BILLIE RHODES PICTURE
WRITTEN BY AUTHOR OF
YOUR FLAG AND MY FLAG

Miss Billie Rhodes. who is starred in
the Affiliated production, THE Cir
of My Dreams" finds herself more
satisfactorily placed in this clever
story of love In the hills than in any
previous role.
The story was written by Wilbur
Nesb.t, author of more heart-to- heart
stuff in the American newspapers and
magazines than any poet or prose
writer OF his time, whose your Flag
and My Flag" is a classic of wartime
verse.
Cast as "The Weed" a beautiful lit
tie mountain girl, innocent of con-
ventions and contemptuous Of ''the
rags Of civilization" Miss Rhodes Is
afforded the opportunity to display
her really amazing versatility. and
the characterization is one that is
certain to add vastly to her we'll
earned fame.
THE Girl of Ny Dreams is a love
story, of course, but it is love story
that has a good hearty laugh in il
here and there. or pretty Billy would
have to get some fun out of life even
x she were dying of love. The beauty
)f this stor.r is that 1t is natural and
lot fearful.

CHARLES RAY HAS
UNUSUAL ROLE IN
1.-THE SHE,ISIEE~S SON

Charles Ray gives an astonishingly
clever characterization in his new
Paramount picture THE Sheriff's
Son when he portrays a young man
who has inherited a great fear from
his mother. and has to fight hard to
get the better of his weakness. When
the story opens. the boys father is
badly hurt in fight with cattle
thieves in New Mexico. The boy is
yet unborn. but the mother. who sees
her husband attacked. receives a
severe shock and later the lad is born
with her fear in him.
His father is slain by rustlers and
he is sent east TO be educated. When
he is grown to manhood he comes
west to rescue the cattleman who sent
him east. This man has been taken
prisoner by the gang of cattle rustlers
who were enemies of the boys father.
Then begins the great struggle. All
the boys inherited fear prompts him
TO turn back. But he takes a firm
grip on himself, pulls himself together
md enters the domain of the cattle |
hieves. He learns where his bene- !
actor is hidden and he meets the |

as a hay crop.
 "Late planted corn makes good feed. Put in 90-day corn on good land any time during the first half of July. If the season is favorable this early maturing crop will make full growth and frequently will mature. When early matured or just before frost, whether it has reached the stage or not, cut close to the ground and shock in such a way that the leaves and stalks will become well dried without moulding. The larger the shock that can be made without the inside becoming mouldy the better as the leaves keep their green color best when not exposed to the sun.
 When the foddrer becomes dry store it under a roof Mules and horses will do just as we'll on it as when fed timothy or prairie hay, and it is much cheaper. Cattle like this fodder from late planted corn It is good plan for plantations where a large number of mules are kept to shelve and bale this fodder from late planted corn as soon as it becomes thoroughly dry. Stack the bales under shelter in such a way that the air has a good circu- lation around them. Where thus baled fodder is kept so that it will not become mouldy. Mules may be fed all they will eat of it during the hard work of preparing the land and cultivating the crop.
 It will not pay to plant corn late on this land. There is considerable corn planted on rich, low ground that has had to be abandoned on account of grass. Such land is especially adapted to planting early in July to 90-day corn. Throw the land up in shallow ridges, plant in the furrows coverin gthe seed at least three inches deep. At each cultivation throw a little dirt to the corn. When the corn is laid by the land should be level.

Financial Situation

I'm view of our financial situation,
cur purchases are being cut down to
the absolute minimum possible under
the circumstances, yet in spite of all
our care and economy, 1t is a fact
that since the armistice has been
signed, we have been taking from this
country an average of 100000 to 3O0.-
600 tons of all kinds of goods per
month which represent very large
values. To eounterbaIance these pur-
chases' we want to sell you more
French products; most of them are
different to yours and are not in COM
petition with your own products.
"The more united commercially two
nations are the firmer the basis of
their personal relations is-we must
therefore develop our economic rela-
lions so as to see in the fields of
trade the same brotherhood between
our two countries as the one which
has just achieved victory on the fields
of battle.

says: When it is remembered that
German devastation continued for
two years and nine months after the
above report was written, the world
may imagine what France legitimate
ly has to say on her side of the peace
conference
Considering Frances enormous
losses in killed and permanently dis
abled soldiers, not to mention the
atrocious crimes which were commit
Ted upon her women, children and
Old men and the ravages to which a
large part of her territory was sub
jected, and all this through a war
which was forced upon her. it would
seem that all her demands and argu-
ments are eminently entitled to an
equitable appreciation by the other al
lied powers which have all been
greatly benefited by her sacrifices.
Il will not dwell further on the
dark picture of destruction; it ls too
sad; | merely mention these few
things to show you what a cross
France has to bear. She bears It well
and smiling; but she counts for as
sistance on the traditional friendship
CT this great nation, which has not
suffered so severely, and which has
all its wealth of resources intact.
Some people will tell you that, after
all, the Germans are going to pay us
huge indemnities, and in that case we
shall not need SO much help. This Is
an error, for we must not forget that
1t will be months before they can be-
gin to pay, and IL they ever do pay US
In full, such payments will be spread
over many years. and will only filter
over to us very slowly In order to
get to work, we shall have to find
money at once, right now, to buy raw
materials, machinery. and the thou

Germans have destroyed and robbed
us of, and of which we stand in in
