CONDITIONS ARE TO
IMPROVE STEADILY

w. B. Swift, purchasing agent Of
the International Harvester Co., who
knows the pulse of business better
than many who make study Of that
line, believes that soon the farmers
will realize the needs of the country
and that prosperity depends to a
large extent upon them, and that
business will improve.
1t will be slow, according to Mr.
Swift, but it has already started and
henceforth the Improvement Will be
steady.
Mr.. Swift was accompanied on his
trip here by Alexander Legge, vice
president and general manager Of the
International Harvester Co.; H. F.
Perkins, another prominent official
of that company; John S. Wood,
manager of the Western plant, and
R. G.. Brooks.
1t was the first visit to Bogalusa
of the later named gentlemen and,
according to Mr. Swift, they were
greatly impressed with the Magic
City. The thing that impressed them
most was the great development OF
the big industries here in so short a
time, the improvements to be found
and the great possibilities Of the fu-
ture.
Mr.. Swift stated that several of
the International Harvester plants
were running with reduced forces
and their, production was about 30
per cent of normal.

N. Y. SUN SAYS THIS
is THE IDEAL TOWN

sThis city has been inspected by
members of the BroOklyns and they
are not slow to proclaim it an ideal
town in which TO get into condition
for a hard pennant struggle. What
the Brooklyns discovered after being
here only short while yesterday was
found to be true by Manager Lee
Foil and the st. Louis Browns three
weeks ago. The Mound City team
has been here that long and they have
not missed a practice. There has
been no rain to interrupt Manager
Fohl's training plans and the athletes
are rounding into condition for the
American League race. At the pres
ent time they are further advanced
than the Brooklyns, and the faca was
proven yesterday afternoon when the
teams met in the first game of their
exhibition series. The American
Leaguers soundly tTounced Robbie's
champions by the one-sided score of
II to 8. Bogalusa climate and the en-
vironments which exist here make the
town an ideal one in which to train
ball players. The town is one Of the
newest in the country, the hotels
were constructed recently and most
of the dwellings give one the impress
sion that they have not long been
built. Fourteen years ago there was
no Bogalusa. Then, where this spot
less and thriving little town now has
a place on the map, there was moth
ing but a great forest and pine trees.
On the outskirts of the forest there
was built in 1908 a small sawmill and
gradually the tall and stately pines
were cut down. Time passed and
with it went thousands of trees and
soon additions were added to the orig
inal wood-cutting establishment. As
the sawmill prospered, hundreds Of
folks from nearby towns flocked here
and were employed in the thriving
lumber camp and made this town
their home.
''That was the beginning Of Boga-
lusa, and now it has population Of
about $4,000 and pretty one-family
bungalows are scattered for miles
around. In the center Of the town is
the developed saWmill, now called the
Great Southern Lumber Company,
and it is the largest Of its kind in this
country, if not in the world. About
one mile from the farge sawmin is
the Pine Tree Inn, modern otel at
which the Browns and Brooklyns are
quartered. The surroundings are
real countrified and places which at
tract players who are training in
commercial cities are not to be found
here. However, the athletes are not
at a loss for recreation. There are
two movie houses, and in the Pine
Tree Inn may be found billiard ia
bles. Bobby Quinn, business man
ager of the st. Louis Browns, dis
covered the towns value as train
ing camp and he has picked what will
be the teams spring quarters for
many seasons. New York Sun.

Cattle Prefer Front
Galleries to Streets

]. a. Spekenhier's assertion that
the cattle Of Bogalusa would enter
your house and go to sleep in your
bed, if possible, almost came true
Friday night when one Of the impu-
dent bovines of the Pleasant Hill sec
ton entered the yard of L. A. Afford
on Avenue G, climbed the front steps
and after attempting to enter the
door, contented herself with lying
on the porch and beginning the even
ing task of chewing her cud.
Mrs. Afford, alone in the house
with her baby, did not know who was
attempting to enter her home, and
cried out for her husband, who is pro-
prietor Of a barber shop on the hill.
Mr.. Afford in company with a dozen
or so residents of the neighborhood
rushed to her assistance. They met
Mrs. Afford at the gate and she told
them man had attempted to enter
her home.
Officer Wood, whose beat is in
that vicinity, was summoned and he,
with his posse of more or less fright
ened citizens, surrounded the house
and found the contented bossy en-
jOying her days feed for the second
time.

BROOKLYN WANTS
TO TRAIN HERE


The following, which is only part
Of. story appearing in the Brook.
lyn Eagle of Wednesday, March 16,
will be of interest to the citizens Of
BOgalusa:
1T proves nothing, however, ex-
cept that the American Leaguers
have it all over our backward ath-
letes in condition. Said Browns have
been here three weeks with the ad-
vantage of uninterrupted good wealth
er and ideal surroundings, while Rob-
bie's squad has been up against every
drawback in Old Jupe's bag of tricks
during the past few days.
"BogaTdsa added a few frills to the
program announced in yesterdays
dispatch. Besides the brass band and
automobile ride, Mayor William H.
Sullivan closed the schools and filled
the grandstand with the kiddies. The
latter, had the time of their young
lives. Back of first base the Mayor
has grandstand, all his own, in
which the families Of Bogalusa
watched the proceedings. Last night
the players Of both teams witnessed
several boxing matches>at they. NJ.
c. A, and tonight they viii be the
guests at a big reception in their
honor at the Pine Tree Inn. Uncle
Robbie was so favorably impressed
with Bogalusa as a training camp
that he tried to get Boss Ebbets to
select it for next spring. There are
two excellent ball parks here and
splendid accommodations"
