In an article entitled, The Menace
of the Movies, = In q recent issue OF
the American Magazine, Walter Pri-
ehard Eaton, theatrical critic of that
publication, presents a list OF interest
ing facts about the extent OF the
moving picture business in this coun.
try. The following is an extract:
There are certainly ten thousand
such theatres, Il Is said, and proba.
bly, the daily attendance is closer to
twenty million than 20 the five mil.
lion estimated ny the proprietors. II
easily could be that many at any
rate, since each theatre probably
gives at least four performances q
day. This means that more than one
fifth OF our entire population are pa.
irons OF the movies every day. This
means that, at ten cents an admis.
sion, we as 3 nation are spending
two millions Of dollars daily to wit.
ness canned drama. No such per.
centage OF the population attends the
so-called first-class drama. However,
as they never did, 1t is perfectly ap.
parent that considerable number OF
the patrons of the movies have not
been drawn away from better things.
It is obvious that many OF these
twenty millions OF canned theatre.
goers never were patrons OF the CON
ventional playhouse Unfortunately,
there are no available statistics to
show what percentage OF the pop.
ulation attended the conventions
theatre THAT Ii, the theatre
where plays are presented, not
vaudeville nor burlesque1 before
the movies were invented, and
what percentage now attends. t is,
however. pretty generally admitted
that the galleries OF our theatres art
no longer filled as they used to be.
Even the most successful plays on
Broadway, plays which are selling
out downstairs, often show tiers
of empty benches under the roof
This is usually attributed to the
movies

Forest Notes.

The railroads of the United States
use about 150,000,000 wooden ties
each year.
Much Of the piliHg, wharf material,
and lock gates of the Panama canal
are made of greenheart, sad to De
the most durable wood known Tor
these purposes, which comes mainly
from British Guiana.
Much of the so-calied silk nova
days is made of wood. Germany
produces more than one million
bounds of this celIulose silk, worth
81 SOC, 900. A ton Of wood worth Slo
Yields cellulose worth $40, and TINS
celluIose yields silk worth S8oO'
Washington stands first in lumber
production, with Louisiana second.
II is said that 10000, 900 broom
handles are used annually in the
United States; one for each man, Wo-
man, and child.
The lands burned over during the
terrible fires on the idaho national
forests in 1910 are now largely cover.
ed with a thick growth of young tree
seedlings, by natural reseedlng.
Manufacturers Of artificial limbs
are seeking substitutes for English
willow, used because of its com pined
lightness and strength. It is claimed
the Port Oxford cedar of the Pacific
coast will prove equally serViceable. .
A single mill in Maine uses szooo
cords of paper birch each year IN
the manufacture of toothpicks.
The new Chinese republic has es-
tablisbed a department of agriculture
and forestry. For long time China
had been pointed out as the most
backward nation in forest work.
A toy company at sheboygan,
Wis. started out to use only the
waste wood from other mills. It has
worked out system Of using all
small waste pieces SO that practically
nothing but the saWdust Is lost.
Contrary to popular belief, forest
fires seldom travel more than two or
three miles an hour. Even in ex-
IRENE cases It is questionable Wheth-
| er they burn at a rate Of more than
six TO ten miles an hour.
More than 5000 small logging oper-
ators now buy national forest timber;
at least $4,000 persons, settlers, mi
ners, stockmen and others, obtain
timber from Uncle Sans big wood
lot for their own use free OF charge.

A Friendly Little Talk 70 New Ex.
t3ihitors at Fairs.

So you are going to have an e1-
hibit at your fair? That is good. II
/ is a sign of progress and ambition
when a farmer has the skill TO
produce something on his farm
which is SO much above average
quality that he thinks it is worth
while for him to take it out for other
farmers to look at The man
who has a calf, or 4 colt, or pig.
or bushel of corn, or a bale OF hay
good enough to go to the fair, has
accomplished at least one thing OF
which he is proud, and such accom-.
plishment, you know, is one OF the
durable satisfaction" OF life.
Right here, however, is where you
may make a big mistake. That calf
or that bushel of potatoes may ap-
pear SO good to you that You will
feel it is scarcely worth while to
take any special pains to tit them for
exhibition. Such a conclusion is all
wrong, You owe it to yourself and
to the public to put your exhibits on
the fair grounds in the best possible
condition. The calf must be well
fleshed-he need not be extra fat;
his coat must be as sleek as a seal, i
without a speck of dust or the slight
est stain to mar it; his horns must
be rubbed smooth and shiny; he
must be taught to lead and to face
strangers without fear. He will not
pass for his real worth IL he Is
dirty or IL he goes pulling and strad.
ding away every time q visitor ap.
proaches.
The potatoes, too, must be clean.
as nearly uniform In size and shape
as you can get them, and well ar.
ranged In a neat vessel or an at.
tractiVe heap.
So with every other product. II il
is worth showing at all, it is worth
taking little trouble with.
| And then when you have done your
best, you may miss the prize. Never
forget that. The calf, instead Of
taking the blue ribbon. as you had
counted ON, may be classed fourth OF
fifth. There's the rub-the test OF
the good exhibitor. If such a thing
happens, don't get mad" and abuse
1.-THE fair or the judges, or charge that
you didn't get fair treatment. In
stead, try to find out why you didn'i
win. The judges should be able to
tell you. In fact, we think no ribbon
should be tied, no prize awarded OF
q fair, without full explanation from
| the judges as to why such award wal
made. We know that sometimes the
Judging Is done almost in secret, and
| that the exhibitor may not know
when his entry is being passed on.
This Is ali wrong; but the time to
remind your fair officials Of the fact
lis before the fair. not after the
awards are made The Progressive
Farmer.
