r Grown in Louisiana
m' In the "Letters" column this
n morning we publish a suggestion in
to from Mr. George P. Thompson A
b that the truckers and berry
n growers be urged to brand their
shipments this season With the
ot legend "''Grown in Louisiana."
- The movement to advertise
e Louisiana and Louisiana products
le in thbi W was originated last o1
summr.i This newspaper the
Scommended it respectedly; and a
the plan has won individual in
of dorsements of many prominent
' Louisiamlans. The State Board
of Agrnculturseand Immigration el
r published some time ago an
lv earnast request that all Louisi
anians who ship vegetables aRd A
r. fruits have their shipping pack
agRes and conitainers labeleV Cl
"Grow in In Lonisiansa."
" Recent dispatciies from the
l Tangipahoa parish strawberry
- fields predict record yields this
a season with the fruit sustaimngi
5 its fue reputation for excellence,
, Mr Thompson tells of letters
d from persons outside the State
'i who taki ocsalsion to praise the
d Louisiana strawberries Uas the
.-, irery crate of these berries
r or, better still, every box- bore
t tbe "Grown in Louisiana" brand,
both the fruit and the State
would profit lomenseyi by thie
Sadvertising thus ieeured practie
cay without cost. For every
S of the fruoit tlhat tickled the
palates of: farawayr onsumers
would teach them, through its
"rown Ifn Louisiana" legend,
what sort otspriwberries to ask
for next tmhe, and less directly
but edcstivelygoald advertise
the ezeslemeeu productiveness
and ladaptbilht of Loutsians soil. PS

One dollar is a small beginning, but it will lead to
big ending. Try saving you.t spare dollars and see
what kind of a'showing you can make at the end of a
year.
Look around the world, and satisfy yourself, an1d
you will find many years of savings made the rich men
rich; and the one year of spending often makes rich
men poor.
