is impossible to raise crops with
any degree of certainty. This be-
ing the case steps has been taken
to organize a drainage district and
as soon as they can get things In

there will be no impediments and
that all who receive the benefits

! New Iberia had a delegation
of citizens here on Thursday from
Lafayette in the persons of Messrs.
F. M. Bacque, Parish iDemonstra-

generally in that parish as the
Calf Club Booster, and last, but
not least, the man "behind the

of one of Lafayette's financial in
situations who is the booster
of their Southwest Louisiana Fair
Association. These gentlemen az.
peared before our Police Jury on
Thursday and asked that Iberia
fall in line with the other progress
sive parishes and make donation
of $4,000, as it's pro rata towards
the premium list to be given prize
winners at the Fair on October
9th, 10th, 18th and 18th, 1919.
Their arguments for an Associa-
ton in Southwest Louisiana was
so convincing and made such an
impression on the members of the
Jury that they made a donation
without any hesitation, 1t is pro-
posed to get donations from
Acadia, vermiliqn, st. Landry, St.
Martin and ultimately to make
the Southwest Louisiana Fair the
equal of that at Shreveport. This
is a splendid move for the South
western parishes and it is proposed
to get the best articles displayed
in each Parish Fair, after they
are exhibited at home and place.

Lafayette which VII be held after
the other exhibitions. This will
in no way interfere with the pro
posed Fair we intend to have dur
ing 1920, in fact it will stimulate
us to make our exhibition such
that the very same people who
visit Lafayette to see what they
have on display will also come TO
New Iberia to see what we have
to show.

route No. 3 to Jefferson's Island
/ or for the establishment Of new
route as Uncle Sam deems best
In the settlement around the JET
ferson Island neighborhood, there
are something like seventy five
families and they are entitled t.
a free delivery service if we
build roads that can be reached
by the carriers. We hope that
the request Of these people will be
granted and that the delivery will
be made through the New Iberia
postal officials. Right here we
wish to call the attention of our
New iberia merchants to the fact
that the business men Of Abbeville
arc attracting q great deal OF
trade from people who live in Ibe-
ria Parish and it is time for them
to go after business in that Vi
cinity. OF course, we admit that
these people began to trade in our
sister parish because Of the inn
passable bog holes on the Jeffer-
son road leading into New Iberia.
Now that we will very soon have
model gravel roads this trade can
be brought back to New iberia if
we only show them that we want
their business. On the other
hand we must not trust absolutely
to the good roads bringing this
trade here unless systematic eff
fort is made to turn the drift this
way again. The merchants of Alb
beville are wide-awake themselves
and we must offer special induce
ments to get business from that
territory if we want to profit from
good roads.

STRONG SENTIMENT FOR
BOTH CANALS.

ment on the part Of the citizens
of New Iberia this week in fayo:
of steps being taken to vote
special taxes for the completion
of the New Iberia Southern
Canal to the sea and also the
building of the Bayou Boutte
canal which will enable New lbe.
ria to make bids for the establish
ment here of hard wood factories
moss and collar making indus
tries, to say nothing of the fish
market that will be established In
this City. There are large num-
her of our people who are en-
thusiastic advocates Of the route
to the sea, while there is another
element that think the Bayou
Boutte canal which would enable
us to get trade from Bayou Chene
and the lakes in that neighborhood
by far the best proposition. Com
bining both movements, a tax
could easily be put over that will
enable us to finish the one into a
commercial canal and build the
other at the same time. AS stated
in our last issue it is only a ques-
ton Of few months before it will
be necessary to vote general tax
in the Parish to build all Of the
lateral roads which will lead to
the main roads soon to be graveled.
The vast amount of money that
would have to be paid out to the
railroads to haul gravel here
would enable us to cut these,
waterways and then we could Sc
cure all of the clam shell neces-
sary to build the finest roads IN
the United States. Take for in-l
stance the incomplete Jeanerette-
New iberia roadway as a criterion !
something like $4,000 has been
paid into the Golfers Of the railroad
company for transportation and
we are only two-thirds through.
If we are in earnest and hope to
push New Iberia forward, let's
shake the dust from our feet and
eet busy with these canals. |
How much will be- expended
10 get gravel for the other
roads in the Parish Of Iberia. On
the basis we are now paying for
freight, it will take between one
and seventy-five thon-
sand dollars for freight alone.
These are serious matters and vel
have reasons to believe our citi-
Eens are too far sighted and keen
not to see the reasonable Of our
contention. It remains for some
one to take the lead in these
for the two canals.
Time lost is money lost and nowI,,
