ly germs of Texas-fever.
Realizing the Importance Of
the great work Of discriminating
this noxious post, the United
States Government and the
State of Louisiana have planned
an active and comprehensive
campaign of Tick Eradication for
1919. The State and ederal laws
and regulations under which the
work will be conducted are mod
ern and up-to-date in every res
pect, being based on years of ex-
perience in all of the Southern
States. The result of their ap-
plication and observance will be
an assured success. Like all
laws. however, they are depend
ent upon the support and coop
GRAFTON of the citizens for their
effectiveness. The Government
and State Officials will render
all the assistance and encourage
ment in their power, but the sue
cess of the work will rest with
the Individual cattle owner.
G7 theory of Tick Fradioatio1
is verv simple; all that is neces-
oarv for it's accomplishment is
to dip 100 per cent of the cattle
in an arsenical solution of stand
ard strength, every IA days
throughout an entire season.
The one difficulty which is en-
countered in actual practice is to
get that 100 per cent of cattle
to the vat, and it is in this par
ticular that the cattle owner can
assure the success of the work.
There are few stockmen, who
for various motives are opposed
to Tick Eradication and many
and varied are the objections
which they have put forth. If
these men were as ingenious in
devising methods for destroying
the tick, as thief are in inventing
arguments for not doing so, the
dafs of the cattle tick would be
few indeed.

, Following is a letter from Dr..
n. N. Guilfoyle, parish veterin-
airy Inspector, sent out to all
farmers and stock breeders in
/ st. Mary. DR.. Guilfoyle seeks to
encourage food and meat pro-
tduction by eliminating the cat
tie tick.
Franklin, La, Feb. 10, 1919.
. Dear Sir:
Probably one of the most i'm
portant of the many serious
problems of reconstruction and
world peace, with which we are
today confronted, is the problem
of adequate and economical food
production. or many years it
has been recognized that food
consumption has been no world
war with it's serious destruction
of actual and potential food sup
plies we would sooner or later
have had to face conditions SIM
liar to those which are before US
today
The United States has always
produced a surplus Of wheat,
corn and other grains and will
probably continue to do so for
many years to come. With re-
gard to our meat supply, how
ever, we are not so fortunate.
Prior to 1912 our meat produc-
ton was in excsess of consump-
ton and the surplus was ex-
ported to Europe. Since that
date our meat exports have
dropped to zero and we have i'm
ported millions of pounds of beef
from the Argentine, Mexico,
Australia and other foreign
countries.
AS these facts indicate, the
necessity for increasing our beef
production is paramount, and
gives additional significance to
Louisiana's Tick Eradication
Campaign for 1919. The Won
'nrfrllv salubrious climate Of
Louisiana which makes possible
y grazing season Of practically IL
months in the year, and the high
nutrient value of her rich native
grasses and fodder. places Louis
lana in the van as a potential
beef raising State. The one OBJ
stacle to the raising of large
herds of fine beef cattle in Lou
isiana is the cattle tick-that
Icontemptible blood-sucking par
|asite which devitalizes and
wrecks the poor animals which
it does not kill outright by in.
|jecting into their blood the dead.

A COOPERATIVE
HOTEL PROJECT

| There are a number of towns in
Louisiana that could we'll afford to
| follow the example of an idaho town
-Ottumwa-and build themselves
hotels on a cooperative basis or plan
The citizens of Ottumwa, realizing
the need which long prevailed in their
town for such an enterprise, got to-
gether and accomplished very flat
terlng result.
They have just finished building a
new hotel iii the center Of the city
with the S33O,O00 which they collected
for that purpose, and Ottumwa is a
place of only $4,000. Successful hotel
building by committees o, CONNER,
citl organization is new idea in COM
lnunity development. The hotel was
opened to the public late in 1917. l.
was leased for term of twenty five
years at a rental that guarantees the
two classes of bond-holders 6 per cent
and IL per cent and the stockhold
ers approximately 5 per cent interest,
which is considered fair return for
the men and the women who invested
and were not looking entirely for fl
nancial profit
Incidently the Ottumwa people,
through their committees got much
more than new hotel for their $780,
GOO. A collection of nondescript
buildings that occupied one of the
main blocks in the city were torn
down and in Their place was raised
this modern hotel-a Symmetrical
structure that would do credit to any
business block
The hotel was built by the citizens
after a regular old-fashioned town
meeting considered the subject. Not
one in ten thought Ottumwa could
or would do it. Then at the right
moment, that always seems to come
! when a crowd of men are gathered to-
gether, falling things over, one of the
business men made the announcement
that his firm would take $4,000 worth
of hotel stock if four other firms
would agree to do the same. That
was the push that put the hotel prop
osition over the top.
When the soliciting committee had
raised $4,000 and it seemed that
everybody in Otumwa had subscribed
every cent that everybody expected
him to. Another business man made
the announcement that there were
twenty-five men in Ottumwa who
would agree to stay away from theii
| offices for three days and attempt tc
raise money for the hotel. As mat
ter of fact, thirty men responded
The goal was set for S125,OOO. Al
four o'clock on the afternoon of the
third day the subscriptions amounted
to $l25,0OO. The chairman allowed
the committee to finish out the day
however, and by night all the sub
scriptions had run up to S154,OOO. II
all, 800 Ottumkans had subscribed to
wards the project. The average sub
scription was $500. The result is ;
success as hotel and also a success
in cooperative action.

THREATENS AN
ECONOMIC BOYCOTT
President Wilson Has Rejected Italian
Proposal on Fiume-American
Forces Taking Hand.

PARIS, Sept 26-American forces
have taken a hand in the swiftly moving
events along the eastern shore of the
Adriatic, according to advices from Cop
enhsgen. United States destroyers ap-
pearing off the port of Trau when Ital-
ian soldiers attempted to force their way
into the town brought the attack to a
sudden stop, the Italians retreating
hastily, it is said
The crown council of Italy met yester
day under the presidency of King Vic
tor Emmanuel The belief is expressed
that the council had before it a reply
from President Wilson to the Italian
proposals intended to settle the problem
of the disposition of Fiume. Advices
from Rome do not indicate the nature of
the reply, but in Italian circles here it
is said that the proposals were rejected
by President Wilson, who also threatened
an economic boycott if Italy persisted
in holding Fiume in defiance of the al.
lied powers.

day morning.
Although outwardly the President
had appeared to be standing well the
hard ordeal of more than three weeks ;

known today, that for some days he
has suffered of headaches. He also
has been fatigued by the confinement
on his special train interrupted only
by brief stops which have been spent
mostly in riding through crowds and
speaking to audiences.
He has made nearly 40 speeches since
he left Washington on Sept. 3 and has
spent all but about half dozen nights
on the train. Five addresses remained
on his uncompleted schedule.
just before the train left Wichita at

DRIVE FOR $3.50
FOR CARRY-ON FUND
Miss Edith M. Stolte Chairman of
Drive to Raise That Amount in
Brattleboro for Y. w. c.. A.

Brattleboro has been asked to raise
$3.50 as it's share of Vermont s quota
of $500 for the Y. w. C. A. "earry-
on fund.- of $1,0O0,000, campaign for
which was conducted during the winter
in other states. 1t was thought advis-
able at that time to postpone the cam
paign in Vermont in order to give the
newly established town and country
work time to make evident its worth
Miss Edith NJ. Stolte has been appoint
ed chairman of the drive to secure
funds here.
None of the money raised in the
United War Work campaign could be
used for anything but war work and
all the money actually paid in was
needed for that work. After the armis-
tice was signed the national board of
the Y W. C. A found that they had in
Cured an Indebtedness, as all effort to
raise money in its own behalf had been
intermitted in order that all energy
might be used in securing war funds,
and because of the war work the asso-
citation was receiving requests from all
sides to establish new Y w. G. A.
centers.
A portion of the carry-on fund will
be used to meet the existing indebted
ness; $2500o0 will form an opportunity
fund to be used for loans to needy To-
cal associations, for work in Hawaii, to
correct the terrible conditions in the
movie settlements in California, for
work on the Mexican border, which is
rivaling Ellis Island as a port of i'm
migration and the 1919 budget for reg
ular work.
Town and county work recently was
opened up in Vermont with Miss Mar
ion Gray of Rutland as secretary Miss
Gray has extensive plans for the future
and already has held conferences OF
the older girls and a summer camp for
lonely girls from isolated towns. A
part of the money raised in the cam.
paign in Vermont, which will close Oct
Is, will be used to defray the expenses
of that camp.
Miss Stolte is arranging plan fol
securing the quota for Brattleboro, but
it is not expected that house to- house
canvass will be made, as that is moi
deemed necessary. Anyone. however
who is interested in the work of the Y
w. c. A. and who wishes to contribute
| to the carryon fund without being soil
cited. is requested to make a remittanc,
/ to Miss Stolte.

GOMPERS DEFINES.
STEEL STRIKE ISSUE
Workers Want to Have Voice in Work
ing Conditions Through Union
Representation.
WASHINGTON. Sent. 26.

WASHINGTON, Sept % The
right of the employees to have some
voice in determining the conditions
under which they work is the para
mount issue in the strike of the steel
workers, Samuel Gompers told the
senate investigating committee today.
Asked by Chairman Kenyon to define
the issues in the controversy he said
@ the right to be heard is what the
steel workers are asking above all else
tho right to speak with their en-
ployers through their own representa-
tives, to have some voice in determin-
ing conditions under which they work.
"The right of workers to association
has been denied-denied with all
the power and influence wealth of the
steel corporation-denied by brutal
and unwarranted idle means
cit has been said that most of the
men taking part in this strike are of
foreign birth and not naturalized cit
izens. That may be and no doubt is
true. The largest proportion of steel
corporation employees are of foreign
birth, but these men are brought here
by the companies.
There was for years systematic
effort to bring in these gangs from
Europe. There was a systematic eff
| ford to eliminate Americans. They
have harvest to reap now
| After hearing Gompers the senate
committee abandoned its plans to exam
inc tomorrow William z. Foster, sec
| retarv of the steel workers committee
who has been attacked in the house o
representatives as a radical and as al
/ T. w. w.
Chairman Kenyon announced tha
| the inquiry would not be resumed unit
| next Wednesday when Judge Elbert II
| Gary, chairman of the board of tn
| directors of the United States Stee
corporation will be heard. He gave N
reason for not hearing Foster tomorrow
/ but other members of the committe
/ said that Foster would be called bt
fore the committee at some future tim,
4 Foster was defended before the con
mittee by Gompers, who said the III
ion committee secretary had change
the radical views he held some tim
ago and that had he not done SO til
witness would not have consented
serve with him in the steel strike. Con
pers recited in detail the causes leat

REFUSES TO AREITRATE.
E. II. Gary Says Question of Moral
Principle Cannot Be Compromised.

NEW YORK, Sept 26-After being
shown an Associated Press despatch
quoting John Fitzpatrick, director of
the steel strike, as saying the walk
out would end Immediately if the
United States Steel Corporation
would arbitrate differences, Ebert H.
Gary, directing head of the corpora
tion, declared in a statement last
night, speaking for himself, that he be-
lievcd the board of directors .ecannot
negotiate or confer with Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick or his associates.
"The board of directors of the
United States Steel corporation are
the representatives Of nearly 100000
stockholders, including from 10000 to
20. 600 employees" said the statement
Eve are their servants and are Sc
lected to represent and protect their in
terests and also the interests of all oul
250,000 employees, the majority of whom
l think are not members of labor
unions.
