Algerian Heiress
 Weeds American
Escapes From Harem of Danc- ing Women With Maid-"The Road to Love-" Thursday.

Beautiful girls swaying and bend ing to the marvellous music of the Orient, the busy market places of the East where brilliant heaps of gaudy merchandise draw the eye and the purse strings, and the gray, inscrut- able wastes of the desert all figure as a background for the beautiful Lenore Ulrich in her Morosco picture, The Road to Love-" released on the Paramount Program.
 In this picture, which is one of the best this screen favorite has ever done, she takes the part of an Alger- ian beutay, an exotic type for which her appealing style and wide prev ious experience particularly fit her.
 The action takes place in the strange and startling country lying in the hills back of the Algerian coast cities. The picture throbs with the fascination of the far east, and Miss Ulrich appears even more lovely than the native beauties in the gauge and spangles of Hafsa, daughter of the wealthy old Sdi Malik.
 A chance meeting with a young American, Gordon Roberts, who is travelling in the Orient, begins their love story. The young man, knowing the impossibility of meeting her in a conventional way, disguises himself as a peddler He is discovered trying to elope with her.
 Hafsa then falls into the hands of Leila, the mother" of the dancing girls, who has long coveted this great beauty. She does not see Gordon again until she is ordered to dance at great fete where she is offered for sale. Gordon makes a desperate ef- fort to outbid an old sheik who also wants her, but fails.
 By clever strategy the girl out wits the sheik, and Leila helps de- ceive him also, for she discovered that the girl is her own daughter. Thus under the chaperonage of the faithful karan, Bedouin chief who owes his life to the young American, the low CTS depart across the limitless desert on "the road to love-"

ANOTHER HAT IN THE RING

Mr. Editor, will you permit Tax Payer No. 2 to butt in on this deal ? I come not to condemn Tax Payer No. 1, nor the county judge, because they are both loyal and public spir- ited enough to put up one hundred bones each for the improvement of the public roads. We know one of these gentlemen, and think we know the other, and while we know they are both good men and their promises would not be questioned by a single individual on earth, and we know the two hundred bones will be forthcom- ing, yet we would like mighty we'll to see the treasurer's receipt for this sum, and then 1 am sure the rest of us good citizens will join in and SUD- plement this sum. We think the mo- tives of Tax Payer should not be i'm pugned, and we also believe that the county judge is going to make good in the construction of roads. We are all naturally too much disposed to criticise public officials. Instead of criticising let us all get busy and follow the example of Tax Payer and the county judge and do something of substantial nature toward build ing roads. And we should not over look the fact that the streets right here in this beautiful little city in which we live, is just about in as bad, if not worse condition than most of the county roads. We can't expect the county and city officials to do it all with the limited means at their command, but if we are interested, and every man should be, let us get together in some kind of a united and organized effort and get the thing to going. What has become of the Ne vada County Auto Club that was or ganized here about a year ago? Let the president call a meeting of this club, and let every citizen whether he is a member of the club or not, at tend this meeting and assist in for mulating some plans by which the roads and streets can be improved, and then follow this up by doing something. Let every one who is in favor of this more, respond to the call; don't wait to be conscripted; this must be a volunteer service.

HANDLING FARMERS ENEMIES

Numerous requests have come to the county agent for information as to handling some of the farmers "enemies."
 Plant lice may be destroyed by spraying with soap water, made of one pound to five gallons of water To this a small quantity of kerosene may be added and both upper and under side of leaves sprayed. This applies to lice in general-cotton plum, cabbage, turnip, etc.
 In keeping weevils out of seed corn peas, beans, etc, place the seed in a box or any kind of receptacle that may be made practically air-tight and fumigate with bisulphid of car bon at the rate of ID. to 100 bushels of grain.
 The bisulphid (high-life) is placed in pans or dishes and set on top the grain and allowed to evaoprate for "A or AS hours.
 Be sure that no fire is brought near during the Immigration.
 An ointment of 20 parts vaseline to one part iodiform is effective in destroying "stick-tight" f1eas, chick en lice, etc. Do not use fingers in applying.
 The appeal comes time after time to prepare an abundant supply of feed and food. It is gratifying to note with what earnestness the peo- pie are taking hold of this proposi- tion. More of the vacant lots in our towns need to be utilized in growing home garden plants. We are eager to increase the enrolment in the various clubs for boys and girls, es- pecially the canning, corn, peanut and pig clubs, so let the boys and girls do their part by taking up this work. We have over 200 club mem- bers but would love to see it 400. If you do not join you will miss an op- portunity.
 Farmers are urged to look to the meat supply for next year. During January 4,500 lbs. of meat and lard were shipped into Prescott. This leads me to say that we need more pastur- age for hogs. A large per cent of the hogs of the county are kept in lots or small pens.
 Watch for contagious diseases in hogs and cows especially and let us not lose our valuable stock needlessly Hesterly's Drug Store handles serum and virus for hog vaccination. They do not get any profit for handling this, but do it for the convenience of the people at my suggestion.
 The voluntary cash prize money for Nevada county's various clubs is $35 The voluntary cash prize money of Hampstead county for the same pur- pose is $450.00 Compare! Yours for service,
 M. c. FERGUSON,
 County Agent.

concerned were well pleased with the
results of this counting, so far as We
