One may take the tax rate of g the parish and figure up the extra cost for good roads to the average farmer and you will find, we believe, that he would save the amount in a single welit's haulling over good roads. The question vitally concerns those who are interested in th development of the iparish and we hope ;to see the oqugstion subnitte.l to,the people of thfe parish. PARCEL POST BUSINESS We ha hahad a good deal to ay upon t the importince of standing by our e home enterprises. There is no doubt s but that the Parcel Post business has Q worked a positive i:jury to the local business mnan and ultimately works r harmful consequences to the consumer. d The growth of ,the mail order busi 0 ness is such as to become a very serious matter for each community. The pat ronage accorded these foreign concerns is not because the home merchant can t1 not supply these identical goods and ! often at a lower price but the big mail j1 order lhIues have literally flooded the w country with advertising matter mak- " ing showy catalogues and featuring C the advantages of the Parcel Post etc. t Thousands of people are caught by I these methods and work a positive in. jury to the home merchant and often times to themselves by thus doing. , We owe it to our home enterprises c to give to them our support. When we c need favors we go to the.n and usually g find them ready to help and when it ro comes to buying goods we ought to p give them our trade. P Perhaps some fault lies with the a home merchant in many cases. Often t \meshe dos nodt avertise his goods and does not put the necessary energy behind his business to attract the trade F The local business man should do his t( part to br\nw is busWiess to the notxce of the coimmunity. We would like to see our people stand s closer together in this proposition.

The highest duty of state and Federal Governments is to place agricultural education within the reach of all, The farmer cannot he helped until he organizes. and the Goverment can best help the farmer through organization, By co-operating with his neighbor the farmer can learn new methods of culture and the interchange of ideas will benefit both. The Nation's menu must be made up from the fields, paitures, orchards and gardens, and to farm intelligently the farmer must know what is needed, DEGIDED AGAINST YOUNG District Judge T. F. Bell decided that tJoe term of W. L. Young, state bank e:an:ianer. expired in I)ecember, 111, but that (cv. Hall is without le gal aut;r:ri; to fill a vacancy except' in the, I'se of death, re.,ignation or re moval, during a legislative recess. Young holds over, therefore under this decisicon, if Judge Bell is sustain. ed by the Supreme Court, until his suhcces-or is properly appointed and qualified. The opinion of Judge Bell was ren diered in the ouster suit brought by the district attorney and attorney general on instructions from Gov. Hall, R. N. Sims, with whom the governor sought to displace Young, was also repre seoted by cotinsel in the suit. Judge Bell exhaustively reviewed the authorities in passing on the cas, He stated that he was aware that his judgment as to the inability of the governor to appoint during legislativre reces, would upset exeeut:Lve usage inl this state, but hie nevertheless felt that the organic law plainly denied this right to the governor. Hlis decision on this point was based on constitu tional provisions of 1852, and 1879, and the interpretations of these pro visions by the Supreme Court. The court found it strange in view of the custom which has long existed in the governor's of!ice of appointing during recesses of the Sonato successors to public officers wl:.,e terms have ex Ditred, the constitu.;an makers of 1898 and 1913 did not cviange the organic law irn this respect.
