PERIQUE TOBACCO GROW.
ING A PECULIARLY
LOUISIANA CROP
BATON ROUGE, La., Dec. 26.
In the parish of St. James, a short
way from New Orleans. Is a histor
ic and picturesque Industry, infin
itesimal in comparison with many
of the other bountiful agricultural
crops of the state, but which is pe
culiarly Loulsianinn. This Is the
Perique tobacco industry, alone in
the world.
First grown many years ago by
an Acadian whose name the to
bacco now bears, its cultivation
has been kept up ' continuously
ever since by direct lineal de
scendants of the original M. Peri
que. Cultivation Is confined to a very
small area on the banks of the
'MississlpDl, where a favorable
combination of soli and climate is
particularly adapted to Its growth.
This tobacco, which finds Its chief
use as a seasoner for mixtures, is
exceedingly strong, with a distinct
flavor and aroma. Not many more
than 500 acres are given over to
its growth.
Perique Is raised In much the
same manner as any other sun
tobacco, the land being properly
plowed over and the rows set
about five feet apart. The seed Is
sown early in January and replant
ed in March or April. The har
vester is done in July. The to

SUBSTITUTES FOR ENGLISH
TENNIS TERMS CRITICIZED
PAWS. Dec. 26 "I,ob." "smash."
and "drive.' as applied to tennis
are three words the translation of
which Into French has stumped
the French sporting writers In a
campnlrn to eliminate the English
vocabulary from their articles on
sport events.
The best they have been able to
find Is "ehnndelle" for lob, "eoun
de Lonnseur" for- drive and "ciupe
ecrase" for smash.
Jean Samazeullh, former cham
pion of France at tennis, takes ex
ception to the accuracy and prac
tlcablllt of the translation and In
en article in a sports weekly, asks
the players to ignore the scribes,
and especially to execute the shots
well on the courts, let the writers
rail them what thev wish.

PINCHED POCKETBOOK
CAUSES VIENNA TO
SHIFT MEAL HOURS
VIENNA, Dec. 28. A pinched
pocketbook Is responsible for a re
arrangement of the habits of the
best society people In Vienna, as
far as meals are concerned. Fam
ilies are trying to enjoy life as
much as possible on a small In
come and In order to take In
dances and music, have abolished
the set evening dinner.
Instead, tea Is now taken an hour
Inter, generally at six o'clock, so
that sons and daughters working
in the city can participate. Circles
of friends take this meal at each
others flats In turn, and there Is
dancing to wireless or the grema
phone until nine. This la follow
ed bv a "hot sausage" meal with
which horse-radish is served to
gether with any sandwiches left
over from tea.
The new custom Is considered
not onlv economical, but tends to
keep socletv In better condition
phvsleally, ladies preserving the
sllmness so necessary for present
day fashions.

WITH DEATH GOES MARKET
VALUE OF MOVIE STARDOM
HOLLYWOOD, Cal.. Dec. 26.
Why the public will pay money to
read a dead man's books, see a
dead man'a plays or hear a dead
man's music, and yet Invariably
will spurn the acting of a film star
who haa died, is a question which
perplexes motion picture produc
ers. Particularly puzzling It Is when
It Is considered that the average
film fan never sees the living body
of his favorite actor, but only the
reflection of that body upon the
screen. Yet when a screen cele
brity Is buried, his other self upon
the film 1b burled too. Just as ef
fectively. It seems, as If the actor
and his celluloid counterpart had
been boxeed In the same coffin.
When John Bunny, the popular
comedian of early movie days, died
during the height of his fame It
was accepted aa a foregone con
clusion by officials of Vltagraph.
Ihe company which had featured
him In scores of productions, that
his motion picture immortality waa
assured. His death they thought
was an opportunity to demonstrate
a great movie miracle the power
that Is in the films to make a man
live on beyond the grave, as real,
as lifelike to his audiences as if
he never bad died.
But the public dropped John Bun
ny with emphatic suddenness. His
company filmed Bunny's pictures
wero a drug on tne market. He
was dead: the papers had said ao;
and film fans declined to pay
money to aee the shadow of a man
scarcely any of them had ever seen
in the flesh. His pictures died
with him.
