very unpopular with the family just
now. He reckOns time from bag full
Of fTl-gotten marbles, and has reduced
the use OF soap and water TO a fine

Enthusiastic Pig Club Member With
His Prize Pig
the production of meat and teaching
the members good business methods.
Not a few bankers have made it pos
sible for worthy club members to Sc
cure pigs on their personal notes. In
this way a well-bred pig is obtained
through the efforts of a county agent
or pig club leader or specialist and
a banker. The member is given the
opportunity TO pay for it from the pro-
ceeds OF the pig as a meat animal or
from the sale Of offspring In case OF a
breeding animal. Often the member
enters into business agreement with
the parents cOnsent) with the bank
er and thus secures 8 pig when 9TH
erwise it would have been impossible
for the child TO have Joined the club.
In other instances the bankers have
bought bred gifts to be bred and
given them to club members with the
understanding that two pigs were to be
returned for the original gilt loaned
These pigs in turn are lent to other
children. This plan is the so-caIled
endless chain contract. Either plan
has resulted in increasing interest in
pig clubs with its accompanying ex-
pansion in the supply OF pork products
and the instruction in swine husbandry
which is part of the club work. The
banker thus helps to lay a foundation
for the prosperity which will be last
ing. The money received from the
sale Of hogs will be expended in fur
Their developing the county. Every
merchant in the county will profit, the
banks viii get more deposits, and the
farmers will have more money with

CALL FOR MORE CORN

Wheat excepted, corn is the
most valuable and indispensable
of the worlds grain crops. 1t
holds a commanding position in
the agriculture OF the United
States. It's vast acreage and
heavy yields are responsible to
no small extent for the success
Of agriculture. The department
of agriculture, in its program is
sued early in February, which
re-emphasized and amplif1ed the
food production program for
1918 published by the depart
ment in August, 1917, recon-
mended that an acreage of corn
approximately equal to that Of
1917, which was the largest on
record, should be planted in
1918, with possibly slight reduc-
lions in certain sections to free
areas for spring wheat. In 1917
the acreage devoted to corn was
approximately 1875, 900 acres,
compared with 105,672, 900 acres,
the average for 1911-15, and
with 1O7,OS3,O 900 acres for 1912
and 106, 197, 900 acres for 1915.

will thus be enabled to bring supplies
from Birmingham via the Southern

Another connection which is also
said to be under way is the P. NJ. and

Reports are to the effect that the

ice Brady in Her Silent Sacrifice" at
Isis Today

Its quite true" said Edward Jose,
who directed the production of Her
Silent Sacrifice" which will appear at
the Isis theatre today, that there are
no sluggards in the motion pictures !:
but even at that, Miss Brady can give
cards and spades to most of the film
actresses whom l have met. Where
the average actress will often waste
precious daylight hours making me go
over the scenario with her, Miss Brady
and I always hold these conferences in
advance during the evenings at her
house.
But what is far more interesting and
important is that Alice Brady's won
derful adaptability, versatility and read
mess to grasp the situation permits me
to work with her in a speedy, friction
less and efficient manner. Tedious rep
etitive rehearsals are unnecessary for
this remarkable girl-for that's all she
really is, young charming miss-we
go over the action once and then pro-
coed to film it. The uninterrupted de-
velopment of the main character and
the smooth unrolling of the story which
result, go far to explain the artistic
finish of all of Miss Brady's produc-
tions"
This Is very high praise, indeed, and
will undoubtedly crafty Miss Brady
hugely when it comes to her ears, for
Mr.. Jose stands high in the ranks of the
foremost directors in the motion pic
ture field. And the man who achieved
such successes with Poppy" and 1.-The
Moth" maintains, with real enthusiasm
that Alice Brady Will add to her re-
nown with the series of pictures she
is making for the Select Star Series, of
which 'Her Silent Sacrifice" is her first
production.
