It all started when a teenage boy from a farming vil-lage in Southern France came to America looking foran opportunity. It was 1908 when Victor Barbéarrived in New Orleans, after which in 1910, his wifeto be, Lucie Gollentz left Northern France andarrived in New Orleans. They met and got married.

Together, they bought some dairy cows and rentedland in the Uptown area of New Orleans. The areawas referred to as “Cow Patch Alley”, said LaurentBarbé, Jr. By 1918, Victor and his wife, noticed theWestwego area was growing rapidly so they pur-chased a tract of land there and moved their barn andcows across the river by ferry to start selling milkfrom their new home.

Soon the Great Depression hit. Victor did what hecould to save his land. He sold his cows and did oddjobs. It wasn’t until many years later that Victor’sson, Laurent or “Larry” as he was called, who had asixth grade education, went to war and while he wasrecovering in a hospital from injuries, found a bookand educated himself on dairy science. When hereturned, he decided it was time for the family to getback into the dairy business.

“My father built his first building in 1945. Hebought a pasteurizer, my grandfather bought thecows, sold the milk to my father and he started bot-tling pasteurized milk,” said Laurent Barbé, Jr.

From the time they were in diapers feeding thecalves with a baby bottle, Larry's two son's LaurentJr. and Victor were always working in the dairy. Inthe late ‘60s, early ‘70s, Laurent, Jr. and his brother,Victor along with their father became even moreactive in running the day to day operations. By themid ‘80s, the two sons had taken over the company100% and built it to become the largest dairy in theNew Orleans area.

Laurent’s wife, Susan, says her husband, wasknown as the “milk man” around the city. “I canremember him working in the plant doing anythingthat was needed, as well as driving the trucks andmaking deliveries. He and his brother did what it tookto make Barbe’s the business it became.” She added,“He would make such good friends with the cus-tomers. Everybody liked him. The cafeteria ladies atthe schools he delivered to would constantly give himtreats such as cinnamon buns and he would snack onthem while making his deliveries.”

For anyone who grew up in the New Orleans area,the cow jumping over the moon logo for Barbe’s is afamiliar one. In the early ‘50s, one morning whileLaurent "Larry Sr." was making deliveries on VictoryDr. in Westwego, he noticed a broken baby bed in atrash pile next to the driveway of a home where hewas making a delivery. On the head board wasmounted a plastic cow jumping over the moon. Hewas instantly inspired, so he took it out of the trashand decided to make it the dairy’s logo. In 1966, a1200 lb., 20’ long and 15’ high dairy cow mascotnamed Betsie Barbé was introduced. She became afixture in parades. Today, she is still used for grandopenings and other events although her parade daysare over.

Over time, Laurent and his brother realized theirown children did not want to take over the familybusiness so the two brothers made the difficult deci-sion to sell the company to Southern Foods Group outof Dallas, Texas in 1996. Barbe’s is now a part ofDean Foods, the largest dairy group in the UnitedStates. Laurent, Jr. stayed on as general manager andcontinued to run Barbe’s until 2004 when Dean

Baton Rouge, LA (May 23,2014) – All cotton planted in thestate, including cotton grown inornamental gardens and othernon-traditional locations must beregistered with the state to bemonitored for possible boll wee-vil presence. State boll weevileradication law provides that any-one who intends to plant cottonfor non-commercial purposesmust receive prior permission

from the Commissioner ofAgriculture and Forestry MikeStrain, D.V.M.

“The state is officially boll wee-vil-free but we must monitor allcotton grown in the state to pro-tect Louisiana’s cotton industry,”Strain said. “Boll weevil traps areset along the edges of cottonfields, but gardeners outside tra-ditional cotton growing areasmay plant cotton, for example, to

spin their own thread for fabric.Gardeners may also grow cottonfor its ornamental appeal. If so,we have to place a boll weeviltrap nearby to be sure we pre-serve our boll weevil-free status.”

Historically, the boll weevil hasbeen cotton’s most destructivepest. All cotton-growing stateshave eradication programs.

Cotton remains one ofLouisiana’s leading crops.

Although only 126,647 acres ofcotton were harvested in 2013,record yields were achieved andthe total value of the crop was setat almost $148 million.

For more information regardingplanting of non-commercial orornamental cotton, please contactthe Louisiana Boll WeevilEradication Program office at225-922-1338 [email protected].

Foods decided to merge sister company Brown’s Dairy. Now,Laurent serves as general sales manager.

“I feel fortunate to be a part of this company. The Barbé tra-dition of production and sales continues to thrive throughBrown’s Dairy.” In fact, you still see the cow jumping over themoon logo, Barbe’s branding on some packaging and Betsie isstill rolling around town.

Fast forward to the spring of 2013, Laurent says he got a callfrom the Westwego Historical Society about honoring his fam-ily's business. He says it was a dream come true. "Just like ourcow jumping over the moon logo, I felt like I was over the

moon to have us recognized in such a special and permanentway. Our family was quite proud and our father would havebeen ecstatic."

Now, the Westwego Historical Museum houses a display inhonor of Barbe's Dairy, which was the oldest established fami-ly business in the city of Westwego. Besides the display, theyalso honored them with the official Christmas ornament for2013 featuring Barbe's Dairy which can be purchased at themuseum.

The display can be viewed at the Westwego HistoricalMuseum located at 275 Sala Avenue in Westwego.

BATON ROUGE, La. – Whenfall weather is dry, and winter isas cold and as long as it was thisyear, the combination spellsproblems for the crawfish indus-try.

That scenario put this year’sseason about one month behind,said LSU AgCenter aquacultureresearcher Robert Romaire.

“When you get behind, it’sreally hard to catch up,” Romairesaid. “We lost a month of grow-ing this season due to weather.”

Because crawfish growth istemperature-dependent, thosemonths from November throughFebruary are important to sizeand availability.

“It was cold longer this yearthan we usually expect,” Romairesaid.

LSU AgCenter aquacultureresearcher Ray McClain, whostudies crawfish at the RiceResearch Station near Crowley,said this has definitely been anatypical year for pond-raisedcrawfish.

“Some crawfish are still beingharvested, and as is typical, har-

vesting will continue in thoseponds that are catching as long asit is profitable,” McClain said.

The recent dry spell has causedsome crawfish farmers to endtheir seasons, while others arelooking toward the AtchafalayaBasin for the wild crop thatcomes in this time of the year.

“It’s possible that a period ofcool, rainy weather could prolongthe season some,” McClain said.But hot, dry weather spells theend of this year’s pond crop.

LSU AgCenter and Sea Grantspecialist Greg Lutz said yearsago nobody really expected tofind boiled crawfish during win-ter, but now, if you don’t mindthe size, you can find boiledcrawfish during the coldermonths.

“It’s a matter of economics,”Lutz said. “If the farmer can jus-tify going out to run the traps,and he can get a good enoughprice, he will get crawfish.”

When the weather cooperatesin the fall, it is possible to findboiled crawfish as early asThanksgiving, which was

unheard of just 10 years ago,Romaire said.

“During the past decade, peo-ple have been demanding andgetting crawfish aroundThanksgiving, but it hasn’talways been so,” Romaire said.“You didn’t expect to get themuntil around March.

Normally, the crawfish seasonwould be down to the last fewweeks by now, Lutz said. “Butwith the season starting off slow-er and the wild catch just nowreally coming in, crawfish couldbe available for several moreweeks before they start burrow-ing for the summer.”

One of the problems encoun-tered by crawfish farmers whenthe season starts slow is many areactually rice farmers first andcrawfish farmers second,Romaire said. “When it’s time toplant rice, they can’t wait.”

Lutz said the crawfish knowwhat they are supposed to do andwhen they are supposed to do it.

“These crawfish have beendoing this for hundreds of mil-lions of years. When the days

start to get longer and the waterstarts to get warmer, they knowthat summer is coming soon, sothey’ve got to go find a place tospend the summer, and they’ll

start burrowing down,” Lutz said.The researchers agree that the

wild crawfish coming in now areabout the same quality as pond-raised were in March.

BATON ROUGE, La. –Horse owners should preparefor tropical weather instead ofwaiting until the last minutejust before a storm, advisedLSU AgCenter equine special-ist Neely Walker.

“Planning is the key to keep-ing your horses safe,” she said.

Planning can be done withneighbors and surroundingfarm owners to identifyresources in the area. “Thisincludes evacuation routes, sta-bles, feed availability andemergency kits,” she said.

Waiting until an evacuationis not the time to get a horseaccustomed to entering a horsetrailer, Walker said, and sherecommended practicing thatprocedure. Also, vaccinesshould be current.

“If you are planning on evac-uating with your horse, leave early enough to prevent traf-fic delays,” she said. “Keep in mind that during evacuation,management practices may change, so monitor your horsesclosely for dehydration and signs of intestinal distress.”

If the decision is made not to evacuate, Walker recom-mends:

– A minimum of two weeks supply of hay and feed stored

in waterproof containers kept in the highest and driest areapossible.

– At least 10 gallons of water per horse per day. Plasticbarrels with secure lids can be filled and kept near animals.

– Preparing an emergency barn kit and keeping it in asecure location with a light and batteries, rope, chain sawwith fuel and oil, handsaw, nails, screws, spray paint andfencing materials.

– Notifying neighbors and fam-ily where you will be during thestorm.

– Compiling records for eachanimal, including a photo of eachhorse with a family member,medical documents, tattoos,microchip information, brands,scars and any other permanentidentification, owner informationand your veterinarian’s contactinformation. The records shouldbe kept in a secure location thatcan be accessed after a storm.Consideration should be given tosending the material to a friend ina location not expected to beaffected by a weather event.

– Attaching identification to allhorses, including fetlock identifi-cation tags and halter tags.Telephone numbers can be spray-painted on a horse, and a water-proof bag containing owner infor-mation can be tied to a horse’smane.

– Providing hay and water dur-ing a storm.

– Removing possible hazards from an area where horseswill be kept. If outside, allow horses access to higherground.

“If you are not prepared, being displaced is difficult tomanage,” Walker said. “You may be able to get back toyour property, but it may not be safe for weeks.”
