“"In the East case [East v. Pan American Petroleum Corp., 168 So.2d 426 (La. App.3d Cir. 1964)], supra, we held that no hard and fast rule can be laid down for the measurement of damages caused by the removal of dirt from the property of another. 15 Am.Jur. 515, Verbo Damages, Sec. 107. In some cases the proper measure is the cost of replacing the dirt on plaintiff's property. Joseph v. Netherton Company, [La.App.] 136 So.2d 556 (3rd Cir. 1962). In others, the measure of damages is the sale value in place of the dirt removed. DeHart v. Continental Land and Fur Company, 205 La. 569 , 17 So.2d 827 ; Amite Gravel & Sand Company v. Roseland Gravel Company, 148 La. 704 , 87 So. 718 ; Derbofen v. T. L. James & Company, 148 So.2d 795 , 1 A.L.R.3d 793 (4th Cir. 1962). Other methods also may be proper under the circumstances." 179 So.2d at 466 .”
