WIFE USES FORTUNE
TO SAVE HUSBAND.
Another Thrilling Episode in
Serial at Strand Theatre. IS

Probably the best episode yet of
Pathe's serial 1.-THE Neglected Wife,"
showing at the Strand Theatre Mon
day is the fourteenth, which under the
title Desperation" will be a feature of
the bill for this day.
Here briefly is the story:
Horace Kennedy's humiliating de-
nunciation is the last straw for Mary.
She determines to leave him and later
apply for a divorce. The next morn
ing, Kennedy arises late and finds Ma
ry gone, with a note saying that the
only condition on which she will re-
turn home is that he must promise
never to see Margaret again.
Margaret is still afraid that Kenne-
dy will find her and that she might be
unable to resist his influence. Nor
wood visits her, and is very much
pleased to find that she has broken
with Kennedy. Norwood suggests that
the only way to protect herself from
Kennedy is to marry him. Margaret
refuses, saying she cannot.
Having lost income, through neglect
of his business, Kennedy wildly turns
to speculation in an effort to retrieve
his fortune. Bull Brady and Doyle
seize an opportunity to pass a doctored
tip to Kennedy. Kennedy swallows
the bait, and Bull through his influen-
tial connections starts a campaign to
ruin Kennedy.
Mary at her hotel, reads that Ken
nedy is losing heavily in speculation.
Determined to save him, she goes to
Norwood, and pleads with him to use
her fortune to save Kennedy. Nor
wood agrees and she binds him to
secrecy.
Kennedy, desperate, searches for
Margaret, but without avail. Learn
ing that Kennedy has left Mary. Bull
has the story published in the papers,
that the wife of the nominee for con-
gress has left him because of his in
fatuation for another woman. Mary
reads the item, and is deeply distress
ed that her actions should threaten
Kennedy's good name. She still loves
him. Will she save him or not?

Reform at somers Point.

Somers Point, N. j.,
Aug. %, 1917.
Editors Pleasantville Press
In a recent publication of the Som
ers Point Record it was stated that
Somers Point is no back yard for
Ocean City"
The community at large is delighted
to know that a reform is at hand in
Somers Point, as all reforms should
begin at home. For there are other
fumes that have been very offensive,
especially around the lower section of
that city that has been a cesspool for
Ocean City and adjoining communi-
ties, as well as those at home.
Now at this time of high cost of
feed, would it not be charitable to the
poor man and his stock to allow them
to procure this much talked of gar
bage until the grain is harvested and
price of it reduced?

Readers Gieen Wrong Dope.
Editors Pleasantville Press
In the last issue was a paragraph
stating that the Salem nine won a
series of sever games from 1.-THE
Macs of the Presbyterian S. S. This
is a very bad mistake.~In the first
place 1.-THE Macs were never notified
that a series of seven games was to be
played with Salem, therefore there
wasn't any series to be won. In the
second place The Macs" have played
Salem nine games in all, and of the
whole nine games Salem has won only
three, and they were only by the aid
of the umpire. So you see, readers of
The Pleasantville Press, that Salem
never won any series, which they claim
doing, and THE Macs say they
will win any series from them.

ARRANGE QUARTERS FOR Ram
He Rough Treatment Of Ewes ls
Source Of Great Loss to Farmer
Keep Him Separated.

Allowing the ram to stay with the
ewes through the winter and spring
until lambing or shearing time is not
always the best practice. It's good
for the ram in case the ewes are well
fed; he will get the lions share, occu-
by the space for three ewes at the
trough and rack, and grow fat and
abusive. He will choose to eat where
the ewes have peacefully lined them
selves up rather than take an open
place where feed is untouched, writes
r. A. Hayne in National Stockman and
Farmer. He stalks about and bunts the
ewes out of his way on all occasions.
His rough treatment, bunting his
way and crowding up to feed racks Is
q source Of abortions and premature
births.
Sheep values justify every care to
increase numbers and values Of next
years lamb crop.
Better arrange to put his ramship
in other quarters than the W fold.
That doesn't mean to isolate him In
some small, dark, damp corner of the
barn basement or to exile him to a
back lot without shelter or regular
feed,

THE CUB SAYS

George Davis lives between Basal
and Monroe and he and his sons have
done a lot of leveling this spring
Their land is very rolling and while
they were waiting for the snow tC
go off and the ground to get dry
enough for field work they were busy
grading the dry patches. They are
planning to do ONE building and II
crops are good they will do it next
fall. They spread about 200 loads
of manure on their place during the
winter and spring. Mr.. Davis keeps
some livestock on the farm and is
planning to feed all the products OF
the farm right on the place with the
exception of sugar beets that are con
tracted for the factory.
The three Webb brothers and a
cousin have dry farms near Spring
field and they are leasing the L. D.
Cox place Of 124 acres, south of Mon
roe. They want to get a tractor for
blowing and are much interested In
the experimental work being done by
those machines. w. A. Webb is do
ing the farming on the Cox place.
Mr.. Cox has a flume about five or
six hundred feet long and about 20
feet high some of the way. 1t is
made of galvanized iron pipe sup
ported by a wooden trestle. The ap-
proaches to the flume are built of
earth and take up considerable space.
A comparison of the two methods of
conducting water by the earth dyke
o1l %h1 no1ropt1aI trNn HIIpon 70 J0ro
the flume very empathically. The
earth fill calls for a great amount of
dirt and much expense hauling it
and the slopes of the fill produce an
aboundant crop of weeds and any
attempt to keep it pastured down by
sheep and other animals grazing
there, results in a great loss. There
is an absolute loss of a wide belt of
land and the attention of the weed
menace. The loss of water from
seepage in the earth flume is consid-
cradle. The metal fume does not
leak, was quickly and easily con
structed and the land under it can
be utilized and teams can pass under
it at any point, while If it were an
earth fill clear across the teams
would have to 60 around it and thus
cause much loss of time. The earth
fill requires frequent repairing and
the galvanized iron f1ume will last
for a long time without repairing. >

miles above town, and plans are
made whereby the work on the dam,
canals and laterals of the irrigation
project will be pushed to the utmost.

ERADICATE ALL OK MARBLES
Hides Are Lessened In Value and Milk
Production Decreased by Pres
ence Of Grubs.

When you find small Jumps on the
back of an animal with round open
ings in them, squeeze them and the
grub that burrows under the hide will
be found. These r OK MARBLES. Kill
them, for they are n link in the life
cycle of the OK MARBLE fly.
Hides are reduced in value from I
to 2 cents a pound by the presence Of
OK MARBLES. Flesh is sometimes so
damaged as to be unfit for sale. Milk
production is lessened by the presence
Of numerous grubs. Cattle in general
are annoyed seriously by these war
bles. Removing and destroying all the
grubs from infested cattle will reduce

Virgil Fielding, of Goshen, has a

feet across, attached to his sulky
plow and the ground is narrowed the
moment the plow turns it over. He
uses four horses on the sulky and
all the horses walk on the hard
ground in the furrow while drawing
the plow and harrow. The field that
Virgil prepares is not trodden down
at all by the narrowing process. Mr..
Fielding is planting 16 acres Of
wheat, 6k Of oats, 16 of potatoes
and IA Of beets. James Fielding has
about 80 head of hogs and is in doubt
as to whether to keep them and sac
riice expensive feed or sell them.
Levi Cox, of Goshen, had sever
acres of potatoes last year that yield
ed 1,40O sacks. He planted beets on
the ground and they froze down, then
he planted the potatoes to the same
land a little later on. He had IL
acres of other potatoes that yielded
about 1875 sacks per acre. Mr.. Coz
says he has sold potatoes at 27 cents
per hundred and furnished the sacks
and hauled them to the railroad. The
sacks he had to use were of large
caliber and he strained his back
handling them and swore off raising
potatoes after that. After a number
of years he changed his mind and be-
gan to raise spuds again with the
results above mentioned for 1915.
He received more money than he
knew what to do with. He is plant

The less a SOW is disturbed at far

reason she should be kept separate

one should be on hand, unless she
needs assistance, 1t is best to keep
away from her. If it does become
necessary to help, do it as quietly as
possible. AS the pigs are. not able
