Use Compass and Live Long.

A document was found in. Paris
recently by French weekly review
which prescribes very simple meth
Cd for insuring long life. The docu-
ment in question is dated 1860 and
sgned DR.. Won dor Fischweiller, who
is said to have died at the age of
1O9 years. In it the doctor gives
the following formula to assure
great longevity: "When you go to
bed always take compass with you
and with the aid of the compass place
your bed in such a position that your
head points directly north and your
feet due south. Sleep soundly and
in horizontal position and you will
live long" The doctor explained
further that after patient and care
full study he had discovered that a
body placed in such a position was
in direct line with the various mag
netic currents coming from the north
which in passing through the body in
sure regular circulation of the blood
and helped to maintain the tissues.

LARGE SWEET POTATO CROP.
More Storage Houses Are Needed
for This Years Crop.

Louisiana is producing another
large sweet potato crop this year, a
crop of such, magnitude that the
early markets cannot possibly absorb
lit and unless storage facilities are
provided to take care of it several
million dollars worth of sweet po-
tatoes are destined to rot. Such
status of affairs will reflect heavy
losses upon the growers who are be-
ing urged to plan to store their crops
and carry them over the glutted
period. With this in mind the Ex-
tension Division of the State Univer-
sity has inaugurated a campaign for
the erection of storage houses on
every farm.
Farmers should begin to make
preparations for storing their sweet
potato stock, believes M. Hull, sweet
potato specialist. Plans and speci-
fcations for building tese houses are
available upon request from the To-
cal farm demonstration agent or by
writing the Horticultural Depart
ment, Louisiana State University at
Baton Rouge. Personal supervision
will be given during the erection Of
tiC IlouSCh anu aSoloIcaICc VIII DC 1cIl-
dered throughout the curing period
of the potatoes. In number of in
stances abandoned tenant houses, or
other buildings not in use on the,
farm may be satisfactorily convert
ed into storage houses at small
cost; and in the hill sections of the
state where pine logs are available
they may be used in constructing
adequate places in which to store the
surplus stock. H.
The storage house, in addition to
keeping the potatoes at minimum
loss from decay, possesses the fol
lowing advantages:.
l. The curing process improves
the flavor of the potatoes and makes
them more salable.
2. The expense and labor of max
ing the dirt banks each year is done
away with.
3. The house can be entered and
the potatoes removed during warm or
cold weather. This isn't practible
with dirt banks.
4. The house. can be used for the
storage Of other farm produce after
the removal of the potatoes.

VOTE ON PROHIBITION.
Literary Digest Poll Promises Sur

The last issue of the Literary Di-
gest shows that its poll on prohibition
retains it's general character, and in
dicates that as the number of votes
increase there may be some surprises
when the special poll being made
among 100000 women is announc-
ed. The paper publishes the result
of poll taken at a soap factory in
New Jersey. The result shows: For
enforcenl. ut, 1862; for modification,
720; for repeal, $50. The Digest
makes this comment: Especial interest
attaches to this vote because approxi-
mateIy 80 per cent of the workers
polled were women. In spite of this
fact the vote is against the present
laws by a proportion of 9 to l."
A total Of 617,833 ballots are Gov
cred in the last poll published, and
the result is as follows: For contin-

TO FIGHT INSECTS IN AFRICA
Methods Used in Louisiana to Be EN-.
ployed in British Uganda.

II. H. Hargreaves, entomolopist
Of Uganda, British protectorate in
East Africa, who is in New Orleans
investigating the various problems
connected with the work of insect
eradication, stated few days ago
that the methods used in Louisiana
would be employed in fighting the
pests in Uganda.
"Cotton is the principal export
crop of Uganda and it is to be de-
veloped considerably in the next few
years." said Mr.. Hargreaves at the
Monteleone Hotel $50 far no seri-
Gus insect pests have been encounter
ed, but their is great danger of in
roads Of the pink boil weevil which
lnfest the cotton fields of the neigh
boring states of Soudan and Tan
ganyika, the latter formerly German
East Africa.
CAS- all the cultivation is done by
hand and the entire country is in an
exceedingly primitive condition, if the
pink boil worm were to get foot
hold it would be impossible to adopt
measures necessary for eradication,
and the entire cotton industry would
have to be abandoned. For this rea-
son it is essential to introduce pre-
ventatlve measures and preventative
legislation. That is what I am espec-
tally interested in here
Mr.. Hargreaves said the 10000
bales of cotton grown annually in
Uganda are produced largely by ma
tive labor, there being only 1000
Europeans in the country, which has
a population of 100000 Africans. |
There is no winter season in Uganda |
and, consequently, cotton will grow
for an indefinite period.
In order to prevent insects from
breeding throughout the entire year,
legislation has been enforced prohib~
iting the natives from producing more |
than one crop from the same plants.
AS soon as. the first crop has been
picked, the plants must be destroyed,

Webs on Trees No Cause For Alarm

AZ
In certain parts of Louisiana the
appearance of silken webs on various
trees is attracting attention. This
web resembles that spun :,v certain
spiders and in some cases is so thick
as to cover trunks and branches of
the trees with silken film. though
the foliage is green and healthy. This
silk is spun by small insect known
as psocid. 1t is a close relative of
the socalled "book louise" tiny
pale insect often found among the
pages of old books. while the book
louise is to be considered a pest. be-
cause it feeds on paper. the psocid
feeds on lichens and its presence on
trees should not cause apprehension,
according to Thos. H. Jones, ento-
mologist the Experiment Stations,
Louisiana State University. The
psocids feed under the silken webs
which they spin though they may not
be found on parts of the tree where
the silk is most noticeable. This IS
usually due to the fact that by the
time they have spun a large amount
Of silk on any portion of the tree
their food at this particular point
has been exhausted and they move
to better feeding grounds.

or 81 years. Mr.. Capdeville had
Teen IN falling health for a long time

ceiVIng the news of the auditors death
governor Parker ordered the flag on

and declared that he had lost a per
Sonal friend and one of the best ad-
Vlsors of the administration.
Mr.. Capdeville was an outstanding
Inquire in Louisiana's politics since his
election as mayor of New Orleans in
1899. He was appointed auditor of
public accounts in 1904, was elected
to the position in 1908, and re-elect-
ed three times. He survived the polit-
lcal storms attending the fall of two
state administrations, the last in
1920 when Governor Parker was
swept into office.
His ADMINISTRATION as mayor of New
Orleans was noted or two important
events, the installation of the modern
sewerage system and the organizing
OF the Public Belt Railroad. The
board of port commissioners also
began to function during that period.
He was mainly instrumental in the up
building Of the modern city park
which stands today as a monument to
his energy and civic spirit. He was
born in New Orleans in 1912, son of
native of France. He was one of
the early graduates of the Jesuits
College, and later was president of
the Alumni Association. He enlist
ed in the Confederate army shortly
after leaving college, and after the
war, studied law and graduated from
the Louisiana State University in
1868, and practiced until 1885 when
he became president of the Merchants
Insurance Company, which he held
for sixteen years. He was also pres
ldent of the Orleans street railroad, |
and was chiefly responsible for the
of the line. He was
4 staunch Catholic and prominent
of the Knights of Columbus
and stood high in the councils of the |
order.
