Again we wish to call the at
tentlon of our readers, and more
especially to our farming element
that next Monday is set apart as
Visitors Day at the State FIX
perimental Farm. DR.. Mauldin,
the genial and courteous superin-
tendent in charge is hopeful
that every one interested in the
important york carried on by the
Farm will make it their especial
business to visit the Farm on that
day. A program has been ar
ranged that will be interesting
and instructive to all who are
seeking information along scien-
tifc lines and it 'behooves our
agricultnrists and business men
to lend their presence there next
Monday.
-Statistician J. A. Babin of
the Agricultural Department of
Uncle Sam again furnished us
with a detail report of the cotton
crop Of the State Of Louisiana |
during 1916. 1t was noted that
Iberia is credited with only four /
bales Of the feecy stapl'.
lnasmuch as there was only two
gins operating in this Parish last
year, great portion of the
crop found its way to VermiliOn,
st. Martin and Lafayette parish
es, consequently they got the ben
eft of it. Mr.. Babin informs us
that iberia will raise not less than
two thousand bales during the
present season Judging from the
amount of acreage planted in cot
on by our small farmers. Cot
ION being an earl crop our farm
RS were wise in making prepare
ions to plant a large acreage and
with the bouteous prices prevail

of shoes Il year. These women. he says,
many of them, construct their own
styles, and naturally they not only
have shoes for every occasion and
every gown, but they never think of
wearing shoes that are not perfectly
fresh. They order from six to eight
pairs of shoes at time. All this will

DOG RESCUER PERISHES.
Saved Eighteen Men and Was Thsn
Burned to Death.

Frankfort. Ind.-The coach dog that
saved the lives OF eighteen colored men
employed on the construction gang of
the new Indianapolis Frankfort rail
road persisted In the flames that de-
stroyed the house in which the men
lived.
One of the men, who slept with his
clothes on, was ON fire when awakened
by the barking of the dog. The men
rushed from the burning structure and
the last man out closed the door, unin
tentionally holding the dog a prisoner.
A few minutes later one of the men
remembered the animal, but the house
could not be reached because of the
flames, and the dog was burned to
death.
