morning for the purpose Of looking
into the smallpox situation"
Improved highways are Il good i'll
yeStment in any community, provided
the community is well settled. And
where is the community. in our great
parish that is SO sparSely populated
that it cannot afford good roads,"
The Banner has been harping on
that subject for Il long. long time, and
the good roads for all parts of the par
iSh will yet come.
Tuesday afternoon Mfr. L. T. Land

would move from this place to Homer.
where they will locate permanently
and he will engage in the practice Of
his profession"
Tom was Il successful and prominent
lawyer here and so he continued in his
new field. He and his good wife are
still residents of Homer and (if our
impression is correct) he is now serv
ing his second term as Prosecuting At
tOrney for the Third District.
The following item is from the news
report contributed By the Haughton
correspondent THE managers of the
Sligo Planting Company are preparing
500 acres Of their river land to be
planted to rice. While it is known that
our lands will produce rice. this is the
first extensive experiment in this part
Of the state"
There is hanging in the Banner
Office Sheaf Of rice grown on the
Sligo plantation. and perhaps it is
from that same first crop. 1t is Il
good sample Of rice. and was left at
this office some years ago by Mr.. w. j..
Dawson as kind Of curiosity and
after having been exhibited at the
Parish Fair. Rice did not become a
permanent crop on the Sligo planta-
ton. and nowhere i'll the parish where
tried out Not because good crops did
not result. but because the farm labor
was not familiar with rice-growing
methods. AMI because water for flood
ing was often lacking when most need
ed In other words. the Rossier Parish
farmers did not become sufficiently in
terested to prepare well for growing
the crop.

This good old worlds daisy, a
place that ought to charm; the fell
lows surely crazy who's viewing with
alarm. The human record teaches
that doubts and fears are vain, that
coming years are peaches, the future
safe and sane. | hear the soreheads
saying that anarchy is near, that
mob law will be playing Old Ned
within a year. Because some NANCY
loafer kicks up a row or two, these
poor old grouchy gophers think an
archy's in view. Because for our
salvation, we blew in heaps of cash,
the grouches think the nation will
shortly go to smash. They always
find it easy to dig up an excuse for
forecasts dire and cheesy, for turning
teardrops loose. The crouch is never
grateful for blessings he enjoys, but
still kicks up a hateful amount of
useless noise. He thinks 'twould be a
scandal to wear hopeful smile, but
searches with a candle, to find jug
of bile. Just now we should be
cheerful and shedding glee and fun,
since we have whipped the beerful
and most blameworthy Hun. The
problems that confront us we'll
solve, I'll bet bone; and so, till
trouble hunts US, let's leave such
things alone.
