KROTZ SPRINGS
IS TAKING ON
BIG CITY AIRS
New Village on River Forg
ing to the Front at
Rapid Gait
HOUSES AND PEOPLE
INCREASING FAST
New Industries and Model
Road Promise to Put it
in Front Aank
A few years ago, where the village
of Krotz Springs now stands therE
was a howling wilderness. When the
main line of the New Orleans, Texas
and Mexico railroad (Gulf Coast Lines)
was driven through, naturally a statior
was placed at the road's crossing over
the Atchafalaya river. Col. C. W
Krotz owned the land thereabouts, and
the first name of the station, Latan
nier, was later changed to Krot.
Springs, in his honor. The "springs'
part of the name was adopted from
the artesian well which the dought3
colonel drilled in quest of oil-in
stead of oil he got water, and perhaps
that was best after all.
The vast forest of timber which
surrounded the embryo village was a
fertile field for the lumberman, and
naturally this was the unexplored and
undeveloped wealth of the country.
The timberman's axe began to hew
out the forests and the busy saws of
different mills began to cut the raw
product into marketable lumber.
A dozen years, after all, is a brief
time in the history of a town, and
during that time Krotz Springs has
emerged from its swaddling clothes
and the place where a few settled in
quest of a home and a livelihood has
now begun to assume the proportions
of a real up and coming town. Col.
Krotz made his home there and in his
usual vigorous may began to hammer
after anything which would develop
the town and the surrounding territory
Krotz Springs may have been cons;d
ered a huge joke once, but the jok
ing era has passed and now the once
straggling village is beginning to loom
up as a place of 'size and importance.
As soon as the place boasted the
required number of people, the boost
ers there took steps to incorporate it
as a village under the laws of Louisi
ana. This being complete, the next
step was a school, and within a short
time a splendid and modern school
building was erected. Col. Krotz has
been often joked about the size of the
two-story school structure, and when
quizzed as to where the children to oc
cupy the big building were coming
from, invariably replied, with a smile:
"We are going to raise them."
Undoubtedly the colonel was wiser
than he was given credit for. The
school is being occupied, and perhaps
the children have already been
"raised." From a one-teacher school
is now about to jump into the two
teacher class, for the colonel was here
the first of the week to urge the
school authorities to place another
teacher in Krotz Springs' educational
institution.
Following the clearing of many
acres of land during the process of
logging operations, naturally these
denuded areas have been converted in
to farm lands. Everyone knows that
the lands along the great river are
the riches in America and have and
will continue to produce tremenduous
yields of everything grown in this
territory. The splendid shipping fac
ilities, both by rail and water, afford
an abundant outlet for the harvest
which is bound to come from the
thousands of acres that will be farm
ed in the years to come.
Col. Krotz, always smiling, is al
ways thinking and planning. He gen
erally gets what he goes after, and he
always goes after much. Just about
the time people in his section began
to awake to a realization that what we
lacked and what we mo; needed was
good roads, the colonel lea T the frame
work of a scheme to ,nstrict a
modern road par ,nI the Gulf
Coast Lines fr , he -93~ou Courta
bleau to his town. Almost everybody
laughed at the proposiiton, but that
didn't deter the colonel, and he went
to work and despite all obstacles he
put the scheme over. A road district
perhaps there'were several--was or
ganized and the required tax voted,
the bonds issued and sold and the
road is beginning to show up as a
real going concern. This highway
will connect Opelousas with Krotz
Springs,. and perhaps, later on, it will
be pushed through the forest on the
Pointe Coupee side of the river and
connect with the Jefferson Highway
at Livonia.
After all is said and done, Krotz
Springs, the butt of the jokesmiths in
the past, will soon take its rightful
place in the catagory of Louisiana mun
Icipalities. It may be years before it
becomes a real "big" town, in the
common acceptance of the word; it
may be a century before it becomes
a great city. But sooner or later, end
perhaps within the lives of many now
living, the once insignificant village
on the big river will be looked upon
as a place of importance and a good
place in which to live
