Iowa buys "U. S. Inspected and
Tesed"' oleomargarine for her own
tables, an sels here uaninspected but.
ter to the J.ss well-informed peoples,
and therefore the les prosperohs
peoples.
The Commercial-Appeal recently
had a striking editorial on "The High
Cost of Living," in which it said:
"The vulgar rich and the vulgar poor
will not buy anything cheap." The
best grades of olemargarine sell for
abount three-fths the price of butter
There are other wise people beside
the dairymen of Iowa. The great
dairy State of Michigan has nearly 12
times as many oleomargarine dealers
as the ialkle State of Georgia. The
Queen of ad es dairy States, Wis
eonsin, ha naely 9 times as many
oleobiargayine dealers as the great
peanut and cotton-growirg State of
Alabama, and Minnesota, the Crown
Princess of the dairy States, comes
along with nearly 9 times as many
oleomargarine dealers as the grand
old State of orth Carolinsa and New
York, the biggest of all the dairy
States, has 14 times as many oleo
margarine dealers as Texas, the great
es of all the peanut and cotton
gsmewing States.
Think of these things.
Will the Federal Government for

market for vegetable oils?

al teachers in Louisiana have beenI
trained in the colleges of other states;
many of our boys who desire to study
agriculture select some other state
college and not infrequently they
fail to return to Louisiana; remaining,
to help build up their adopted state.
More than fifty per cent of the Lou
isiana soldier boys taking industrial
training by government aid select ai
college outside of the State. Why is
this the case? With every natural
advantage why shculd we not havei
one of the best Agricultural Colleges
in the country and make our rural
districts the show places and pride of
Louisiana.
BUSINESS BEFORE PLEASURE
Nothing is so susceptible to t~-a
vesty as that frenzied traffic in
shad:ows and gestures called the mo
tion-picture business; and no char
acters are more capable of extract
ing the essence of mad mirth from
'its manias than our old acquain'ances
of the clock and suit trade, Potashi
and Perlmutter in "Business Before
Pleasure" which will be the attraction
at the Lyric Theatre, Wednesday,
February 18. Abe and Mawruss have
exchanged ready made garments for
the canned drama, and are involved'
in feats of desperate finance in the
nightmare hand of the f!lumq.
The result is a proper sequel to the I
earlier adventures of the H' *'-ic'
partners an amusement of an a!a.ost
ecstatic character. The JeTwi-h of
humor, when directed towa "h
foibles and race traits of the chosen
people, has a special quality that fls
admirably into the comic purnnml of
the theatre and these characters Pot
ash and Perimutter.
"Business Before Pleasure" has a
vampire and a villain whose function
in the plot is to keep Abe and Maw
russ on the anxious seat of comedy.
The vampire is purely professional in
her seduetions; she is really a pure
woman; but that does not grevent
Mrs. Potash from becoming unduaij
suspletous of her heetric influence
upon the senior partner.
The villian, who is also beacker of
the P. & P. Company, has designs on
the Vampire, but his base intentions
are thwarted by AbE and Mawruss,
whe rise to - great height of ideal
ism when they descover the taint of
Spe earrupaoea in their enterprise.
