The Farm and The Farmer v By William R. Sanborn

George W. Bowen, of Crete, Ind., says that they have been rushing harvest work up his way and that all wheat will be in shock by Wednesday or Thursday, unless rain prevents. "The crop will be nothing extra, as it stands thin, mostly, with here an there a better than average field," said Mr. Bowen. He says they have had considerable rain in the past two or three weeks and that oats are looking fine and promise a fair to good crop. Farmers have been bringing in a little corn for which me is now paying 73 cents per cwt. Old wheat is not moving and no price has been set on new grain, that to depend on quality and the going bids on date of delivery. Asked as to chinch bugs or other pests, Mr. Bowen stated that farmers were making no complaints whatever, on that score. Watch Out for Bugs. It is to be sincerely hoped that the chinch bug invasion will not be wide spread and that little damage will Anally result to oats and corn. But in cases of this kind, "it is dangeroub to feel safe," as one farmer put it, and he was out in his oats and corn at sun-up on Tuesday making careful inspection. This should be a part of the daily routine just now, as the chinch bug' doesn't advertise his route, but drops in where be is least welcome and where entirely unexpected. Our re cent stories of the advent and means of disposal of this pest have given our readers the only feasible plan of action, until the bug develops wings. While rawling, before he starts flying, he is easy of control, comparatively speaking. Not Fond of Clover. Ripened wheat or rye is not exactly to the taste of the chinch bug; nor will he molest clover or other legumes, some authorities tell us. He feasts on juicy, green and growing things and it is surprising how quickly he will dispose of an acre of corn or growing oats. If not promptly caught in the act he will make short work ot the entire field. Bushel Weights. The following weights per bushel are used by the United States department of Agriculture in all estimates of crop productions: Apples, 48 pounds; beans (dried), 60 pounds; corn (shelled, 56 pounds; corn on the cob, 70 pounds, oats, 32 pounds; rye. 56 pounds; clover seed. 60 poupnds; tomatoes, 56 pounds; grain sorghum, 56 pounds; onions, 57 pounds; peanuts, 22 pounds; potatoes, 60 pounds; sweet potatoes, 56 pounds; timothy seed, 45 pounds; wheat, 60 pounds. Farm Life. Check Was for $28.75. Of course you discovered there was a mistake somewhere, for "a roan cow as big as a box car, with a lustv calf at side," would scarcely bring $2,875, and surely not in Dayton. But like every one who read the item the printer didn't believe $28.75 to be a fair price for that cow and calf, so he set it $2,875 to be sure of getting the figure high enough. Mr. Powell, at Castine. R. W. Powell, elevator man at Castine. Ohio, says there is a lot of 15 to 20 bushel wheat in his vicinity, "unless appearances are mighty deceiving, as they often are, you know." The wheat harvest will be over in ample time for the farmers tp take a day off on the well known Fourth, will be be over this week in fact, said Mr. Pow ell. " We had rain in time to benefit oats and pastures," said Mr. Powell, "but at that we shall have a short Wanted to Buy EAR CORN and WHEAT OMER G.

crop of oats. Old wheat is pretty well

cleaned out around here, and would ; bring $1.15 today. We are paying 50 cents for com. Haven't heard a single farmer complain of weevil or chinch bugs, so far." No price will be set on wheat at the Castine elevator until farmers are ready to weigh in. Prices on new crop wheat are likely to change from day to day, depending on various factors, at all country stations. Wayne Threshing Prices. The threshermen of Wayne county have agreed on what they consider fair prices, as follows: For threshing wheat, 8 cents per bushel; for oats, 5 cents, and on rye the charge will be 12 cents. These figures are in line with those to be charged in the seven counties embraced in this district, with the single exception, we are told, that wheat will be threshed at cents in one county. Eight cents is the top figure in the seven counties, says Arthur McMahon. It is expected that some wheat will be threshed in Wayne county during the coming week and shortly thereafter all rigs will get into action. Jacksonburg farmers report refreshing rains which were of consider-1 able benefit to clover and oats and of some benefit to wheat in the fill. Farmers in both the Cambridge City and Hagerstown districts say that the weather man has been very obliging of late, although somewhat persnickerty earlier in the season. Paying $1.20 for Wheat. Wm. Hollinger, of Clarke's Station, in Darke county, Ohio, reports paying $1.20 for wheat and says that there is some coming in right along, also that farmers are letting go of corn at 75 cents per cwt. He says there is still quite a little old wheat on the farms which farmers are more willing to sell now that a fair crop is being harvested. "We have some pretty good wheat in this vicinity," said Mr. Hollinger, "and thtre is a much better prospect for oats, since the recent rains." Pig Club Work Prospers in Darke County, Report GREENVILLE, O., June 28. Pig club work is prospering in Darke county, according to a report of the

The Theatres

WASHINGTON. It so happened that the last scene in the Realart picture, "A Private Scandal," now playing at the Washington Theatre, was scheduled to be "shot" before any of the others, although the opening scene was taken soon after. But how varied and far apart were the two! The opening scene takes place in a little ruined village in France, while the closing one fades out on a sunset on the Pacific coast of America. But peaceful as are these scenes, the events that occurred in the life of little Jeanne Millette in the interval between them were such as to almost drive her to despair. May McAvoy of "Sentimental Tommy" fame, plays the part of Jeanne, supported by an able cast. MURRAY Some ridiculous answers are given by actors when asked to tell their reasons for liking certain pictures, but it remained for Raymond Hatton, Goldwyn character actor, to liken a motion picture to a hair tonic. . The picture was "Bunty Pulls the Strings," now playing at the Murray Theater. Mr. Hatton says it saved him from being bald. "Absolutely the best hair tonic I ever applied," insisted the actor. "In Portraying 'Weelum' I was obliged to part my hair down the middle of the back of my head, and brush it forward over my ears. I had often heard that if a man changed his manner of hair combing it would stop falling hair. It was the first time I had an opportunity to try out the theory. I'll say it works! Never lost a hair after the first day on the picture!" "Bunty Pulls the Strings" is a Reginald Barker Production. MURRETTE It would be difficult to imagine a more difficult role for a hero than that of a waiter. People just naturally don't connect waiters and romance together. Yet Conway Tearle in "Society Snobs," the latest Selznick picture, now showing at the Murrette theater, invests even this menial characterization with real personality. The foibles and absurdities of society are pictured by the merciless pen of Lewis Allen Browne, who has a particularly happly faculty of driving right to the heart of things. The dangers to which ambitious mothers heedlessly expose their daughters are j viviaiy set lorm. uorgeous settings tare plentiful and it is easily seen that nouvea riche. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE While the bill at the Murray this first half is entertaining, the trio of acts does not form as strong a bill aa patrons have been enjoying. The headliner offers a variety of singing and dancing numbers. Three girls and two young men compose the j personnel. Vocal selections by one of the young ladies meets with greater , approval than do the solo or duet dances.

dancing team. Their numbers are the feature of the act. Colorful costumes are to be found as part of the elaborate wardrobe. Most thrilling are the acrobatical feats performed by Harry Tsuda. Balancing upon chairs mounted precariously high above the stage seems easy for him. A slip and he's gone. Yet he comes through smiling. Hugh Johnson, the "Comedy Conjurer," keeps his audience guessing while he runs through a series of card and billiard ball mystics. True to form, the little deceits amuse and worry the outsiders. "How does he do it?" Ask Hugh. "Bunty Pulls the Strings" is the five reel film feature. MARVIN. COMING HERE SOON. "I always like to do a picture written by an author of experience," declares Sam Wood, director for Paramount, "and in Elinor Glyn we surely have a writer who knows life and can describe it with great verisimilitude." "The Great Moment" is the title of the story which Elinor Glyn has written for Paramount and which serves as a vehicle for Gloria Swanson. Mrs. Glyn is now at the Lasky studio and will work in the closest co-operation with Mr. Wood in the production. The . photoplay is said to afford many wonderful scenes in some of the gayest spots of the European capitals, with rich coloring and situations that are distinctly forceful. Develops Picture Sense. "I have had many talks with the author," Mr. Wood continued, "and I find that she has the 'picture sense' keenly developed. She knows life and can describe it so clearly that there is no doubt; nothing that has to be supplied. I am satisfied that in this picture we have a wonderful plot, stirring incidents, much human interest, which I think will be received as a really great production. Mrs. Glyn is so well informed, so talented and withal so conversant with people and their habits of thought that she has supplied a story that will not only suit admirably Miss Swanson's qualities but also contains all the elements of interest that are essential.
