SUPREME COURT GIVES MOVIE"
DECISION.
Heralded as Most Important Event in
Film History.

The supreme court of the United
States has just handed down de-
.ision as important to the motion pic
ture industry as the decision on the
Adamson 8-hour law was to the rail-
road industry of the country.
By this decision the Universal Film
Manufacturing Company wins out in
its fight against the Motion Picture
Patents Company in the Latham
Loop" case, and defeats the attempt
to prevent motion picture theatres
from showing any films save those
permitted by one company, which
claimed control Of essential patents.
Since the Universal Film Manufac-
turing Co. took the struggle into
the courts, the legal battle has been
one of the most interesting in history.
Carl Laemmle, president of the Uni.
versal Company, has kept in personal
touch with all phases Of the case in
its progress through court after court
to the highest in the land. = ft
This decision is the biggest and
best thing that has happened in the
motion picture business" he declared
when interviewed after the announce
ment was made. IF we had lost this
suit, the motion picture theatres of
this country would have suffered
calamity. We have really fought the
battle Of the entire industry arsl safe
guarded Others rights We feel par
ticularly proud because we fought the
fight alone, after all the other pro-
ducers had failed to answer our ap-
peal to chip in and stand the terrific
expense
IF the Universal had not defended
the case and fought il through, every
exhibition in the country, every mo-
ton picture theatre, might now be
using only such pictures as the Pa
tents Company permitted them to use.
In other words, the motion picture in
dustry would be in the hands Of one Of
the highest monopolies The world ever
saw.
Il believe that this decision means
much TO the success Of the motion
picture industry and to the quality Of
pictures produced for the public

SWEET CORN

The Extension Service of the Uni

Sweet corn is one of our most i'm

termed sweet on account Of the higl
saceharine content of the kernels
when in the proper condition for eat
ing. 1t is. somewhat more delicate
and slow in starting than most crops
and therefore requires little more
thorough soil preparation. As one
Vermont farmer says: IT'S much

GARDEN BEANS

Information issued by the Extension
Service Of the University OF Vermont,
| All classes Of beans are lcgumes, q
| group Of plants noted for the high
/ food value Of their seed and forage,
being especially rich in protein and
containing much starch.
Dry beans are the highest in food
values Of all vegetables, fresh shelled
/ kidney beans are second, and fresh
shelled limas third, while fresh string
beans are Of small food value due to
the scarcity Of seeds and the large
amount of pod.
Considering palatability and food
value together, il is well to so manage
and plant the garden as TO insure
plenty Of beans, plenty in the string or
snap stage the surplus TO be canned
or allowed to mature.
Beans are more susceptible to cold
than peas so they should not be plant
ed until danger Of frost has passed
and the soil begins to be warm. To
secure continuous supply, it is de-
sirable TO makcplantings at intervals
Of 10 days to two weeks beginning
May 10th TO Goth, to continue until
July 1st For string beans the edible
pods are usually ready to pick in from
six to 10 weeks, thus the first plant
ings can be followed by some fall
crop.
A sweet clay loan soil is considered
best for growing field beans, but the
ordinary garden soil will do very well.
For string and she'll beans the rows
should be two feet apart and should
be seeded thick enough to get plants
two TO four inches apart. Beans of
any kind should not be planted deeper
than two inches which is necessary to
reach moist soil and secure good
termination. Varieties that can be
relied upon are: Green Snap, Early
Refugee and Early Red Valentine,
Wax, Golden Wax, and Wardwell's
Kidney Wax; for a green shell, Horti
cultural or Cranberry.
Lima beans are not a sure crop in
the average Vermont garden. Hen
derson's Improved Bush Lima or
Dreer's Bush Lima are good to try.
Cultivation can be helped greatly by
making a good, deep, clean seed-bc1,
before planting the seed. After the
rants are p light cultivJtor should
be used to old throwing soil around
the plants. When they are strong and
well established, use the heavy cult
vator and throw soil enough about
the plants to smother the small weeds. |
One deep cultivation is sufficient, ard
should be followed with the spike
tooth to avoid cutting roots which
soon reach out into the center of the
rows. Continue cultivation until TIE
plants are full grown. Never cult
yate when the leaves are wet for fear
of spreading such diseases as anthrac-
nose and bacteriosis.
The Manchester journal. [volume] (Manchester, Vt.) 1861-current, 1917-05-03
VEGETABLES USED FOR GREENS

The Extension Service of the Uni
yersity, of, Vermont recommends tina
the garden contain at least one of tn
crops which follow, to be used TO
greens,-beet, chard, dandelion, mus
tard, kale; spiaach, and New Zealanc
spinach.
Spinach is the one crop generally
grown for greens, the round seeded i
used for spring planting and prickly
seeded for autumn planting to re.
main over winter. 1t is a cool season
crop and tends to 90 TO seed in warn
weather. Seed should be sown in
drills 10 to Is inches apart, and az
the plants begin to crowd the large
ones are taken out for cooking, thus
saving the work Of thinning.
New Zealand spinach is entirely
different from common spinach. Il.
will stand hot weather without going
70 seed, and grows continuously
through the summer and fall, spread
ing long main branches over the
ground from which new growth APP
pears. The parts used for green
are the clusters Of leaves forming the
tips OF the growing laterals. A good
bed Of plants growing on rich soil
viii furnish the best hot weather sub
stitute for spinach.
The beet plant is quite hardy era
is planted in early spring for early
use, the thinning being done when the
first bects are large enough fo
greens. Mustard S used ID tie sa
way as spinach, but seldom is subs
btcd for it, Kaie rs plant Of lte
cabbage group, bearing lorg curcd
and erinkled leaves, which are = z
for greens.
Chard, known. as Swiss chard ms
leaf beet, is easy 70 grow. This plart
is a sure cropper even under adverse
weather conditions, producing new
leaves continuously, qualities tending
10 make il q valuable garden crop.
