Early Vaccination Urged Against
Probable Outbreak Of Charlton.

Early Vaccination Urged Against
Probable Outbreak Of Charlton.
Due to the prevalence of char
bon infection in various sections
of the State last SUMMER, the
Louisiana State Live Stock SAM
tary Board earnestly advises ear

this season on the part of the
live stock owners in order to an

of this disease and for the pur-
pose of having their stock pro-
.tected in ample time before the
advent of warm weather, which
is the Charlton season.
Past experience has demon

mated against Charlton early in
the spring, so as to allow a suffi-

Large Cowpea Crop Brings Dows
Prices.


Prices.
The production of cowpeas in
1920 exceeded that of 1919 by
more than five million bushels,
with the result that there are
numerous offerings of cowpeas
at So a bushel, with a still lower
price in prospect. according to
"A. G. Hamilton, marketing
specialist Of the State University
Extension Division, who has de-
voted some time to an investiga-
ton of the cowpea situation.
This investigation showed that
the increased production of cow
peas in Mississippi for 1920 was
more than two million bushels in
excess of that of 1919, while in
Alabama and North Carolina the
1920 crop exceeded that of the
previous year by more than a
million bushels in each state.
Increases also were noted in
South Carolina, Tennessee, Ar
kansas and Louisiana, the latter
state producing SO, 80 more BUSH
els of cowpeas in 1920 than in
1919. Only Virginia, Georgia,
Missouri and Texas showed de-
creasesin the production of cow
peas, while the production in
Kentucky was the same the last
two years. The total net in
crease of 1920 over 1919 amount
ed to 5. 431. 400 bushels.
Farmers who expect to plant
this year, and thisshould
include practically every one,
are invited to write A. G. HamiI-
ton, marketing specialist, Uni

Grant Parish Endorses Memphis Cot
ton Reduction Plan.

A mass meeting was held at
the court house in Colfax last
Saturday. Jan. 20, at II O'Clock,
attended by large cotton plant
ers of the parish, and a great
many of the smaller farmers,
merchants and bankers. Mr.. A.
A. Dean was elected chairman
and he called on Mr.. j. w. Dun
can to explain the object of the
meeting. after which general
discussion followed. 1t develop
ed that Grant parish is a unit in
adopting the Memphis plan of
reduction in cotton acreage, and
every one present pledged him
self to conform to the plan adopt
ed by the Louisiana Bankers As
ISOLATION and will not permit
more than one-third Of the culti-
vable lands planted to cotton for
the year 1921. In fact it was
brought out at this meeting that
a great many of our smaller
farmers, especially in the hill
section, who have been in the
habitsof planting more or less
cotton, will not plant any this
year. 1t is not likely that there
will be so per cent Of the culti-
waited acreage planted in cotton
this year, that was planted inl
1920.

Cravath's home runs were spread over more years, beginning in 1912 and ending in 1920, while Ruth began to amass his total Tn 1915 and was handicapped during the first three years when he pitched.
 Two American League batting records were equalled yesterday. One mark-five home runs in. one game-was duplicated in the St. Louis-Cleveland contest, the Indi- ans getting three and the Browns two. Graney, of Cleveland, hit two and Elmer Smith one. The other two were batted by Kenneth Williams, of St. Louis, and, coupled with his two homers of Friday, en- abled him to equal Ruth's record of four in three consecutive games.
