Grinding Season
Advances Well.

Every sugar mill in the parish
is now operating, the late ones
starting last week. From all re-
ports the prices obtaining for
cane SO far are satisfactory, and
the planters should make a fair
ly good return from the harvest.
The cane however is light, the
weather conditions were agains5
the heavy cane. There is no great
amount Of sugar III the cane, and
while they are tall they are not
sufficiently full Of the elements
which make for good yield. Hope
Is entertained that conditions
will improve as the season advan-
ces. There appears to have been
no particular shortage in labor,
although some of the places
would welcome more hands.

Good Reports As
To Highways Now

People making the trip to New
Orleans in the last few weeks re-
port the highway between hers
and New Orleans in fine shape
and in better condition than i
has ever been. More attention i
being given the same, since the
State Highway has the same un
der charge.
Good reports also come as tC
that section between here and
Morgan City, between GibsoT
and Bayou Boeuf, where the
State Highway is also in charge
and people making the trip be
tween the two points were very
complimentary for the past few
weeks. What effect rain will have
on the situation remains to be
seen.
With the short cut to Chacahou

Police Jury Held
Regular Meeting,

On last wednesday the police ju-
Iry OF this parish held it's regular
meeting at the court house. A
quorum was present and various
matters were passed upon, to-
Igether with the usual routine
matters.
a motion to appropriate fifteen
thousand dollars to construct a
toll bridge across the bayou at
Iarose was lost when put to a
vote. Judge Thibodaux moved
that the pontoon bridge at Larose
be made a free bridge, this also
failed to pass.
Expenses to be entailed in re-
buildings and other i'm
provements on the property of
Mr.. w. j. Boudreaux at Chaca-
houla is to be borne by the road
and with the buildings
removed the right of way for the
short cut to Chacahoula will all
be cleared.
Agreeable to a petition presen-s
ted by the tax payers of Road Dis
5rict No. 2, the maintenance tax
was abolished in view of the fact
shatthe State Highway Commits
sion had taken over the mainte-
nance of the roadway.

President Calls
Extra Session.

President Harding has callel
an extra session Of Congress for
november Goth, Monday Of next
week. His advisers previous to
the election intimated that if the
administration desired advan-
cling any of its measures, or put
ting over any of it's legislation, it
would have to be done at an ex-
ira session. A hint to the wise, a
nod, seems to have been suffi-
cient in this instance.
The Congress at the regular
session premises to be hostile, and
the representatives who had
close or dangerous calls, as well
as those who hal to explain. and
could not explain for the little or
nothing accomplished in two
years, unquestionably will want
to have it said that they at least
tried to smoke the administra-
ton out of its sleepy inactivity.

That the automobile tire of to

One deals with a medium-priced
car driven 10000 miles through
the rocky roads, of western meun
tain country at the conclusion OF
which the tires looked good for
another 5000 miles. The other
instance refers to a days drive

ing.
From all reports there was g
apathy throughout the
country, and the Republicans
were not over enthusel, neither

bolster his weak administration, /.
or apologizing for the same.
while the Democrats were pour
ing hot shot into the program of
nothing, and puncturing it full Of
holes
Democrats elected Governor
Smith in New York, as we'll as Sc

This is the season of the year
when the prudent and careful
housewife replenishes her sup
ply of Chamberlain's Cough Re
medy. 1t is almost certain to be
needed before the winter is over
and results are much more
promp and satisfactory when it
is kept at hand and given as soon
as the first Indication of cold
appears and before it has become
settled in the system. There is
no danger in giving it to children
as it contains no opium or other
harmful drug. Obtainable every
where.
