FRANCE GETS BIG
WIRELESS STATION
Lafayette Plant, Near Bordeaux, 70
Turned Over 70 French Govern
n1ent.
AN Assoelated Press.l


Paris, France, Aug. 1.-THE LaFay-
cite wireless station near Bordeaux,
designed and erected by American
forces during the war. has been turned
over to the French government. 1t is
the most powerful plant in existence.
with double the range of the Annap-
oils installation.
The armistice found the station half
completed, and so the completion OF
it has been slow as the urgent need of
it no longer existed 1t is to be used as
part of the comprehensive system
planned by the French service for
reaching all French colonial points by
wireless.
Eight towers of structural steel. each
within a very few feet of the Wool
worth building in height are grouped
in two rows of four to support atten-
nae that cover an aerial surface about
a mile long and a fourth of mile
wide Each tower weighs $50 tons. as
compared with weight Of 2.7o0 tons
for the Eiffel tower in Paris. which
is only fourth higher than the La
Fayettee structures.
The range of the station is more
than $4,000 miles, half way around the
earth Previously the largest French
station was that at Lyons. which
works easily with New York daily.

It Is Claimed That the Stu
alton Is Ideal For
This Purpose.
CURTISS COMPANY
FAVOR THE PLAN
Site For Operating Planes
Will Probably Be At
Fair Grounds.

The Curtiss Company have in view
the establishment of a flying station
in Covington. At the recent fair an
aeroplane demonstration was given
under great disadvantages, because
there was not suitable ground for
making landings and starting flights.
This was due to the fact that the
ground was fenced in and adjoining
ground not prepared for this pur-
pose. The situation is fine and there
is plenty of room by taking in ad-
joining land.
The Association of Commerce Is
now forming plans to have the Cur
tiss Company establish station here
and will provide the ground needed
for it. 1t is understood that the
plan has been fayorably received.
Airplanes are rapidly coming into
commercial use and will soon be used
largely in business and pleasure.
An important part Of the equipment
of a company of this kind will be its
stations, having the same relation
as the depot has to the railroad.
A station here now means that We
will soon be using the air for freight
and passenger service. No road bed
to keep UP nor right of way to OBJ
tain. just plain sailing. This
sounds funny, but it is fast coming.

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

In view Of the fact that reports
have been circulated that the sale of
soft drinks would carry a very heav!
license, in some instances stated as
high as $500, which would be pro-
hibitive to the small business man,
and in the further consideration that
such rumors are hurtful, unfounded
and malicious, the following infor
nation is deemed necessary:
All licenses will be in conformity
with the State law and could not
be otherwise. The town council is
just as solicitious of the towns af-
fairs as any citizen can. be. 1t is
just as appreciative of the fact tina:
no burdens should be placed upon
any business nor any structures in
f1icted that can be avoided. In mos
instances it is probable that the
license will not exceed $40. 1t will
depend upon the amount of business
that is done.
The office of the town secretary is
open from 8 a. m. till 4 p. m. He
will gladly furnish you information
on such matters if you will call on
him. 1t will save you from misun-
derstandings and the effect Of
malicious reports.
Respectfully,
TOWN COUNCIL OF COVINGTON,
l.. A. PERREAND,
Secretary.

Trip of Progressive Citizens
To Uneedus Pays In
Fine Results.
HOULTONS ENTERTAIN
PROGRESSIVE LEAGUE
AS Result of Conference Fe-
lix Bachemin Is Made
Farm Demonstration

In spite of the bad weather pro
gressive citizens and members OF the
Executive Board of the St. Tammany
Parish Progressive League made the
trip by auto to the Houlton farm at
Uneedus, last Saturday. 1t took
some nerve to make the trip, but
the work they ACCOMPLISHED was
a full reward Also a close view Of
the wonderful accomplishment OF the
Houltons in the production Of the
Uneedus Farms. Stock and products
stood out as a beckoning hand to
the man woh wants to farm and un-
derstands his business. Also there
was the dinner. Everything on the
table produced on the farmland a
30-pound turkey roasted brown.
Who wouldn't take a chance with
such a dinner as was served.
There were present at the meet
ing: Chas. and VIM. Houlton, Fritz
Salmen, John Poitevent, Theo. Den
dinger, Sr., E. ]. Domergue, A. j.
Johnston, E. G. Davis, T. d. Cush-
ing of the Great Southern Lumber
Company, at Bogalusa, w. E. Nor
riss and C. A. Everitt.
While there was some discussion
of the resources and opportunities
of the parish, the principal business
of the meeting was the selection OF
farm demonstrator for st. Tamman5
parish who would be of benefit and
bring results. 1t was desired to ge.
the very best man who could be Sc
cured. Felix Bachemin, Jr., was Sc
lected. The salary paid him will be
the same as he was getting in Web
ster parish, $4,000. OF this amour.
the police jury will pay $500, jus.
what it has been paying for farm
demonstration. The remainder o.
the salary will be paid by the Pro-
gressive League.
DR.. Perkins Of the State Depart
ment of Extension Work has con-
sented to release Mr.. Bachemin, and
it is learned that Mr.. Bachemin has
decided to accept the position.
Mr.. Bachemin has made quite a
reputation, having been very success
full in his work, and is in demand.
We are fortunate in getting him.
The Houltons are much interested
in the effort of the League to bring
St. Tammany to the front. 1t is
hoped that the ultimate result of the
Leagues work will be the settling
up of the cut-over lands of St. Tam
many parish.

Bids Received For Dressing
And >Graveling The
Talisheek Road.
VILLERE GETS
CONTRACT $47,986.5O
The Bids on Bogue Chitto
Swamp Bridge and
Other Matters.

Bids were received by the Good
Roads Commission last Saturday on
the Covington-Talisheek road for
dressing up and graveling this road,
which were opened at noon, and are
as follows:
Myers Construction Co., Hatties-
burg, Miss, $95,490.50.
A. P. Bob & Co., New Orleans, La. :,
s72,2s9.9O.
Harry L. villere, New Orleans,
La, $47,986.38.
These bids were submitted to
cover the shaping up, grading, bridge
building, culverts, placing the gravel
on the road and doing all the work
necessary to complete the road for
travel, with the parish furnishing the
gravel at the railroad sidings.
A. P. Bob submitted a bid propos-
ing to furnish all the gravel and do
all the work necessary to complete
the road for $131, 1,001.50. The tive
highest bids were rejected and the
bid of Mr.. Villere was retained and
taken under advisement with the
view of investigating the feasibility
VI q w "a 0LA6 LAO SOAIA 1SI W AIkAs
This investigation will be reported
upon this Saturday (to-day) at which
time the contract will be awarded or
rejected, depending on the findings
of the investigation.
1t is estimated that at the present
prices of material and freight rates
that the material for this road would
cost approximately $4,000. This
would figure an average of about
$500 per mile for the road, includ-
ing everything.
Bids on the bridges in Bogue
Chitto swamp were received Friday
and presented to the Commission on
Saturday of last week, and were re-
jected. The bids were rejected to
permit of a change in the plans and
specifications which will anticipate
new timber for both bridges and per-
NIT the old bridge on Black bayou
to remain in place as petitioned by
the citizens of that community. Bids
will be received for this work by the
Commission on Saturday, Feb. 7.
All the bridges and culverts on the
Range Line load have been compiet-
ed, but due to the rainy weather
very little progress has been made
in the way of grading.
Work on the Turnpike road has
been practically at standstill and
the contractors have filed applica
ton for sixty day extension on
their time, on the ground that there
is being so much rain that they con
not do anything on the road in the
way of grading.
