THE APPEARANCE OF TRACTOR IN BOGALUsA
has attracted much attention and shown few of the
many wonderful things that this piece of motor driven
machinery will do The tractor has revouionized farm
ing and made possible for this motor wonder to do most
everything the farm in day that it would take teams
and week to accomplish One day this week 1t was
used for couple of hours dragging the streets of the
city and demonstrated that its efficiency the streets
was just great the farm. The farmer who has
enough work to tractor should get one, and It ne
has not enough work to keep one busy then he should
get two three farmers his vicinity to go together
and buy one which would then do their work in one-half
the usual time at onehaf the usual expense. Farmers
know what saving this would mean and appreciate the
usefulness of the tractor than the business once
they it operate We understand that in the near flu
tTe this machine is going to be demonstrated in the city
of Bogalusa and every farmer who possibly be here
should not miss this demonstration.
"a
THE SUGGESTION OF MAYOR SULLIVAN THAT
Commissioner Mills try and decide upon some plan
for building modern school schools that ought
to be followed until Bogausa has one of the finest school
buildings in the state We believe that large central
school building should be erected With central school
building large enough to accommodate all the children OF
Bogausa it should come very near paying for itself over
the present arrangement There would be great saving
in the salaries of teachers janitors fuel and other ex
penses there was one building which would give the
schools all the room necessary There has been OBJ
Lection expressed central school owing to the distances
from one section of the city to the other but in many cities
and especially in rural districts everywhere children go
further to school than they would if building cen
tTally located in Bogalusa.
IF GOVERNOR SANDERS WANTS TO GIVE THEI
citizens of Bogausa Christmas present which will bel
greatly appreciated he try and have the government
give better mail service by having the lockpouch down
in the morning and up in the evening changed so as to
give Bogalusa much needed Improvement As it Isl great
inconvenience caused to people who have mail to each
New Orleans and points in the North and East after 230
in the afternoon takes about long to get mail to
nearby towns after 230 in the afternoon as does to ge
