The closing episode of the
Hidden Hand" will be given at
the local picture show Saturday
night. There will also be a reel
of the Allies official war views,
being fascinating pictures of some
of the soldiers who have achieved
one of the greatest Allied victories,
and scenes of the great battle;
American heros at Cambria; !;
French soldiers returning to their
homes for a rest; British tank and
it's trophy-a German cannon;
camel caravans moving forward
from Jerusalem; where America
holds the line, scenes serious and
in a lighter vein of our boys who
are winning glory over there. "
To see these pictures gives you q
better understanding of what you
read in the newspapers. Ad-
mission only 5 and 10 cents.

More Cows Poisoned

THE BLADES warning to farmers
of the danger in pasturing stubble
fields where there is second growth
cane, did not reach its readers in
time to save Harry Landree from
losing seven good milch cows last
week from cane poison. Thursday
morning he turned eleven COWS in
to a stubble field and in less than
an hour all were effected, seven
dying before a veterinary could
reach them. The other four were
saved. The poison found in second
growth cane this year is very rank,
a few bites containing enough to
produce almost instant death to
an animal. The Landree cows
were effected in exactly the same
way as Lloyd Balcom's cows
were a few days before and there
is no doubt but what the cane was
the cause.
