ing the suggestion that bankers and
merchants extend no help to any one
in the way of money or supplies who
refuses to reduce his cotton acreage

acreage.
Arrangements were also made for
the checking-up of every crop In the
parish-to be reported to the Bossier
Parish Committee, the Bossier-Caddo
| Central Committee and to the State
| Committee: and the sum Of $50 was
subscribed by those present to pay ex-
penses incurred lin the proposed work.
/ Other contributions will be asked for
! to swell this fund. and the bankers ana
Wholesale men of Shreveport have Of
fered to help bear the expenses OF the
canraign work. 1t is expected That

Bre'r Wolf Defies the Dogs.

Last Saturday night about eleven
O'Clock big black and gray timber
wolf cantered to Il position opposite
the TAYLOR stable. near the Cotton Belt
depot. sat down, pointed his nose to-
ward high heaven and issued a note Of
defiance to all the dogs in Benton in Il
howl that is now well known to both
dogs and men in these parts. The same
dogs have been running the same wolf
without any other results than mutual
pleasure in the race for more than
year. Any time the spirit moves Il
hunter to have a chase the fresh trail
of the wolf can he found III il few min
uteS. close within the business or resi-
dence districts. 1t is a bold devil. this
wolf is: and he has Il mate just as
cunning, bold and swift of foot.
Mr. w. c. Ivey's hounds We're not far
off when the wolf sounded his chal-
lenge Saturday night and he soon led
them far and away over the old, old
fields Of hootleSS pursuit, but 1t was Il
good run The men had been rather
fed up on wolf hunting lately and did
not Join in: so the dogs and the wolf
had it all to themselves. Bre'r wolf
led the pack as far away from Mr.. J. F..
Rurts residence and pasture as he
could without seeming to have that III
mind. His strategy was good. for nc
dog was on guard there when the mate
Of the strategiSt sneaked along to the
windward of the land of sheep in the
pasture. drew near and SpranS out ol
| the darkness upon Il lamb. The she
wolf killed four lambs and went away
as she had come.
The dogs had Il good run, with the
| usual reSult-very tired next day.
