Sffi crop worst
IN HISTORY OF
ST. LANDRY
a»nort of Sepember 25 Gives
R This Parish Uttie More
Than 4,000 Bales
qU bestcan«e expected
Indications are Parish Will Not
*Go to Ten Thousand Bales
for Year 1919
When the history of St. Landry is
-ritten again, the year 1919 will
have to be dotted down as the worst
yet experienced by the cotton far
mers of thri parish.
The latest government report com
niled to September 22, gives this par
4 076 bales ginned for 1919 as
compared with 13,266 bales up to the
game date last year. -
According to the report of the lo
cal representative of the department
of commerce, bureau of census, St.
Landry will hardly go to seven thou
sand bales, in which event this will
sorely be the shortest crop by many
thousand bales ever made by the far
mers of St. Landry.
High prices of cotton is the partial
solution of the short crop. Through
out the South the crop is short and
as the census bureau makes its report
aie cotton experts are facing a sit
uation which they thought at one
time to be impossible.
Fanners are urged to hold their
cotton for bigger prices. It is argued
that when the final crop report is
made it will be seen that the United
States has produced an extremely
short crop, and cotton will then be
forced upwards.

GROWERS URGED TO SAVE
THE SWEET POTATO CROP
During the last few years the acre
age and production of the sweet po
tato crop—one of the most important
food crops of Louisiana—has been in
creased to such an extent that the
problem of storing and saving the
crop has become of great importance
According to speciàlists of the ex
tension division of the Louisiana
State University, indications are that
the output of the current year will
be larger than any previous crop
and they earnestly recommend that
the growers prepare for the conser
vation of this crop.
The leading sweet potato growing
■ States, which annually dispose of
their crops at maximum prices, are
those that make extensive use of stor
agé houses. Efficient storage is
simple mehod whereby the value of
the sweet potato crop may be in
creased materially without adding
vary greatly to the production cost.
An improvement in the present meth
ods is particularly desirable in Louis
iana where the crop is either rushed
•n the market at digging time, when
the price is low, or stored in outdoor
pits or banks, where from 25 to 90
per cent of it decays, while the por
• tion that remains sound is not of good
faality.
PUnsand detailed drawings of
"tweet potato houses may be secured
without cost by writing to the hor
ticultural department, extension dir
vision, Louisiana State University,
Baton Rouge.

PROTECT fall gardens
AGAINST CUT WORMS
Cut worms are the most trouble
wne insects with which the gardener
'kb to contend. They are smooth,
, *aarly naked catterpillars varying in
kagth from one to two. inches when
full grown, usually dull-colored and
<&tinctly marked with spots and lon
gitudinal stripes. Cut worms feed
Wwtly at night and spend the day
in the soil or under stones and
riibbish near their food plants. While
they feed upon the leaves of the
plants, their habit of cutting off
plants near the surface of the soil
causes the more severe injury. Sev
eral plants—more than are actually
needed for food—are often cut down
in a single night.
In small vegetable gardens hand
picking may be used to advantage.
Careful watch should be kept and
whenever injury is noticed, the soil
around the base of the plants should
be examined and the cut worms found
and destroyed. Shingles or small
boards laid about the plants and beds
for attractive hiding places for the
worms during the day. Here they
may be easily found.
Cut worms may be destroyed sat
isfactorily and economically by us
ing a poisoned bait. For general use
a bait made according to the follow
ing formula has been found to be ef
fective :
Bran .................20 pounds
Paris green.............. 1 pound
Molasses .................2 quarts
Orange or lemon..........3 fruits
Water, about ........3 1-2 gâtions
The dry bran and Paris green are
thoroughly mixed in a tub. The juice
of the fruit is squeezed into the wa
ter the remaining pulp and peel chop
ped into fine bits and also added. The
molasses is then mixed with the water
and the bran and poison wet with it,
the mixture being constantly stirred
so as to dampen the mash thoroughly, i
Enough water should be used to
thoroughly moisten the mash but not
enough to make it sloppy.
This quantity of bait will treat
about three acres. The material may
be scattered broadcast over the in
jected area at nightfall, or a small
quantity may be placed near each
plant. If applied during the day, it
dries out and is not then attractive to
cut worms— T. H. Cutrer, scientific
assistant, U. S. Bureau of Entomol

Manager Dietlein Willing to
Stake House's Reptation on
Next Friday's Big Bill
Good shows are not uncommon at
the Princess, but next Friday's bill,
with William Farnum in the "Wolves
of the Night," a seven-act Zane
Grey's powerful Western drama, ac
cording to Manager Dietlein, will be
one of the very best pictures shown
here this season.
The well known manager of the
Princess says that he is willing to
stake the reputation of his house on
this bill. He says that it is a wonder-
ful throbbing drama of the great
plains of Texas, where the six-shooter
is the law. It has plenty of "pep"
and action, and reports from other
cities indicate that this picture is
proving extremely popular. Mr.
Dietlein says that it is positively the
best Farnum picture of the year.
