YANKEES STILL
TRADING TO GET
PENNANT WINNER

New York, July 31.--The baseball
markets of Gotham and the Hub
have closed a busy week. First,
Harry Frazee, Une weil-knoWn trades
man of the Red SoX engaged IN a
game of barter with the owners of
The Yankees and besides the unusual
number of players exchanged, it was
reported that Frazee got something
ito boot"
In the deal the Yankees got third
'baseman-one Joe Dugan, considered
by them and others as one of the best
third basemen in the game. With
g1im came Elmer Smith, heralded as
"a hitter of no mean ability and a
fielder of some accomplishment.
To the Red Sox went Wilson Few
ster, a fast man to be used as third
baseman; Mitchell, young substi-
tute shortstop, and Outfielder Elmer
Miller.
Then the National league trades
men of Boston and New York got
busy and Hugh McQuillan, a young
pitcher with great promise, came to
the Giants, who gave the Braves a
Substantial sum-" said to be in six
figures; Fred Toney, veteran with
a great record; Larry Benton, a
young pitcher sent to the Memphis
club by the Giants, and Walter Hou-
aitran, left-handed pitching star
from Middlebury college in Vermont.
In order to engineer the deal, the
Giants sent Cecil A. Causey, a relief
pitcher, to the indianapolis club of
the American association and ordered
Pat Shea, who was sent to Indianap-
Oils under an optional agreement, to
report to the Memphis club.
McQuillan and Toney were to re-

WATER HYAC|NTHS
MAKE. GOOD STOCK
FEED SAY EXPERTS
Louisiana Men Claim a
Process for Using the
Terrible Pest

Evidently the lakes and rivers out
in Louisiana are cursed with water
hvacinths as are the lakes and
streams of Florida, but the curse
seems to have inspired effort to re-
lieve the situation, according to a
story printed in The Rice Belt Jour
nal, of Welsh, La, which says:
It will be of great interest to peo-
pie all over the south to know that
an invention is being perfected that
may result in the effective destruc-
ton of the water hyacinth, which is
growing menace to navigation in
every stream in the south, and also
that this menace may be turned into
very valuable and useful product.
The honor of bringing these impor-
tant inventions and processes to the
present stage OF development belongs
to Messrs. Monroe Davis, A. R. Ar
ceneaux and J. E. Lewis, residents of
Welsh and Roanoke.
Patents are now pending on lily
destroying and the curing devices,
fully covering all claims, and prelim-
inaries for their demonstration are
being made.
By those who are interested in
navigation or irrigation projects the
Importance of this work will be cas-
lily comprehended. Despite all the
work the government is doing for the
destruction of the hyacinth the
streams are gradually filling up to
such an extent that within a very few
years there will be no such thing as
navigation, unless something is done
for their destruction.
The invention of Messrs. Davis
Arceneaux and Lewis, for the de-
struction of the lilies, appears to be
the ideal thing. 1t is simple in con-
struction, positive in effect and can
be operated at reasonable cost.
Briefly described, it consists of a
floating barge equipped on the for
ward end with knives which cut into
the lallies ahead of an arrangement
of rakes which draw the lalies onto

How Fred Teney
Learned to Drap
'Em Daid at Bat
TBy Associated Press)

New York, July 31.-Fred Teney,
veteran pitcher who figured in the
Boston Braves-New York Giants
trade Of yesterday, got his start in
life with a pile of rocks and another
of tin cans
The Man Mountain" as Fred has
come to be known in baseballdom
grew into strapping manhood in the
picturesque mountains of Tennessee
Down in the hills they don't have
enough level ground for baseball
diamond and to this day the game is
in many sections. unknown. And sc
it was in Freds section.
But the mountain folk have THEN
sports-horsebac stunts, and va.
rious other games. When Fred was
a boy he and his fellows played a
game called "drap 'em daid." This
consisted OF placing tin cans, or bot
ties, when such things could be had
on sticks stuck on the mountainside
and throwing rocks about the size OF
"a mountaineer's fist at them. Every
.feIloT had certain number OF
,''hesveS" and to the winner all 9TH
Ter comps titors gave so many rounds
lOf rifle ammunition
] They say Fred kept his whole fam
lily supplied with cartridges.
So one day, as the story goes, d
&"furriner" from Winchester, Ky, Wis
Tilted up Fred's way. He saw Fred
'pIay "drap EN- daid" and hurried
back to town with the story.
So fred went to Winchester, start
ed throwing baseballs over the plate
and was given job.
And now. down in Fred's home
country, whenever they get hold of a
newspaper telling that he's won a
,game, they say:
lie drapped EN- daid."

ST. LOUIS CLUBS
HANG ON GR|MLY
FOR LEAGUE LEAD
INV Associated presaI

New York, July 31.-The pennant-
chasing St. Louis Browns, without the
services of George Sisler and Hank
SEVERED, but with able hurting by
wright and Ken Williams 25th home
run, have moved into first place
again. Their fellow citizens, the
Cardinals, nosed out Robnson's
Dodgers and gained length or the
Giants, who dropped their second
straight contest to the Pittsburgers.
The upward movement of the
Brcwns was due to the defeat of the
Yankees by the White Sox, 6 to 5, as
well as their own 4-to-1 victory over
the Duganless Red Sox Waite Hoyt,
the Yankees 1922 star, was ineffec-
tive in six innings against the Chica-
goans, who found his delivery for -
hits.
Ty Cobb had another good day at
bat, and 50 did his men, defeating
the Athletics, 7 to 2. Cleveland, with
Uhle in hurting form and his team
mates in a batting mood, won from
Washington, II to 5.
Pittsburg home runs again proved
the undoing of the Giants. Max Ca
rey, who drove for the circuit on two
occasions Saturday, duplicated his
feat and Russell, another Saturday
home runner, added another 10 his
string. Besides, Morrison was in
better pitching form than Douglas.
In Brokolyn the Cardinals took adj
vantage of couple Of inflied hobbies

In that condition they may be ~ara-
ed hack into the stream and will go
70 the bottom, where they do no
harm.
Their second invention covers the
process of curing the crushed lilies
and converting them into a product
which may be used in feeding ami
mails.
A number of analyses made recent
lv of the cured lilies shows them to
be superior to alfalfa hay in feeding
quality. This test, of course, refers
to the portion remaining after the 80
or more per cent of water has been
removed.
Just how important this last dis
covery may be has not dawned upon
the people. The fact that such a
menace may be turned into prod
uct more valuable than alfalfa opens
an avenue of unlimited revenue.
There is no such thing as crop fail
ure with the hyacinth and the cost
of production is nothing.
The proposition looks so good from
every angle that a number of Cal
casieu business men and capitalists
headed by Herbert Bayless, secretary
of the Lake Charles Chamber of
Commerce, have become interested in
the devices and processes to such an
extent that they have volunteered to
put thin through preliminary tests
at an expense Of approximately forty
thousand dollars. This will include a
practical feeding test of the finished
product, which will probably be made
at the Louisiana experimental sta
ton where the results can be correct
ly observed and tabulated.
These men are ready and finan-
cially able to finance a company to
put the lilly killing and curing proc
esses to work in neighboring streams
just as soon as the tests are made.
Should the cured lilly product
prove as valuable as present indica-
tions seem vast wealth will be re-
leased from the lakes, streams and
marshes of south Louisiana, greater
than the cotton, sugar cane or rice
crops of the highlands.
