100000 head, the number that will be required to
properly supply the population with milk.
Back in 1914 the English were importing four

meat supply. The new program will certainly put

mark in English farming
viii Guarantee Prices to Farmers
Success with the national "after the war farm
scheme" depends largely on what kind Of price

the farmer for his principal crops. The depart

Sir Charles is constantly pointing out that big
crop production here in England Is going to be
one Of the factors settling the nations war debt
He has warned that England must not go
hack to her old ways and spend three hundred
millions year for imported food. Our exports
vould have to pay for that food before they paid
for anything else and 1t would be an utterly un-
necessary expenditure. The food is here In our
own country only waiting to be taken out Of the

Sleeping

How Method of Fighting This
Pest Inspired Manufacture of
Sweet Dreams Mosquito Rem
edy.

A traveller in relating his various
experiences in Africa, casually men
toned how the natives protected them
selves against the ravages of the
Tsetse fly. AS is generally known, the
bite of this fly results in sleeping
sickness" a malady from which no
unfortunate ever RECEIVERS.
1t was reasoned that a remedy cap
able of keeping off these flies would
also keep mosquitoes off. So in
America this remedy was reproduced
as nearly as possible. Having been
found exceptionally satisfactory as a
mosquito remedy, this mixture has
since been offered in commerce under
the trade name of Sweet Dreams. The
efficiency of the preparation has caus-
ed it's immediate acceptance every
where. And the traveller doesn't yet
know that his entertaining story re-
suited in the birth of an industry.
When mosquitoes are troublesome,

"The knickerbocker Buckaroo" Last

The A. E. F. ranked Douglas Fair
banks as it's favorite actor accord
ing to Homer Croy, Of the Y. NJ. C. A.
That opinion would doubtless find
considerable backing among the folks
who stayed at home. Doug" is one
of Americas favorites, and everybody
from the president down likes his pic
lures. When the history of the screen
in America comes to be written, Fair
banks name will loom large as one
of those whose personality not only
helped to bring the motion picture
before the public, but one of those who
actually changed the type of picture
presented to the public. Mr.. Fair
banks has brought to the screen the
gospel of good cheer, the spirit of
never say-die'' and the breeziness of
his own magnetic individuality. Every
one of his pictures is a point against
the demon crouch. and every one car
ries lesson in optimism, none the
less potent for its sugar coating. That
was the sort of stuff that appealed to
the A. E. F., and that is the sort of
stuff that appeals to most Americans.
Never a Fairbanks picture yet that
sent an audience out sade-eyed and
signing. Nobody can go to a Fair
banks film and not be vitalized. Doug s
breeziness is infectious. And The
Knickerbocker Buckaroo," whose very
name is full of pep" promises to be
one of the fastest bits of Fairbankian-
ism yet shown. It's a swift story, and
Douglas, after spending five months
producing it, breaks all records, taking
every hill on high.
