ACCIDENTALLY SHOT
Shiner, Feb. 1- — While out
rabbit hunting- Monday after-
noon, John Dusek, the 17 year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. J. J.
Dusek had a very narrow es-
cape from instant death, when
his gun went off accidentally.
The bullet scraped the skin back
of the right ear, penetrated the
ear, following the ear tube and
lodged over the right temple,
just under the skin. No ill
effects were felt, except tem-
porary dizziness.* His physi-
cian removed the bullet and the
patient is all right, barring
complications- —Shiner Gazette

some farmers signing up their
contract to reduce their cotton
acreage, orders came from the
headquarters in Washington to
extend the period for signing
up till February 15th- The
minimum yield of lint per acre
of land admissible for reduc-
tion was lowered from 100
pounds to 75 lbs. To the end
of January approximately 1,300
contracts have been signed in
Lavaca Co., which is about
three ttmes the number of con-
tracts signed for plowing up
the 1933 crop. It is definite-
ly stated by C. A. Cobb, chief
of cotton section of the crop
reduction department, that
some kind of legislation to force
farmers to reduce the cotton
crop is not only likely but most
probable in the near future.
Our County Agent, Mr. J. M-
Parks urges the farmers who '"nVr °"n“y’
haven’t signed up yet to see
their district committeemen at
once, before it is too late. He
is highly pleased with the re-
sults so far in the reduction
campaign of Lavaca, but warns
those who haven’t responded to
the call, to prevent their get-
ting into trouble.
