The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1918-09-14

Next to the number of people in
the world who are reading the war
news comes the number who are
going to the movies. Probably no
one but the blind man remains in
different to the evening story of
the day in the war zone and that
same unfortunate is about the only
one left in these days who remains
Indifferent to the motion picture.
The soldier in. camp and the one at
the front and even the soldier in
hospital is refreshed and entertain
ed with the motion picture and in
addition the whole of the civil popu-
lation at home finds its rest and
pleasure at the movies.
The motion picture producer has
struggled to make the world take
him seriously and in spite of his best
efforts there have been some few
who remained Indifferent. Not, how
ever, the great mass Of the public.
But the best claim that the manager
can put forward for serious appre-
citation is his service in war time.
Samuel Goldfish, head of the Gold
wyn company who is eager that the
motion picture be taken seriously
and who has done as much as any
one man to lift the motion picture
out Of the cheapness in which it
began. has called attention recently
to, the screens value in war time.
And he has prepared a formidable
list of the services that the motion
picture has rendered during the war.
When the average citizen consid-
ers how much his informatio about
the war depends upon what he has
seen at the movies and then multi
plies that by millions it gives a faint
idea of the force the screen may
become 1t has shown the American

garding the outcome of an encoun-

Ratakin, the actor who has coached
her into success on the stage, and
then, in a jealous fury, attempts to
blind her with Vitriol.

Of William Farnum is positively
above criticism. The picture shows
one Of the most realistic fights ever

and Tuesday.
For this production many lavish
settings were erected including the
palace of Gismonda, the church and
the convent. In the representation
of the various scenes, some highly
artistic mob effects have been devils
ed by Edward Jose, the director, who
handled several thousand men and
women with the highest skill.
In the construction Of these i'm
mense sets, solid buildings were
erected on heavy foundations, COW
cred with concrete and cement. This
solidity was necessary in order to
prevent vibration and insure the best
Photographic results.

vent the landing of large forces in France. But
by its foul methods of warfare it has already
sunk many millions of tons of ships. Not only
has that world loss to be than made up but
we have to provide large further tonnage to
keep on sending our soldiers abroad and sup
plying them adequately. We have the uhprece-
denied job of not only feeding army but
other armies and other populations also.
But the ships required for those purposes
only part of what need. Later those ships
will be necessary in bringing back victorious
soldiers from Europe But at present Snd for
some time to come the movement is one of full

The United States is the great reservoir
from which supplies must be drawn. The
nous gain in our exports shows how other
tons are increasingly looking to to sustain
them.
Although our exports may occasionally decline.
still the whole there is every probability of
their increasing not only during the but
after the war. Large areas of Europe are depop-
uIated and devastated. Many of the rich wheat
growing sections including almost all the win
ter-wheat producing areas of Russia, are in the
Germans possession. Conditions in Russia are
chaotic The western European allies produced
in 1917 about 222OO00O0 bushels less than the an
nuaI pre-war average. There great drop
also in the wheat production Of other European
countries Argentina, Australia and India are
producing good crops. But there is no shipping
to move it properly.
While the is on there is big enough de-
mand from our allies in Europe for materials Of
ali KINGS we nave TO supply COAL SIeeI Oil, cot
ton, lumber, rails locomotives and great guam
tity of other products. After the war when the
job of rehabilitating Europe is put through, the
demand upon this country for and manufac-
tured material of ali kinds will be enormous. We
shall also have to replenish the depleted herds of
Europe from cattle. Ours, in fact will
be the task of supplying most of the world.
So it is clear that besides the millions of Of
shipping urgently needed for the army and navy,
we shall need a great permanent merchant
rine. In 1914 only S166OOO.OOO of the than
S2OOOO 600 of our exports carried in Ameri-
can vessels. Even great part OF the cargo
and passenger ships we are using are seized enemy
vessels or requistioned or chartered allied
neutral vessels.
Not only on the Atlantic but on all oceans
must have an abundance of American ships
Since the opening OF the Panama canal, the At
lantic and Pacific oceans have been linked by the

large meat-prOducing fowl in Souther-
Iy sections where the more heavily
feathered Brahma does not stand the
summer well.
Among the popular breeds OF the
general-purpose class there are also
differences in type, adapting breeds to
different uses. The Plymouth Rock
is generally regarded as the type meet
ing the widest range of requirements
in the general-purpOse class.
The Wyandotte is a little smaller
and earlier maturing, but still very
well meated and easy to fatten.
The Rhode Island Red has nearly
the same standards OF weight as the
WyandOtte, but is . more active bird,
not putting on fat so readily. Conse-
quently it approaches the laying type
and is popular with those who want
eggs and meat but want eggs most.
The OrpingtOn is at the other ex-
IRENE in the general-purpose class be
ing a heavier, meatier fowl than the
Plymouth Rock.
Such a list of breeds affords so wide
q range of choice that poultry keep
ers can always select a standard breed
better adapted TO their locality and
their purpose than any nOnstandard
stock they can procure and having
the further advantage OF producing
true to type.

The common classification OF breeds
according 70 their places in the gen
eraI scheme OF poultry production di-
vides them into three principal classes.
laying breeds, meat breeds and gener-
al-purpOse breeds-that is, breeds that
are not as ready and persistent egg
producers as the laying breeds, and
not as meaty and as easy TO fatten
as the meat breeds, yet combine in
one individual fowl very good laying
capacity with very good table quality.
The Leghorn. Minorca, Andalusian,
AncOna and Campine are well-known
breeds OF the laying class the Brahma.
DOrking and Cornish OF the meat
class; the Plymouth Rock, WyandOtte,
Rhode Island Red and Orpington Of
the general-purpose class.
The breeds mentioned as of the lay
ing class, with the exception OF the
MinOrca, are relatively small, very
energetic and lively, mature early, and
are easily kept in good laying condi-
ton The MinOrca Is of larger size
and modified somewhat in the other
particulars mentioned, yet has more
the character OF the laying class than
of any other.
In the meat breeds, there is not the
same uniformity of type that is found
in the laying breeds. The three men
toned differ decidedly. The Brahma
is most popular because il is at the
same time the largest and the most
rugged in constitution. The DOrking
excels in quality OF meat, but is gen
orally considered somewhat lacking in
hardness. The Cornish is rather
hard-meated, but, being very short
feathered. has its special place as
