DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS LAST NIGHT.


 "Headin' South," the Aircraft pie ture now being exhibited at the Coli scum Theatre, is an exceptional Fairbanks production, and is full of action, including the forest of giant castus, two western villages were re- produced at the California studios at great expense. Because of the pecu- liar photographic effects necessary requiring the aid of all sorts of cleo trical apparatus, director Art Ross or. dered the building of these two com plete villages. Expense seems to be the least consideration in Fairbanks pictures.
 ''Headin, South,"s Douglas Fair banks latest picture for Aircraft, gives him the role of western cow boy who takes an active part in trou bles on the Mexican border. Fair banks undertakes some hair-raising stunts" with his fleet pony, Smiles, and the photoplay bristles with gun play and battle in which hundreds of cowboys run down a lawless band of Mexican raiders whose depreda tions have aroused desire for re rtaliation and punishment.
 "Headin' South" is the attraction at the Coliseum Theatre for the last time tonight.

The dip" consists of l ounce of

The dipping should be done on a

SWAT THE PEDIGREED SCRUB HOG

Thousands of pure-bred scrubs
are scattered through this coun-
try, according to hog-eXtension
men of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, who are de-
voting their efforts to eliminat-
ing inferior pedigreed animals.
This, they say, applies to all kinds
of live stock, but is perhaps more
general in the hog industry.
Pedigrees are necessary and val
liable to the hog breeder, yet the
pedigree is the means of fooling
a lot of farmers, particularly
those who are about to start into
the pure-bred hog business and
who have not had enough exper-
fence in judging to select animals
of good standard type. Buyers
should not be contented simply
with pure-bred animals, but,
should see in addition that the
animals they are about to pur-
chase have good quality, say the
department hog specialists.
