THE SWEETEST NOTE OF ALL

ITO the minds of the many, II mead
ow lark is n meadow lark, and those
who have been raised in Nebraska are
likely to be familiar with but one of
several subspecies-the so-called wcs-
tern meadow lark. This beautiful
songster was discovered near the pres
ent site of Omaha way back in the
forties by Audubon himself, who was
then tramping all over the country
on foot, making his wonderful paint-
ings and observations of American
wild bird life.
Audubon was charmed with the de-
licious carol of this creature of the
meadows, and spoke of it many times
in his writings. Most bird lovers
md skilled ornithologists agree that
he note of the western meadow lark
is the sweetest and purcst of all.
Musicians have been able to rec
ord his songs upon paper and many
amateurs are able to whistle n fair
imitation. Authorities disagree OH
just what the western meadow lark
says from his fence post or from
behind his clump of grass. A Ne
braska farmer, who's potato crop had
been saved from the beetles by the
larks, told DR.. Scion II. Townc, pres.
ident of the Audubon society, that ia
him tho western meadow lark says
nothing but:
'Whoop la! Potato bug
Another we'll known song Of this
delightful bird seems to be:
"My, what lovely creature!'
"And still another:
"'Singing about us usual!'
"There is n story of the streets
that tells of n bcmused party who
heard some folks talking about the
western meadow lark.
ooh, yesf interrupted the dizzy
person, That's the bird that says
Better go take the Kelley cure
"But no matter what he says, hi,
song is thing of beauty and JOY
forever. These larks appeared in tho
outskirts of Omaha about two week:
ago and are rapidly increasing il
numbers.
"If you take your Sunday strolc
through the country side today you
will doubtless hear the carol that
startled Audubon so many years ago
for the songs of the California ant
eastern meadow larks can not com
pare in tone and sweetness with those
of the western variety that belong t,
us of the plains and to us alone"

The subject was history.

THE MARRIAGE OF KITTY"
Fannie Ward, in Her Initial Screen Appearance, Gives Excellent Per
 formance in Lasky Production.

In "The Marriage of Kitty" an Iadaptation in five parts on the play by F. De Crosset and Fred De Gresac, the Lasky company has given us an excellent comedy. It is produced by George Melford, who has chosen a strong cast for the support of Fannie Ward, the comedienne who in this subject makes her bow to the screen. There are a few serious moments, and in these the dramatic situations are treated with skill. This is especially true of the closing scenes.
 Miss Ward has the role of an or phaned girl who appeals to lawyer friend in the city to aid her, and the lawyer makes use of her as an in- lstrument to circumvent a will that is bothering one of his clents-that pre- vents an Englishman from marrying a girl of the stage. On the sugges- tion of the lawyer the Englishman marres Kitty and departs for a stay of six months, in order to lay grounds for a charge of desertion, thereby en- abling him to marry the player.
 The comedian amuses as the freak young woman which she makes of her self in order to gain the acquiescence of the fiancee to the transaction. It must be admitted that the girl from a small community displays a command of the art of makeup, but we laugh just the same. She charms as the duly installed Lady Belsize, and she must needs be charming to win the impressionable lord from the clever Helen De Semiano of the Gayety theater.
 Cleo Ridgeley has the part of Helen, land she brings to the interpretation the art of the screen player as we'll as Ia most interesting personality. Jack Dean scores as the Englishman, Lord Reginald Belsize; his conception of Belsize makes him a very swagger young man, but there is no trace of the burlesque. Tom Forman is good as the brother and adviser of Helen, and the same must be said of Richard Morris as the lawyer and Mrs. Me Cord as the old friend of Kitty The statement may be repeated that it is an excellent cast. The scenario is the work of Hector Turnbull; he has well told the story.
 "The Marriage of Kitty" will make splendid entertainment At the Gem theatre Thursday, matinee and night.

QUIT SELLING COWS.

The greatest calamity in Arkansas just now is the sale of cows and heifers from our farms. There ought to be an embargo if it were legal, against selling any heifers or any COWS under ten years of age. Ar kansas needs a thousand pure bred bulls brought int< the state but she cant spare a heifer or a COW. Our farms need the manures and our farmers need the cash they would realize next year from calves from scrub cows and sired by pure bred bulls. Arkansas farmers can make money by growing calves and feeders for the northern farmers to finish. Get in bulls but do not sell cows. Two specialists of the Extension Di- vision of the College of Agriculture are helping bring in pure bred bulls.

AMERICAN COTTON-SPINNING MACHINERY MADE AT HOME.

Over 90 per cent of the cotton-spin- ming machinery installed in American cotton mills is of American manufac- ture, reports the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, Department of Commerce, as a result of its re- cent study of the cost of producing cotton-textile machinery in this coun- try. There was a time when the home mills were almost wholly de pendent upon foreign manufacturers for machinery, but in recent years the imports have decreased rapidly. The number of cotton-teXtile ma chimes imported at New York, Bos- ton and Philadelphia decreased from 1,132 in 1909 to 275 in 1914.
 The report just issued is one of series that the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce has issued on the cost of producing articles in this coun- try, it's work in this respect being virtually a continuance of the work of the old tariff board. The information collected is intended primarily for the guidance of Congress when tariff legislation is under consideration. As with all the recent studies of this kind, the original intention was to make corresponding study of the industry in the principal producing countries of Europe, but the war made it impossible to carry out the plan.
 The cost of producing textile ma chinery was ascertained from three firms, operating six plants. These firms produce so to 90 per cent of the cotton-spinning machinery manufac- tured in this country, their output comprising machinery from the bale opener to the spinning frame. The combined sales of the three firms in 1909 were $12,S37 ,S92 and in 1914 $7,440,916, the average for the period being S9,9S1,711. On these sales there was manufacturing profit of 22.94 per cent and final profit of 25.05 per cent during the most profitable year and manufacturing profit of 3.S0 per cent and final profit of 5.62 per cent during the least profitable year. There was manufacturing profit of 1929 per cent and a final profit of 2O24 per cent for the period from 1909 to 1913.
 The Bureau finds that there has been surprising lack of attention to cost accounting in the plants visited. One large plant had practically no general bookkeeping system except in the purchase department It used an inadequate single-entry system. Another firm apparently made no effort to keep books except in the most oldfashioned way, and until two years ago had not taken an inventory of stock on hand for 25 or 30 years At only one plant was there an actual system in use. Even this was unsatisfactory and has since been replaced by a modern and ac- curate system. On the other hand, there have been many efforts in the last 20 years to increase the manu- featuring efficiency of the various plants. Many automatic and special tools have been introduced, and some shops have been specially equipped for the efficient production of certain machines.

5000 ADDITIONAL
 TROOPS UNDER ORDERS
Continued from page one.)

guardsmen of all states near the border and that ordnance and quar- termaster stores to outfit all such troops on a full war basis are held at convenient points for quick dis tribution.
 Mir. Baker refused to discuss re- ports that General Funston had urged that he be given total of 10000 men to maintain the border guard
 It is possible that the border com mander mentioned that figure as the number of men he thought necessary to insure protection to all border towns and ranches. The secretary said General Pershiug's force in Mex leo was able to take care of itself in any emergency.
 Including the troops ordered out yesterday there will be 45,000 sol diers along the border or in Mexico, according to the best availablee fig Wes. Calling out the national guard for the first time under the present military act brings up the first fact that as written the act authorizes the president to use the state soldiers within or without United States ter ritory.
 The provision authorizing the use of the guardsmen beyond the border was held to be unconstitutional by former Attorney General Wicker sham. It never has been passed upon by the supreme court, and the presi- dent has full authority to employ the state forces beyond the border if he so desires. Only an injunction against the war department could prevent this. By the terms of the law the guardsmen must be entered into the service of the United States before they can come under the complete con- trol of the federal government.
 Eiseo Arredondo took to the state department today a written state ment of the information on which he bases charges that the Glen Springs raid was planned and possibly car ried out from the American side of the line. Because of this he request ed that the United States take addi- tional precautions on its own side of the border The ambassador was in- formed that additional troops have been sent and more would follow, if they should be needed.
 A late press report from Mexico City saying Foreign Minister Aguilar, formerly had denied reports that the de facto government had taken or planned to take any action to prevent additional expeditions from crossing the border served further ot indicate that the Scott Obregon plan was ap- proved by General Carranza. Mir. Arredondo's statement was telegraph ed to General Funston for his infor- nation. It was asserted that An tonic Villareal, a political exile from Mexico, was responsible for the Glen Springs tragedy and had sought to incite Mexicans on both sides Of the line to engage in other raids. The statement told of two definite plots said to be forming.
