train. We could enlarge at grea;
| length on facts which prove how
| much better it is to have this inland
lake Tor our adjacent body of waite,
| rather than the open Gulf, and which
make this a more desirable place
naturally for both a winter and sum
mer resort than the Gulf Coast.
But we would be deceiving our
selves and others if we were to en-
courage a belief that this great
natural advantage will bring wealth
to this parish without strenuous Ell
forts to utilize it. Our sit-dowll-
and-wait policy is what has put Tan
gipahoa parish ahead of us. l have
been told that in all the vast extent
OF the plneyWoods region of the
South St. Tammany parish is the
least developed agriculturally If
that is only half true, it proves the
mistake of depending on merely
natural resources. There is a large
health resort way up in Mississippi;
far away from the tempering breezes
of our lake and the Gulf which mod
crate summer heat and winter cold,
which is renowned, while the Ozone
Belt which is peculiarly the posses
sion of St. Tammany is unheard Of
as being ours, but Bogalusa and
Hattiesburg and Hammond far out
of the rim Of the Ozone Belt are ex-
plotting it for themselves.
The fact of the matter is that IN
less the wealth which has been stor-
ed up in the parish from the timber
industries is put to work to develon
the agricultural industry, most OF
the men whose professions are chief
]y in this parish and today count
themselves wealthy will in less than
dozen years feel the touch of pow
erty. The landowners who continue
to hold unimprOved cut-over lands
will learn what it means to be .laEd
poor if they do not now know The
merchants who have built up pros
porous businesses on the rapid
81 owth Of timber wealth know what
it means to have a slump in timber
business, and they must calculate on
its being entirely cut off in less than
ten years, and their customers must

j dictates of nature, and rendering

. necessary to secure the, best results
IN the production of wealth through
any natural resources, and since it is
especially demonstrated by many and
undlsputable, especially in this ter
rltory, trading on Lake Ponchartrain,
that pine timber seems to be the one
natural resource that has produced
more wealth from the son than any
other, and is seeking again to inhabit
all OF the waste places and denuded
lands where the least sort of protec-
ton is given the territory against
fire, and that such tim ber's growth is
rapid, and since timber values for
naval stores, for lumber, for coal, for
fuel, for cord wood, and for paper is
becoming more and more in demand
by reason OF the virgin forests being
cut away; and since there is no CON
t11ct between forestry and agricul-
ture, because they go hand in hand,
the land needed and suitable for
farming should be farmed, and all of
the rest of it should be devoted to
WV " ouoSIAOA VI I1ScS, duU Waste
and idle land, in grazing of cattle
and sheep, because fire protection on
these lands make both for the pro-
duction of ~timber, and for better
grazing for cattle and stocks and
since the protection of the country
from fire will increase the game, and
the fish in the streams, and will cause
the denuded and waste acres of the
country to do it's work for us today,
and for our children, and children's
children tomorrow
Therefore be it resolved, That we,
the people of ST.. Tammary parish,
in conference assembled at Mand,;-
willie, Louisiana, pledge our hearty
support and cooperation to the De-
partment of Conservation of the
State of Louisiana, and especially to
the forest and game divisi ons therr-

them at public expense a trip to Cali

ed man. For the worst knockers We
have in this parish are among Ouu
very richest men. l believe there
never was a native Of this parish
who has had an opportunity to see

finally come to the conclusion that
in healthulness and pleasing climate
st. Tammany parish is the best spot
anywhere, and that all it needs to
make it prosperous and wealthy is
the same industry and initiative
which are the real basis OF prospect
ty everywhere.
Lake Ponchartrain is the secret
key to these exceptional advantages
Of climate which we enjoy. It is a
well-known fact that an inland body
of water is great advantage to
agriculture in it's vicinity. Outside
Of California the greatest fruit reg
ion in the United States is in New
York Immediately adjacent to Lakes
Ontario and Erie Likewise in
Michigan and Wisconsin the fruit
districts adjoin Lake Michigan. The
temperature of an inland body OF
water changes more slowly than the
temperature Of the atmosphere, and
as equableness or eVenness Of tenn
perature is most favorable to best
crop production, the land which is
near enough to large lake IS most
suitable for orchards and is also usu-
ally the best for truck growing.
Now look at the map Of Louisiana
and observe that Lake Ponchartrain
lies for almost its entire extent south
Of st. Tammany parish, and Tangl-
pahoa parish has comparatively little
land contiguous to the lake and that
is all very swampy and marshy and
the lake is southeast from that par
ish. Now consider again that orr
prevailing winds are from the south
west and that our most delightful
weather is when the wind is from
that direction. So we have here il
St. Tammany parish practically a
monopoly on the special advantages
of the great inland Lake Ponchar-

are inclined to think that visitors
who invariably are enraptured about
the beauty spot Of this country and
the dplightfulness Of its climate are
nuts. 1t is just this which is the
greatest drawback to the parish to-
day. If we could take a few Of our

The only sure prospect for devel-
opment in this parish which can at
all compare with the timber that is
nearly gone is agriculture, and III
the latter is potential wealth much
surprising the best that timber
brought or could bring. 1t cannot
be too seriously urged that st. Tam
many parish requires organizing
genius and experience supported by
the united wealth of the parish to
develop it's natural resources. St.
Tammany can do the job, if it goes
about it in the right way. 1t can
turn the tide against it's present dis
couragements by intelligent united
effort Owners Of cut-over land,
timber interests, merchants, farm
ers, business interests of all kinds,
must unite and plan together for the
future, and we think sooner or later
drainage will be a part of that plan
