ARCHBISHOP RYAN'S
FUNERAL AT BIJOU
GREAT PROCESSION OF cATHo-
Lie CHURCH MEN SHOWN IN
MOVING PICTURES AT THE
RlJou FOR THE FIRST HALF OF
THIS WEEK.

For the first half of the week, the
Bijou have secured the pictures of the
funeral procession of the great Arch
bishop Ryan at Philadelphia, held re-
Gently. The striking scenes, the great
crowds. the imposing ceremonies are
all shown in detail. This is a picture
that will appeal to all. and especially
those of the Catholic faith.
The second picture is The Lost Rib
bon, and is one OF western atmos-
phere Jennie, the daughter of hardy
pioneer cattleman is admired by all Of
her fathers cowboys. but there Ia one
only that the pleasant smile falls up
on, and that is Dick, the best one of
the bunch Seeing pretty piece Of
ribbon with which Jennie has adorned
herself, Dick suggests that she divide
1t, she to keep one piece and he the
other. The same morning on which
this ribbin episode occurred the parents
Of Jennie are called away to see a
sick relative. Returning to the house
after the departure of her parents she
loses her piece of the ribbon which Is
picked up by Frank the rejected
sutton. Knowing that Dick is favored
by Jennie. Frank shows him the piece
of ribbon and tells him that Jennie
gave 1t to him. That starts a quarrel
which is settled by the ranch boss
who tells them to take 1t to Jennie and
let her settle the dispute. While this
is going on the Snake Indians attack
the cabin and Jennie and her young
brother resist them. The COWBOYS
arrive just as the Indians break in
the door. A sharp encounter follows
and the Indians are driven away. After
Jennie and the young brother are res
cued, Frank realizes his false position
and confesses to Dick that he found
the ribbon and hands over to Dick.
The vaudeville stunt for the first
half of the week is the celebrated
Faust Trio. who come direct from
the Orpheum circuit. Come this week
by all means to the Bijou. the show
that Is always good; no Off weeks at

What ARE YOUR
BRAINS FOR?
PROF. w. c. PALMER OF THE a.
C. DISCUSSES BRAINS AND
THEIR USE IN THE WORLD OF
AGRlcuLTURE-DoEs FARMER
USE LIBRARY.

What are brains for?" says Prof. w.
G. Palmer, of the A. G. in a recent
bulletin. He then says:
at has been well said that man
from his eyes down is worth $3.50
day, while from his eyes up he is
worth up to hundreds of dollars day.
The reason that so many people are
not worth more is that they do not
use their brains, being content to fol-
low methods and practices that have
been handed down. that perhaps do not
meet present day conditions, at any
rate cannot meet them as well as what
has been worked out lately. 1t is
necessary to find out the best that is
known on any subject that one has in
hand; then with that as a starting
point, work out new methods and
practices. Often times one finds a
farmer who does not have a good Ii
brary of agricultural books and does
not even take agricultural papers, and
no one had more time to read and
study.
GO into the doctors or lawyers
office and you will find a library cost
ing from $500 to $4,000 or more. and
several medical or law journals. When
a difficult case comes up they ram
sack their libraries, going through the
books that treat of the particular sub
ject in hand and the journals. Then
they will call in fellow doctors or
lawyers. They do not propose to take
any chances that 1t lies within their
power to avoid. Does the farmer turn
to his library, to the agricultural pa
pers and TO the experiment station
bulletins when he has a problem? A
good many do. but why not more of
them? When crop Is to be grown.
the best that is known on the growing
of that crop should be brought into
play in preparing the soil, in selecting
the seed, in caring for the crop. When
stock is to be raised the best knowl-
edge available should be used In sell
Getting the stock. in breeding them, in
feeding them, in caring for them, and
in marketing them. An so on with the
different operations on the farm. This
Is where the man from the eyes up
comes in, and remember that 1t is this
kind of work that pays.
1.-THE farmer should have a library
containing the latest agricultural
books, the experiment station bulletins
and the agricultural papers. This will
bring into his home the best that Is
known on the different phases Of farm
ing One hundred dollars or $25
would make a pretty good start. And
Ii use was made of It. its teachings
applied to the different farm opera
tions, the returns would be several
times 500 greater each year than UNI
der the hit and miss plan. What would
be even more OF remuneration
would be the interest and satisfaction
that comes from work well done, from
being master of conditions. instead of
slaves to them. We like TO do what
we can do well. The farmer cannot
afford to take chances any more than
the doctor or lawyer. 1t will be his
own fault If he does. as the informa
ton Is to be had If he will simply work
his brains"
