THE BLACK SNAKE WHIP
BY Gideon Hoe
of The VigiIontes

In slavery days the most brutal over
seers were accustomed to drive lazy slaves
to work under the lash. The blacksnake
whip came to have an evil reputation. 1t
was the symbol of the cruel side Of sla-
very, long since done away with in this
country, thank God.
Among the Germans the blacksnake
whip is still in use, and is more infamous
ly employed than ever. Margaret Snod-
grass, Corresponding Secretary of the
American Federation of Teachers, has
this to report:
II have before ne as | write, the OF
ficia text of proclamations Of the Ger
man and Austrian military command IN
the recently occupied districts OF north
ern Italy. These proclamations require
the inhabitants of the region to give all
food supplies OF every kind. All persons
over fifteen, gears Of age are summoned
masters from o clock in the morning
until O. clock in the evening.
Disobedience will be punished in the
following manner: Lazy workmen will be
accompanied in the work and watched by
Germans After the harvest they will be
! imprisoned for six months and every third
day be given nothing but bread and
water. Lazy women will be obliged to
, work and after the harvest will receive
six months Imprisonment. Lazy children
wiN be punished by beating. The COM
mandant reserves the right to punish
lazy women with twenty lashes daily
A careful computation by writer in
The Atlantic Monthly, Nov. 1917, gives
the number Of Belgians, French, Poles,
Serbs, Roumanians, and Russians, re-
duced to very practical slavery as Az
100000. Hundreds of thousands Of Ita-
lians have since been added to these slave

Meanwhile there are thousands of
fatuous Americans who profess to thinl
we should make an immediate peace. Do
they long for the blacksnake whip?

Urges Dealers To Ad-
VertSe
Retail Merchants Association
Strong Believer In Local
Newspaper
From The Publishers AuTilidry

There is nothing that causes news
paper publisher TO feel that his efftr's
are of true value quite as r'u,h as an
hrnest confession from a large and sue
cessful merchant that he attributes his
success to judcious advertising in his
home paper. A statement of this kind
is especially important when it comes
from the head-the president of re-
tail merchants association.
Fred P. Mann is president of the
North Dakota Retail Merchants asso-
citation, headquarters at Devils Lake.
Mr.. Mann is highly successful busi-
ness man and h's success is largely due
to his liberal advertising policy, as is
true of great many others who are in
his class.
As president of this enterprising or
ganization, Mr.. Mann recently attached
his signature to both a letter to the
newspaper men of North Dakota and to
a special appeal to the members Of his
organization-the meat of the cocoanut
being on the subject of extensive adver-
tising to combat the efforts Of the mail
order houses to usurp the respective
fields of the various merchants and let
their patrons know the fact-every week,
or every day their home paper is issued.
Letter to the Newspaper Men
Mr.. Mann's letter to the newspaper
men of North Dakota reads:
"You have received from us under
separate cover details of the fight we
are putting up against the mail order
houses in North Dakota, and how they
have attacked the newspapers as we'll as
the merchants.
"Now, we want you fellows to get
into this fight with us. I know what
can be done by good advertising, and
that it is the only way we can fight
this mail order business.

South Louisiana Shows
Keen Interest In Live
Stock Experiments
Visitors Inspect Results
Of Three Years Work AT
Jeanerette Federal Farm

BY train, trolley, automobile and ear
riage came visitors from miles around
to visit the Iberia Live Stock Expert
ment Station at Jeanerette Tuesday.
The occasion was the third annual Wis
itor S Day and had the national legis-
lators who met Senator Broussard s re-
quest for the station been present they
would feel assured that their appropria-
ton has been far-reaching and Of ma
teral benefit to this section of South
Louisiana. From morning until late in
the evening young men employed by the
U. s. Government to carry on live stock
experiments were busy explaining to the
come and go crowds the. methods used to
produce the excellent results shown. At
ter a few minutes on the Experiment
Farm sll skepticis.a il; regard TO success

The visitors 70 the iberia Farm Tues
Gay were shown thousand head Of sill
age-i a.tened steers. They were grouped
according to age and physical condition
and a perfect record had been kept on
each group showing the kind and am
ount of feedstuffs used. The method of
raising, grinding and storing silage was
also demonstrated. The well-kept pens,
sheds and barns were also objects of in
spection and many Of the planters,
farmers and stockmen found many ad
vantageous hints in their observations.
Visitors also inspected the hog raising
and dairy departments Of the station
and found excellent records on the feed
ing and producing qualities of the diff
ferent animals. The Dur0c hogs and
the Jersey cows have been used for the
experiments and records kept on individ
ual animals show many very fine points.
Monthly production records showing
milk, butterfats, together with the cost
of feeding were displayed at the head of
each dairy COW and many of them show
cd an excellent profit on the milk and
butter produced. Information setting
forth tie cost and methods of raising
dairy calves was furnished. The horse
and mule display included a showing
of individual animals and records of the
cost of and manner Of feeding and rails
ing them.
Governor R. G.. Pleasant and his staff
attended the Stock Show Tuesday. At 3
o clock the Governor left the Expert
ment Station to fill speaking engage
mc,t at Jeanerette. He said that he

A special committee Of the United

that the chamber go on record in

arising from the war.
TT is important" says the commit

taxation to remember that the heavier
the taxes which are now imposed the
more rapidly can taxation be de-

HUNS GOUGE OUTEYES
!. Of AMERICAN MARINES

Tendish horrors to which the Amer
3can soldiers are subjected and un-
apeakable atrocities committed by the
Huns on the marines were vividly
described by Capt Anthony Drexel
Biddle Of the United States Marine
Corps before the Vaughn class of
Calvary Baptist Church yesterday.
Capt Biddle has Just come back from
the front
Marines fighting in France have
come to ,-ealize the necessity for the
eight-to-death spirit their officers
have tried to instill into them" he
said. The favorite method Of torture
used on American soldiers by the
Huns. he added, was to strap them
down, gouge their eyes out and drag
forth their brains through their eye
sockets.
'This I personally saw" he said
~and what have mentioned is but q
fraction Of the horrors of fiendish-
ness to which our boys are sui, ,ectedn n
Capt. Biddle concluded by saying
that Nthis righteous warfare must
continue to the bitter end, for II Is our
task to restore to the peoples Of the
earth q realisation that decency and
civilization shall prevail. and that the
only permanent and perfect rule in
human government IL that of the
kingdom Of Christ. for this Is the
purpose Of the awful conflict now
being waged."
