LIGHT VOTE CAST
 IN CITY PRIMARY

At 2 o'clock this afternoon, total of 265 votes, slightly more than one half the total vote cast in 1918, had been registered in the three wards of the city, where the Democratic munic- ipal primary is being held The First ward led with 104 votes, the Second lad SO and the Third 62. In the 1918 primary, total vote of 479 votes was cast, of which 68 were by women, a class of vote which will be somewhat reduced this year by the ruling requiring 1918 poll tax receipt to determine eligibility. At 3 o'clock the afternoon of the 1918 primary, 300 votes had been cast
 A heavier vote is expected to be boiled before the close of the polls at 6 o'clock, making it possible that the total will equal or exceed that of 1918. Very little campaigning in behalf of any of the candidates was evident to- day, the balloting proceeding in an orderly manner.
 Officials who are serving at the three wards voting places are as follows, some changes having been required from the list as announced by the cen tral committees
 First ward-Wm. J. Drummer, Ila Wheat and 0. 0. Florence, judges George Harton and R. C. Dickerson, clerks, and w. A. Loveless, sheriff. Second ward-Ingram Hartje, J. NJ. Adams and W. s. Cazort, judges George A. Freeman and M. D. Vance, clerks, and L. E. Atkeison, sheriff Third ward-M. r. Moore, W. R. Hairston and J. NJ. Rhoton, judges J. W. Rhea and J. NJ. Hill clerks, and ". D.

DON'T DEsPIsE OUR
E-CROWN PRODUCTS

In devising ways and means
to combat old man H. c. L.,
housewives should give first
consideration to, the use of
homegrown foods, with which
Louisiana is blessed with an
abundance, both in quantity
and quality. Some of these
foods, so common with Us as
to be sometimes overlooked,
are considered delicacies by
people living in parts Of the
country where such foods can
not be grown. The sweet po-
tato is in this class,
Here is IL vegetable of COM
paratively high food value and
palatability that is grown in
abundance in all parts of Lou
isiana. Modern curing methods
make it possible to preserve
the sweet potato the year
round. If this vegetable were
grown in some remote section
of the country and its many
excellent qualities advertised
to us we would not hesitate to
pay as much per peck as we
are called to pay per bushel
here at home. Truly, distance
lends enchantment.
One of the chief virtues of
the sweet potato not commonly
appreciated is that it can be
prepared in so many different
ways for the table. Extension
Circular No. IL, recently is
sued by the State University
extension division, gives TWEEN
ty-odd sweet potato recipes,
ranging all the way from the
old-fa, toned sweet potato pud
ding to the more modern sweet
