SOME EARLY 'TATERS
BY DIR. KERGOS|EN. +.

There appeared in the Daily States
on Thursday of last week a telegram
from Uneedus, La, wherein it was stat
ed that VIM. Houlton, of the firm of
Houlton Bros, had "capped the climax"
aud had reached the "high water mark"
by placing on his local market sweet
potatoes at S1.95 per bushel. This is a
joke for Hancock county, for our es-
teemed townsman, DR.. A. A. Kergosien,
dug and sold potatoes on August 1st,
~eplanting vines and making second
crop by last October. This year DR..
Kergosien dug and put on the market
swe 1t potatoes of the Porto Rico variety
July Goth, some being of too large size
for the market as stated by B. Monte
leone, produce dealer, who refused to
buy them for that reason. 1t will be
painful but nevertheless interesting to
Mr., Houlton to learn that DR.. ,Kergosien
is getting $3.50 for every 60 lbs he sells.
So much for potatoes. How for rice, a
week or two ago he had two acres of
the cereal with the heads of the stalks
bent over under the burden of the yield.
Other crops are doing proportionately
as well and solving the high cost of liv-
ing for the Doctor and his family,

The Echo hopes the different meet
ings will be well attended, that our peo-
pie over the county will receive the
valuable instructions and information
which the speakers and dem onstrators
will nave to offer; that they may be
benefited thereby to the fullest extent.
Both the federal and local govern
ments are laying big money for this
expert service, but if the people will
benefit thereby the cost comparatively
viii prove small.

DAY AND WEDNESDAY
EXCURSION TRAINS.
And All Other Like Trains
Out of New Orleans Like
" to Be Discontinued
AS A WAR MEASURE.
N. O. Times-Picayune Says
Need of Equipment in Nov
ing Troops Is Advanced AS
the Cause-Efect Will Be
Accutely Felt.
rs A WAR MEASURE.

The Sunday and Wednesday excur-
sions of railroads leading out eff New
Orleans may have to be eliminated so
Uncle Sam may have rolling stock for
the moving of his army, says the N. O.
Times Picayune of Thursday morning.
This was the opinion expressed by rail-
road men Wednesday.
Elimination of the excursion trains
will uot be at the behest of the rail-
roads. They will regret to see them
.aken off for these trains have been
real money makers for them. Their re-
moval will be a war measure.
The Louisville cad Nashville will be
she greatest sufferer in this respect if it
IS forced to take off the excursion
trains it is operating from New Orleans
TO gulf coast points on Sundays and
Wednesdays. 1t also operates excur-
sions from Mobile tn these points. 1t
mas been operating these excursion
GrainS out OF New Orleans regularly for
81 years and handles thousands of per-
sons weekly on them. Should they be
Gaken off it will mean the loss OF more
than $1,000 week su this line.
1t is regarded os certain the Louis
vile C Nashville will be forced to take
Jff these trains as all excursion trains
elsewhere on the system already have
oeen removed. In fact, NV Orleans
is one of the few cities in the United
states out OF which Sunday excursions
are being operated.
Nearly every railroad handles excur-
sions out of New Orleans on Sunday
and thousands OF persons have seized
This opportunity to visit points OF inter-,
est in Louisiana and Mississippi.
The railroads are practically helpless
in the removal OF the trains. II they do
not stop them of their own accord the
government is quite certain to CON-
mandeer them.
