Would Be Good for B0ssler.

The Banner management Is I'M
pressed with the sound sense of the
following article. published in the
Shreveport Times of last Saturday. and
is further convinced that every para
graph is good precel't or example for
BoSSier Parish farmers. We are.
therefore. reproducing it in whole:
j. Il. Anthony. agricultural agent
for taddO Parish. states that crop con-
ditionS. aided by favorable weather
during February. are well advanced for
this time Of the year. Much corn has
been planted. but Mr. Anthony is Of the
opinion that insufficient acreage has
heen given to this crop. and urges the
farmers to plant equally as much corn
as they did last year. if not more.
THE agricultural people are leaning
heavily toward cotton this season on
account Of the high price of the staple
Mr.. Anthony thinks that the farmers
of Caddo Parish ought not to he
stampeded into planting big cotton
crop. He believes that the shortage
of labor is one serious drawback. and
again. he states that corn. velvet beans
and forage crops ought to be given
first consideration and Il sufficient
amount of grain should he planted to
| feed the farmers stock. After this
has been taken care Of the farmer may
then estimate the, number of acres that
| he can plant to cotton.
Farmers planted much corn hast
year. and as Il result many of them now
have corn to sell ut $1.75 per hlShel
after feeding their stock through the
winter.
Another crop that is receiving more
and more Consideration in Caddo Par
| iSh is the sweet potato. Better facil-
tiles for handling and preserving this
product and increased prices are the
main factors in the increased produc-
ton. 1t was formerly the rule for
every individual farnler to bank his
sweet pototoeS-a method which con-
sisted Of placing corn stalks. boards
and hay about the pile of potatoes
which protected them from the cold
and was supposed to prevent them from
spelling. but fully 80 per cent of the
potatoes were lost.
Now. potato curing houses are eS-
tabliShed throughout Caddo Parish.
which provides means for taking care
of the crop. One of these houses is
nocated Oh the Mansfield road. near
Shreveport. and has Il capacity of DO
600 bushels. and it is planned to double
this capacity by the time this years
crop is ready next fall. .-..
! Another curin: house is located ut
Ida and is capable of taking care of
10000 bushels At Vivian still another
plant is established. with capacity OF
5000 bushels. This does not take into
account the numerous private curing
houses that are scattered over the
parish. which are able to take care ot
from 300 to 800 bushels each. This
new method Of taking care Of sweet
potatoes is so successful that Sloiiage
of the crop is reduced to as low as
; per cent"
