CANE GROWERS GLOOMY.

together with the treatment re-
ceived by the action of the Uni

setting a selling price Of cane at
not more than 1922 per ton has
had a bad effect upon the cane
growers in Louisiana. In the
first place the protracted drouth
materially cut down the yield of
the cane at least fifty per cent.
which was a great disappoint-
ment to the farmers in this Sec
ton who had looked forward to a
good crop this season. Secondly,
the early freeze and great scare
ity Of labor caught the farmers III
such a predicament that major
ity of them failed to save their
seed. In some instances. from
what we learn they refuse even to
windrow the crop because Of the
hardships in procuring the nee
essary hands since the draft on
field labor has taken place. With
but fifty per cent. crop and the
price so ridiculously low just at
a time when there is such great,
demand for common labor every
where, necessitating better scale
of wages, the cane farmer does
not feel justified to grow cane
much longer to supply the sugar
mills. This crop as we all know
is one of the most uncertain crops,
to raise and when the growers are
with first one obstacle
and then another while the wheat.
rice end corn planters enjoy ev-
cry protection that can be af-
forded, it is but natural to expect
them to turn to other crops where
The investment is much smaller

will justify the refner in paying

1ucts. Unless something is done,

within few years the only cane

PULP MILL NEARLY COM
PLETED.

We were most agreeably sur
prised this week when upon invl
tation Of Mr.. Bernard, the man
ager, we made an inspection OF
the new plant Of the Sugar Cane
By-Products Co. and where we
had the pleasure of meeting Mr.
M. w. Marsden, whom great
+ many Of our business people fav-
orally remember as the organizer
of the above named company and
who is now here from Philadel-
phia, giving instructions to the
management to rush the compile
ton of construction and installa-
ton Of the machinery which has
all arrived and is now being put
in place, so that it appears with
the extra force Of men now en-
ployed the plant will be making
paper pulp within thirty days.
Mr.. Marsden has brought with
, him Mr.. A. R. PAUL from the
East who is a practical and ex-
perienced constructing engineer as
well as an expert in the manufac-
ture Of sulphite and other grades
of paper pulp. Mr.. PAUL will re-
main here to complete the plant
and superintend the construction
as well as the operation of the
plant successfully. New Iberia
will have the first real pulp mil!
running under processes and pat
ents now owned by the Sugar
Game By-Products Co. and New
Iberia has good reasons to feel
proud Of being the pioneer OF this
rev and valuable industry which
will extend throughout the entire
State Of Louisiana and giving en-
ployment to thousands, no doubt.
As we understand that the Com |
pany intends selecting locations
Ii different parts of the State,
sufficient at least to utilize the
major portion of the raw mater
ia]. so plentiful throughout the
State and creating an industry for
fhe utilization of what has prac-
fically heretofore been . waste,

We have long wished for such
an industry in New Iberia. Now
We are about to witness the reali-
station. Few Of our people realize
the quantity 81 machinery that
xoes into Z pulp mill. and we were
most apreeably surprised and as
tonished to see that so much ma
chinery was actually here. and in

days when the first pulp is turned

The citizens Of New iberia, sx-

But the camel is not really patient.
His Is the docility that is associated

Plunge the weapon into It and rip it

and conserve the food supply. Secre-
tary Of Agriculture Houston asks
mothers" and daughters" Of every
state TO organize and expend all anvil
able energy in canning, preserving,
picking, drying and storing these prod

Secretary Houston Is Of the firm be
lief that this problem may best be
solved locally. No federal or state
government, he believes, can 10 any
thing unless women in every city and
town do what they can to help.
The woman who has no garden Is
asked TO purchase full supplies for
her own immediate and future use.
Topographic reports from "a states
