The Vakte of Louisiana Lands, and of
!Ours, the Best in Louisiana.
'W4rkre is a tide in the affairs of men, which,
tkeen at the flood, leads on to fortune. In a very
excellent editorial in the New Iberia Enterprise
the wonderful value of Louisiana lands was refer
red to and the possibility of making two good crops
per year on these lands was demonstrated. The
truck gardeners of Louisiana are now giving an im
Inenee amount of attention to the economical pro
duction and profitable marketing of their very
valuable crops. Preparations for the fall crops
begin at about the time the corn crop matures and
is taken ,ff and these truck garden crops of vari
ous kinds will grow right along through our Lou
isiana winters and be sold far away up in the
North by the time that the next corn crop is to be
planted on the same lands.
The best oats that we can produce in Louisi
ana, and under favorable conditions here we can
produce a hundred bushels to the acre, are the oats
planted in October. These oats can be grazed
. during the winter and can be harvested as sheaf
puts, or as regular threshed oats in April or May
~iid the land be then planted at once in corn and
" eOw'peas and there will thus be secured a good
.corn crop in the fall and the fertility of the land
be maintained.
In Louisiana, and in our own parish of Plaque
mines, we have been too much given to what the
French call mono-culture. For a hundred years
our tillers of the soil, great or small have been de
voting themselves practically to but two crops,
those of sugar cane and of rice. Mono-culture
produces great skill in the single culture which is
practiced, but it carries with it such extreme haz
,ards that common experience has decided against
t4~ ithalugh our enthusiasts adhere to it. Cotton
plaiters arie very reluctant to take up other cul
tures when they can successfully produce good
.crops of cotton and so it is with those who grow
sugar cane and With those who grow rice.
The narrowing margins in the culture of these
leading staple crops is now bringing our people to
a better appreciation of th advantage of some di
versification. Millions of money are spent in Lou
isiana in preventing the grass from growing in our
fields, and yet Holland,much of England and much
of Denmark'make tlfeir fortunes out'of gras and its
,oncidental cattle raising and dairy business.,We have
never seen finer cattle anywhere in the federal union
than'thosethat are born and reared here on the
Lower Coast. Many of our farmers have mag
nificent work cattle that will weigh from 1,000 to
1,200 pounds each, and yet scarcely any attention
is given to the cattle industry. A large part of
the success in raising hogs is to give them adequate
pasturage. That could be done here on the Lower
Coast, and yet no experimeutal culture has been
carried on sufficiently far to de nonstrate eit er
the success or failure of hog raising on the Lower
Coa t. Truck gardening has become the current
passion just now and very fortunately for our in
dumtrious truck gardeners they have apparently
done quite well in their work thus far. Truck
gardeninig requires such an immense amount of
and such persistent hard work that we are led to
wonder as to whether or not our. people will per
aist in it and carry it on to the great success that
is here possible in it.
We think, however, that there is room with
us for mahysagricultural and horticultural indus
:tries. If chicken farming could be made to pay,
and it is said that it is one of the most certain
.sources of wealth in the whole country where
properly conducted, we should think our orange
growers would do well to unite chicken farming
with their orange industry. It is a fact that
, hickens to do well should have large ranges of
good pasturage. Chickens can eat grass just as well
as cattle and hogs do and seem to thrive on it.
Apart from that, the supply of insect life becomes
available in their large ranges and in newly plowed
lands they fairly revel in the amount of food they
can secure therefrom,
Our contemporary on the beautiful Teche, in
the good old town of New Iberia, deplores the fact
that our people are seemingly unwilling to avail of
the advantages that we have in the way of soil and
climate. It asks for a demonstration farm to be
Splaced at some point in the valley of the Teche to
show the good people there just what can be done,
We have in Plaquemines parish now many demon
stration farms and the 70,000 bushels of lettuce
and cucumbers sent from the little strip of terri
Story but a mile and a half long, comprising the
old Woodlawn plantation at the upper end of the
second ward of this parish, show that we have
tight there a demonstration farm, complete in
Severy respect,- with many experts engaged in it.
Mr. John Meyer,and his two skilful sons and his
S-bother, Judge Henry Meyer, have been the prac
directors of this great experiment station in
and have produced most wonderful re
Sd have done it all without any public ap
mToio sand, twtil new, without any properap
i of the w~onderful work that they have
azi r aow engaged in.
~ itiPtley of thee har its at
tractions, but when it comes down to plain dollars
and cents we think the paf'ish ot Plaquemines
leads the whole state of L(oui.i san3t in its .-possibili
ties of industral success andi that the state of Lou
isiana itself. ieads the federal union as a state in
its agricultural and horticultural possibilities. The
tide is coming our way. Let us avail of it.
The Brown Rat in The United States.
The U. S. Department of Agriculture has for
some time been taking cognizance of the enormous
industrial losses occurring in the United States
owing to the depredations effected by rats and
mice. The interest excited in this problem at
present has been accentuated doubtless by the out
breaks of plague that have occurred during recent
years in various countries and the perhaps defi
nitely ascertainad fact that these outbreaks are
traceable to rats as the con veyors or hosts of the
disease. In fact, it is stated that the parasitic
fleas that infest these rats are the true conveyors
of the plague and the plague can best be resisted
by the destruction of the rats. In Japan it was
reported that their local governments are now de
stroying several hundred thousands to a million
of rats annually.
The industrial phase of the rat invasion,which
is now presented to us is, of course, a very old one,
)but has seemed about as inevitable and unavoid
able as the pests of flies, fleas and mosquitoes that
are found in every civilized community. The
brown, or Norway rat, which is the subject of
bulletin No. 33 of the Department of Agriculture.
is a comparatively recent immigrant into theUnited
States. Fifty years ago they were never spoken
of otherwise than as Norway rats, the invasion by
those pests having been somewhat recent and they
named from the country of their origin. The black
rat, which was an immigrant into the United States
at an earlier date, came in presumably from Eu
rope over three centuries ago. The Norway rat
of more recent importation, is larger in size and
seems to have almost exterminated the black rat.
either by competition in search of food or by
actual conflict. The black rat, however, survives
to some extent in nearly all the states ot the fed
eral union and is reported to be abundant in
parts of the South. A variety of rat called the
Roof, or Alexandrian rat, is similar to the black
rat in form and habits, but not in color.
In regard to the black rat, we would state that
in the ratting experience of over half a century we
never saw one until within a year or two ago,
when in experimenting in various ways for the
suppression of rats in Plaquemines Parish of this
state quite a number of rat traps were used and
with them we secured out of say 50 or 75 rats, six
or seven that were of unquestionably of the black
rat family. This would show that they have sur
vived the competition of the Norway rat in Louisi
ana and would suggest that possibly the ample
food supply found in this state makes room. for
them as well as for their opponents.
The rat problem is attracting attertion every
where as industrial losses become a matter of
greater and greater concern with the narrowing
margins of profit in most industrial pursuits. The
utilization of by-prolducts during th. last.20 or 30
years has kirgely revolutionizedimanfft etaring in
dustries anat the sae s tirnytl, suppresscrn. of
waste has been f.ound e.qpally ~ieiatjl,, and':.4to
that probleni fhe iK't. iestibor' has entered very
seriou~y. This year Louisiana promises to yield
an enormous corn crop; one that will probably re
quire more or less exportation 'of the cereal to get
rid of the surplus and the rat problem collides
very seriously with the profits of corn culture.
Rats will attack rice in sacks, but are presumed
not to attack it in any very great extent where it
is stored in bulk.
Our scientists during recent years have been en
diavoring to secure some parasite or some bacillus
that will attack the rats and not attack other
things and would in this way enable us to control
the rat pest. But thus far these efforts, although
earnestly prosecuted, do not seem to have been
very successful. With corn and rice crops to the
value of many millions of dollars and with much
other material liable to injury by rats, there is
probably no other state in the federal union where
the rat problem is a more serious one than it is now
in Louisiana. It demands that everyone interested
should make all possible effort for rat suppression
and not sit passively and permit the rats to take
all they want and then lament the resulting loss.
Southern Cultivation.
The editor of the Progressive Farmer of Ra
leigh, North Carolina, in a recent editorial refers
to a trip that he had recently made through the
cotton belt of Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas and
to the fact that while he had not been over the
ground previously for some fifteen years, he was
seriously dissappointed in the lack of improvement
that was noticeable,
The methods of cultivation have been improv
ed wonderfully during fifteen years, but there is a
slowness on the part of the people generally in
taking up these advanced methods and it is only
the more progressive ones who show what can be
done with our wonderfully fertile southern soils,
Going to the Jamestown exposition two years
ago we were struck by the small fields visible be
tween New Orleans and Norfolk, Virginia and by
the fact that any cultivation going on in these
fields was done generally with a man to a mule
and the use of a one horse plow. This, of course,
indicated an entire indifference to economy in
human labor, which is now the practical problem
that confronts every tiller of the soil and suggests
how difficult it is for us to build up the agriculture
of the South excepting by an aggressive excellence
in culture, the result of gang labor under vigorous
management, or by the introduction of white labor,
which laborers shall rapidly become owners of the
Jands they till, afld id this way earn for the state
)and the nation th. wealth that lies dormant in the
soilt, The fact that this wealth can be secured
from our soil is manifested in the success of thous
• c'is I" f.r-in 'rs s ti he state at the
,pretnt ti.it, but such success is n1ot
universal and it; lack of generality is
attributable to tl;ih reluctant, indiiter
ent labor enmployed. All of this is to be
regretted. but it is fair to infer that
our im ,roveni-nt in this respect, al
though slow, wif b.- constant.
