Home Place.

A double victory vas won by the
Home Place team last Sunday on their
diamond. The first game was played
with Pointe-a-la-H ache and the Home
Place boys did excellent work. Raoul
Favret the pitcher for Pointe-a-la-
Hache pitched a good game. The score
was l6 to 4. The second game was
played with the gay Daisies They
withered again and it was just like
plucking them from their stems. The
score was % to 8. Home Place is an
ticipating a good game next Sunday,
for the Jesuit Benders will journey
down to play them.

Beautiful Cucumbers.

If it is proper to apply the quality beautiful: to cucumbers,
then the product Of the Bell Cow Farm, owned by Mr.. John Meyer
in the Woodlawn tract in the second ward, should be SO described.
have had the pleasure of receiving from'Mr. John Meyer, Jr,
several specimens of the finest cucumbers we have ever seen.
Their deep dark green color and their handsome and symmetrical
shape all combine to show the great skill utilized in the production
of such excellent vegetable. There is manifest in them the many
days of weary work in the way Of preparation Of the land, the tor
cling Of the young plants, their transplanting in the open under the
.balmy sunny skies of Southern Louisiana, all of which together
give US splendid fruits of the soil, which we believe, cannot be du-
picated anywhere else on earth. We should all be tempted to go
into similar culture, but it does involve a tremendous lot OF hard
work and while we all say that we are willing to work very hard,
yet evidently some of us wont work as hard as others and very few
of US ever produce any such cucumbers as these that we have just
received from the Bell Cow Farm.

their twofold business Of rairoading and coal mining, in such a

fearlessly these operators in high finance defy the laws Of the

Vinol is not a patent medicine-but a

In this natural manner, Vinol creates
