cultural College Extension Bureau.
The course viii last about ten days

tural department has made thorough
experiments on.
Mr.. Lindsey is a student Of the high

FINED FOR SPEEDING

There have been some Of our ciG-
zens fined during the week for speed
ing in the city limits, and there is to
be a more careful watch put on our
highways hereafter. There have been
too many accidents lately and the au-
thorities are going to do their best to
stop it. So here is your warning.
A motor is seldom careless, it is the
one at the wheel. Your car is de-
pendable piece of machinery; it will
act as you direct it, carry you where
Iyou will, and be careful of the lives of
others and your own as you may de-
termine. Therefore exercise care in
driving at all times, and be more than
willing to help make the roads safe
for others as well as for yourself; and
give theo ther fellow a square deal for
his life. Shocks, sorrows, and tears
come after carelessness.

TEXAS TERROR MEETS
KURTHWOOD SHERIFF

One Of the would-be toughs from
Texas thought he would raise little
hell all his own down in Kurthwood
Sunday night. but the gentleman from
Texas never heard of Sheriff Gentry
before. However, we will bet our next
Christmas dinner that he will remem-
Der that name for many moons to come.
1t appears that this man from Texas
was employed on the road gangs from
Peason to Kurthwood, and had been
in the habit of boasting that he was the
fellow that killed Big Boy who was
murdered a few months ago, near
Kurthwood. Sunday he managed to
get some shinny under his hide, and
then he became a bold man, arming
himself with a big gat, he sauntered
down to the niger quarters and put
them in terror until they called for
help. Then Sheriff Gentry went down
there and waited. Very soon the bully
came along, taking up the whole road
and challenging the whole world to
come out and get whipped" Mr..
Gentry nabbed him. but the terror of
Texas made for his gun. Gentry gave
him the cutest little tap on the face
that laid the terror of Texas limp
helpless mass on the ground, and it
was not long before he whined for
help.
Well, that's the story, and he is now
IN the cooler on three charges. and |
guess he'll stay there.

HOOVER BEsTS SHIP OWNERS
30 U. S. Vessels for Russ Relief is
Body Blow to Profitsers

Washington, Jan. E. ~ American
independent shippers have been thwarl-
ed in their attempt to boost the price
on grain shipments for Russian relief.
The shipping board. at Secretary Hoo,
vers request, has placed 30 ships at
the disposal of the American relief ad-
ministration.
Henceforth, it is understood, these
ships will convey American food to
Russia at fair rate. to be fixed by the
shipping board. Movement of grain
In these government-owned bottoms i
expected to begin at once.
This sudden increase in rates, Off
cials declare, was probably due to the
provision in the appropriation bill
which stipulates that Russian relief
grain must be carried in American bot
toms.
AS soon as the Independent opera
tors read the provision, officials be-
lieve, they boosted their prices to So
SO, and In some cases to 1915 ton,
as against $3.50 ton the week before
when the relief administration first APP
preached them for bids. On the other
hand, the foreign shippers rate was
$40 a ton last week and approx
mately $5 ton this week.
The immediate response of the ship
ping board has saved the lives of sew
eral thousand Russians, Hoover said,
and has prevented the independent
ship-owners from taking approximate
ly 81 100000 out of the $4,000, 900
congressional appropriation.

VERNON CANNING COMPANY
is LATEST INDUSTRY

The Vernon Products and Manufsc-
turing Company Of louisiana IS the
full name of the newest industry added
TO Vernon Parish.
Mr.. R. A. Hamilton, who is a new ar
rival from North Arkansas, is the prime
mover in the new organization and giII
be general manager Of the canning
factory.
The company is selling stock>to the
farmers of the parish in small quanti-
tres SO that they may have a share in
the profits of the concern. Anyone
can purchase stock.
The officers of the company are:
president, ]. A. Cain; Vice-president.
]. w. Williams; secretary. ]. w. Math-
is; treasurer. ]. L. Maneval; manag-
er, R. A. Hamilton. The above Iist
of well-known men should go far to
make for the success Of the new con-
cern.
It has been intimated that the Dem
ocrat has a finger in the canning fac
tory pre-. This is not SO, as the Demo
crat has enough of its own business
to attend to. The Democrat. however.
welcomes every new industry to Ver-
non, and offers its support and its
best wishes for its success.

J. K. COOPER is KILLED
NEAR HAYNESVILLE

Just as we go to press. the sad news
reaches us that J. K. Cooper, former
resident of Leesville, was shot and pro-
badly fatally wounded, in Garriton,
which is suburb of HaynesviIle.
The shooting took place at about 4
pm. on Sunday evening. 1t appears
that Mr.. Cooper tried to separate two
men that were fighting in Winn's store,
one being the owner of the store, Mr..
Winn. During the tussIe, Mr.. Winn,
thinking that Cooper was taking the
part of his opponent, started to fight
Mr.. Cooper. Mr.. Winn's son, aged
about y years, coming into the store,
and seeing the two men at it, ran for
the gun (isn't it strange how they have
one Of those things always handy?)
and fired aFMf. Cooper. Cooper drop
ped, and it was found that he was shot
in three places, all in the abdomen.
He was rushed to the hospital, where
we are told there is little hope of his
recovery.
Mr. Cooper was a former resident
of Leesville and is well known here,
having host of friends.
Mr.. Cooper was a member of the
Shreveport Police and resided at l743
Linn Ave.
Many will learn with regret this sad
event; for Mr.. Cooper was a great fa-
vorite when he lived here.

strate that the rule is to be rigidly en-
forced upon every offender hereafter,
irrespective, and we hope that it will
be a warning to all.
Bets were freely offered that there
would not be a fine in this case, but
the betting men little knew the spirit
of our elected officials. Moral: Don't
bet!

LLANO'S AGRICULTURAL
CLASS IN SESSION

Recognizing the importance of sci
entific knowledge for the farming op-
erations of the Colony, this new edu-
cational venture is meeting with gen
cral interest. While former lessons
dealt with the different kinds Of
soil that the farmer has to deal with
and which he must understand if he
wishes to be successful, the lesson on
Friday night, January 6. consisted OF
the subject of the different fertilizers
that the plants need for their nutrition.
The plant can only then reach its per-
feet development, when it is fully nour-
ished and supplied with all the chemi-
cal elements in due proportion that its
normal character requires.
1t is hardly more than hundred
years since artificial fartilizer was man
ufactured. and hardly seventy-five
since guano and mineral fertilizers
were industrially and commercially pro-
vided for agriculture. Prior to that,
agriculture had been developed empir-
ically and was carried on in a rule of
thumb manner. Probably it was by
noting the luxurious growth of some
plant on some spot where animal dung
had dropped that the value of animal
excrements as valuable plant food
was inferred, and the use of manure
gradually became customary; but far
mers were entirely lacking in know
ledge of plant chemistry. And only
after men. trained in scientific meth
DDS of research, became interested in
the subject has scientific farming be-
come a possibility.
The following fifteen elements con
stitute the greater part of the soil and
play the most important part in plant
growth; Aluminus, calcius, magnesi-
um, potassium. sodium. iron, mangan-
ese, oxygen, silicon, carbon, sulphur,
hydrogen, chlorine, nitrogen and phos-
phorous.
In living animals and plants oxygen
combines with the tissues and is given
off in the form of carbon dioxide and
other gases. In the sunlight plants
take up carbon dioxide and separating
the two elements builds the carbon IN
to the tissues and gives off the oxygen.
This is accomplished by the sunlight
acting upon the green substance Of
plants. Nitrogen does not enter direct
ly from the air into animal or plant
tissue, though it is an important ele-
ment in these tissues. Nitrogen is,
however. taken up from the air by GER
tain plants. such as clover, peas, and
legumes in general. The nitrogen be-
ing taken up by bacteria which work in
the soil on the roots of the plants. In
the fertilizer plant Of the LIano Colony
Comrade Coleman is growing these
bacteria BY the trillions. With such
team of instructors-we mean Prof |
Martin and Comrade Coleman-the
agricultural activities surely are bound
to boom in the Colony. especially as
their instruction will be seconded byl
a good bunch Of farmers and garden
