The chief characteristics of the
celebration have always BEEN do

and the invited friends gather on
the first evening lin orthodox
homes also on the second EVENING"
to recount in song and story and
amid appropriate symbolism tho
deliverance of Israel's hosts from
bondage in Egypt, and to partake
of repast which is called the sc.
der. The main symbols of this
seder service are the roasted lamb
bone, commemorative of the lamb
that was slaughtered as a sacrifice
of the Covenant; the matzah, or
unleavened bread, to be eaten dur.
ing the whole week, recalling not
only the hasty departure of the
Israelites from Egypt, but also
their absolute reliance upon God

The other symbols of the table

the single cup of wine meant for

present In spirit, brought ever
anew the message Of undying hope
Of the Messlanic reign of universal

PLANT Velvet BEANS
With CORN CROP

"Plant velvet beans in you

sion, l.. s. U. "Turn the beans

piece of land for your club wort
next year and watch the improve
ment IN your crops.
"There are several good varie
ties Of velvet beans, but we sug
gest that you plant the Early
Speckled goo day. variety. They
will make ample growth on the
land you have selected and will
produce a crop Of seed. Plant
from one third to one half busheI
of seed per acre. This will give
you q hill of velvet beans every 1(
or II inches. PIaut them on the
row between the hills Of corn al
the first working Of the corn uD
less the corn is not planted until
after the middle Of April. Cover
the seed about one inch or one and
one half inches deep. 1t is best
to inocnlate the seed, though on
good land or where stable manure
has been used as a fertilizer inocu
lation may be omitted. The vines
do not grow fast until midsummer,
and they will not be in the way
when the corn is being cultivated.
Later in the season they will wrap
up everything and will interfere
somewhat with gathering the crop
and the selection Of seed. This
disadvantage, however, is very
small when compared with the fer.
tilizing value Of the crop.
"The mature seed of the velvet
beans should be gathered after
frost and the vines turned under
deep. If you will plant this piece
Of land in corn next year you will
get much better crop and will
have conducted q demonstration
that should be worth q great deal
to every man in the community
who sees 1t.

April Moods

APRIL--maid of many moods
Charming in her sunny places,
Lovely Ia her solitudes.
In the hedges note her traces:
Green with gray she interlaces,
Till each brownie twig Is seen
In pointed cap of green.
Maid by many lovers wooed:
Lovers won by wistful chances.
See escaping from their snood-
Golden locks a stream-she dances
'Mong the Willows slender lances
Till the boughs seem to ensnare
Tangled mists of shining hair!
April, sweetest maid OF mood!
Long in coming; soon your going.
Dark or bright vicissitutes,
Yet each day fresh marveis showing
Corals on the naples glowing!
And-along the path she goes
We may, some day, find rose!

HOW AUTOMOBILES AND
LANDS WILL Be
ASSESSED.

The Board of State Affairs has
adopted a uniform basis for the
assessment Of automobiles, which
it is proposed to have the assess
ors of all the parishes adopt. The
rule follows:
"FOr new machines, for first
years. assessment there shall be a
deduction made on the cost price
of Is per cent; for the second
years assessment, a deduction OF
50 per cent off the cost price, and
for the third years assessment, a
deduction of so per cent off the
original cost price. For the fourth
years assessment and all subse
quent years, the full cash value of
the automobile shall be deteImin
ed by having made affidavit to Its
value the same as any other prop
erty."
The board has also adopted a
uniform classification for the as.
sessment Of agricultural lands,
which assessors will be required
to follow. The classification Is
the same, with some slight modifi.
cations, which has been evolved
by the assessors and which was
tacitly approved by the State
Board of Equalization, under the
old system. Heretofore, however,
it was purely optional with the as.
SCISSORS whether they used it. For
the sake of uniformity, they will
be required by the Board of State
Affairs to adopt it. The Classifi-
cation Follows:
"Sugar Lands-Class A, Allu
vial land having natural drain
age; Glass B, alluvlal lands hav-
ing artificial drainage by means of
pumps, canals, etc., or accessible
to only one sugar refinery, where
the owner of the land does not own
a sugar refinery.
"COtton Lands-Class A, allu
vial lands or sandy loan, such as
Red river and Mississippi bottoms,
etc Glass B, high class hill land
In cultivation; Glass C, recently
opened hill lands, denuded pine
flats and low grade land requiring
much fertilization, etc.
"Rice Lands Glass A, alInvial
lands receiving water direct from
the Mississippi and other large
rivers; Glass b, prairie land re-
quirlng irrigation by artificial
means, such as pumping plants,
canals, etc.
"Truck Lands-Class A, high

ton and marketing facilities;
Glass b, all other lands used for
this purpose.
"Corn Lands-COrn lands shall
be classified the same as cane, cot
