ANNIE BYRON PIcOU

Mrs. Annie Byron Picou, wife of
Hefbert Picou, and one Of the oldest
residents of Berwick, La, died last
night, May 2, 1917, shortly after
1880 o'clock, from cancer of the
stomach. She had been ill five
months.
Mrs. Picou was AZ years old and
had reared a large family. She,
first, was married to Lorenzo By
rom, a well-known steamboat man,
when she was fourteen years old,
and from whose union, six daughters
and two sons were born, all surviv-
ing, and residents of Berwick. Her
first husband preceded her to the
eternal world about eleven years
ago.
She married for the second time
about four years ago, Mr.. Herbert
Picou, no children being born from
her late marriage.
Besides her children, she leaves
to mourn her loss, her mother and
two brothers. One Of her daughters
is married to Mr.. Geo. Lagarde. The
funeral services will take place this
afternoon from her residence at 2
O'Clock with interment in Willow
Grove Cemetery in Berwick.

THE FARMERS RESPONSIBILITY

Upon the farmer rests in large
measure the final responsibility Of
winning the war in which we are now
involved. The Importance to the Ma
ton of an adequate food supply,
especially for the present year, can
not be overemphasized. The worlds
food reserve is very low. Not only
our own consumers, but much of
the world at large, must rely more
completely than ever before upon
the American farmer. Therefore,
the man who tills the soil and sup
ports the soldier in the field and
the family at home in rendering as
noble and patriotic a service as is
the man who bears the brunt of the
battle.
The American farmer has long
shown his ability to produce more
food per man and at lower cost per
unit than any other farmer in the
world, but he has never had to do
his best. He needs to do his best
now. This is not the time in which
to experiment with new and untried
crops and processes. t. is principal
efforts to the production of such
crops and the employment of such
methods as are well established in
his community and as are likely to
yield the maximum return in food
and clothing material.
Within the next 60 days the final
measure of crop acreage and food
production for this year will have
been established. We urge the i'm
portance of the immediate mobiliza-
tion of all available service of the
Federal and State Depart
mems of Agriculture and the COL
leges of agriculture in cooperation
with the press, the banks, the COM
mercial organizations, the religious
and social societies, that all may
heartily join with the farmer in per-
forming the patriotic duty of pro-
viding and conserving food.
Because of the world shortage Of
food, it is scarcely possible that the
production of staple crops by the
farmers of the United States can be
too great this year. There is every
reason to believe that generous
price will be paid for the harvest Of
their fields.

OFFICIALS DO NOT
REGARD THE SITUATION IN
ANY SENSE FATAL.

Washington, May 3.-While En-
tente Missions are alarmed at the
condition created by submarines
American officials do not regard the
situation in any sense fatal. Ameri-
can officials believe that this period
means one of greatest self-denial,
restrictions, but one that will not
lead to starvation or to the loss of
the war. United States are counting
on ships, men and money. Possibly
American inventive genius will out
weigh submarines. Diplomats says
Allies situation nothing to compare
with difficulties in Germany.

CHARGED
WITH THEFT

Have you been shy on clothes the
past few weeks? If you have lost a
few fine dresses you might consult
Chief of Police Bulge. He effected
an arrest Wednesday that may
break up some of the steals that
have been going on about the city.
Leila May White a negress six
teen years of age fingers in the city
prison, having confessed to the po-
lice, that she and her friend Miss
Johnson, who is now seeking anoth-
er abode, have been plying their
trade about town for some time.
Complaints have been made to the
officers by residents of the city, that
during the late evenings, their yards
were being entered, and their clothes
lines tmpered with, fine clothes were
the hobby of the negro girls, and
their operations were so successful,
that they were not caugl.t in the act.
Through investigation, Chief Bulge
discovered that the negress had been
seen exhibiting some of her "Sun
day-go-to-meeting" clothes and il
was this information shat led him t
her home, where she readily brought
fourth her accumulation of fine
garments. She implicated. the John
son woman now said to be residing
in the vicinity of Riverside planta-
ton.
Among the complaints were
Messrs. VIM. Gotten Jr., c.. r.
Browneli. Captain Forgey and Gil
lem.

Mr.. Harry P. Williams Spares Neith-
er Care Nor Expense to Demon.
strate That Chicken Farming Is
Feasible.

additional industry for South Louis
lana, Mr.. Harry P. Williams of Pat
terson has established one of the
largest chicken farms in this state,
if not the entire South.
Located about two miles above his
town, Mr.. Williams owns what is
known as the "Red Top Farm" All
buildings, from the tiniest chicken
house up to the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. Hebert, the obliging keepers of
the farm, are painted red; hence the
"Red Top Farm" Mr.. Williams has
done more than paint things red
around his farm. He has already
purchased, and now has on the
ground, several thousand Of the fine
breed of chickens as may be seen
anywhere. He is not confining his
efforts to any particular breed, but
is practicing diversification in
chicken raising, and intends demon
strating the feasibility of successful
diversified poultry farming in this
State. His wori. is that of a pioneer,
and >le results will be watched by
the public with more than usual in
terest.
The "Red Top Farm" is located
on the Felterman place, about two
miles above Patterson, where Mr..
Williams has expended several
thousand dollars in improvements,
which are of most substantial ma
ture. One of the first acquisitions in
the poultry business is an incubator,
and Mr.. Williams has several now in
operation, being installed for the
purpose. The incubator room is a
model building, with cement floor
and splendid ventilation, so ar
ranged as to give proper results.
A small general farm is brought
into use in connection with the poul-
try enterprise, and corn with other
crops for chickens will be raised.
Feed grinders are operated by pow
er, while the entire place is lighted
by electricity from the home plant.
There are more than a score of
comfortable little homes for the
baby chicks, with larger houses for
the older males and females, each
breed occupying a different depart
ment, with birds of various ages
roaming first in one department and
then in another.
The location of the farm, where
several large oaks furnish shade and
protection for the younger fowl, is
ideal for this business, and all indi-
cation point to eventual success in
the enterprise. The houses, large and
small, are kept Immediately clean.
and everything presents most re-
treshing appearance.
The Review representative was
able to spend only short time at
"Rep Top Farm" but promised the
treat of a return trip, when further
improvements, now under way, will
likely be completed.
Ihe enterprise and energy Of Mr..
Williams furnish sufficient proof
that "Red Top Farm" will be an at
tra.- on. not only tc'onging to Fat
terssn but 20 tie -"eche county as
well.
