ESTORGE DRUG COMPAN!
TWO PERIODS FOR
PLANTING CORN

There are two more or less dis
tinct planting periods for the
standard strains of corn in Louisi-
ana. The first, or early, period
would approximate the 10th OF
March and the second the 10Th of
April in Central Louisiana. being
somewhat earlier in the extreme
south and five or ten days later in
the extreme northern portion OF
the State. Corn planted from the
Goth Of March to the 18th of April
is very apt to be destroyed by the
corn root worm. The second
planting period referred to comes
after the first generation Of root
worms has passed into the chry-
sails or resting stage. Very early
ccrn is generally believed to be
safer than late planted corn, ex-
elusive of the danger Of frost. =

THE home PAPER" BIG
FACTOR IN OUR LIVES

"The sway of the home paper
comes over us unconsciously. We
subscribe to it to crafty our curl
osity as to what is going on around
us. Yet from the time we begin
to pick it up, while still school
children, to read, perhaps, how
we are among those who haven t
missed a days attendance, on I'M
til old age has dimmed our eyes,
we have taken it up each week and
have imbibed, without appreclat-
ing the fact, much more than the
neighborhood gossip which we
thought was practically all 1t
brought TO us. We have, indeed,
absorbed its ideas on many sub
jects. We have become advocates
of good roads and good schools
with it; of cleanliness in politics
and of uprightness in business life,
following its imperceptible guld-
ance and little reckoning that we
have not been leaders ourselves
while in truth it has been the de-
pissed purveyor of neighborhood
gossip, as we have looked upon 1t,
that has led us, and this although
we have even often used its actual
language in learnedly expoundlng
our supposedly original views. ="
