The Kay Bee ranch, the child
Of Thos. H. Ince, manager and
master producer, has sprung into
prominence in very brief time.
1t covers approximately 1000
acres, with stretch of about 25.-
900 acres behind 1t which may be
used by the concern at any time.
The Pacific bounds it on one side,
and the coast mountains, with
their picturesque canyons and
high tablelands, stretch out into
its other three boundaries as far
as the eye can reach. There are
FIVE directors and several hun.
dred actors working on 1t. The
Kay Bee and Broncho films are
made there for the New York
Motion Picture company.
"Get your eye ready for quick
changes" was my guides first di-
rection as we started up the main
canyon to see how pictures are
made. "And be prepared for
hard climbing and rough road"
We had gone only few steps
when a confederate officer dashed
past on snorting charger.
Around the bend we came upon
some dark-skirned girls and men
riding bareback. Across the
creek a fat Indian woman stood
outside her little cabin watching
the scene. THEY WE'RE ALL.

SHARPEN YOUR OWN
SKATES THIS WAY

Why pay out money for having
your skates sharpened when you
can do 1t yourself. All that is
necessary 10 a good rat-tail file
and a piece of tin. Bend the tin
around the file as shown in the
sketch and then apply the file to
the edge of the skate blade, as is
also shown. You can get a file
for q small sunless than the
sharpening of the skates cost.
And one file can be used to
sharpen skates as long as you
live,

vice. The young people Of
our neighborhood have SPLEEN
did times together; but there
is one thing that makes the
girls feel badly.
The young men do not ask
permission, but simply take
the privilege OF walking
along with a girl when he
takes her home, or perhaps
says something like this:
"Wait a minute, Madge, and
Ill walk down the street with
you"
We took our brother to
task for this, and he reSent-
ed 1t, saying: THE girls just
want a fellow to kneel down
to them" Now, Miss Grey,
we girls appreciate the COM
pany of the boys, but believe
we are not expecting too
much when we want them to
at least have common cour-
tesy, or has It gone out of
fashion to ask girl, May
I see you homer"
What would you do, Miss
Grey? We will take your
advice, for It Ii certainly al
ways good. Do not think from
this letter that the young
men are ungentlemanly or
rude, for most of them are
fine, good-hearted friends;
but lacking in this one re-
spect. Thanking you.
TWO IN NEED OF COUN-
GIL.
Al understand how the girl
feel exactly, and l also know jus
how the boys look at It. You sa
they are manly fellows, and fine
good friends. Under such cOndi
ton 1 see no reason why the
be more formal than the
are.
I was raised with boys an,
men, and am accustomed to bein
treated as a chum or cOmrade
and really l prefer 1t. A girl o
even a woman grown can hav
nicer times-gOod, free
sane, healthful times-with TIN
kind Of men who are really good
fine friends, rather than silly
fObs, who will be OK
ira polite until they get an oppoi
tunity to do otherwise. Take m
advice and do not spoil this beau
tiful comradeship.
One word. The advice given /
for young men you know well
and who are, as you say, mani
I'm every way. In case of strang
ers one must sometimes be q lit
tie more particular, and II woul,
be presumption for a man you
have just met to take IL for grant
ed he could accompany you with
out your permission.
Dear Miss Grey: I am a
young girl and I am in love
with a nice looking young
man a few years older than
myself. He has said that he
loves me; but l don't know
whether he means 1t or not.
He left the place where we
were working and l have not
heard of him since. Will you
please tell me what to do?
A.-Have you inquired whethe
Or not the young man Is i'll, or ha

July the Month to Get

Buying Good Stock

For those who are striving to be
economical in their outlay for good
stock July is the month of the year
in which TO get the most for their
money purchasing good breeding
stock. Any one who is regularly in
the business has before this time
Matched all the young stock he can
handle and as a rule has not the room
to carry over all his breeding stock
and for the sake of making them
move off lively will offer them at
greatly reduced price A few dollars
invested at this time with some good
breeder for a pen of frst-class chick
ems Would be money well placed. True
you would have to carry them
through the molt, but that does
not begin to Offset the big
reduction secured. A pen of
chickens bought now and fed light
ly for a month and the feed increased
after that time should soon come into
laying, and with judicious manage
ment a few fall chickens could be
raised and still have the parent stock
ready for early spring business This
tom of many Of the best poultry peo-
pie all over the country, and bene-
fetal to both buyer and seller
In your endeavors to make a pur-
chase of this character be sure you
strike some one who really has a sur

and for that reason will let them 60
for a sacrifice few hundreds of
dollars invested in this way by the
farmers Of the South at this time to
get good stock with which to sup
plant their scrubs would mean thou
sands of dollars to them during the
next twelve months.
We only wish each and every one
could see it as We have seen 1t tried,
time and again in our experience. in
travelling over the country, and how

made the experiment. as they called
it, Of the increased profits they had
derived by handling first class, thor

are they that they could not be hired
