ilously increased. In this country
it is the same. The profits of in
dustry, owing to our war trade,
make it harder and harder for the
farmer to obtain labor. But this
situation would have come about
gradually in a few years without
the war.
The greatest problem in the world,
really, quite aside from the war,
though heightened thereby, IS
whether the maximum of food pro-
duction with the minimum of labor
has been achieved. 1t is not a
question of starving. The poten-
TALLY of the soil has not been ex-
h&usted. Agricultural production
can be enormously increased. In
this country it could be increased
fourfold with the knowledge now
existing. But could it be increased
fourfold, or at all, without more
labor? That is to say, can the per
capita productive power Of the agri-
culturist be increased? Have we
gone as far as it is possible to go
with labor saving implements? II
we have, then a limit is put upon
cities again. The ratio of urban to
rural population cannot increase
any more, because fewer agricult-
wrists cannot feed more city dwell
ers. A limit is put upon industrial
development in the same way. The
economic course Of the world will
change.

"Cursed is the ground for thy sake.
"Tbistles also and thorns shall 1t
bring forth to thee"
without the tradition Of its hav-
ing happened, you would think the
ground had been cursed. How else
could one account for the fatuous
ambition of man TO build himself
cities to live in and buy or seize his
food? The size Of his cities, the
height and splendor Of his monu-
ments. the glories Of empire, the
very leisure in which science and
art are advanced-these have al
ways been limited by his food sup
plv. vet he has neglected agricult-
pre as a science and avoided it as
a pursuit.
From remotest time until very
recently there was little or no I'M
movement in the methods Of food
production. The wooden plough
had supplanted the crooked stick at
least 5000 years B. c. Before the
Christian era the Romans used a
plough with shining share Yet
the modern plough dates only from
the latter half of the seventeenth
century. Twelve years after the
landing Of the Pilgrim Fathers
there were no ploughs in the neigh
borhood of Boston. The French set
tiers of Illinois used wooden ploughs
hitched to the horns Of oxen. In
Ireland at this time wooden ploughs
were hitched to the tails Of horses.
The first cast iron plough was pat
ented in the United States in 1897,
and there was a superstitious OBJ
lection to its use. 1t was thought
that the iron poisoned the soil and
made the weeds grow.

Ernesto Natiello, leader Of the cele-

ing his name, which will be a feature
of the Kentucky State Fair, was born
in Italy in 1873. Six years later his
father, Signor Antonio Natiello, came
to America and was appointed band
master on the United States Ship
Brooklyn. He made Ernesto cornet
soloist in a band he had organized in
Philadelphia.
In 1889 Ernesto returned to Europe
to finish his musical studies. Attain
ing the highest degree of perfection
on the cornet, young NatieHo came
back to the United States as soloist
with the famous Band of Milan. After
an American tour, he returned tc
Naples and enlisted in the Italian
army, serving as cornetist in his regi
ment for six months. Then he again
came to America and joined a promi

DOES COLLEGE TRAIN,

critics of Higher Education Refuted
In Film PLAYA Powerful Photo
Drama-E. Forrest Taylor,
Star In True Nobility" at
Star Theatre sunday.

Critics of University training base
enc of their principal arguments upon
ae theory that young men of poor
aren.age who go to college look
down upon their less fortunate par
-Ats and become Snobs and social
climbers. Ii their parents should be
t.ean living hard working people of
nipple taste whose chief delight is in
their toll the son is generally sup
posed to look down upon labor as de-
grading and to feel ashamed of their
aarents who are working people.
However, this argument is refuted
in the Mutual Masterpiece De Luxe
Edition True Nobility" a five-act
4rama produced by the American
Film Company which will appear at
the Star Theatre on Sunday with e.
Forrest Taylor and Helene Rosson in
the leading role. The story is pow
erful one of young man, Philip Bur-
ton, who returns to his home in the
West after a four years course at
| Harvard.
He goes into the mountains pros
pecting and nurses suck miner who
upon his death bed assigns rich
claim to him. Phil refuses the be-
auest and insists that the dying man
bequeath his claim to some relative.
The miner gives him picture of his
sister and Phil sets out to find the
girl
The claim proves valuable and Phil
while seeking capital to develop it
meets Count Niasiso. wealthy ad-
venturer and Lord Devlin an un-
scrupulous profHgate. Among Dew
Inns acquaintances is Effie Marsh, a
western girl. Devlin learns she is
the heiress to the mine and the girl
Phil is seeking. Devlin persuades hel
|
to sign over her rights to him.
The Countess who is engaged tc
Deylin is interested in settlement work
and meets Effie in a settlement house
Efie whose quest for fame in the me,
tropolis has been futile becomes des-
pondent and plans suicide. Phil hears
her story and saves the girl from
rash end. She tells him about Lore
Devlin and he recognizes her as the
sister of the old miner. He gets pos
session of the deeds to the property
and foils Lord Devlin just as he Is
about to rob Effie of her fortune. Thf
Countess sees the type of man she
was about to marry and breaks OF
her engagement and plans to marry
Phil.
E. Forrest TAYLOR as Phil is seen il
new Western characterization
type far different from the usua
Western hero. His acting at all time!
is repressed and artistic. Helen Ros
son makes a charming Etfie and the
other members of the cast are equa
merit.
