Method Of Treatment to Eradicate Lice
on Farm Animals.
This is the time Of year when lice
begin their worst work. Live stock.
especially calves and colts, suffer tor
ments and grow thin and rough look
ing when much Of their grief is due to
the unchecked ravages of lice. Many
a COW has struggled through the win
ter trying to furnish milk and feed an
army Of crawling. blood sucking pests
besides.
Lice can be got rid of without much
expense or labor. The sheep dips on
the market mixed to a strong louise So
luton well warmed and sponged ON to
the animal. going the wrong way OF
the hair, will do the business.
Don't Just dampen or wet the animal
In few places. but soak every inch
thoroughly. Do this In the sunshine on
a warm day and provide shelter until
dry.
Repeat again in ten days and wash
managers, posts and rubbing places
around buildings with the same sou
ton.

RETROSPECTIVE
Fifty Years Ago.

From the Banner Of March IS, 1s67-Bellevue.l
"We now receive the Shreveport
papsrs by way of Monroe and Minden.
They are sometimes two weeks old
when they each US. Who is to blame?
THAT was, of course, before the days
Of leves protection. At times flood
water from Red River covered about
the whole of the bottoms. Readers
of the Banner then residing at Belle
vue can remember of making more
than one-third Of the trip from that
town to Shreveport by water.]
Under the heading Remarkable
Weather" the Banner said: Son the
18th instant, at noon, we had summer
weather, the thermometer at 80. Dur
ing the evening the wind veered
around to the northeast, and at nine
O'Clock am. on the 18th slcet, hail
and snow began to fall rapidly, and
by night the face of the earth was
white with snow and hail, and on the
morning CT the 18th the thermometer
stood at 20 degrees. Our fields and
gardens were green and the orchards
in full bloom. There will be no fruit
raised this year. We are now, in
deed, left out in the cold, in spite of
the efforts CT cur few Northern
friends" The editor later added to
the above 9 paragraph which read
"On Wednesday night we had the
severest frost of the winter, and on
Friday morning another snow storm.
AS we are going to press FRIDAY
a. noon) the whole country is robed in
white, and it looks more like January
in Canada than March in Louisiana. !"

Belief That This Legume May Be
ProfitabIy Rotated With Cotton.

Belief That This legume May Be
ProfitabIy Rotated With Cotton.
The department of agriculture and
the various state experiment stations
are conducting wide experiments to
discover the various forage crops best
suited to conditions in the southern
states, says the Home and Farm. The
soy bean is now the subject Of thor
ough experiments in various sections.
While the bean may be grown
throughout the humid and semihumid
sections Of the south and in the south
ern portion Of the corn belt, it thrives
especially well in the cotton growing
regions. For this reason it offers an
excellent opportunity to the cotton
planter for adjusting his farm plans to
offset the damage to cotton inflicted by
the boil weevil
From the farmers point of view the
existence Of the many oil mills In the
south and the probability that by fur
nishing demand for soy beans these
concerns will make the legume an I'M
p6rtant cash crop should greatly facili-
tate the introduction of the new prod
net on a commercial scale. Soy beans

should be of additional interest to
farmers since, as In the case of other
legumes, their culture improves the
soil.
AS pasturage crop this legume is
rich in protein and is particularly suit
ed for pasturing hogs, especially so
when the beans are grown for soil i'm
prOvement. When the plants are young
and tender the hogs will practically eat
the whole of the plant, but after they
become mature and hard and woody
they will not be eaten SO readily. BY
planting the same variety at different
dates or by using varieties with differ
ent dates Of maturity the grazing may
be extended over considerable period.
Although this crop is chiefly used for
pasturing hogs, all other kinds Of live
stock may be pastured on it If desired.

which may be seen in every farmers
home where there is flock Of geese
kept speak for themselves. Besides
there Is Il good market for all surplus
feathers and also for the fat goose.
which is purchased for many Christ
mas. New Year and other special din
ners.
The young geese. as well us the old
cnes. will thrive when kept on green
pasture. The eggs which they produce
are hrge and rich and find a ready
market. Hence the farmer who keeps
Il large flock of geese will make good
profit. Geese will begin to lay the last
of February or the first of March. 4
. neighbor who still raises geese never
allows the mother goose to incubate
her own eggs. The eggs arc set under
chicken hens. allowing six or eight
eggs to eacl, hen. according to the size
OF the hen. After Matching the young
goslings are not fed anything for a day
and night. but are allowed to remain
quietly in the nest. After this water is
placed before them. and they are fed
breadcrumbs mixed with charcoal
which, has been pulveriZed. Young Cos
lings will eat green stuff almost from
the beginning, as grass is their natural
food: grass md other vegetation is
chopped up finely and fed to them plen-
tifully. The goslings are kept sheltered
from rain and cold until they are strong
enough to overcome these evils. When
they are fully feathered they. with the
mother hen. are placed inside the pas
ture. where they will need hut little
more attention except to provide them
with plenty of water.

Shreveport, pending the completion
of his new bank building, corner of
Market and Milan Streets" The
new bank building referred to by the
Banner was one of exceptional pre-
tensions for Shreveport at that time.
It was for a number of years occupied
by the Commercial National Bank,
but is now the downtown office Of
the Texas and Pacific Railway Com
pany. It was the first cut-corner
building erected in Shreveport

ing, among Bossier's progressive and

The paragraph is reproduced to show
that the need of cooperation in the
growing and marketing of our crops
was recognized thirty years ago as
well as to-day. That the entire South
has made remarkable progress along
these lines since that day will not be
denied by any one.l
"The Haughton and Bellevue Hack

There may be Just few of the old
time hacks and stage coaches left in
the interior districts of the West.

Marketing Winter Tomatoes.

Especial care must be given hot
house tomatoes produced during win
ter. says Professor A. L. Wilkinson.
In January and February the market
Is at its best. but the highest price Is
only paid for special tomatoes. They
are carefully graded as to size, only
those of the same size being placed in
the receptacle. Each fruit is wiped.
1t is a decided advantage to wrap each
fruit In soft tissue paper. and on this
tissue paper many growers are placing
trademark. The tomatoes are packed
firmly.

Salt For Dairy Cows,

From one to two ounces Of salt daily.
in accord with the amount Of milk pro-

ments Of a dairy COW on rations Of or
binary feeds, according to DR.. E. B.
Forbes of the Ohio experiment sta

milking as much as forty five pounds
daily and fed common feeds he found
that one ounce Of salt a day satisfied
the cows needs.

Three obituary notices appeared on
the local page Of that issue of the

Mrs. Zula Arnold, who died at their
homes near Carterville, and Mr.. |. T.
Gilmore, who died at Port Arthur,
Texas, whsre he was visiting his son,
Mr.. e. E. Gilmore. All three of these
deaths occurred during the month of
February. Mr.. Gilmore was the
father of Mrs. F. M. Britt of Haugh-

a Confederate veteran, and will be
