them?
STOP! LOOK! LISTEN!
May the gods save our city from
its satisfied citizens"
In this day Of red-blooded COM
petition between cities, is it to the
interest of any contestant in the
great game of commerce to lessen
its chances by internal dissention?
While the cancer of jealousy, envy
and Indifference saps the vitality of
a community, its competitors forge
to the front with the irresistible
sweep born of unity Of purpose.
Does our Indifference lead US to
believe that there is nothing to be
done? Has the heaped-up exche-
quers Of the prosperity-laden Sec
tons Of America no significance to
our minds? Can not we awaken to
the fact that there are countless
millions of dollars whose owners
are anxiously looking about for
means to make them grow? Is not
the fact acceptable to our minds
that our state is strong claimant
for the surplus wealth now over
flowing from Golfers of the war
enriched brothers Of the North?
Surely it is not necessary for one to
repeat to US the reasons that Louis
lana is attracting the attention of
the capitalists? Let US silently thank
the fates that have allotted to us
the privileges that are ours. Let
US join hands and hearts in the fray
and forget our animosities and bury
our differences in a mighty munich
pal effort to bring to our door the
that await the conqueror.

BONDS FOR SCHOOL BUILDING

The Advisory Building Commit
tee has decided that the school
building needs can be met with a
bond issue of 100000.
Lucky, lucky property taxpayers.
Instead of having to pay taxes
on an issue of 100000 or more.
which amount in the minds of many
was absolutely needed in order to
do the right thing right, call for
but 100000 is made. Property tax
payers have a great deal to thank
the Advisory School Building Com
mittee for in this instance and pro-
baby one of the most emphatic
methods to show appreciation will
be for each individual property tax
payer to make it his personal bust
ness to see that the bond issue is
carried without a single opposing
vote. The Committee has saved you
at least $4,000, Mr.. Property Tax
payer-it's up to you to show that
you appreciate having'a real honest
to-goodness committee of business
men who have economically con-
served your interests
The School Building Committee
attorney is rushing the preliminary
legal technicalities leading up to the
election call and the question will
probably be put before spring is
past. Is it not your wish, Mr.. Pro-
perry Taxpayer, to relieve as quick
~ as possible the unbearable con-
gestion now so evident in the school
facilities? Is there any reason on
earth that would influence you in
refusing to the children this humane
relief? Will you as broad-minded
citizen consider that this bond issue
is for the children and that there is
no correlating question Of contracts,
sites, or any little petty-political
difference of sufficient moment to
cause you or any MAN to encourage
opposition.
There il no dissenting voice as to
the pressing need Of more school
room. There will probably be no
man advance the idea that the Com
mittee has asked for more than is
needed. If these two things are ap-
parent to. you and you feel that the
0hond money will he used for the ex-
act purpose for which it is voted,
will it not be your pleasure as well
as your duty to vote for the issue
and to lend it your hearty support?
At least, if there is no other rea-
con for voting this bond issue, it
might be well to vote before the
rapidly growing territory prompts
the Advisory School Building Com
mittee to rsscind their resolution
and ask for twice 100000.

WHAT IS BEST TO BE DONE

There is an injunction suit filed
in the parish courts to prevent the
Police Jury from carrying out its
decision to surface the strip Of road
on Avoca Island between the Avoea
Bridge and the Chene Bridge. The
money to be extended for this pro-
posed road improvement is the re-
sidue of a certain bond issue voted
by the entire parish for roads i'm
provement purposes. The injunc-
ton suit now filed is the result of a
petition signed by number Of citi-
zens Of Tiger Island who believed
that the Police Jury had acted with
out their rights and in bad faith
with the citizens of Tiger Is
land in making the appropriation
for road improvement on Avoca Is
land in reference to expanding the
appropriation upon the Amelia-Mor-
gan City road on Tiger Island. Al
their last meeting, the Police Jury
ratified their Avoca Road appropri-
alton by accepting at the hands of
the donors the bridges over the
Boeuf and the Chene connecting the
ends Of the road to be surfaced with
the Tiger Island road on the west
and the New Orleans. road on the
east.
The question is now being asked
as to what is best to be done just at
this time? There is no doubt that
the signers Of the injunction petit
ton acted in good faith in an effort
to remedy a situation which they
considered unjust and there is no
doubt that there probably remains
in the minds Of the petitioners that
conviction. TO establish their con-
victions in the minds Of the Police
Jury, the petitioners made strong,
serious effort and are still in posi-
ton to keep up the fight. But is il
worth while from a standpoint Of
ultimate profit to the parish and to
Tiger Island? Is the amount invol-
we'd sufficient to justify the litiga-
ton? Now that q compromise which
will give to each road about twelve
thousand dollars has been suggested
"a compromise which the Police
Jury has apparently refused to con-
brings tie amount invoL
we'd down to . very small sum to
Justify the court costs and bicker-
ings which are the inevitable COM
panions Of law suits. a

need surfaced roads and all Of them
We can possibly get. Il it best At
his time for Morgan City to pre-
rent the building Of one road that
8 apparently arranged for and fl
lanced even if one is convinced that
is not the particular road that
Morgan City and Tiger Island pre-
erred to have first surfaced? Is it
lot q fact that after the surfacing Of
he elia-Morgan City road we
vould have gladly learned that the
'olice Jury was also able to sacri-
ice the enjoined strip? Do we, as q !
ity make up Of progressive individ-
als, not want to see every main
Dad and every by-road surfaced
nd put into first-class condition?
The Review is not, to be placed in

U. S. INVESTIGATES
MANY DAIRY HERDS

In cooperation with the extension
department of Purdue university the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture last year made an investigation of
III" cost of producing milk in l6 dairy
herds in Porter county. Indiana. In
that study ii was found that when
other conditions Were the same, the
dairNmcn VITO fed the largest quantity
of clover, nlfAfa and other lcgume
hays used 81 per cent less grain with
out lcss"ning the production of their
COWS. That is. the dairymcn who fed
legumc hay obtained as much milk
from 81 pounds of grain as the others
obtained from 100 pounds Of grain.
Such Il saving is certainly worth
while. Patriotism demands increased
production: tn" high cost of living
demands economical production; both
those demands are met when all our
good cows are kept. and when their
milk flow is maintained at low cost.

WEATHER FORECAST
SHOULD BE WATCHED

Loss of perishable food products can
often avoided throlgh a knowledge
Of coming weather conditions. During
the summer season great deal of
food is spoiled by high temperatures.
This wastago is widespread. 1t oc-
ours in many households. 1t may be,
and oftcntimes is. occasioned by care
lessness or lack of forethought. Re-
frigerators are insufficiently iced Fa-
miles leave home for the day on pic
mics without making provision for tax :
ing in ice in their absence.
1t is possible to avoid a great deal
OF the waste of this character by tax
ing heed of the daily forecasts of prob
able temperature issued by the weather
bureau and which are universally pub
lished by the daily press.
The conservation OF ice. likewise,
and this In itself Is important, may be
Effected by taking similar precautions.
Watch the weather forecast.

STORY OF THREE
HIRED MEN AND
WHAT THEY DID
Farm Help That Never Busts
Anything Won't Amount
to Much on Ranch.
ey A. e. chamb { Rain.

The writer had three hired men ono
year on the farm that were totally
unlike. One Of them would get up
on the gang plow with four horses
OH it and shout. Cit up." He would
yell it in q way that would scare
any horse that had any sense. He
would stick the pillow in the ground and
go tamming down across the field and
by and by he would get a ilttle deeper
than had been plowed before and
away would 70 a great big double
tree or a single tree or a tug. That
fellow was everlastingly and eternally
breaking something. and the boss was
everlastingly and eternally sore at
him.
One Of the other men was one Of
those fellows who reasons as he
works and didn't give the boss much
trouble. lie didn't break very much
stuff and still he got things done.
The third man was from down
where they have. warm winters and
he was really too near dead to talk
fast. He sort of drawled 1t out. He
was slower than molasses in January
In this country. If you saw him at
work you felt like turning your back
and looking the other way for fear
you would go to sleep. He never
busted anything until one day after
he had been there several months he
came sauntering up the lane with a
broken tug out of the harness. We
remember distinctly how interested
we were when we found that fellow
had busted" something. We began
to have hopes for him. He had been
the most good for nothing proposition
we had had around the place in years
But when We saw him coming up the
lane with that broken tug, we did
actually have hopes for him.
There are so many people in this
country that pride themselves or
never 'busting" anything For good.
ness sake bust" something once il
awhile. The fellow who never 'busts'
anything is never working quite a
his best. Give us q buster rathe,
than a dead one.

GOVERNMENT ADVISES
FARM ORGANIZATIONS

One of the greatest needs of the
present war, according to the United
States department OF agriculture. is
the effective organization Of agricnl-
tural forces. The department advo-
Gates the formation of county farm bu
rc.ius as an effective means of sccur-
ing needed local organization.
The county farm bureau, says tina
department. helps to unity the efforts
of existing farmers organizations and
to strengthen their work. The burea Il
is likened to rural chamber of agri-
culture, corresponding in many of its
functions to q city chamber of COM
merce. The farm bureau grew ont of
Il similar need for effective agricul-
tural organization to meet rural prob
lens. and it has been described rs o.
ganiaed self-hclp. 1t started as an
outgroWth of the work done by county
agricultural agents. but it has become
the local federating agency through
which groups of rural people may find
expression.

DEFENDS GENERAL
ADVANCE IN MILK
Magazine Says Dairyman
Needs Rise in Price.

The following article on the advance
in milk prices was published in a re-
cent iss,le of Hoard's Dairyman:
The milk dealers of Cleveland, Ohio
consumer cents per quart and s cents
a gallon to the producers. Dairymen
have been reducing their herds to such
an extent that Cleveland is threatened
with shortage of milk. In order to
avert any such calamity the price of
milk was raised August |, or two
months before the contracts expired.
This was a sensible move. for the sur
est and best way to secure an ample
milk supply is by paying enough for
milk to make it profitable for the
farmer to produce 1t.
The milk dealers Of New England
recognized In June the conditions un
der which dairymen were placed and
raised the price Of milk to % cents c
gallon on July l. The price for beef
has given the owners of ordinary cows
a good opportunity to get rid of them,
but too many cannot be spared in y
short period Of time. 1t Is a healthy
condition that some of the poor cows
are finding their way to the shambles
but in order to keep up the proper sup
ply of milk their places must be filled
with better cows.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer. which Is
one of the few dailies that keeps Itself
informed upon dairy matters, makes
the following statements in nm edlto
rial:
THE condition facing the dairymer
who supply the Cleveland market is
one OF real difficulty Unless the sit
