.A glance over the proceedings
of the .As,,ociationl oi 'oununent e
last miionday ev i ni;; ill show
the iilllHoi'talle( to .o' iiigton of
tihe ivoik it is doilig. The effort
to put IBogue Valiaya Ilirer back
to its iusefulness to the iierh
ants of Covington and the farm
ers, the work for the church i;l
the (Gipsy Smith speciLd tiraia,
the replaceinment of our through
train to New Orleans and the
effort to give Covington water
works and sewers-these are
things of importance that would
hardly be handled in other ways.
The matter of securing a Govern
ment appropriation for dredg'ng the
Tchefuncta river so that schooneri
and steamboats can be put in the
trade again came up at the meeting
of the Association of Commerce las,
Monday evening, President Warner
presiding. After due discussion it
was decided to take the matter uI
with our Senators and Congressmen.
It was thought that the Jahucke
Navigation Company could be induc
ed to hadie the matter of dredging.
provided the Government would con
senf to have the appropriation -usea
in that way:
The following letter has b'een se:n
to Senators Brou<s;ardc and Ras i4'3
*rn Congressran FV'rrir .
l-ioeuoi sila eirkt:-n mi-'a tinm ai:
we had the matter of dredging tr-.
bogue Falkaya River up with you.
and at that time you informed iu
that the matter was impracticable.
and sent us letters from the U. S.
Engineers to that effect.
This information. from their view
point is undoubted.y correct, but we
iare inforniied by Capt. D. H. Weaver
that the natter of putting the Bogue
b'aalya iiver in navigable shape is
not only feasible, but can be accoti
piisiied at a nominal expense.
That the Bogue Falaya River i.
navigable to vessels with a draft not
e;ceerding four feet is 'evidenced by
a sciooner unioading at the wharf
this day, and this is not due to hiig
water either.
Briefly stated, the river does not
rezuire dredging the entire distance
from .Aladisonville to Covington, as
contenipated ill the written opinion
of the U. S. Engineers; it simply re
quil e.i a chlannei cut through the bars
where such b.ars exist, said bars vary
ing from .>0 to 200 feet in length.
Now, if in addition to this, the
river was dredged above the schoner
landing, say up to the railroad
bridge, dredged deep enough to form
a settling baiin, this basin would re
ceive and retain all the alluvium and
thus prevent the formation of bars,
and in the future only this settling
or receiving basin would have to be
dredged.
Anl appropriation of $10,000 would
suffice to keep the Bogue Palaya
ntavigable for four or more years,
and we understand there is somn-.
Jhing over $3,000 remaining in th,!
fund to the credit of the Bogutt
Falaya River, so that it would re
quire an appropriation of only about
$7,o0u to provide the suin necessary
to ctarry out this work, and, this suvi
we ask ou,,to see that it is appro
priated.
\Vt fully understand that this
sunm, if used in the employ of Gov
ernmttientt dredges, would be a mere
bagateile. but we are of the opinion
that if the sumn were -available that
this work could be doiie by contract
at a price withinl the appropriation.
Covi .igton, as you know, enjoys a
collpetitive freight rate, but there is
danger of our losing this advantage
unless the river is made navigable
the entire way to Covington, and not
only part part of the way.
Captain VWaver has traveled this
river from boyhood up, and his
knowledge and experience is, in this
cia;e. worth more than ordinary ini
vestigation by soundings.
Therefore. all facts. considered, w,.
ask that you exert every 'effort
possible to secure an appropriation
of $10..00 for the above purpose.
Very truly yours,

. MAKING DAIRY
DISTRICT OF ST.
TAMMANY
PARISH
By A. E. Briggs.
It St. Tammany parish will g:
about it in the right way, we-can
c establish a dairy business here which
will be enormously profitable. At
this time when all over the country
and especially in the cotton, wheat,
and other staple one-crop sections
times are hard, money is scarce, ani
business failures are frequent, the
dairy farmer, according to the Dairy
Division of the U. .S. -Department of
Agricuiture, is making about the
1 :! 'ri). ;- !lpaf f1!%'H! w 1 1 wi'l.l
is making uioiiy. A icruib herd i
money loser. Good cows badly cared
for will not pay any profits on an in
vestment in them. And when th.
dairyman buys all this feed, his profits
will not be large. So, under present.
conditions St. Tammany parish could
I not be a profitable dairy district. Buti
proper treatment of our pineywoods
stump land to make it over into
farm land is the first step toward
building up the industry in this
parish.
-I One person who has th'e idea and
the business capacity to carry it out
,is Father Joseph Colombe, in charge
;of the Chinchuba Deaf Mute Insti
tute. Three or four years ago when
Father Colombe came to Chinchuoa 4
he found most of their co-ws tubercu
lar, and with the rare good sense
which distinguishes himfi hre promptly
had them killed despite the protests I
of his people..- To-day he has four
teen good grade cows, and he is not
depending on pineywoods pasture
and the shelter of trees to care for
them. Every night his cows are
housed in the big b.arn and well fed.
This fall he had 55 tons of good hay. i
about a third of it cowpea hay, and
he has silage besides. By cutting:
the pin'eywoods hay while it is in
bloom he finds it makes good hay.
Of course his hay field (at Ozone
Park) is fenced and the meadow is
not fired. It has improved with ever: y
cutting.
So far he has had little time and
less money with which to experiment,
and being wholly new to the country
h'e has had to learn step by stei)
how to utilize the peculiar condi
tions here. But these very handi
caps make his experiment the more
valuable for our consideration, be
cause he has no more advantage in
his favor than the average farmer,
and because of lack of capital he has
to go slower than would most of the
landowners in this parish. His work
is valuable for the parish because he
is blazing the way, showing how it
can be done. The Ozone Park farm
will this year be in charge of a young
Hollander brought up in the famous r
Friesian country where the. Kolstein
cow is queen of industry,' and this
young man apparently knows the
business. At any rate I understan-d
he has made an auspicious beginning
for the first thing he is doing pro
paratory to planting crops is to co
struct drainage ditches. Father Co- t
lombe' further testifies to his capaci
ty by the fact that through the in
stitution of a better feeding syste n
he has considerably increased the
yield of milk from their cows. The
clearing of stumps and d'rainage pro
paratory to farming the Ozone Park
Iland is surely evidence that at Chin
chuba Institute is an experiment sta
tion and demonstration farm which
everyone interested -in farming de
velopment in this parish can profit
ably watch and take lessons from.
Yet Father Coloibe tells me I am
the first person who has' made in
quiry concerning the marked im
provements in farming which he is g
putting into effect there,
Prof. Eckles, of Missouri, who is a
famous' dairy expert by reason of
having built one of the' finest dairy
herdg anywhere which is owned by
the Agricultural College of Missouri,
says "that what the dairyman must
do, in order that the production-of
milk may be the largest, is to imi
tate summer conditions as far as
possible throughout the remainder of
the year," '.-which he describes as
"(1) an abundance of palatable-food,
2) a blanied ration, (3)_ succulent
feed, (4) moderate temperature, (5)
comfortable surroundings." He also

Slidell, LIa., Jan. 27.--Anxious eyes
scanned the overcast sky this morn
ing, and later in the day emiles
greeted the blue spots that parted
the leaden gray canopy of a week of
disagreeable weather. Would it be
clear for the wedding? This was a
trying question for the coterie of
near friends of the happy couple who
had discussed it for days. The at
tractiveness of the gift room had
melted into the more important In
.erest yelated to the near approach
-a the solemn ceremonies. Autos
;lided to the entrance of the large
pavilion erected in front of the Sal
nen -residence, from which crowds
were to witness the wedding, and:
ilipped away, again, seeking in
Zormation and carrying messages.
All the little details and forgotten
things that must be.rushed through
on short notice occupied the busy
household.
The wedding took place at 6:3'j
p. m. Guests had arrived on special
trains, coming from various states
In the South and East. The electri
cal fountains on each side of the
porch sparkled in variegated colors
and shed a glow on the happy faces
near. Above the stairway of the
porch, with its decorations of palms
and ferns the bridal canopy or arch
was intertwined with lillies of the
valley, from the alter of which Rev.
Spurgeon Wingo was to pronounce
the words which unite Wm. H. Sulli
van and Miss Ellarose Salmen for
life. On the right of the porch were
gathered the officers and directors
of the big interests represented by
Mr. Sullivan. On the left were rela
tives and guests from various parts
of the country. In front of the
porch crowds of people- from St.
Tammany and other parishes, friends
of the Salmens and of Mr. Sullivan,
gathered to witness the ceremony
Automobiles were parked in massive
formation about the residence and
all anxiously awaited a glimpse of
the bride.
A hush fell on the vast audience
as Rev. Wingo took his place beneath
the arch. As the Grunewald orches

bridal party entered the porch. * Miss
