CO-operative Societies

A WARNING has been issued by
Director Herschel Jones, of the
New York office of the State Divi-
sion of Foods and Markets., to the
effect that the public should look into
cooperative schemes more carefully
before joining them. The co5pera-
tive idea has such an appeal in
these days of high prices that some
unscrupulous persons have used it
as bait to establish organizations
for private gain.
Under the laws of the state no
cooperative can make profits for
any one but the consuming or
producing members. The funda-
mentals of cooperative move
ment of any kind are "one man
one vote,' regardless of the amount /
ST stock held. coI1;oo Of ,,,o,,,J

Pursuing the Vifarnine

Your interesting page on vege-
table oils, oleomargarines and nut
buffers prompts me to ask you
these questions: % Does absolute
butter fat, not cream but the fat
itself, contain vitamines? (2) Does
skim milk contain vitamines? CD
VIII YOU name brand of nut mar
garine which contains butter fat?
+. B., New York City.
No one pretends to have tracked
the vitamine to his various lairs
and discovered all his habits. The
information on this subject changes
from month to month almost. But
we can say that butter fat is con-
sidered the typical, first and fore
most source Of Fat Soluble A. the
growth promoting vitamine. That
doesn't mean that it is found only
there, even in the case of milk. On
the contrary, about half of this vita
NINE value seems to be left in the
skim milk, besides the presence of
Nltamine No. ?, the Waters Soluble
3 (anti-neurotic vitamine, good for
the nerves..
We do not know Of any nut but
ters that contain butter fat; indeed
these products pride themselves on
containing no animal fats and fre-
quently state the fact on the label.
However, many Of them, we under
stand, are churned in skim milk and
if so W Suld contain some vitamines
from this source.

Suggestions and Recipes

No potatoes are used in the three
daily menus and but very little
sugar, cereals taking the place Of
the former and small quantities Of
maple sugar, syrup and molasses
that of the latter. Currant jelly is
the sWeetening agent used in Fri
days dessert, and the fig sandwiches
made With graham bread and
served with iced coffee will require
no sugar nave the natural sweetness
Of the dried fruit.
Cheese and Hominy Fritters
Beat one pint Of cooked hominy
until free from Jumps and add one
we'll beaten egg, a scant teaspoonful
of salt, half teaspoonful Of pap
rika, one small cupful of grated

PORK RAIsERs ATTENTION.

For a number Of wears Mr.. Luke
L. Bertrand has been interesting
himself in endeavoring to get the
farmers to raise more pork, and
on a couple of occasions sue
ceeded in making up a carload of
hogs which he shipped to the mar
ket, realizing a nice sum for the
owners. When the Chamber of
Commerce was organized, Mr..
Bertrand was made the chairman
of the Agricultural Committee be
cause of the great interest he has
shown in promoting the welfare Of
the farmers of this vicinity, and
he is busily engged now getting
the names of farmers who have
hogs to put upon the market. 1t
is his intention to round up a full
carload in a week or so and make
another shipment. This will give
our farmers who have one or a
dozen an opportunity to realize
now upon their porkers. Those
who have hogs they wish to ship
are requested to state the num-
Der and leave the list with him or
with DR.. J. A. Goodwin. chairman
of the Live Stock Committee Of
the Chamber of Commerce. In
connection with the other work
undertaken by that civic body
since its organization, they will
endeavor to induce orr farmers to
raise porkers for the market. To
those who are inclined to go into
that line of business in connection
with agriculture they can
now always look to the Chamber
of Commerce assisting them when
they are ready to realize upon
their investment.

is called the people will give the
movement their unqualified en-
dorsement.
Sufficient funds must be voted
to drain the roads and to main
tain them as long as the tax is in
force. This is going to require a
very heavy bond issue, if we
hope to have roads that will be
fit to travel at all seasons Of the
year. 1t is utterly useless to vote
special taxes to build highways
unless there is annually a heavy
sinking fund to maintain them,
and by this time a majority Of our
citizens have realized this fact.
There is no better time than
now to put over a special road tax
and the members of the Chamber
of Commerce and a number OF
citizens residing in the country
districts will bend every effort to
see that they are voted. Within
the past three months we are hav-
ing an influx Of immigration
from Acadia and other Western
parishes and every one Of these
newcomers has located in this
Parish because they were assured
that these highways will be con-
structed, in the very near future.
With good highways we will then
be in position to make a bid for
newcomers and our land will soon
double in value because Of the I'M
precedented demand. We have
the most fertile lands in the
world. it only remains for us to
provide highways and good drain
age so that all of them will be-
accessible.

POLITICAL MEETINGS ON
MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

Next Monday afternoon at l 80
0 clock, New Iberia will be visited
by lion. John NJ. Parker, Hon.
HeWett Bouanchaud and Hon.
John NJ. OvertOn, all Of whom are
billed to deliver addresses at the
Elks Theatre, so as to enlighten
the citizens Of the Parish on the
issues of the campaign. The
meeting promises to be one Of the
largest in the history of the Par
ish. The meeting is held here
more to get the voters out on
election day, January goth.
The sentiment in this Parish,
like, the entire Third District Of
Louisiana will roll up a ninety
per cent vote for Parker, and III
dications point yerv strongly to
him being the next Governor of
the State. Almost every day
letters are received from all sec
tons of the country showing to
what extent the Parker senti-
ment predominates in the State,
and we can see nothing but a vie
tory for the reformers when the
votes are counted.
The friends of Colonel Stubbs
have also arranged a mass meet
mo here the following evening at
7 30 O'Clock at the Elk Theatre.
With Mr.. Stubbs will be Hon.
Philip Gilbert, a candidate for
ant-Governor. Hon. James
O'Conner and Hon. Andrew La
fargue Of New Orleans. Both
meetings will be well attended.

PAVING UNDER FULL

Company have made wonderful

West Main Street. On Tuesday
they commenced pouring in the
concrete which will be five inches
thick, after which two inches of
bithuletic will be spread, making
that thoroughfare one of the best
Of any small city in the State
Since this work was begun we
have had so many rainy days that
for a long time the contractors
felt very much discouraged. Now
the work is moving along very
rapidly.
Messrs. Richie Bros. who have
the contract for the brick paving
from the Southern Pacific Depot
to the Post Office are also now
doing their share to finish
the work within the allotted
time. All of the cement curbings
on Railroad Avenue have been
finished and the grading is NOV
ing along about as rapidly as
could be expected under the civ
cumstances. In a few days more
If is more than probable skilled
men will be busy putting the vitri-
fed brick in place and then our
citizens will be in position to see
what an elegant roadway we viii
have on our principal thorough
fare.
This civic improvement is one
of the best investments our peo-
pie could make and ere the end Of
1920 every street in New Iberia
will be fit to travel and it will be a
lasting advertisement Of the prog
ress Of our citizenship.

WHIT MARTIN rs OUT FOR

Congressman Whit Martin of

Wednesday the publication Of cor
respondence in which he annOun-
ces his support of John NJ Parker
for governor. E. S. Broussard of
New Iberia gave out the news in
the Third and Congressman Mar
tin telegraphed his approval from
Washington.
Rumors have been circulated
since Judge Martin paid his flying
visit to the Third that he had gone
over to the Stubs camp.
He is now and always has been
for John M. Parker!' is the way
indignant Third District men met
the rumor and clinched the issue
by producing the following let
ters:
New Iberia, Dec. 2, 1919.
Judge Whit Martin, Washington,
D. c.:
Dear Judge-Many Of your
friends have acquired Of me your
attitude with reference to the gu
bernatorial campaign. Feeling
that you would favor the election
of Mr.. Parker, I have expressed
my opinion that you would vote
for him but l am not willing to
so report your position without
knowing what it is, because to do
so might be unfair to you. May
/ not, then, ask you what your at
titude is and whether you have
any objection to making the same
known? With best regards,
Your friend,
E. S. BROUSARD.
To this letter the following re-
ply was received:
Washington, Dec. 5, 1919.
Hon. f.. S. Broussard, New iberia.
Ny dear Edwin am just in
receipt of your favor of the 2rd
inst. in which you inquire as to
my attitude with reference to the
present gubernatorial campaign
end whether or not / have any OBJ
lection to letting MY friends
know for whom I will vote in the
coming election. You are correct
in your opinion that | will cast
my vote for Mr.. Parker. / have
no objection to your making my
position known &c anyone inter
ested. With best wishes, / beg to
remain,

MEETING OF THE CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE NEXT
TUESDAY.

Next Tuesday night the citizens
of New Iberia, and especially
those who have become members
Of the Chamber Of Commerce are
requested and urged to be present
to meet with the Manager-Sec-
rotary, Mr.. Frank Noel of HOus-
ton. Mr.. Noel arrived here on
Tuesday last to assume his duties
and it BehoOves all Of the citizens
of this municipality to get ac-
quainted with him and lend him
the proper encouragement in the
work he is about to undertake.
Before his departure from HouS-
ton, the gentleman was presented
with an elegant gOld-handle UNI
brella by the members Of the
Chamber Of Commerce Of Hous-
ton, where his services were ap-
preciated. We believe the New
Iberia Chamber of Commerce
have made no mistake in the Sc
lection of Mr.. Noel, and it now
devolyes upon the business men
to back up his efforts and push
New Iberia forward. In unity
there is strength, and a great deal
is going to be accomplished in
1920 through the efforts Of this
Association.
So far, since the organization
Of our Chamber Of Commerce
movements have been launched
for the completion Of the canal
to the sea, the building of a
waterway to Lake Fausse Pointe,
and last, but not least. the voting
of a Parish-wide tax to build model
gravel and shell roads in all parts
Of the Parish. This in reality will
be one Of the most beneficial i'm
provements ever undertaken for
the general welfare of the prop
ertv holders Of the Parish, as well
as the citizens Of New iberia, and
it will devolye upon the members
of the Chamber of Commerce to
bring the matter to an early reali-
cation. Without good highways
I'm every nook and corner of the
Parish, we can never hope to de-
velop our agricultural resources
as they would be were conditions
otherwise. There is already
crystaIized strong sentiment for
a Parish-wide tax, but it is essen
tial that a real educational cam
paign be inaugurated in every
Ward. so that when the election

CHRISTMAS TREE AT THE

Our Christmas tree was quite a
success and the crowd was larger
than we expected. We were net
exactly prepared for such a large
one, but we tried our best to,
please everybody. the big folks as
well as the little folks, and we
sincerely hope that all were SAL
isfied. We thank the ladies who
were so kind in helping us to
make our entertainment such a
success, and also thank the mer-
chants and all those who gave
donations for the tree. We COM
pliment the crowd for being so,
patient while waiting for Santa
to distribute the toys for it took
him quite while to get every
body served. We realized from
this entertainment $141.O0. Mt.
Carmel Convent is in debt and we-
will soon have a heavy improve
ment tax to pay for paved streets
and side walks, and we friends of
Mt. Carmel Convent will have to
get together and help make this,
burden lighter. We arr trying
to organize a social club to meet
once a month and play Five Hun
dred. Fees will be % cents at
every entertainment. Ladies',
come to our, meetings on Wednes-
