“Magic Garden”
“The Magic Garden” a story from the pen of the late Gene Stratton, Porter and which has been made .into 2 photoplay has been called “the pastel of the screen.”” This remarkable picture may be seen at the Crystal Theatre next Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday when it begins 3 day run. The book was the last to be - written by the beloved authoress,” and she seems to have poured all the beauty of her spirit into it. When J. Leo Meehan Mrs: Porter's son-in-law -decided to put the story on the screea, he set about to find the most glorious garden in- California for its setting. A view of the place assures one that it was well chosen, for there is an enchantment about it that makes it really a magic garden. Into this delightful background moves a gathering of’the screen’s most gifted actors making live some .of the most hu‘man and lovable characters who have cver graced the pages of fiction. .
The Erskine Six (Could Climb
To prove that The Erskine Six could climb. even the steepest grades in ligh gedr, the Edgewod Garage, Studebaker distrihutors in Shamokin Pennsylvania recently drove an ' Erskine Six Custom Sedan to the highest pinnacle of Cameron Mountain near Shamokin. “/ _ The trip for a mile and a quarter was on a constant upgrade, ~averaging 150 in many places. = The roadway being rocky made th¢ climb tortuous but the Erskine Six negotiated the entire distance in high gear. - Aside from the exceptional hili climbing ability of the Erskine Six, this car is notable for its flashing acceleration 5 to 25 miles an hour in 8--1-2 seconds, and the smoociliness with which it attains high speed traveling at 60 miles an hour with marked roadibility. .

HOW A FARMING ‘ GOMMUNITY WAS ~ REBUILT AGAIN
Glass factories and coal mines had kept the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker and the bankey busy the year round in Point Marion Pennsylvania. Hired men left the farms followed by the farm owners tg get their: share of the attractive wages. ; o
Suddenly labor saving machinery was brought in to the old hand meth: od window glass factories. The coal business took- a drop and hundreds of people had to find new employment. Savings accounts dwindfed. Deposits of the two banks dropped off almost a million dollars. ]
“Bring in more industries,” was being sung at luncheon clubs all over the land, every town seemed to be advertising unlimited water supply, cheap fuel and free factory sites. Competition was keen and the reward doubtful.
The question came, *“Why not stimulate the argricultural pursuits of the community which have lain dormant so long.” Farm income might be increased and production costs lowered in many instances. The ftirst move of one of the banks was the purchase ot healthy chicks. These were furnished by the bank at wholesale to interested farmers, payment to be made by note payable in six months. The bark followed through by aiding in the dissemination of culling and ‘eeding knowledge and by helping to market the cockerels which in most instances paid the initia) cost ot all the chicks. .

When the pumpkins began to turn yellow, plans were laid for a great community exhibit.. Besides the poultry display, farm prodace . exhibits from the surrounding country wer9l entered. Altogether it made an impressive exhibit, bringing home the lesson to Point Marion people 'that, there were great -undeveloped opportunities within their own dooryards which they had overlooked. The annual exhibit will be continued in the future by the bank. A horse show is sponsored, better seed corn and seed potatoes are made available to the farmers for planting and the bank will continue to build agriculture in the community as a sound basis on which to work. “It will probably be some time before we shall see larger ‘fruits of our endeavors,” the banker says, “but we are looking ahead.ten to fifteen years.” |
THE NEW MENACE
Hiteh-hiking its way towards the nation’s corncrib, the European corn borer is threatening to destroy crops to the value of billions of dollars and chase skyward the cost of produc tion. If it worms its way into the Wabash and Mississippi Valleys, it can readily float. downstream, spread out and become more difficult to control. Proper cooperation of all con cerned will, no doubt, enable us to continue to grow corn profitably.— Agricultural , Bulletin, American Bankers Association.
A corn and apple show is to be an annual feature at a bank in Baltimore County, Maryland. Another banker has been able to get his county to “thinking corn,” over 600 farmers planting improved corn. Many other bankers in the state are giving moral support and funds to this work. ’

Deer Injure Trees.
Claims against the State of Massachusetts for reimbursement for damage caused to orchards by deer have led to an investigation by the Biological Survey of-the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, with a view of controlling further injury to young orchards from this cause'in New England. In Massachusetts alone the damage amounted to $15,000 in the past year. Deer injury represents- a serious. problem. It Has recently caused two large young orchards to be abandoned and ‘has prevented the developmnt of orcharding in otherwise favorablé section. Practical control is badly needed, but it is undesirable to injure or kill these valvable game animals. :
