SAVE LABOR BY
SEED-CORN SELECTION
The Larger the Crop on Given Area
as the Result Of Good Seed the
Less Man Power Is Required
to Produce a Bushel.

Washington, D. c., September 10
Saving seed corn saves labor This is
one of the main reasons for careful
seed-corn selection, says the United
States Department of Agriculture
which points out that just as much
labor is often employed in producing
nubbins as would be required to grow
full ears. The more bushels of corn
to the acre, as the result of good seed,
the less the labor required to grow
each bushel.
To save labor during the prepare
ton, of the ground, and the planting.
cultivation, and harvesting of the
crop in relation to the quantity Of
corn grown, the wise farmer will now
devote special attention to selecting
two years seed supply. He will not
make seed gathering merely Incl
dental operation, connected with har-
vesting or shocking, but will devote
his whole attention to the selection of
the best ears as they grow in the field,
under the conditions the crop has to
contend with. BY thus using his time
this fall he will save the labor of
many men all next season.
In other words, says the department
the stalk of corn that produced well
under ordinary, field conditions, in
competition with other stalks, is like
ly to transmit high yielding ability to
its seed Where field seed selection
results in doubling the acre yield, the
result is practically equivalent to
cutting down by one-half the labor re-
quired to produce the crop.

GUIFFITH'S Big
TRIUMPH TO Be
BROUGHT HERE
"Hearts of the World" Will BE Big
Feature at the Washington Next
Week-COmes With Own 20
Piece Orchestra.

Hearts of the World" the supreme
triumph of d. w. Griffith, to be pre-
scented at the Washington Theater
next Monday, September 10th, and
twice daily during the remainder of
the engagement, inaugurates new
era in the realm of screen drama. lp
New York, Boston and Chicago this
new Griffith masterpiece has created
a positive sensation, even eclipsing
the master producers two produc-
tions, "The~ Birth of a Nation" and
Intolerance"
In this, his latest achievement, Mr.
Griffith did not attempt to create and
stage gigantic battle scenes and pag-
eantry but actually used the present,
the greatest of all Wars as a back"
ground for the filming of a simple but
compelling story of tremendous hui
man interest, a story of love and sac
rifice
Hearts of the World" shows the
happy, peaceful life of the people of
small French village before the grim
horror War reared it's ugly head over
the horizon. The causes that led up
to the war are shown; the meeting of
the British Parliament on the event
full night when vote was cast for war;
the session of the French Senate vot-
ing upon a declaration of war; the
session of the cabinet awaiting the ia
tai hour when the ultimatum to Ger
many would expire. These scenes
come as a prelude; then the great
drama begins, the German hordes en-
ter France.
In taking the battle pictures for
Hearts of the World" Mr.. Griffith had
the assistance and cooperation of the
British and French War Offices and
both he and his company of players
which include Lillian and Dorothy
Gish, Robert Harron, George Waw-
cett and Master Ben Alexander, were
constantly within range of the Ger
man guns and were often compelled
to seek safety in British trenches or

ENLIST AS A RECRUITER

Not all of the recruiting for Uncle
Sam right now is in the hands of the
army and the navy. A big lot of very
important and effective work will
shortly be in the hands of the civil
ians. Work that will emphatically
supplement the armed effort.
For the Fourth Liberty Loan is
rapidly approaching.
Most OF u.s. expect to buy bonds
Some of us inevitably must enter the
ranks. Many will do neither, unless
personal influence is brought to bear.
+ But for all of us the duty is equal,
there is no immunity.
And for those of us who have
bonds, and expect TO do so again, full
duty will not end with the act of pur-
chase
We must enlist as recruiters for the
bonds.
For more than half-o of the army and
navy expense the coming year must
be met from the bond sales. And it
is imperatively necessary to the best
accomplishments of both branches of
our fighting force, that they be always
adequately equipped,
And unless our army, our navy, and
those of our allies are always kept
at the top NOTCH of fighting efficiency,
able to strike most effectively ON the
shortest possible notice and prepared
to follow uD every advantage with the
least possible loss of time and force,
this war will be drawn out intermin-
ably with corresponding loss of life
and increase of expense.
All of us want to see the war end
speedily. All of us want allied vic
tory.
So arrange your affairs to give
Uncle Sam your time as well as your
money.
