Cotton prices have lately heen
going down, despite the end of the
war and a small crop. If we make
the 1919 crop with high priced la
Dor. fertilizer and feeds, and then
have to take 10 or 20 cents for it
next fall, cotton growers are going
to lose heavily. The only way to
prepare for such contingency is to
fortify ourselves with an abundance
of food and feed crops. As Secre-
tary of Agriculture Houston points

The wise policy for Southern
farmers to pursue in 1919 is to make

THE Revelations of Wife" that
will be offered for public approval
at the Burtis in Davenport, Sunday
and Monday, matinee and night, IS
described as the most daring and
sensational of recent plays 1t is,
nevertheless, a subject now being
debated in every home in the civ
ilized world. A play for mother
father, sister and brother-in other
words, What God hath Joined to-
gether, let no man rent asunder"

very mysterious play of Marriage
and Divorce" Presented for your
approval by an exceptionally
strong cast and metropolitan play
ers that have helped make Broad
way successes, it is full of dramatic
moments that hold you spelIbound
until the final drop of the curtain
on this mysterious four-act play.

mand for seats, the management
has decided to play daily matinees

inees are for ladies only at which
a lecture on marriage and divorce
will be given. Nights are for every
body over 16 years of age.

May Robson in ''Tish,"
Mary Rinehart's Play,
Coming to the Burtis

May Robson's coming to the Bur
tbs in Davenport in her new COM
edy, 'Tish," is being anticipated
by the host of admirers in this city
of this charming Coincidence. Her
admirers will not be disappointed
in this new comedy, which was
made for the stage by Edward E.
Rose, from the Letitia Carberry
stories, written by Mary Roberts
Rinehart, and recently published in
the Saturday evening Post.
Critics are unanimous in their
praise of Miss Robson in her pres
ent comedy Offering "Tish" is in
deed, not only a worthy successor
to The Regeneration of Aunt
Mary" and "A Little Bit Old Fash
ioned." but is a play much more
suited to the exceptional talents of
this charming comedienne. The
Letitia Carberry stories of Mary
Roberts Rinehart, recently pub
Iished by the Saturday Evening
Post, and afterward in book form,
have been almost universally read,
and the host of admirers of Miss
Robson will be delighted with this
comedy which is better fitted to
her unique personality than any
play she has had during recent
seasons.
In the comedy "Tish" theatrego-
ers will be treated to the latest ad-
dition to the humorous, whimsical,
great hearted type of femininity
which this Coincidence so incOm-
parably delineates.
After a short preliminary tour of
the principal cities Miss Robson
will present "Tish" in New York
city, and judging by the wonderful
success of the play on the road,
the play should find immediate ia
vor in no small degree with met
ropolitan audiences.
Miss Robson will play an en-
gagement of two days, starting
Monday, Oct. 6.

Among Those Present" Is a
rapid little musical capsule with
songs, dances, artistic ensembles,
snappy repartee and cleverly done
situations, to say nothing about the
brilliant scenic effects and excel
lent Costuming. The act is bound
to be one of the hits of the season
as it comes with some of the high
est recommendation ever accorded
a vaudeville act.
Minnie Stanley & Co. in Save"
will offer something described as
unique in the matter of a pilot The
act dilates upon the subject of
domestic MISUNDERSTANDING and
has as a base certain aspects Of
married life we'll known to every

delightfully."- breezy, well con-

Now comes Danny Simmons, the

Billy Burke at Best
in Make-Believe Wife
Comedy of Mountains

One of the strongest photoplays
in which charming Billie Burke, the
popular Paramount star, has been
seen in many months, is THE
Make-Believe Wife" which will be
displayed at the Best theatre Sun
day. It abounds with strong situa-
tions, while the comedy is happily
blended so that there isn't dull
moment throughout the develop
ment of the story.
The scenes of the story develop
in the Adirondack mountains
where Phyllis Ashbrook is giving
a house party to a coterie of
friends. She is engaged to marry
a lawyer. but he seems to be de-
voted to a young woman who is
the fiancee of John Manning,
who, by the way, pays more at
tention to Phyllis than he does
to Anita, his promised bride.
Manning and Phyllis are lost in
the mountains, seek refuge in a
cabin and TO save the reputation
of the young woman, Manning
agrees to wed her and to permit
her later to obtain a divorce.
This provokes a series of de-
1ightful situations, all of which
contribute to the enjoyableness
of the story. Miss Burke's sup
port is excellent, her leading man
being David Powell.

Special Stage to Be
Erected at Spencer
for Bathing Beauties

With the coming of the extra
ordinary booking of Mack sennett's
bathing girls and Yankee Doodle
IN Berlin" to the Spencer Square
tomorrow, Carl Mueller. the man
ager, was confronted with the per-
picking problem Of how he was
going to do It," A beautiful and
modern photoplay theatre, but no
stage, and the Mack Sennett's beau
ties must have a stage in order to
properly display their now famous
and artistic forms and worldly
Costume" creations.
This staggering" problem was
at last solved last evening by Mr..
Mueller In announcing that he
would build a temporary stage for
the girls" so Immediately follow
ing the performance tonight, a
force Of carpenters will take pos
session of the Spencer Square, and
on Sunday afternoon patrons I'M
doubtedly will be astonished on
entering the theatre to find a seem
ingiy modern stage all set and
ready for the first appearance in
Rock Island of the California
studio beauties, displaying their
own special scenery and electrical
effects.
The shapely, wholesome and
beautiful models Of feminine per
lection will be seen in person in
their fetching contumery and in
an act specially designed and
lighted to reveal them at their ath-
leic best.
Bigger even than Sennett's re-
cent success, Mickey" comes now
his latest screen feature. Yankee
Doodle in Berlin and in it Sen
nett, while resuming his role of
humorist. satirist and burlesque
expert. appears in the role of
prophet of patriotism and a first
aid to history; for Sennett has
shown up the kaiser in his true
colors. No longer is he the DOGGY"
man running amuck among the
nations this huge bluff, whose evil
and whose friends, together with
the might Of a deluded, maddened
people. enabled the pigmy to cam
outage himself successfully in the
habiliaments of Attila, the original
Hun. Mr.. Hohenzollern. in short,
is "pegged," his number" is reg
istered, his goat" is released to
run around and butt him, and the
author of the six safety first sons
is shown as all cruel despOts are
always found at heart to be-rank,
craven towards.
How this somewhat serious
scheme is developed in an atmos-
phere of burlesque and travesty,
satire and ridiCule, is Mr.. Sennett's
secret. He is the only picture pro-
Queer who could accomplish it,
and that he has done it is asserted
by all who have seen this master
