The new Russian government is
threatened with overthrow and de
struction by anarchists. which vlr-
tually eliminates Russia from the
war leaves it exposed to German
invasion and utter prostration.
These IawIess anarchists are the
offspring or production of the
tyranical government Of the cz;.rs.
They were driven to lawlessness
by intolerable oppression. The
men Of intelligent patriotism are
trying to build a free government
on the ruins of tyranny out Of rot

Bowel Complaints in India.

In a lecture at one of the Des
Moines, Iowa, churches a mission
airy from India told Of going into
the interior Of India, where he
was taken sick, that he had a bot
tie Of Chamberlain s Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy with
him and believed that it saved
his life. This remedy is used sue
cessfully in India both as pre-
ventive and cure for cholera. You
may know from this that it can
be depended upon for the milder
forms of bowel complaint that
occur in this country. Obtainable
everywhere.

PECAN ORCHARDS
MAY BE IMPROVED
Top-Grafting or Budding Recommend
ed For inferior Trees.

From a partial survey Of pecan or
chards in Louisiana during the past
year 1t appears that the Stuart,
Schley, Success and Moneymaker are
the varieties that are giving the most
general satisfaction among growers
In the state. Many varieties now being
propagated will have to be discarded
entirely because of defects that pre-
vent profitable production. Trees pro-
dueing inferior nuts and non-produc-
tive trees can, however. be converted
into any variety desired by topgraft~
ing or budding VITA desirable Va
rieties.
Pecan orchardists In this state, as a
rule, have planted their trees too
close. From observations made in
bearing orchards up to twenty-five
years OF age 1t appears that 100 feet
by 100 feet is not to much space for
full root and top development of an
Ideal bearing tree under average soil
conditions.
General suggestions for transplant
Ing may be had from publications on
pecan culture, but it might be well to
stress here the following points:
l. The pecan roots should never be
allowed to dry.
2. Holes should be dug six inches
deeper than the tree Is to be set and
wide enough to give six inches of loose
earth beyond the tips OF the lateral
roots.
8. Good surface soil should be used
In filling holes and the tree should
not be set deeper than 1t stood In the
nursery row
No fertilizer should be put In i
contact with the roots.
B. At time of planting all roots
should be trimmed to sound wood
With sharp knife.

LITTLE BAYOU OIL FIELDS.

Saturday evening last new oil
well was brought in in the Little
Bayou field near New liberia. It
was at first reported that a big
gusher was brought in, but the
amount of oil produced was not
large. this however, being about
a mile from the first one, estab-
fishes the fact that this field is
extensive.-St. Martin Messenger.

SUGGESTIONS FOR THE
COTTON FARMER
Growing of Food and FesdstuHs and
Maintaining Soil Fertility Two
Main Considerations.

Growing cotton IN Louisiana as a
lions is not a safe farming PROPOSE
ton AS n rule, however, whers labor
Is available, farmers in the cotton
growing sections of the state should
NOE abandon this crop, but should
plant it only on land that is hest suit
cd 10 it's production. This land
should be properly fertftixed, well
worked, and planted TO the variety Of
seed best adapted to that particular
section.
To map out a definite system Of
cotton farming fos group of farmers
In single community Is very diff
cult matter, and to make more than
general suggestions that will apply to
whole state is practically impossi-
Bile. The lay OF the land. the fertility
OF the soil, the drainage of the farms
and the ability OF the farmers are all
factors that must be taken into con
sideration in laying out farming sys-
TEN. Two requirements, however, that
every farming system should meet
are: % The growing OF all feed
stuffs and as much as possible of the
food needed on the farm, and (2) I'M
proving or at least maintaining the
fertility of the soil
The small farmer should plant from
one-fourth to one-third Of his culti
waited land In cotton. Oats, or oats
and vstch (planted In the falD should
constitute the main feed crop on ap-
proximately onethird of the farm,
and when this crop Is harvested in
May or early June the land should be
planted to soy beans or other forage
crops that will improve the soil. IL
soy beans are planted the crop can
be utilized as forage or the seed may
be harvested and sold to the oil mills
for the production Of oil and cake
and the straw or stalks can be used
for winter feeding.
The remaining acres on the farm
should be planted to corn and peas,
sorghum, soy beans, sweet potatoes,
peanuts or other crops to meet the
needs of each case and to provide
feed for the animals that should be
kept on every cotton farm. Hogs, cat
tie and chickens should be considered
necessary part of the cotton farm.
The extent to which should be grown
will depend entirely on the ability OF
the farmer to take proper care of
them and furnish an abundance OF
home grown feed for their mainte-
nance Another class animals that
should, generally speaking, be found
on every cotton farm are good brood
mares. These can do at least a part
of the farm work and raise good horse
or mule colts.

EIGHT QUESTIONS TO ASH
ABOUT YOUR SCHOOL.

There is more in the school than
the instruction received in it.
Greater far than figures and rules
is the unconscious influence on the
young mind. Many things, such
as fine, big buildings, are well
worth their cost, but the things
most worth while can be accomp-
lished with little money.
It, BY "worth while" | mean
those things which have the fin
est and most far-reaching influ-
ence on the child s physical health
and the development of his habits
Health and habits become eificien-
cy and character. Is it not so I
Here are some questions to con
slider:
]. The water supply.-This is
important. Is it easily accessible
to the pupils, and yet away from
contamination? If it is well, is
it a deep, cased one, whose chain
or rope no child can get his soiled
hands on?
2. Cleanliness.-Is a place and
basin provided for the child to
wash her hands after touching ev-
erything and before eating lunch ?
3. Drinking cups.-Is the child
whose edge still retains little of
whose edge still retains little of
the saliva from the last child S
mouth
4 4. Comfort.-Are the chill
Hren's feet kept warm and their
heads cool7 Good, close floors,
windows that lower from the top
or screened vents; stove that is
jacketed to draw in the cold air
from the floor while it provides
IgHarm air for the room-has your
schools these7 Are the children s
f4et hanging. If so, find some
sdap boxes to rest them on.
5. The development Of decency

Are they kept clean inside and I'M

club and the school board, surely
a new pit can be dug twice a year,
the clubhouse turned onto a stone

6. Beauty.-Are the children

busted furniture, dainty curtains
and flowers and good. pictures9
The teacher should be able to
keep writing from the walls. She
usually knows the various hand
writings.
Z. Care of the Eyes.--Are the
walls of glaring or dirty white,
or has little yellow or green col
oring been put into save the eyes
Are the blackboard opposite the
window instead Of between them
Noes the light come in from the
children s backs and sides9 Have
