eeksEEvATisH WORK !
IN E-OOEED AREAS


Nren tie Isyees Of the Mississippi
broke SONS weeks ago Commiss .cner
NJ. L. Alexander Of the Department OF
Conservation placed all the available
resources OF his department OF the
Gisnosal o: the distressed people OF the
fool ID areas. Some time before the
river reached its highest stage, and be-
fore there had been break, Mr.. Alex
ander ordered the fleet Of the depart
ment to report At strategic PoiHts along
the rivers to be ready for an instant
call of the Governor or sf other COM
petent authority. Ths foresight and
wisdom Of this move was amply
proved BY the result. All the avaiia-
BILE craft and employees Of the depart
ment were placed at the disposal Of
the Governor, and both men agd boats
were held in readiness to respond IN
stantly to orders.
1t was a matter Of congratulatiou 70
Commissioner Alexander that local OF.
ficials and the people generally CO
operated heartily with the department.
IN It's work of rescuing the distressed
people and protecting the larger gams
from rapacious hunters. Three vaeks
before the break at Ferriday, Col. W,
S. Holmes, superintendent OF the game
division, went to North Leuisisna ta
prevent the slaughter Of deer and
other wild game. which ig periods Of
high water seek refuge on the ridges
and became easy victims OF conscious
less hunters. Col. Holmes placsd
agents at threatened points and these
agents saved many deer fleeing in ter:
ror from the flood. A number Of men
wore Jailed for killing the fugitive AMI
mails, but the lawlessness was sooH
checked. The sheriffs Of the parishes
affected by the FerridaF assisted Col
Holmes and his force by all means i9
/ their power, and the sportsmen OF the
/ section organized to assist the wor1
! Of the department. While the work is
North Louisiana was we'll under way
the situation became critical in Pla
Quemines and 81. Bernard parishes and
forces OF the department were sent t.
those parishes to save the deer drivel
from the lowlands and 70 render evers
assistance possible to the distressed
people.

OUTLAW ANInALsIN LOUISIANA. 4.

There is a widespread impression
that the conservation laws Of the State
protect all wild birds and mammals In
the closed season. and that 1t 10 uniaw.
ful to kill any Of the wild animals In
the state during that period. This 10
error. There are several animals and
some birds that may be hunted through
out the year by any one possessing q
hunting lGense. and some of this Wild
life placed outside the pale by the con-
servation laws should provide good
sport. Some birds and animals have
been classsd a. undesirables by the
Conservation Department Of the State.
and either laws enacted sY the Legis-
hture or regulations Of tke depart
meat, under tbs law, have made those
wild creatures outlaws.
Followinx IL q list q the wild life
outlawed ID Louisiana. The selection
OF the outlaws is not necessarily per-
feet in al respects, in that it includes
birds that may DO more good than

other creatures that should probably
xe placed under the ban. The outlaws

ONE SMALL BENEFIT
FROM THE OVERFLOW

One small benefit that will be oas
served in the districts affected after
the subsistence Of the flood will be the
restocking OF ths fresh water streams
and lakes with fish. The Mississippi
river is not fishing stream, but its
water contains millions Of game fisp,
which do not bite in its waters be-
cause they cannot see the bait. New
ertheless. the great river is one OF the
best stocked streams anywhere, and
abounds in many varieties OF fish.
This IS shown BY the millions Of fish
which are rescued from the bsrrov
pits after each high water period, and
in the pools Of the various swamps
In which the Mississippi flows every
year. The Conservation Department
of Louisiana sends out rescue parties
to save these fish marooned in tho
borrow pits and the Federal govern
ment carries on the work after on
! much greaterscale. IN former ye4rt
these fish perished misetably az ths
pits dried up. but now they are either
returned 10 the Udlu etTcdnI VI ot0
uSed by the Conservation Departmsas
to restock other waters Of the State.
The principal fresh water fish res
cued are large-mouthed black bass.
crappie (sac-a,lait), strawberry or cal
leo bass CLOSELY related to the crap
pie), rock bass, yarmouth bass. white
bass, yellow bass and several varte-
ties Of sunfish, commonly called perch. ).
Last year thers were 1885, ,420 fish
rescued from the overflow by the Fed
eral government and many Thousands
By tho Louisiana department. When
the water bursts through the levees
and flood the adjacent territory these
river fish are taken through the breaks
aud left in the Lakes and streams tnto
which the Mississippi water flows. The
overflow Of 1912 left an abundance OF
Fish in ALI the waters affected by the
breaks, and the game phenomenon will
be observed this year.

Community News
MRS. JARRET j. BENSON

To say that Edgewater's Second
Annual Fall Festival was n success
would be stating it mildly. 1t was
? great success and an occasion long
to be remembered by the hundreds
Of people who thronpcd to Town
Hall grounds for three evenings.
There was fun and amusement for
all, with splendid shows going on
continually and excellent music
furnished by the Boys orchestra
and the Thursday Night Musical
Club. The ladies of the community
served regular dinners on Thursday
and Friday and on Saturday even
ing the Barbecue was served.
Mcssrs. Frank Gaggs and Leo Dal-
teresa are to be congratulated on
their ability to cook meat pleasing
to every palate. Among the not
able people present were Honorable

date for State Treasurer, and Mrs.

Cummings, Democratic candidate for
County Supt. of Schools, Mr.. VIM.
II. McNichols. Democratic candidate
for State Auditor and our own Miss
Laura G. Manly. Democratic can
didate for County Clerk. The can
didates were out for pleasure how
ever, and kept politics, platforms
and planks in the background as they
Joined in the spirit of the occasion
rs friends of the people. Indeed
Mr. Staley and Mr.. McNichols so
far forgot that they were office
seekers that they Joined in enthusi-
astic and liberal support Of plat
form entirely different from their
own and whose only strong plank
was beauty. This, Of course, was

HoWards. Service
For Arvada Folks

Howard Service" featuring great
l. reduced prices in caskets, are out
standing business appeals put forth
by the Howard Mortuary Of Denver
in their series of advertisements be-
ing run in the Enterprise, is en-
larging the scope of their connec-
tions.
It is generally known, however,
that the Howard Mortuary offers a
funeral service at much lower cost
tran any Of their competitors, for
example, their retailing of beauti-
full Broadcloth casket for $1,000
which is far below. in fact about half
the price asked by competing firms.
The fact that the Howard Mortu-
rry owns and operates their own
casket factory. combined with big
volume of business which has grown
very rapidly in the past few years,
permits them to render Howard
Service at n cost very low.
Perhaps no mortuary in this part
of the country has grown faster or
more solidly than Iloward's in the
past few years. There equipment is
all new and as uptolate as there is
ir the city of Denver, and persons
skilled in their line of work are at
TIE heads of the various depart
ments. Mrs. Howard gives her per-
sonal care and attention TO all wo-
men and children cases, and hundreds
constantly testify to her painstaking
care and skill.
Special care to hundred details,
and proper care and preparation of
the body received, are some features
Gf Howard Service.
There is good reason for their
rapid growth in the business, and the
Howard Mortuary attribute il to
their sincere desire to serve better
with reasonable remuneration.
H. s. Burton has been selected as
the Howard representative in this
locality.
