~ HIS year the subject OF

a state grading standard.

for both these changes. When

A MAKESHIFT

q WING to the fact the lit
VI tie town of Monmouth
lacks sufficient grade pu-
psls to provide practice training
Tor the students at the Mon
mouth normal a makeshift ar
Eangement has been set up un-
der which pupils from the In
dependence schools, several
miles away are to be used.
There are many reason for
doubling the successful work
ing of such a plan. 1t involves
tire transportation of the pupils
from one town to another or
else the normal students will
have to go to independence
when they get their practice
training. For the people of In
dependence it means that they
provide pupils for the normal
school training department
while their neighboring town
gets all the benefits from the
maintenance of the normal
school within its borders. OBJ
viously it is an arrangement
that may not always work sat
isfactory to all concerned.
The condition at Monmouth
illustrates the folly Of estab
6shing a normal school in
dttle town not having a prope
number Of grade pupils for tn
practice training work.

WOOL CROP BRINGS
HANDSOME RETURNS

Rosenthal & Brown, Lake Charles
commission merchants, was in Welsh
Monday and bought a quantity Of
wool produced by the farmers south
of town. Mr.. Brown bought 1900
of wool, paying therefor about $3.50.
$3.50 for a small load of farm pro-
duce sounds big, and in all probability
it means a very handsome profit on
the investment for the producers.
This section is not a heavy producer
of sheep, but the few that are raised
are showing a handsome profit with

rice; ia teaspoons salt; 1 tablespoon
sugar; butter (if used), l tablespoon
or less; 1-2 cake compressed yeast; 2
cups wheat flour.
Steam the rice with one-haf of the
liquid until it is soft. This is done
better in a steamer than in a double
boiler, for the liquid is so small in
amount that the rice does not become
soft readily and the presence of the
steam helps. Put the sugar, salt, and
fat (if used) into the mixing bowl
and pour over them the remaining Ii
quid (l.2 cupful). When the mixture
has become lukewarm add the yeast
and 1-2 cupful of flour. Allow this
sponge to rise until very light. Add
the boiled rice, which should have
been cooled until lukewarm, and the
rest of the flour. Allow the dough to
rise until it has doubled its bulk, form

size, allow it to rise until it nearly
reaches the top of the pan, and bake

If you wish to own a Liberty Loan
Bond you should act at once The
subscription for these bonds will close
on June 18th after which they will
not be obJainable.
Mr.. Willard, manager of the Calca-
sieu National Bank, announces that
his bank has made arrangements to
purchase the bonds in any denOmina-
ton which they are issued for the
customers of his bank. You may Sc
cure any amount of the bonds you de-
sire by making a cash payment Of two
per cent Of their face value, and have
a whole year to pay the balance, max
ing either weekly or monthly pay
mentS, to suit your convenience. The
interest on the bonds is 3 1-2 per
cent, and the bank will charge you
IL per cent on the advances for
their purchases, so that at the end of
the first year, while you are paying
back the borrowed capital, you will
still have an interest credit on our
investment. The bonds, themselves,
are all the security that is required
for their purchase.
1t has taken world of publicity tC

bonds were really a good profitable
investment. Many good business mer
have labored under the impression
that their purchase was merely pa
, triotic demonstrations sort of ta2
or donation to the government, it be
, ing a question in their mind whethe
the purchasers would even get thei
original investment back. Since tn

THE TERMS OF THE LIBERTY
LOAN
The act authorizing the Liberty
Loan Bonds of 1917 was passed April
"a 1917. 1t provides for the issuance
of $5,000,000,000 of 3 1-2 per cent
bonds, the interest payable semian-
nually on December IS and June Is
of each year. The principal is repaya-
bic on or after the 18th day of June,
1882, at the option of the Govern
ment, and if this option is not eXer-
cised the bonds will run full 80 years
and become due June Is, l947.
The bonds are exempt both as to
principal and interest from all taxa
ton, national, State, county, or mu-
nicipal, except the inheritance tax,
which is really not tax on the prop
erty, but on the transfer of property
by will or inheritance.
The bonds are to be sold at par;
that is, dollar for dollar, no premium
and no discount. They are to be sold
by the President Of the United States
=, and by all Federal Reserve banks.
:. But all banks, National and State,
= post offices, and express companies
= have been designated as agents of the
! Government to receive applications
= for these bonds. 1t is almost as easy
to purchase one of these bonds as it is
to get a post-office money order.
1t is not necessary to pay cash in
full for bond. One can pay down 2
4 per cent of the purchase price on ap-
. plication-that is, 81 for $50 bond,
SO for a 500 bond, etc.-18 per cent

is WHAT A GOVERNMENT BOND IS
,e The Government Of the United
l. States has two methods of raising
s. money. One is BY taxation. The
p other is. by the sale Of bonds which is
ne method of borrowing money.
Or The Government bond is the printed
y, promise of the Government to pay
ty back the borrowed sum of money at
certain time, and to pay interest on
it at regular intervals until it is re-
st paid.
be The Government borrows money In
O. this way onlw after it has been given
e. the right to do so by act of Congress
ce approved by the President, and the
Oh terms of the loan are set out in the
e. act.
as Back of the promise Of the Govern
TO ment stands the honor of the Govern
cir ment and all its taxing resources
Really the whole wealth Of the Natlol
.at stands behind this solemn promise O
cir the Government to pay.

Why is rice mans most dependable
source of food supply? Because it is
water~wheat, provided by the Gre
ator, adapted to wet and warm eli
mates. It is we'll called "Water
Wheat" for when it is or inches
high, water is applied and the fields
kept flooded or very wet until the
crop is matured. To illustrate the
Importance and volume of rice irriga-
ton water, the City of Memphis is
about nineteen square miles in area,
with an estimated population Of 1885,
900 and consumes about 10000
gallons of water daily; the same area
planted in rice would require 121,-
100000 gallons daily, approximately
ten times the present city demands
Thus, it is clear that efficient n.y.
draulic engineering is a more impor-
tant factor in rice production than in
city water supplies.
Rice is the most dependable and
hardest cereal known; and can be
produced where other cereals die. II
will grow on marshy land, but does
better on rich, well drained land
properly irrigated. Hot sun and rain
nourish the plant, but it will exist
without rain in its early stages long
err, and stand more grief in storm pc
RODS, than any other food product
also, it's production is more nearly
under mans control. With a gooC
seed-bed, fertile seed, and water
properly applied, heavy yield is'as
sured.
Governments records show average
annual production per acre Of whea
as IL bushels, corn ID, rice ~; thi
large yieuld of rice is made possible
by the fact that it will thrive unde'
hot sun and water, which would b.
death to all other cereal, tuber, grass
and fruit families-they requiring
the application of water when tn
earth is shaded by rain-clouds or a
night, otherwise scalding will result
