Stabbed to Death With Knife.

Charlie PembletOn. a cOlored tenant
on the Willow Chute plantation who
sought to play cave man, came to his
death in the public road some miles
south OF Benton last Friday morning,
and his slayer was none other than Ora
Anderson, who he was wont to refer
to as his woman.
1t seems that the woman, who had
been cooking at a levee camp on the
Benton and Bossier City public road.
was in the act of leaving Charlie and
was on a wagon with another man.
Charlie is said to have ordered her to
get off the wagon and take heating at
his hands. She confronted him in the
road and. according to her story. when
he drew back to strike her with q
board she ducked under the blow, ling.
ged close up to her .assailant and stab
he'd him six times with pocket knife.
1t would seem that Charlie was little
SLOW, or that the woman was rather
quick. Anyway, in few minutes he
was dead from his wounds and Is now
six feet under, and Ora languishes In
the Parish Jail.
SO far as we know at this time
tMonday EVENING" only three negroes
were killed in Bossier Parish last
week, but full returns may not as vet
be in. The two other killings are re-
ported elsewhere.

Mr.. Oscar Ogilvie, jr., Of Shreve-

Citizen from Mr.. ]. P. Clarkson.
Mr.. GARRISON has for many years
owned the Citizen, and as he is now
selling out, at somewhat advanced age.
we. judge he is retiring from the news
paper business. The paper was estab-
lished at Cousllatta during the recon-.
struction period by the late editor and
owner of the Banner-nOt with view
OF reaping pecuniary gain, or gain In
other way, but because there was mr.
gent need in Red River Parish for a
Democratic mouthpiece.
We are, of course, peased to see the
old Citizen still alive and prosperous
after the passing Of SO many years and
after having survived many reverses.

Why Not a Packing House?

Mr.. w. NJ. Mccall returned home
Wednesday of last week from st.
Louis. Mo-, where he went with a load
OF beef cattle for Mr.. Shaw. Mr..
Mccall reports a run from Shreveport
to st. Louis in % hours and not one
time OH a siding.
There were in the st. Louis shipment
S34 head of cattle averaging 1O77
pounds each, and sold for 6A cents
per pound. These beeves were fat
tened right here at home Ton the Shaw
and show the wonderful
possibilities of Bossier Parish for stock
raising. There are, no doubt, numbers
OF other meat products ready, IL we
only had market. This shows the
Importance Of packing house. Isn't
1t time we should begin on this pack
Ing house problem and put it through !?
Who will start the move? Don't all
speak at once, but sptak, and stand By
your good convictions.

:. Too Pretty to Cut Down"

+. 1 y ( 81 ~
One of the Banners little school girl
friends resididng out beyond the Mid
way store has written us note in
which she says: There are about
twenty little elm trees, from two to
eight feet high, on our place. Papa
says they will have to be cut down, as
some of them are growing near the
garden. He would be glad to give them
away IL any one wants them. They
are too pretty to cut down."
An elm tree, and most of Natures
things, are pretty some are truly beau
tiful. You are quite right, Marion, in
saying that the little elm trees are too
pretty to be destroyed, and you show
your artistic taste and appreciation of
things pretty in fields and woods when
the little elms appear to you as too
pretty for the blow of an axe. They
should be saved to ornament some
barren spot somewhere.
It has become a custom with people
everywhere to remember the dead by
placing cut fiowrs on the new grave.
They are OF only transitory beauty,
and soon IRE not ut all pretty, but be-
come so much rubbish in the way.
Again, the shrubbery that is planted in
grave lot seldom fourishes well, and
often perishes through neglect and
because of barren soil. Would it not
be good practice, reader, for us to
acquire the habit of planting on our
home premises trees in memory Of the
dead? The holly would be well suited
to such purpose or the long-lived elm,
or even the rugged oak, or pine, or
hickory. In fact, nearly all trees IRE
ornamental and some that are so are
also a source OF profit-the pecan,
black walnut, hickory. etc.
The time will yet come even here in
the New World, as now in the Old
World, when trees are too few and
harmful results will be attendant
thereon. China has for years suffered
destructive overf1ows because the for
ests Of the country are gone It IS not
too soon at this time to begin an ed
ucaional campaign against tn e day
when timber will be scarce here in the
United States.
But, to get hack to the subject at
hand-the twenty little elm trees.
Why don't some successful merchant
who will see this in print send out aud
get them and use them in identifying
the streets Of his town, planting some
of them In front Of his own place Of
business? Or they would be quite
ornamental fringing ones lawn. Drive
east from Benton, about twelve miles,
on the public road leading to Bellevue,
and stop at the home of Mr.. M. e.
Hyde. Ask about the little elm trees
Marion writes about and he will find
pleasure In pointing them out to you.

Let's Have the New Building.

Wednesday of last week every
woman in town had the privilege Of
telling her age. Miss Mary K. Bixler.
OF Plain Dealing, had the registration
books open here from $50 am. to six
o'clock pm. There were al voters to
register, and some had already regis
tered at Benton.
This was very important opportu-
nifty FOR every voter, as on February
18th chance will be given us to vote
bond for a larger and better school
building. This is an important move
toward retirement and it is hoped that
every progressive citizen will have his
shoulder to the wheel and push the
move over the top. Our children de-
serve the best at all times and we want
them to see how much we are in line
with the good work.

Beans and Beans.

Mr.. w. Fl. Reames, one of the Ban
ner's valued subscribers residing in
the Rocky Mount community has sent
IN by mail sample packages Of beans
present we are indeed pleased to
have. There is about handful of
bush velvet bean seed. and the accom-
panying picture shows them to be
quite prolific. Surely they ought to
be good thing and worth trying ont.
As a matter Of fact, we think they
have been tried out by several res
idents Of the parish.
The other package Is an envelope
full of quite small beans of a greenish
hugh. They are given the name Munp
beans and Mr.. Reames says OF then, in
his brief note: They are the best
things for hay and chicken feed ever
saw Other claims made for the Munr
bean is that it natures in from ninety
to 10 days, that it is good soil
building crop and that it will grow on
old cotton land. We expect the Mung
bean is destined to find place on
many Bossier Parish farms.
We are glad you remembered us.
MI Reames. and we are certainly
going to try out both these beans.
