progressive buyers from the southsrn
states and tho various Latin-Ameri'
can republics.
Auction sales will be held during
the course Of the convention, affordins
these buyers an excellent opportunity

tion stock. The sales will open Thurs
day, Nov. Is, With an auction Of
horses, Hereford and Holstein cattle

Is the Common Cur Dog
Worthy of His Keep.

Most every lover of animals
loves a good dog. However,
there are dogs and dogs, and the
greatest drawback to successful
sheep husbandry in Louisiana,
by preventing the majority of
our farmers from raising sheep
and wool, is the useless dog
The important question at this
time is, therefore, can we afford
to permit the worthless dog to
stand in the way of our increas-
ing the mutton and wool supply,
which is, and will continue to be,
so urgently needed both at home
and abroad?
Further, a lot OF useless dogs.
around country places especially,
are not only liable to become
habituated to the killing Of sheep,
but they have to be fed, and
much of the food they consume
ls in the nature Of human diet
which might be used for thai
purpose. La fact il has been es.
tiulsted that the degs Of tbi,
couDtry consumes quantity oI
fuod of this character that woult
be sufficient to feed very large
army of men.
Is it right or patriotic at thi
particular time, to continue t.
feed hundreds, perhaps thous
ands, of worthless dogs on foos
that is suitable for human con.
SUMPTION; and that not only deS
troy, but prevent the raising 0
one of our most valuable foo,
animals, irrespective of the woo
that the sheep and lambs woul
be capable of furnishing?
The subject is one of too ser
Gus nature at this time of tn
nations needs to permit sent
ment in favor of the WORTHLESS
Q ir dog to outweigh the urger
necessity for an immediate ir
crease in the peoples food an
wool supply, and more particu
larly when 80 many thousands
non-colnbatants IN allied conn
tries afe starving to death for th
want b1lh of food and clothing

ABOUT THOSE CHANGES.

The c.. 4 N. W. Ry Co, seems to
have changed its attitude toward the
people OF this city under the manage
ment of its new division superinten-
dent Mr.. +. j. Byington. He is a
very pleasant man to meet and viii
undoubtedly regain the confidence of
this community for his company.
The city recently asked for certain
changes in the grade crossing at the
foot of Fifth street, in view of the
permanent Improvement which ia
contemplated. Supt Byington per-
sonally investigated the matter ana
gave orders which quickly got the re-
suits the city desired The Kimbalf
mine spur which was included I'm the
change, Is held pointly with the c..
NJ a. st. p, Ry. Co, and the latter.
as usual, was willing to accommo-
date the public.
The action taken indicates that the
railroad realizes the Importance OF
having the good will OF the public I'm
the competition for the rail business
OF the community.
