At THE AUDITORIUM.

The feature at the Auditorium to-
day is that sterling actor, Robert
Warwick. in THE Argyle Case" II
is an adaptation of the famous de-
tective drama which was an i'm
mense success several seasons ago.
The play was the work of Harvey
J. O'Higgins and Harriet Ford. the
celebrated American dramatists. and
William J Burns the great detec-
tive who collaborated with the au-
thors in order 10 insure the realistic
effectiveness of the use of such mod
ern instruments of the science Of
detection as the photograph and
finger-print photography. The result
was a detective drama that differed
from any play Of its kind ever pro-
duced. In this play the methods in
which the detective follows up his
clues and runs the murderer down
are precisely the methods employed
by such real detectives as Mr..
Bsns.
The story Of THE Argyle Case
starts with the absorbing mystery of
the murder Of old John Argyle, an
eccentric millionaire. Suspicion falls
upon his adopted daughter. Mary,
and while the police are trying to
amass enough evidence 70 convict
her. Asche Kayton, a private detec-
tive extraordinary, is called in to
prove her innocence. In accomplish
ing this the trail leads into the den
of the cleverest band of counterfeit
ers in America and the action of the

BE ECONOMICAL

Economy must be one of our watch words in this great war. We must economize in every way possible. We must produce all we can, make it go as far as we can and waste absolutely nothing which can be avoided. If we save all the food that we now waste in various ways, it will go far toward feeding our armies; but when vast ed it feeds neither them nor ourselves.
 When our country was at peace. we felt that We could be eXtravagant at times, because prosperity favored us; and while we may still be prosperous, we must remember that we must di- vide with our great armies which have become users and not producers.

THE action of the council in em- ploying q force of men to repair the sidewalks and street crossings is I commendable one, as in many places the walks are getting in a condition that is liable to bring the city into |, damage suit at any time. Valdez has one of the best locations for town in the Territory, With just sufficient slope to the streets to permit of easy drainage, it would be feasible to place box drains under our sidewalks and lave dry streets at all seasons of the year. The tourist season is at hand and in a few more days our citizens will be expected to clean up the wiu ter's accumulation of garbage. and place our town in her best bib and tucker tor the tourists. Good streets, well-kept premises and substantial sidewalks add much to a towns a,- pearance.

THE MAN WITH THE HOE"

The man who can farm and who does not put into action all of the el- ergy and intelligence that can be mus tered this year will he most unwise person. indeed.
 He will be unwise for two impor tant reasons. The first is that his ser vices will bring him more certain T" ward of substantial character than at any time sirCe the scientific tillinS of the soil was undertaken.
 His prices are certain. Indeed the price sof most foodstuffs and forage will be greater this year, in all prob abillty. than at any other time. The
 mar who does rot farm and farm ev- cry acre to which he can give his at . tent;on or direct the attention of oLb- CTS. will be standing in his own light
 Another reason why there shouh be unprecedented farm activity is the fact that not only does this nation lean heavily upon the agricultural producer, bu: almost the entire wor'f is depending more or less upon the fields and farms of the United State: Without an unusually heavy crop is harvested in this country this year there will be absolute famine in many parts of the world and unnecessarily sever hardships here at home.
 The poor, downtrodden farmer, who has been robbed of his products all his life by the speculator, middle man and consumer, and who has bat just managed to eke out on existence on his broad acres, has come into his own, and is being petted, groomed and curried to support the rest of the world.
 The man with the hoe is the man of the hour.

UNITED STATES

 ADDITIONAL ACRES
Agricultural Expert States That the World Faces Starvation Unless All Crops Are Increased and Waste Is Eliminated.

CHICAGO. May 4.-The burden of saving the world from starvation rests on the shoulders of America. Pres ent indications are that by next win ter there will not be enough food in the United States to feed the nation s own people, let alone send supplies to the suffering multitudes of Europe The only salvation lies in the plant ing of millions of additional acres to foodstuffs and the cutting off of all wastes.
 This was the message borne to Chi cago today by George E. Ferrill of the United States department of agricul- ture. He was in the city short time on tour of the country, making de- tailed study of crop and food condi- tions for the government. MT. Fer Till was in conference with Mayor Thompson and officials of railroads, packing companies and other indus tries in an effort to devise means of further awakening the Middle West to the need of night and day work in putting in crops.
 Conditions are simply appalling when one thinks of what next winter seems certain to bring forth" said Mir. Ferrill. From all the statisti s we can gather, America has only just food enough to last until next fall. I here isn't enough to last until after that. Our fate then rests on wha; we harvest What we harvest depends on what We plant now"
