BASEBALL TOMORROW.
Houma to Cross Bats With Donald
sonville on Local Diamond.

In an exciting and spectacular
game, which lasted twelve innings,
the Souma hard-hitting team defeat
ed Donaldsonville by score of to
4, on the formers grounds last Sun
day. The game was close one and
was a tie up to the eleventh IN
ming. By streak of luck, the Oyster
town managed to make one run IN
the twelfth inning which gave them
the game. The game was witnessed
by fair-sized crowd of fans and was
very much enjoyed by all.
Tomorrow the two teams will meet
on the local diamond. Flush with
their victory of last Sunday the
Houma boys are coming with the In
tention of administering a second
drubbing to the home boys, but the
latter are determined to prevent this
humiliation and nothing short Of a
complete shut out will satisfy Mana
ger Melancon's classy nine. There
fore the lads from the Oyster town
are promised the time of their lives
when they confront the thoroughly
aroused home club tomorrow. The
teams are about evenly matched and
the game promises to be a hotly con-
tested one from beginning to end. A
large number of fans and roOters will
be on hand to witness the battle
royal. The batteries will be: Houma,
Everett and Seebt; Donaldsonville,
Switzerland, Robert and Vardin.

handle the animals and insures that
each one will have more equal
chance at the feed trough. 1t renders
the animals less dangerous to attend
ants and prevents them from goring
one another in the feed lot or in tran
sit to market. The practice of de-
horning is almost universal so far as
high-grade beef steers are concerned.
1t is often desirable to dehorn the
heifers as well as the steers, espe-
cially when they are to be fed in
trouChs for part of the year. Calves
may be dehorned when few days old

Disease-Free Potatoes Give Treble
Yield.

Two lots of Triumph seed potatoes
were planted in parallel rows on Feb.
22. One lot was affected with mosaic
disease, while the other was prac-
tically free Of this disease. Seven
weeks later 80 hills of each we1E dug.
The disease-free lot gave over three
times as many potatoes (by weight)
as those affected with mosaic disease.
Unfortunately one cannot tell
whether potato seed is affected with
this disease by it's appearance,
says Mr. Tiebout. "Our early va
riety, the Triumph, is very commonly
affected. AS the mosaic disease is
carried over in the seed from year
to year, the only way to prevent or
reduce the disease is by planting tu
bers from healthy plants. It is oft
times hard to get healthy seed
through regular trade channels, but
with constant demand for better
seeds the dealers will soon realize
that they will have to handle the
best.
"Certified seed is grown under the
agricultural colleges in the north,
where seed merchants get most of
the potato seed and usually is quite
free of this disease. Ask your deal
er to get this certified seed and Of
fer it for sale next year. Dealers
wanting information relative to
where this seed can be procured
should write to the horticultural de-
partment of the State University,
Baton Rouge"

DAM BEING GRAVELED.
Dixie to Be Used for Traffic Pending
Repairs to Bridge.

Permission having been obtained
from the Lafourche and Atchafalaya
Levee Boards to gravel the dam
across the bayou in this city and to
use same for general traffic pending
repairs to be made to the bridge, the
work was begun early this week un-
der the supervision Of Thos D. Cox,
the efficient supervisor of Road Dis
trict No. 1. The dam and the ap-
proaches at each end were made a
little wider so as to permit cars and
trucks to meet with ease, and after
being properly levelled the laying of
the gravel was begun. The gravel
is being laid twelve feet wide by
three inches thick, and with good
weather Mr.. Cox believes that he can
finish the work by the middle Of next
week. The bridge will then he
closed altogether and the repairs be-
gun under the supervision and direc-
ton of competent bridge engineer,
and should be completed within the
next sixty days The exact nature
of the repairs to be made have not
yet been determined upon, but it is
said that the iron frame work is in
good shape and will require but little
repair, and that it will be. necessary
to replace the wood sills with new
ones and to add substantial braces at
each end; this, with new floor, will,
it is generally believed, make the
structure safe and serviceable for
r.any more years.

Death of Mrs. A. M. Vega

Mrs. Antoine NJ. Vega, nee Marie
Vega, a. native and resident Of tht
parish Of Assumption for nearly her
whole life, died at her home in New
Orleans, Thursday evening at 6 o'clock
after long illness. Deceased was
daughter of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
Raphael Vega, and resided with her

they removed to New Orleans. She
was kind-hearted and charitable

brought here yesterday, arriving on
the 2:20 p. m. Texas and Pacific

in the cemetery at that place. Be

CONVENTION KILLS SUBMISSION

CONVENTION KILLS SUBMISSION
The Constitutional Convention by
a vote of 81 to 56 yesterday killed
the Barret ordinance providing for
the submission of the constitution to
vote of the people. This was done
Notwithstanding that public senti-
ment throughout the state was
overwhelmingly in favor of submis-
sion.
The work of the convention has
proven grfat disappointment to the
is geaa sfles sa ed
were given chance to express their
opinion of the new organic law they
would vote strongly for its rejection.
This fact having been brought forci-
bly, to the attention of the del
egates, has no doubt been in
strumental in influencing many
Of them who would not have
the work of the body set at naught,
to decide against submission. The
people who voted in favor of hold
ing the convention and who elected
delegates to represent them in that
body, under the belief and with the
firm conviction that an exemplary
basic law would be framed and then
submitted to them for their ratifca-
ton, will now be denied the privi-
lege of expressing their opinion of
the labor of their servants.
1t is safe to predict that the dis
appointment of the electorate will
find expression at the polls in future
elections when delegates to the con-
vention are up for office. The Ascen-
sion delegates split on the subject,
Weber voting for and Picard against
submission.

Reduced Round-Trip Fares

Perhaps one of the most welcome
items of news that has been given tt
the readers of The Chief in some
time, is contained in the ad of the
Texas and Pacific Railway Company
appearing on the first page in this
issue, in which the company an.
nounces special reduced round-trir
fares on Sundays, beginning tomor-
row. The reduced fare will apply to
Jail trips from New Orleans westbound
to points up to Adds and to New Or
leans from all stations between New
Roads and Waggaman The company
is to be congratulated upon this splen-
did move which will mean much to
the general public. These special
rates proved very popular when they
were in vogue before the war and
were taken advantage of by a large
number of people. 1t goes without
saying that their establishment will
prove source Of pleasure to the
people and profit to the company, as
it will mean much larger volume of
passenger traffic on Sundays. The
round trip fare from Donaldsonville
to New Orleans will be only 1929.
