It ia full of valuable information and statistics, and' is highly creditable to tliat sound and enterprising journal. tw Mrmdav an old gentletnnn, named J.

R. J. C. Bull and Donate Pnche, two of Kayne's prominent citizens, were in town kst Sunday. On the 14th part of the Brooklyn elevated railroad, in course of construction, fell on a passing street car.

Four persons were killed outright and twelve others were horribly mangled. 'Acairttcomes the sad news of a most drnlnmbla homicide. Mr. Thomas Hebert, Treasurer of Iberville Parish was shot and instantly killed, on List Friday night, at Plaqueinine, by Mr. Thomas J.

Gilday. Mr. Hebert was the returning officer for his Parish and a supporter of Gov. McEnery The report has it, that Gilday accused Hebert of fraud at the primaries, and in the dispute which followed called him a liar. Mr.

Hebert, who was unarmed, advanced on Gilday to resent the insult, when he was shot twice through the heart. We regret this unfortunate occurrence most deeply. Hon. James G. Blaine, of Maine, has written a letter to Mr, B.

A I Dear Sir: As many iarmers oi tuts parish, as well as other places, mtena to plant rice this year, 1 win give them some oi" my experience, ami ay, I have raised twenty-two crops this and Acadia Parish.

Rice is peculiar plant. There are many things about it that are hard to understand. As it is a water plant, it is very important to control a supply of water by making levees at least a year in advance, as new levees will not hold water. Land that is low and wet is best for rice, and should be plowed only a few days before planting and when dry enough to harrow, sow the rie.R on the backs of the furrows and harrow in, and do not re-plow, as that will turn the grass up, and it will grow and injure the crop. I plant tWfi-f mirths of a bushel to the acre, at any time as soon as the ground can he.

worked. I have succeeded well when planting about the 10th of May. It takes rice 140 daj'3 to mature. I have raised as high as 18 barrels to tho ncre but 12 barrels is a fair vield, and is now selling at $4 per bar rel It, far ahead ot cotton as monev crop, and requires less than one-third the work. Tobacco grows well here, and pays better than, cotton.

Corn, one year with counting the risk of vtornis, pays better than cotton. So, farmers, let us try something else, to a limited extent, without cotton, as he is a hard master, Gbejjos.
