At the Biiou

Hilarious is the word that properly de-
scribes the farce-comedy which Is this
weeks offering at the Bijou, and Don't
Lie to Your Wife," as presented by Dave
Lewis and capable company, will prob
ably prove one of the best drawing cards
of the season. Dave Lewis is mainly
responsible for the comedy and he Is
ably assisted by the several members of
the company. There is not dull moment
in the play and the interest is sustained
until the curtain drops.
Several specialties and musical numbers
are introduced which, however, do not
add to the enjoyment of the comedy. The
curtain monalogue of Dave Lewis is one
of the features of the evenings enter
tainment. The comedy is clean on the
whole and while only one scene is used
for the three acts it is well staged.
While the plot is not new it affords
lively vehicle for the doing of three gay
sparks who during the absence of their
wives and sweethearts proceeded to have
a good time.
Dave Lewis, as Amos Doppledae, a
German-American of New York, bore the
brunt of the play and was reasonable
for most of the comedy situations. Miss
Coro Buckman as the wife of Amos was
all that could be desired. J. ]. Craig and
Donald Clayton as George Benedict and
Arthur Pringle shared with Mr.. Lewis
in the comedy features and were very
acceptable. John Keogh as the lively
press agent was good as was Martin
Franklin as the amorous race horse
owner. William Wolfe as Mueller, the
policeman, was fair, making the most out
of minor part. Egbert Armitage as
David Coates was acceptable.
Mrs. Frances Mann, as Mrs. Benedict
who believed in equal rights for women.
and Miss Estele Vernon, as Mabel Dop-
pledae, were admirable. While Miss Flora
Otis. Miss Dorothy Keates. and Miss
Eleanor Frey as the chorus girls were
excellent.
Those who love good laugh will not
be disappointed at this weeks offering at
the Bijou.

At the Orpheum

No one can accuse Raymond Paine and
1.-THE Girl Question of being similar to
any Of the other musical comedies in
tabloid form that have been seen here.
''The Girl Question" depends on the real
comedy of the lines, the cleverness of
the performers and situations for the
laughs, which are many and sprinlzled
freely through the show.
Raymond Paine is we'll known here, and
was received with applause at each of the
three performances yesterday-and the
big Orpheum was we'll filled every time
He has a happy part Of a lover whose girl
doesn't return his love. But at the very
last he discovers that he really loves an
ether woman. and all ends happily for
him. He has several songs. "Oh, Gee,
Be Sweet to Me, Kid "Giggiing and
Nhistling.' which was easily the hit of
the show, and a number is his specially
which is shared by winsome little Inez
Nesbit, the Elsie of the company.
Boyle Woolfolk's "Chicklets'' chorus
dance well and sing up to the average.
They have the unusual distinction of hav-
Ing three numbers wholely to themselves,
something rare for the chorus. Several
Of the musical numbers were staged to
good effect with the chorus, notably
Meet Me at the Stage Door Tonight by
Hans Herbert.
The speciality of Miss Mae Taylor was
a high water mark of cleverness in the
show, and was the most pleasing OF the
efforts. She sang but two numbers, 'Lov-
ing Man. and when the Midnight Che
Chico Leaves for Alabam," but both we'll
done. IS
The Orpheum was opened for the week
with this show, and there will be NATL
nees daily at 2:s0 and two performances
rightly. at 7:0 and o'clock.

Agricultural Quacks.

From the man with the universal
panacea for all the ills of the farmin q
business, deliver us! Keep shy of
the fellow who breaches the doctrine
of a specific fertilizer for all soils, a
flock OF sheep for every farm, deep
plowing under all conditions. a COOP
erative creamery, where there are few
cows. Suppress the man-there are
scores of such-who is certain that
he, alone, has the solution to all prob
lens and that law--with an appro-
priation embodying his vic ws-is all
that is needed to set the world Alright.
The iunny part of it is that most of
these rapid-fre regulators don know
anything abou, farming or farm prob
lens from actual contact. Mean
while, the regular farmer goes about
his business of feeding mankind, doing
the best he can in most cases, bearing
the burdens of a stalwart citizen and
rearing an industrious and efficient
family upon which commerce, art and
I eprofessions must ever draw heavily
for recuits.-Farm and Home.

A Wool State.

Missouri is dealt with as woo
producing state in bulletin issused
by Commissioner John T. Fitzpatrick
of the bureau of labor statistics.
Particular attention is called TO the
fact that this state produces more
wool annually than Iowa, Illinois,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkanas,
Oklahoma, Kansas or Nebraska.
Missouri in 1912 produced and
marketed 7,425, 900 pounds of wool, ,
washed and unwashed, which
brought 81 1885, $50 to the farmers,
based on an average of 20 cents a
pound. The combined wool produc-
ton OF Tennessee, Arkanas, Okla
homa, Kansas and Nebraska was
l,4OO, 600 pounds below this mark.
Figures compiled by A. +. Edmon-
son, supervisor OF statistics, show the
process of securing reduced Mis-
souri's wool yield 20 4,083, 72O
pounds, but the value was increased
to 50, 1874 1888. Missouri wool last
year brought 28 cents per pound in
Boston, washed and unwashed, and
52 cents secured Just how much of
the yield was pulled over the eyes OF
the people by the politicians is not
stated, but the percentage must have
been large, in view OF the many grave
blunders made by the legislature.

To many men, scientific methods
have something to do with a strange,
mysterious power that seems beyond
ordinary comprehension. As a mat
ter of fact, scientific methods of agri-
culture are really the simplest and
best methods. 1t is doing the right
thing at the right time-with a clear
understanding of why it is done.
Teaching scientific methods to the
youth will widen his horizon, give
him a better outlook, shorten the
hours of labor, remove much of the
drudgery and enhance the attractions
OF farm life. Agriculture will take
on new and deeper meaning.
A certain per cent of boys and
girls will naturally gravitate to the
city, even though scientific methods
are practiced on every farm, and
there is an auto in the garage, be-
cause all boys were not born to be
farmers, no more than all the city
boys were born to be bankers. Each
individual to his own bent. Attract
i've home surroundings on the farm,
with the possibilities of a fair COM
pensation for labor, will always be
alluring to the boy or girl who has
drifted away from the farm and fails
to find a pot Of gold at the rainbow
edge IN the region of skyscrapers.
As farming becomes more of
business proposition and less a means
OF mere livelihood, it will have
greater attraction for the ambitious
youths of the farm. Before that time
ever comes, the farmer will have to
be in position to command better
price for his produce. With a rising
market IN the city and falling mar
ket in the country, the problem of
getting fair return for farm produce
becomes really serious one. In
the new scheme of things, scientific
agriculture and "scientific" market
ing of produce are relative terms.
The boy or girl who can be interest
ed in this phase of farm life is pretty
sure to remain on the farm. Few
men or women succeed in their work
unless they are interested in what
they are doing.-Missouri and Kan
sas Farmer.

"THERE's A BURNING HE'LL" "

DR.. W. T. Logan preached strong
sermon at the Cumberland Presby-
terian church Saturday night from the
theme, "Your Sins Will Find You
Out" says the Sedalia Democrat.
His arguments we're unanswerable,
and several young men and one
young lady gave their hands for
prayer.
The Rev. Logan breaches again
from the subject, "There is a burn
ing hell" He proposes to show
where hell is, what it is how one goes
there and how long it lasts. He
boldly declares that man will spend
eternity in hell as in heaven and tha,
hell is everlasting. He denies the
claim made by some that man may
die in his sins and after death have an
other chance to repent. Then the
Democrat adds, 60 out and hear him,
and it will do you good. That will de-
pend whether one is solid in his belle
that he is going to keep out OF tha,
"burning h-ll."

Fight 1t Out Oh This Line II
1t Takes All Summer"
Advice from State Board of Agricul-
ture, Columbia.

huVlCe from state Board OF AgrlCul-
ture, Columbia.
Farming conditions throughout
about three -fourths of Missouri are
becoming somewhat serious because
of lack of rain. Nothing is to be
gained by denying this fact. 1t is
the coward who whistles as he goes
alone through graveyard at dead
of night. The Missouri farmer is no
coward. Nor is he an ostrich, bury
ing his head in the sand and seeking
in this stupid way to escape danger.
On the farms of this splendid
state-a state where never yet has
there been general crop failure
are men ready to face every problem
and to put into practice the most ap-
proved methods. In other trying
times they have kept going. kept a
stiff upper lip and won! II comes
the worst, the workers will win again.
If after our scare, comes the showers
yes, and the "soakers" the
stirred soil will prove the wisdom of
work in dry weather.
Corn in Missouri may yet be a
bumper crop. The stand was never
better and the fields never cleaner of
weeds. Shallow cultivation and
dragging will, if kept up right along,
keep corn growing for some time.
There is magic in dust mulch and
an old mower wheel dragged between
the corn rows may be a wheel of pro-
gress. Let us not, through neglect,
suffer loss, but let us keep the corn
alive to the last. Shallow, level cul-
tivation is the thing.
DO not sacrifice habitat live stock

onto the cows and sows--,in fact to
