A CHAT FOR CAMPERS.

Now that the camping season is here

is not enough to follow the measurements

Rhubarb Can Be
Grown In Louisiana

Many people in Louisiana from the
North miss rhubarb and would no
doubt be willing to go to little trou-
BILE and expense to produce small
supply of this delicious vegetable for
home use.
With this in mind, G. T. Tiebout of
the extension division, Louisiana State
University offers the following sug-
gestions: Procure two-year-old Lin
naeus roots during January from
some nursery in the North and plant
them in the open on three and one
half to four foot ridges, 18 to "a
inches between the plant. The soil
should be we'll drained and rich. These
seedlings cost about eight cents de-
livered by express in hundred lots and
it is surprising the amount of stalks
fifteen to twenty-five roots will pro-
duce. The plants, of course, die in
the summer time and to renew the
plot new roots have to be procured
each winter, but if one really wants
rhubarb, this is not too great a task.
Further, some readers may have
friends or relatives in the North who
would be willing to send roots to the
South las soon as they freeze) and
take early rhubarb stalks from the
South in exchange.

the candidates for sheriff announced
for him. That was good politics. The
friends of the other were divided.
Some insisted Mr.. Thibodeaux should
do this; the others would not consent.
The candidate occupied neutral at
titude. This cost him from three to
four hundred votes. A declaration
for Parker would have eliminated the
issue of the governorship, and the
fight would then have resolved it
self upon the merits of the candi-
dates. Thibodeaux chose the thorny
path, and he had a ''heluva" of a
time keeping his feet from being
pierced by the barbed wires which
lay by the wayside. He won, and as
nothing succeeds like success" his
Stubbs supporters will say: I'VE
landed him all right" The other
fellows will say: "You did this with
the aid of at least 1000 Parker
votes"
The clerks fight was one-sided
affair. Lastrapes was for Henry
Lastrapes, Jr. All candidates for gov
ernor looked alike to him. They were
taking care of themselves-he was
going to initiate them. He never an
nounced his support for either can

farmers duty to understand these
conditions and these practices before
he undertakes to apply fertilizers to
his crop.
In the first place, he should by all
means understand the needs of the
soil he is working with. If he does
not, he is not in position to use fer
tiIizers intelligentIy. Not only do
the soils vary in their supply of
plant food but they also vary in their
needs correspondingly. A farmer may
not be able to make an analysis, but
he can observe the character of the
growth of plants in the soil and de-
rive thereform some idea as to the
needs.
| First, rapid growth, with good
color, plenty of leaf, indicates good
supply of the element nitrogen, or
that the soil contains what the farm
er often refers to as ammonia"
Second, good proportion of fruit,
such as heads of wheat, or oats with
welI-fiIled grains, or weIl-filled, large
ears of corn, indicate good supply
of the element PHOSPHORUS.
Third, bad color, fruit dropping
easily, stalk loding or falling, indi-
Gates lack of potash. Good upstand-
ing, stiff straw indicates enough pot
ash.
These three elements constitute the
| limiting ones, the ones which the soil
usually lack, one or two or all Of
them. They are the ones which are
contained in commercial fertilizers,
which are, as is commonly called,
complete"
Now let the farmer notice how
plants grow in his soil. Does he no.
tice plenty of color, leaf and stem or
stalk growth, but very noticeable
lack of seed production? 1t means
lack of phosphates in the soil, but not
any lack of nitrogen. 1t would be
folly for him to buy fertilizer con-
tanning nitrogen fer such condition,
at the present cost of nitrogen. Let
him buy only what is needed IN TINS
case, some fertilizer containing phos-
phorous largely, such as steamed bone
meal or acid phosphate.
If he has good color and good lear
and stalk, but poor grain yield and
the grain falls down or lodges easily,
there is need for both phophorous and
potash. Let him buy then only phos-
phorous and potash, any number OF
combinations of which he may find
on the market, or he may buy the
separate ingredients and mix them
himself.
If the indications are that each ele-
ment is lacking in his soil, then ne
NAV buy mixed fertilizers containing
all three elements, in all sorts of pro-
portions. If he does not know what
PROPORTIONS to buy, let him write his
experiment station for help.
The fertilizer question is large
one and needs much more elaboration
than is possible here. 1t is, however,
one thing which every farmer should
study with all earnestness.-W. n

What the Parish
Agents are Doing

]. B. Anthony, Caddo.-The agent
assisted in giving seven pruning and
spraying demonstrations during the
week. The people are very much IN
terested in the work of improving
their orcahrds; requests are coming
to the office every day for advice
about handling orchards. The agent
has ordered five spraying outfits for
farmers who have learned to look at
ter their own orchards.
W. M. Wiggoins, Winn.-The Of
flee has been swamped with requests
for assistance in spraying and prun-
ing home orchards. The work done
last season seems to be bearing good
results as shown by the number of
calls for such work, and especially by
the fact that farmers who have never
had any of this work done are asking
for information and assistance.
J. o. Montegut, Ascension.-This
week has been devoted primarily to
orchard work. Have given number
Of pruning and worming demonstra-
tions and have several consultations
in regard to purchasing and setting
out trees. The agent is having more
calls for assistance in orchard work
than he is able to fill.
J. A. Anders, Bienville.-Have
given several pruning demonstrations
this week and am having more calls
for orchard work than can possibly
fill. Many of the farmers who did
the work last year now have it well
in hand. Made arrangements this
week to ship several cars of hogs.
The farmers are feeding balanced
ration now and the hogs will be in
good, shape for shipping.
E. M. Sledge, West Carroll
spent one day in the interest of farm
ers who are applying for loans from
the Federal Farm Loan Bank. We
have strong organization here and
are doing good work in getting loans
for farmers. l delivered three or
more cars of feedstuffs at Forest and
Oak Grove on cooperative orders.
Had two purebred Hereford bulls
shipped in his week for the purpose of
grading up herds.
L. w. Wilkinson, Jefferson.-L. H.
Marrero is now grazing fifty acres of
oats with splendid flock of sheep.
Edmond FIory called on the agent
this week for assistance in laying out
a pasture, and incidentally stated
that he is grazing the oat demonstra-
ton made this fall.
R. J. Badon, st. Martin.-Very
gratifying results were had from the
use of anti-hog cholera serum in a
community where little credence has
been placed in the serum treatment.
vaccinated herd of more than one
hundred hogs for Albert Suard. This
man did not lose a hog while his
Ineighbors, who did not vaccinate, have
lost all or nearly all of theirs. This
community now believes in VAGINA
ton.
| c. P. Seab, Concordia.-Having
got rid of the cattle tick, we are now
working on the eradication of the
scrub sire. We hope to accomplish
this in twelve months. A number Of
purebred bulls have already beer
purchased.
