The federal statutes prohibit the
showing of prize fight pictures any
where in the United States. The
statute went into effect soon after
the Jeffries- j ohnson fight at Reno,
and was for the purpose of avoiding
the probability Of race riots when
might follow the showing of the pic
lures, especially in the south. Those
expecting to see the Willard-John-
son fight through the movies Will
be disappointed, although very
strong fight will be made by the pic

Alamosa had a good deal of rival

people of Alamosa wanted, judging
from what was lined up against it..

DIVERSITY AND STAND
ARDIZE YOUR CROPS

In concluding a very interesting
bulletin upon the above subject. w.
II. olin, d. & R. G. agriculturist,
gives the following:
In conclusion, permit us to say,
we should study our farm soil and
make the crop rotation improve,
rather than impoverish our land.
Ihen we can never be accused of
being soil robbers and leave behind
us depleted soil.
A system of crop rotation in Eng
land has enabled it's farms to main
tain an average of thirty bushels of
wheat to the acre. This land has
been cropped for more than a thou
sand years. The wheat average of
this nation for the past quarter of
century, or even for the past decade,
was but little more than half this
amount. Much of our WHEAT land is
comparatively virgin soil, and none
of it has been cropped for more than
$50 years.
Let the irrigation farmer of the
west take lesson from this, work
out the rotation that suits his re-
gion, gives a good money return,
and that improves, rather than i'm
poverishes his land. He should not
be satisfied until he has worked out
a crop rotation adapted to his soil,
climate and market environment,
and which is averaging him a gross
return of fifty dollars per acre per
crop season
Within our irrigated districts are
men who came west to farm from
counting house, and the city Office
of this or that professionalism of
intelligence, skill and energy. Their
previous business experience has
taught them that working individ-
ually for certain things will not ac-
comDlish what cooperation can
readily bring to pass and quickly |
accomplish for all. These are the |
men who are leading their commu-
mites to adopt for all the farms of a
given district definite cash crop of |
community type Through farm
organizations of various kinds they
encourage farmers to grow these
uniform type crops to the best of
their ability, producing quantity
as well as quality, by means of
which their farmers organization
interests wholesale markets, bring
ing to each individual farmer of the
district enlarged market demands,
at better prices for their crop grown.
Carefully planned and faithfully
managed standardization should win
for the farming district the crop
success crop rotation will win for
each individual farm.
We are finding in this intermoun-
tain region that cooperation, cor
relation and continuation are the
three "C's" that put us all to work |
for each other, and persistently
maintained, will reap the harvest of
Peace, Plenty and Prosperity, for
the farmer, banker and business
man of the Denver & Rio Grande |
railroad country.

Business Optimism And

Banker Henry Clews, one of the foremost fnan-
cers Of the United States, has the following to say
regarding the business situation:
"All signs indicate that have entered per-
iod of permanent recovery from the war. The first
effects of that cataclysm panic, followed by
paralysis, then period of vacllation between fear
and confidence Through all of these phases the pro-
cess of financial and commercial adjustment has
been progressing with remarkable steadness, until
fear has now almost totally disappeared and buoy
ancy is taking its place. Trade and finance, at least
so far the United States, have been COM
pletely adjusted to conditions, and the tendency
now is to discount in advance the coming of peace.
Confidence has been further strengthened by pro-
of the itself While it would be unwise to
indulge in premature optimism the hope of an early
end is based upon the belief that preparedness on
one side and exhaustion the other only bring
one result The general opinion is that peace will

Life is full OF drama and, as con-
d sequence. of dramatic expression.
Anyone who keeps his eyes open can
store up many impressions and IDEAS
that will be useful in photoplay acting.
EOEgcourse, reading helps, too.
one Of the places where gather
my greatest fund of hints as to dra'
matte expression of human emotion IS
Sin gSthe. theater itself. I try to see
everything worth while that Is pro-
Sduced. From the best actors learn
E6oth what to do and .whatsto avoid
Sdoinga!
Such tangible lessons in front Of you
teach you much, just as in speaking
Spart'tit often helps to hear someone
else read your lines. You thus find
Fout how they sound and what they
need put into them.
The main art OF photoplay act
ing is to know how, to weld feel
ing and action into one.
Nearly everyone collects something.
31shaVe been collector all my life. At
sone time my fancy was for hats. And
seYen now, the aftermath OF that mad
period is an overlooking bunch OF
head-gear of oil sizes, shapes ana
colors.
4tS linen 1t. was SIlbSS. "ASt 49, -
enough shoes to cover the feet OF a
rentipede!
At later periods l collected odd
teYelry, scarves, draperies, hair orna-
ments. hear you say am extrava-
giant. / deny it. l plead necessity.
N need all these things as theatrical
sSprops."
IN wish could let my feminine
movie fans have a peep into my
treasure trunks. There have
stored all kinds of beautiful things
-jeweled tiaras, feathered fans,
Spanish combs, Irish lace coats,>
tinselled scarves, gauzy draperies
OF many colors. sashes of flaming
silk with tasseled ends, spurred
boots, plumed hats.
Here is lace jabot and there Is
lylocket with history. Here is an
