THE PEANUT CROP

Wore consideration has been given
10 the raising of peanuts in the
South this year than ever before,
says the State Marketing Bureau.
Unfortunately many Of the grow.
efS made no distinction between Va.
rleties suitable for the market and
,, those best adapted to hog feeding.
Very little attention was given to
SEED selection or to the purity of
the seed, and as a result the product
If taking a low grade and price on
the market.
Although the bulk Of the crop will
Do used for forage yet the grinding
OF peanuts has attained considerable
dimensions and as cotton pressing
riills can be quickly readjusted to
grind peanuts, the number Of mills
entering this field has greatly in.
creased during the current year. It
seems probable that the planting Of
PEANUTS has this year outstripped the
provision for grinding the supply Of
nuts that will be available for that
purpose.
The acreage planted to peanuts in
various states was estimated in June
rs follows: Virginia., $4,000 acres;
North Carolina, $4,000; Georgia, $780,.
GOO; Alabama, 100000; Florida, 2SS,.
CSC; Texas, 100000; Oklahoma, H..
600; South Carolina, $4,000; Tennes.
see, $4,000; Mississippi, $4,000; Louis
lana, $4,000; all other states, 1900.
No estimate of forecast has been
made Of the production of nuts this
year.
The demand is primarily for the
Medium White Spanish or True
Spanish, and every farmer who ex
poets to grow peanuts for the mar.
ket next year should arrange now for
a supply Of pure seed Of this varie.
ty for next years planting. II fair
grade Of seed Is available 1t should
be hanipicked and only sound seed
that Is true to variety selected for
planting. Any mixture lowers the
grade by at least one grade or Sc
to SIC or more a ton. This differ
ence in price will more than pay the
difference in cost between poor seed
and good seed.

on the back, to look into his face and
say "howdy?"

A nature that lifts up the other fell

OF thorns, that shows him the rift In

Hurrah for the other fellow who

THE SWEET POTATO
CROP
q . . = 3 80 = = $50,

The South has the largest crop Of
sweet potatoes in its history, and
Florida's share in the total of some
50 million bushels is about one
twentieth, says the State Marketing
Bureau 1t is estimated that hereto
fore quite one-half was lost through
various causes. The government has
been making Investigations and the
conclusion Is that the only safety is
in good handling and drying. The
Department of Agriculture has pre-
pared plans to build storage houses
at small cost. and these are available
free in Florida to all who apply to
the State Experiment Station at
Gainesville.
4 Anent this subject Of drying out
sweet potatoes and holding them for
distribution as needed, a letter by
Charles c. Ibach to the Register Of
Mobile, Ala, says
81 had occasion last February to
buy few cars OF Kindred Nancy
Halls in Mississippi for some Ohio
firms: was surprised to find how sim
Tle and inexpensive these growers
had constructed their kilns; some
OF them had storage room for only
$50 to 200 bushels; these houses in
this section. l Judged, cost the grow.
ays, exclusive of their labor from $40
to 500. These houses were crude.
Of course, but did the work sat
faCtorily. These potatoes went thru
the winter in fine shape. OF course,
a large, we'll built community dryer
would be better, but I am trying 10
impress now the fact that it Is mis-.
take to think they must have large
expensive houses.
81 cannot see why our growers
want to continue taking the chances
of banking their potatoes in the old
way instead OF drying them. 1t
Gems to meet In the majority Of cas-
es, after our growers have held their
potatoes until the prices get high
enough, they find they have lost most
Of their crop In the banks. The
sweet potato game, as l see 1t now,
for the grower, has centered down 10
two propositions, one is to contract
with the Gamers before planting at
fair sure price, or kiln dry them,
and be sure you can hold them for
high prices late In the season. These
growers who are raising early varie.
ties for the Northern Markets, al
seem to be doing we'll, and I think
it would be we'll for more OF our
growers to investigate the success OF
this early crop"

BAN ON TRAPPING PROPOSED
Would Protect Fur-Bearing Animals
and Release Man-Power.

Absolute prohibition, or, at the
very least, material restriction of the
trapping of fur-bearing animals in
Louisiana is urged in a resolution
which was adopted by the food ad-
meeting in New Orleans last Satur-
day and Sunday. This action, ac-
cording to the resolution, has for its
object not only the preservation Of
the fur-bearing animals of the state,
but more particularly the release of
man-power for the production of
food crops.
G. H. Fields, of Union; DR.. J. E.
Doussan, of st. James parish, and A.
l. Picard, of Ascension, are the
sponsors of the resolution, which is
quoted below:
"Whereas, the shortage of labor is
SO acute as to jeopardize the sugar
crop Of Louisiana, particularly dur
ing the grinding season; and,
Whereas, this crop is of primary
Importance to the program of food
production and is therefore entitled
to receive more protection; and,
Whereas, trapping and commerce

The Donaldsonville chief., 1918-06-15

In 1893 when we departed from
cur peaceful policy by declaring war
on Spain, it was for the purpose of
suppressing the horrible outrages and
the excessive cruelty being enacted at
our very doors. It was for the free
ing of the brave Cubans from the
CALLING yoke Of Spanish tyranny. Al
ter we had whipped Spain, what did
we do9 Did we, as every foreign
power thought we would, make
mere tributary state out of Cuba?
Ibid we impose exprbitant taxes on
the unfortunate people and demand
all the other indemnities usually de-
manded by less democratic nations
in the past from subjected provinces!
No. Ever since we signed peace
with Spain we have looked after the
interests Of that island. We have
educated the people, we have attend
ed to whatever misfortunes that over
| took them, we have taught them the
| fundamental principles upon which
| this great republic of ours has been
| built in order that they might become
good. reliable citizens in the future.
We have always acted the part OF the
| bic brother to all struggling re-
| D1blics. We have encouraged them
and protected them from greedy en-
croachine. nations who would have
robbed them of the freedom Tor
which they were fighting.
Then again, think over the Mexi-
can situation. We have taken many
insults, suffered many outrages, and
received much destruction OF Amerl-
can property and numbering Of Amer
lean citizens by this little revoiu-
tionary republic. We had ample
reason to declare war on that coun-
try. Yet we did not. Why, do you
ask? We did not declare war upon
Mexico because our efar-sighted pres
I;dent. Woodrow Wilson, saw that by
! 50 doing we would become enabrolleo
in a war with our neighborlng Cen,
ltral American republics. He saw
that these countries, by means OF
| German propaganda, wholesale prl
/ berry. fraud, cheating and hes
had been worked up to state O
suppressed hostility to the Unitee
States. He saw that such q wa wa
would further Germany's most cher
