Let's Save the Birds.

The Banners correspondents who re-
port the bird-thrashing expediences OF
the youths OF their sections no doubt
90 50 unthoughtedily. II there Is not a
state law against bird thrashing, there
certainly should be, and we think there
is. To say the least, the practice Ii not
sportsman-like. The birds and all the
denizens Of woods and fields that are
not predatory in habit should be given
an opportunity to rest and sleep in
peace at night. As to the birds, it
should be borne In mind at all times
that they are mans friends and should
be protected. What would become Of
Your crops-in truth, how long would
you sMrUiCe-if 1t were not for the
birds: II you will let us answer for
You. We will say that we believe all
crops would fail and that all people
would soon die from famine II it were
not for the birds. Insects would ret
tis, sure. So let US protect the birds.

Why Don't You Register?

Local elections are held from time to
time. It may be that you will soon
have the opportunity to cast a ballot,

lose the opportunity through not being
thus qualified. The first OF this week
the reporter was told by tile Parish
Registrar, Miss Mary K. Bixler, Of
Plain Dealing, that perhaps about one
third OF the residents Of the parish sub
ject to registration had registered up
to that time, which is not any too good
q showing. One should registed to be
prepared for the emergency occasion
that may arise.
Miss Bixler spends each Monday aud
Tuesday In Benton and would be pleas
ed to have YOU apply at her Office at
tie Court House and register when
here either Of those days. Don't wait
until the last chance to register Il pre-
sented. You may forget to do so, or
may miss seeing Miss Bixler when she
makes her round Of the parish.

Gets His Money, Anyway.

Some months ago Mr.. j. A. Byrd.
whose plantation il three miles to the
east Of Benton, leased to broker 40
ACRES Of his place, the consideration
being 5000. The broker assigned 60
acres of the block to one of the big pro-
duciRg companies, the consideration
being $500. Before any Of the lease
money had changed hands the Ting
pen 4 Herold well, on which the lease
was pfedicated, was declared failure,
and was soon abandoned. Then the big
company got cramps and couldn't reach
around to its hip pocket. where its
wallet Of funds was carried. Mr. Byrd
then proceeded to rig up'' to bring
suit. and the lease money was paid
him, but not until after a long delay
and full investigation into the matter
on the part Of the big company.

Writes Of Princeton's Growth.

Inere came to the EDITORS desk the

Mr.. r. Il. Rurrage, of Princeton, writ
ten under date Of the 21st There is so
much of news value in Mr.. Burrage's
letter that We are going to give 1t here
In full-excepting only its closing par
agraph-thOugll some of the things lie
has to say have before been incorpo-
rated In news items in the Banner. We
trust Princeton's growth does reflect
that the Bellevue oil field is going to
be q good one, and we also hope to see
the new town grow in keeping with the
strides the wonder Oil field should
make. Here is what Mr.. Burrage has
to say
Owing to continued ad iii the
Rossier Banner, have at last found
my long last mule. Kindly discontinue
III the next number and send me bill.
Why don't You come down to
Princeton and see the new town Bos-
sier Parish is sprouting? You will
prchably be surprised to see a row Of
nice looking business houses now being
built parallel to the Il. and A. tracks.
We now have barber shop, which was
built by MIR. Jack Arnold, but was sold
to Messrs. Roam and Shackey, of OIL
City, a few days ago, no doubt at a
nice profit.
The Bozone Brothers are serving
the public in their Gem Cafe, and Mr..
W. W. Cullen will soon have their new
building open for rooms and board.
Messrs. Eltis and Weis are now con-
strncting a building to be used for gen
eral merchandise.
{ Nelson and ThOmasOn are prepar-
Ing for first-class drug store, and
Rushing Brothers will soon open a gen
erAl store next door, with Mr.. Morris
next to them, In the same business.
Mr.. j. Il. Frost, of Mexia. Texas.
has erected good sized hotel and ex-
poets to begin constructing several
other business houses at once.
The Standard Company Is moving
something like fifteen cars OF oil day
from It's loading racks at this place.
The group of wells west Of Prince
ton look very promising, and we have
every reason to believe our town will
soon be nice little city. Town lots
are changing hands rapidly Some days
l sell three or four.
have almost forgotten to tell yo,l
that Mr.. Sapp, Of Koran fame, has in
vested IN several lots and is erecting a
nice dwelling. The Prince heirs have
opened two tracts for townsites. and
MT. Watson tells me he is selling them
very fast. Mr.. Lemee Is now putting up
a dwelling on one Of them.
In the near future We expect to
have a picture show, ice house and sew
eral other new business houses. MY
blisfness Is very nice and expect ii to
increase with the growth Of the field. !.

Some land and lease holders at In

not little disturbed because of the

A Shreveport operator is authority
for the statement that IA characteris-
tic OF most of the Bellevue wells is that
after they have been flowing for a day
or SO they begin to show small amounts
OF water, amounts SO small that they
cannot be detected except by centrif,l-
gal test He gives as the reason for
this that the sand Is similar to the I'll

gether that after wells have been pro-
ducing for various lengths Of time they
