A. M. KING MEAT MARKET Phone 48 Yarwood & Durrant and i EDITORIAL COMMENT How the Great;Southern Lumber Company Lat Bogalusa, La, utilizes ‘mill refuse and is re-forésting its logged-off areas is of local interest, faced as we are with loss of our lumber industry ere many years. As commented upon by the New York Outlook: : “Tt bas been the policy of this Jumber company from the time it started operations in the South to make the city that grew up around the lumbering operations a permanent one. This is being done by utilizing all the logging Waste, which includes tree-tops and limbs, and also the sawmill waste, in the manufacture of various kinds of paper and pulp, As the mill has a capacity when running twenty-two hours of one million feet a day, there is a tremendous amount of sawdust, shavings, slabs, and edgings that can not be utilized for fuel at the sawmill. This is consumed by a paper-mill at Bogalusa. Néw all the sawmill waste is being utilized, and this put the large burner out of business. In figuring the value of the material as rop- resented by its use to-day, the burner destroyed during its lifetime nearly a million and a half dollars worth of waste material which is now being used in the paper mill. ‘Forty-five hundred men are given employment at the plants. Mr. W. H. Sullivan, Mayor of Bogalusa and general manager of the Great Southern Lumber Company, insisted on planting a million young pines when foresters mentioned planting in terms of thousands, This number has now increased to 10,000,000. They now have 78,000 acres in process for reforestation. They are planting their trees 800 to the acre, using 500 for pulpwood, and in less than twenty-five years they will have logs from these plantings for the mill. Their mills can run forever, and the people of Bogalusa will have permanent oceupations and permanent homes’? ees ere We have every reason to be proud of oyr splendid variety of bird life in this district. Not only have we numerous game birds, but also many kinds of beautifulssong birds. At this season, good citizerfs and sportsmen will, whenever possible prevent molestation of nesting birds by dogs or boys. and thereby help preserve a valuable natural asset. S Tf men didn’t have to eat, the life of the woman who lives on a farm would be comfortable and free from care. But, aside from the time she spends worrying about what to eat, the average farm woman spends more than a third of her waking hours in preparing and servi enls~ according to records kept on Missouri housewives for the past fol We believe the same rests would be found in rural homes around Thi women of Missouri averaged 15.3 hours a day up and , time spent in dressing and recreation, they put in 11.3 hours every household duties, or about an hour and a half more than the farm usually works in a day. The year round their days are divided this way: preparing and serving meals, 34.7 per cent-; care of the house,9.8 per cent.; personal and recreation, 25 per cent-; garden, poultry and dairy, 9 per cent.; sewing, 5.4 per cent.; washing, 49 per cent.; children’s care,24; miscellaneous, 8.8 per cont: Tn January, Febroary and October the honsewife spent less time on honsehold duties that in the other months of the year; March, May, June and September seemed to be the heaviest according to the carefully kept recorils. And, thongh Sunday hag been called a day of rest, the Missouri farm wives “averazed 744 hours of actual housework every Sabbath day. We wonder how that would average up around here? eae ees Even nature makes mistakes. She sometimes gives a fellow too much jawbone ‘and not enough backbone. Too often, when judging radio broadcasting. programmes, especially «| music, amateur critics do not takeyinto consideration the difference in Te- ception of the various radio sets, is too often assumed that everybody listening in hears thesame sounds, which is by no means the case. A few grains of dust in the tube socket, a loose connection in the wiring, an unfor- tunately directed aerial, of batteries too nearly discharged, may turn a fine performanee into what sounds like a poor one. However, the interest in _tadio ¢ontinues to increasé by leaps and bounds. During 1920 sales of radio Sets_and parts totalled $2,000,000; by 1924 they reached $400,000,000; and it is tle opinion of experts that sales this year “will approximate 700,000,000 or more.

And after a glorious day, the roadside w nder leaves his pretty litter of empty eon tainers and wends hits wobbly way towards home, to the worry of fellow motorists and danger to himself and party. Complaints of women pedestrians and motorists brought Municipal cn- aetments to stop this kind of nuisanee on main highways, with the resuit that side thoroughfares such as the De Lair, Whatcom and Kilgard roads mre now becoming booze party resorts. Now complaints are coming in from residents of these sections and the municipality must meet the need of a more thorough police patrol of the entire frequented sections.
