NANCE O'NEIL IN
GREED" IS NEXT OF
SEVEN DEADLY SINS

Nance O'Neil in "Greed," one of the
famous group of Seven Deadly Sins.
presented by Mcclure Pictures, will be
shown at the Star theatre on next
Thursday.
In "Greed" Nance O'Neil is sup
ported by a notable cast, including
Shirley Mason, George lie Guere, Har-
ry Northup, Robert Elliott and Alfred
Hickman. It is a, throbbing story of
Wall street and studio life, a drama
tization from an entirely new angle
Of the well-known theme "the love of
money is the root of all evil"
Nance O'Neil is one of the most
famous actresses in motion pictures, a
keen portrayer of human emotions and
especially famous for "big" scenes
Miss Mason and Mr.. lie Guere, who
appear as the sweethearts in each of
the Seven Deadly Sins, have in
Greed" the most dramatic parts they
have yet attempted.
The story tells of Eve Leslie who
wants to become rich. She plunges
in Wall street and finds herself entan-
gled in deep intrigue. II is a throb-
ing exposure of big business and mon
ey madness. A murder mytery de-
velops that is not solved until the last
hundred feet Of film, when by a re-
markable ingenious twist George lie
Guere is saved from dying for a crime
he did not commit.
A clever touch comes in a studio
party during which couples start out
into New York at night with only ten
cents each, seeking adventure which
they quickly find.
Theodore Marston, the director, is
famous for his Wall street stories, and
Greed" is by far the best thing of his
that has yet appeared upon the screen.

FOOD CONSERVATION

AlDED bl EhNAEN
Santa Fe, N. NJ, July State Land
Commissioner Robert P. Ervien today
made public what are regarded as f.
nal figures for this season on the acre
age of the states leased grazing lands
planted to crops by the leaseholders,
under the permit of the state land of
e to plant crops on such lands during
the period of the war without addition
al rental. A total of 22,44l acres are
shown as in crops on grazing leases
- figures including returns up to
July LIST. 1t is not expected that any
material additions to the acreage will
be made this season although assur-
ances received from several hundred
holders of grazing leases indicate that
large will be broken during
the autumn, either for planting winter
wheat, or in preparation for cropping
in the season of 1918.
The land commissioners permit to
farm grazing leases did not issue uR
til April, when the movement for in
creasing food production in New Mex
leo began. While the land office was
ready with the permit early in the
movement, it was still too late for
many leaseholders to change their
plans for the season, or to secure
equipment and labor for breaking raw
land. Because Of the short notice the
result obtained is regarded as salts
factory for a first season, and informa-
ton reaching the land Office from all
over the state is that probably double
the leased acreage now in crops will
be broken this fall for planting in 1918.
With the permit to farm, the land
commissioner issued to all leaseholders
an urgent appeal to adhere as closely
as possible to the recommendation Of
state agricultural college experts and
plant only corn, beans, sorghum and
other forage crops, and potatoes where
the climate and soil conditions were
suitable. How closely the grazing
lease farmers have followed this ad-
yice is shown by the fact that of the
22,441 acres actually in crops, more
than half are planted to the big four,
corn, beans, forage crops and pota-
toes.
Every county in the state, except
Bernalillo, is represented in the re-
turns on planting done by grazing
lea%seholders. The returns show 4426
acres in beans, l146 in Kafir, 1918 in
milo maize, 1921 in wheat and 1861 in
Irish potatoes. The remainder of the
acreage is divided among barley, oats,
millet, cOwpeas, feterita Sudan, broom
corn and truck.
