AT THE LYRIC.

Viola Dana, the ClcVCr and fascinat-
ing little Metro star, was the attrac-
ton yesterday at the Lyric theater in
an original play entitled The Paris
ian Tigress."
The story Is that of a young girl
of noble birth, left in babyhood in
the care of strangers, who grows up
in the slums Of Paris into a Wild and
untamed child of the gutter, dancing
for a living in the cafes of the Latin
Quarter. Her GanCins partner Is =
young Apache of whom she lives III
constant fear. -
Adventure comes to the girl when
an aristocratic though impoverished
artist finds her and CnCeiVes the idea
of having her impersonat, the long
lost daughter of his wealthy friend so
that he can reap a rich reward.
How romance comes to her when
the mystery of her birth is cleared
and she again enters the sphere Of
life to which she was born, is clever
ly and entertainingiy told in man
ner which brings both laughter ana
tears.
A picked cast Of distinguished
players are seen in support of Miss
Dana among whom are Darrell Foss,
Henry Kolker Edward Connolly,
Clarissa Selwynne; Louis barclay,
Paul Weigel, Mitzi Goodstadt and
Maree Beaudet. The play was direct
ed by Herbert Blaei

A COLOMBIAN SONG OF HATE

RUSH TO SCHOOL LANDS

lands have only disposed of fourth of
the land and will eventually have 3
fund of 100 million dollars as the re-
suit of the big demand for such prop
erty, according to C. V. Savidge, state
land commissioner. "Unearned in
crement" since the war started will
amount to millions. Much of the school
properties have doubled In value since
tle war opened.
The commissioner said:
THE state has about "a million
acres of school lands. About mil
lion acres are for the aid of the public
! schools and y million acres for the
| normals, college, university and othei
institutions.
"Our school funds realized from the

LABOR QUESTIONS
SOLVED BY MOTOR

Motor cars are not only assisting in
the solution of transportation difficult
ties whore there are no railroads and
where roads are short of hauling
equipment, but are also making them
selves an important factor in solving
the labor problems of large employers.
The great potash fields at Searles
lake, in tine allNdli regions of southeast
crn California, are difficult of access
because Of their remoteness and the
lack of adequate railway facilities.
Consequently, the labor problem always
mas been more or less troublesome 70
the potash industry. The motor ear
was once suggested as a means of
transporting laborers from Los An
geles to Searles Lake, but the thought
Of the terrible roads through the des-
ert region promptly dissuaded anyone
inclined toward the experiment.
The idea persisted, however. and
ultimately proved itself not only feas-
ihle but profitable. Today. w. IL.
Hagans makes it his business. He
drives the 100 miles from Los Angeles
TO Searles Lake, through the desert
roads between Lancaster Borosolvay
and Trona, every day. With him on
every trip go ten passengers, and the
trip is made in seven hours and a half,
despite the rough roads. An idea OF
these roads may be had from Mr. Ha-
gans' statement that 49, 500 miles is
the limit for the best cord tires, and
this on car known to give the maxi
mum in tire mileage"

BATTERY FILLER

Many car owners have suffered the
annoyance of trying to pour distilled
water into their storage batteries and
having much of it slop over. Here is
a little device that makes this oper-
alton accurate and easy. Drill a hole
in the cork that fits an appropriately
sized bottle. Into this hole thrust a
quill or glass tube. Next drill small
hole in the neck of the bottle, just
about where it swells out into the body.
The flow of water can be regulated
by covering and uncovering this hole,
which admits air to the bottle.

GOOD COVERING FOR SILAGE
Run in CornstaIks From Which Ears
Have Been Removed-Top Is
Thoroughly Tramped Down.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Several years ago it was a common
practice to cover the silage with some
material such as dirt or cut straw, in
order to prevent the top layer from
spelling. At present when any provi-
sion at all is made for this purpose it
consists usually in merely running in
on top cornstalks from which the ears
have been removed. By this method
some of the corn grain is saved. The
heavy green cornstalks pack much bet.
ter than straw does and so exclude the
air more effectually. The top is thor.
oughly tramped and then wet down.
Sometimes oats are sown on the top be.
fore wetting. The heat generated by
the fermenting mass will cause the oats
to sprout quickly and form a dense
sod, which serves to shut off the air
from the silage beneath, and in con-
sequence only very shallow layer
spoils. Whenever possible, it is better
to begin feeding from the silo as soon
as it is filled; by doing this no cover
ing is necessary and there should be no
loss on account of spelling.
