parish. 1t will be noted by
the notice of election appearing
in another column the bond issue
will represent an Indebtedness
of only 100000, the proceeds
of which will be applied solely for
the maintenance and construction
of roads leading in the direction
Of New Iberia. The tax will be
SO small that we cannot conceive
how any one can consistly oppose
the proposition as submitted by
our Police Jury when they take
into consideration the advantages
derived from model gravel road
enabling them to have roads at
all times Of the season for the
hauling of their products to mar
ket. Good roads are essential to
every farmer and land holder in
the Parish who has to find mar
ket Of some kind for his products
and who also has to get to town
to transact business at the county
seat. Aside from that every |
acre of farm land, owing to the |
Ease with which it can be reached |
IS at once worth so per cent more
to the owner if it is ever put upon

Little Illness at Camp Cody.

Deming, N. NJ, Nov. 23.-What mil
itary authorities at Camp Cody here
declare is a persistent effort to har.
ass the authorities by dissemination
of reports that health conditions
among national guardsmen of the
Thirty-fourth division stationed al
Camp Cody were bad was answered
by Lieut.. Col. J. NJ. Coffin in the
statement setting forth that the &C.
tual health conditions here are cpl.
demic.
So widespread have been the re.
ports of sickness that in several in
stances relatives of soldiers here
came from far distant states to in.
vestigate.
Col. Coffin said:
eve are below the average sick
rate of any division in the United
States. The quarantine for measles
Is extensive on account of the sys-
TEN adopted to combat the disease.
When a soldier takes measles his
tent mates are sent to the contact
camp, where they are held for four
days and the company is quarantined.
'Nine cases of measles developed
in an organization is sufficient to
cause the entire regiment to be quar-
antined. There is no cause for alarm
and the epidemic is diminishing. The
number of cases today was reduced
from 303 to 223. The type is mild
form known as German measles.
There have been no deaths from that
cause and no complications through
pneumonia or local infections. The
number of deaths since this camp
was established is negligible and not
nearly as high as in any civil COM
munity."

IOWA FACES WORST
SEED CORN CRISIS
With Only Is Per Cent Before Forst,
Remedies Must be Taken to Find
More.

Iowa is facing today the greatest
seed corn crisis in her history. This
is the verdict of the corn specialists
of Iowa State college, after making an
extensive survey OF conditions in all
parts of the state.
Conditions, are much worse than in
1915. Not over $3.50 of the 100000
bushels of seed required to plant the
1918 crop was saved before the Oc'
tober frost. Much of this was not
dry when gathered or was already in.
jured by frost, SO that less than 1870
of the required seed is now assured
The bulk Of the seed for next year
must vet come from the fields and

= '.As soon assall good corn, either In
the field for In cribs in a locality has
been located, it should be sorted and
stored in dry, well ventilated places
or sorted and cribbed by itself in sepa-
rate cribs. It must be borne in mind
that that corn must all be ear testet
and that only part of it will prove
to be suitable for planting. The high
price that will be asked for seed will
more than pay for the worry of find
ing the good seed.
