letic series of pictures, and a two reel
Keystone comedy. A long program,

A great deal has been written and
printed about the picture, II Believe u
but fair conception of it can only be
obtained by seeing it on the screen
It will be shown at Dreamland Fri
day, matinee and evening. Critics pro.
nounce it one of the really great pic
lures of the past twelve months.
The feature picture for Saturday is
a patriotic production, 1.-THE Gown OF
Destiny" with Alma Reubens as the
star. While in no sense a war picture
it has number Of intensely interest
ing scenes, particularly one showing
the allies going lover the top" and
capturing German trench, with a
most realistic showing Of scenes in
'No Mans Land" Two acts of vaude
vile will be included in Saturdays
program.
A picture that will appeal to every

TAKES OFF DANDRUFF,
HAIR STOPS FALLING
Save your Hair! Get a small bottle
OF Danderine right now-AIso
stops itching scalp.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of neglected
scalp; of dandruf-tha awful scarf.
There is nothing 80 destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of it's lustre, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing feverish-
ness and itching Of tie scalp, which if
not renedied causes the hair roots to
shrink, loosen and He-then the hair
falls out fast. A little Danderine to-
nlght-now-any time-wiH surely save
your hair.
Get a small bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store. You
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try little Dan
derine. Save your hair! Try it.!

Predatory animals and Rodents.

The losses from animals injurious to
agriculture and to animal husbandry
nre enormous. Native rodents cause
losses Of grain, forage and other agri'
cultural products estimated at more
than $15O,OOO,OO0. House rats and
mice levy toll Of 5000, 100000 upon
the nations food supply. On the
western cattle ranges predatory AMI.
mails alone cause losses of live stock
amounting to $4,000 900 to 10000 900
annually. Methods Of eradication have
been developed, especially In the case
Of rodents, which will make II possible
to reduce the losses at relatively
small expense. The department will
vigorously prosecute Its activities In
this field and will assist farmers In
every feasible way, in cooperation
with the extension forces Of the states
to control or eliminate these pests.

More Beans. Peas. Peanuts.

As important features of its supple
mentary program for feeding the ma.
tion, its armies, and the allies, the
United States department Of agricul-
ture recommends that great attention
be paid to the production Of beans,
peas and peanuts. On these subjects
the program states:
"The production of beans and peas
should be increased In regions to
which they are adapted, because Of
their high food value, keeping qunli.
ties, and availability for domestic or
export trade.
"Soy beans and peanuts should he
increased In order to supplement beans
and peas as human food, as source
Of much-needed oil, and as anima!
feeds.
"The production Of beans Inst year
In the six leading states increased
from 10,715,0O0 bushels to 15.701. 900
bushels. and peanuts from 35,324.5OO
bushels TO 6O.o22.OOO bushels. But
these increases proved to be greatly
needed, and there Is every indication
that large increases will be readily ab.
sorbed In 1918.
"The peanut Is especially valuable
because Of the oil II contains. for
which the need Is great. In the South,
especially. soy beans and peanut meal
are proving very satisfactory as par
tial substitutes for wheat. Both soy
beans and peanuts are Of great value
as forage crops"
