Here h = bit Of information witch
came to tho editor Of the New Era in
;. personal letter from Denver man
who hsd . little time to observe what
was done in the recent session Of the
legislature. It contains . whole lot
and we want to pass 1t along just as
this friend said It, and here 1t Is:
"Honestly Giffin It strikes
me that your Mr.. Bashor should
he given credit for the stand he
took in the recent session OF the
legislature. It was positively
a disgrace to see federal Office
holders lobbying on the floor of
the House trying to discredit
Democratic <kovernor, and yet 1t
was a pleasure to see the Repub-
lican members Of the House, be-
cause they believed in fairness
and loyalty above petty politics,
standing by that Democratic
governor and saving his face"
Governor Gunter got almost the
same kind Of turn-down in the
house Of representatives which was
handed Governor Ammons by the
Democratic legislature during his ad.
ministration. Ammons had to look
for his support from members Of the
opposition party and now Guntcr fac.
es the same thing.
BashOr does deserve credit. He
stood by Speaker Best and Governor
Gunter all the way thru.

Weather Report

Weather conditions during May
proved generally satisfactory, pro-
vided rain falls within the next few
days. Early corn, as well as cane, is
beginning to feel the need of water,
altho the hot days at the close of the
month did much good in accelera-
ting body growth. Vegetables suf-
fered to some extent for lack of
moisture, while vegetation in gener-
al is somewhat behind similar per-
iods Of other years.
The record for the month was
1.96 inches, with rs on May 5, and
1.16 on May 18th. The balance fell
on May 18th. z
The majority Of the days of May
proved too cool for rapid growth of
cane, corn and garden products. The
cane and corn crops hereabouts,
however, may be said to be far in
advance Of most Years, while the
majority Of the farmers in this Sec
ton report that 1917 bids fair to be
the best year within the past twenty,
insofar as the money crops go.
The following official records are
submitted.

AN APPEAL TO PATRIOTISM
Houma, La, June l, 1917

! uOuNd, Id, d uHe 1, 1S1 T.
Editor Houma Courier.
Houma, La.
Dear Sir:
Have learned with much regret
that opposition to dipping of cattle
exists in the parish and desire
through your columns to bring out
a few reasons why the complete
eradication of the cattle tick will be
of the greatest advantage to our
farmers.
Can say for the beginner that the
past three years l have systemati-
cally dipped from 400 to 500 head
of cattle, including beef and dairy
cattle and have yet to record a
death in the herd due to dipping.
The feet that kind Nature has en-
dowed us with the finest Of pasture
and climate conductive 20 the rails
ing of cattle, should induce every
thinking man who is interested in
himself as well as the welfare of the
Parish of Terrebonne to not only
dip his own stock, but to urge upon
his neighbor the necessity of the
fight upon the worse enemy to 4
prospective industry which in the
near future means prosperity to all
farmers. &+
With the disappearance of the
tick, the Federal quarantine will be
removed and our cattle will be al
lowed the privilege of all markets
insuring a much better price for the
animal and hide. With the disap-
pearance Of the cattle tick will come
confidence by the moneyed men,
who will lend financial assistance
more readily in tick-free than in
tick infested territory.
A cattle loan bank recently estab-
iished in New Orleans will be more
anxious to make loans in Terre
bonnie when the fact is known that
our people have displayed the in.
telligence to eliminate from their
pastures the cattle tick menace.
With the disappearance of the
cattle tick will be afforded an 3D.
portunity of importing into the
community the finest of stock, both
beef and dairy, and when the high
graded registered cattle is brought
INTO Terrebonne Parish the small
farmer will have splendid chance
II improving his stock.
With the disappearance of the
'attle tick will come higher valua-
ion of our cattle land and the free
lick condition will invite the land
purchaser from sections where ticks
ire unknown.
With the disappearance of the
'attle tick will come congratulations
rom other sections, once infested
'ut now enjoying privileges. accord
d to them by intelligently removing
III unnecessary evil. And in conclu-
ion would like to suggest again to
ew dissenting cattle owners oppos-
d to systematic dipping, a lack of
'atriotism in delaying the develop
nent of fine industry in this par
sh and one which will be much
eeded in our country if the war
ontinues for many years.
