At Brotman's RiaIto.

Rex Beach. when creating the
part of Norman Dalrymple in his
newest photoplay, TOO aft TO
Fight" showing at Brotman'~
Rialto today, determined to MAKE
him a hero such as he had never
thought of before. The author re-
solved to have his principal char
aeter do and say things not usually
associated with the conventional
hero" 1t was his desire to MAKE
"Dimples," as Dalrymple is called
by his intinates, laughable figure
as well as a pathetic one. And Rex
Beach has succeeded admirably.
The sight of the immensely fat
Dimples trying to be as active and
1.-the as his Simmer brothers, ali
the while eating his heart out pc
cause he cannot get into the army
and in distress because the girl ne
cares for laughs at him-this is the
amusing situation around which
ITO Fat to Fight" is built. The
patriotic note is struck from the
outset and the play carries it Oh
until the climax is reached in d
splendid blare of self-sacrifice. The

1t remained for Rex Beach to in
troduce a new kind of hero to the
screen public and to write some
thing new in the way of stories as
we'll. He has done both in TOO
Fat to Fight" in which Frank
Mcintyre is the featured player.
He has written a patriotic drama
that is really more than this. He
has introduced on the screens of
the world the magnificent work
done by the Y. NJ. c. A.. Y. NJ. H.
A, the Salvation Army, the Knights
of Columbus, and other organiza-
tions which spurred our boys on to
victory. They are not used as d
background merely, but are a vital
part of the story. Their purpose
and ideals. their discipline and
achievements are graphically de-
picted in the photoplay and at>the
same time full advantage is taken

SEARCH FOR LOST
LOOT OF MEXICAN
BANDIT Is FUTILE

Mexico City.-Search for the lost
treasures of the bandit Chavez Gar
cha. who, before his sudden death
from influenza last fall. was said
to have buried large quantities of
loot in the mountains of Michoa-
can. has almost been discontinued,
with the location of the treasure
still a mystery. 1t was reported
that Garcia bur. ed much of his
loot in a labyrinthian cave near
Penjamillo. Michoacan. and the
people of that village for months
nave maintained an enthusiastic
but futile search for it. A similar
search was made in the state OF
Durango, where Tomas Urbina. an
other bandit, was said to have hid
den a large amount of stolen goods

FRUIT KILLED

II is the consensus of opinoin
that all fruit and young plants were
killed by the freeze and comes as a
severe loss to the community.
Opinion is varied as TO whether the
tobacco plants were killed, on ac-
count of being covered, but if not,
they had narrow escape. In COM
menting on the late freeze, Prof
G. ID. Smith, of the State Normal
School in Richmond, said:
with the thermometer register
ing 10 degrees below freezing in
many places it looks very much
like the entire fruit crop has been
killed with the possible exception
of a few places where the trees
were protected by buildings. Some
of the most hardy peach and plum
may pull through, but ii looks like
the grapes, apples, pears and cher
ries are all killed. Even the leaves
of the plum, apple, peach and grapes
are frozen crisp and il we have any
fruit whatever, il will be a streak
of luck in favored localities

WEALTH LIES IN SOIL

Joseph Hirsch, Chairman of the
Agricultural Commission of the
American Bankers Association, re-
Gently said at meeting in Wash
ington, ID. c.:
Americas wealth lies in her soil.
To conserve and further develop
this, our greatest national resource,
to increase the prosperity of the
farmers, who are the nations chief
producers of wealth, and to provide
better educational facilities and
better living conditions for the
farm children-our farmers of the
future-constitute the mission Of
the Agricultural Commission of the
American Bankers Association. To
these ends / invite your hearty CO.
operation, and trust the delibera-
tions of the conference will bear
good fruit"
This attitude on the part of the
leading bankers of America will
remake the profession of farming
in the United States in the very
near future.
AT this meeting a big, broad and
comprehensive Declaration was de-
veloped and adopted by the bankers
present. In referring to club work,
the Declaration says:
This conference bespeaks for the
boys and girls of the open country
the continued and increased in
terest of the banker, as manifested
in numerous club activities in the
past.
Nothing should be left undone
to make the farm profitable and
likable for the generation that is
to occupy it. 1t is suggested that
some of the drift to city can be
averted by a recognition of the farm
boy that involves making him a
partner of his father. The good
Offices of the banker can be factors
in bringing this about"

A TALK WITH A BIRD

Said Mr.. World TO a bird: Bird,
you are a troubled fowl. For the
assistance you render man, eating
worms and insects, acting as scar
venger for the entire world. eating
weed seeds, giving the best OF music
what do you receive in payment?
Why you are killed by idle men.
thrown at by mean boys, and you
die victim TO the suddenly chang
ing weather. Why do you live, bird'
The bird replied with a cheerful
song; Better times are ahead OF
me. The farmer will come TO his
senses soon and will realize what !
am worth 10 him. He will make his
boy throw at tree instead OF me.
When the city people get tired Of
hearing their own music, they will
want TO hear mine. In short, tho
whole world will, in the future,
realize my merits" Then the bird
flew away.-A student.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT

The County Agent has just made
a trip through Rockcastle county,
and reports the following:
Wheat extra good, preparation OF
land for crops fine, above the aver
age, turning of corn land about
finished. Some farmers are planting
corn, Others are cultivating the corn
before planting, which is good
policy, we believe. Tobacco will be
cultivated quite extensively, COM
pared with last year. More grass
seeded this year than in the past
two years. The seeding of sweet
clover is increasing. More than
200 acres has been seeded this
spring.
Old fields are being renovated,
rail fences are being replaced by
wire. Lots of interest is being
shown in live stock, cattle, hogs,
sheep, and poultry. Gardens are
looking well. On the whole Rock
castle county Is moving steaully ON,
and it is only a question of time
until she will be noted for Sweet
Glover, Sheep, and Bees. In fact at
the present time there are things
in demand which ROckcastle county
has been developing for the past
three years-Red Wheat, Red Hogs,
Red Chickens.
There has been more than 1000
Rhode Island eggs sold from Rock
castle county for Matching purposes
this spring. The slogan which was
started two years ago Paint the
County Red" seems to be reaching
the county slowly but surely.

boy or girl to visit Glenna and see
her red chickens.
Frank Johnson, her brother, is
also in the club raising corn and
pigs. His corn acre is now in
Crimson Glover. He will turn il
under about May 10 or IS. He has
put eight wagon loads of manure
on it already. His interest is run
ming high for a big yield.
His pig for last year is now
hog and is the mother of five nice
little Poland China pigs. He is feed
ing corn, shipstuff and tankage,
with a little buttermilk. He has
his record book up TO date.
He is planning on using the pro-
ceeds from the corn and pigs for
school expenses in 1919 and 1920.
Mrs. w. C. Johnson, the mother of
Glenna and Frank, is raising pure
bred Rhode Island Red poultry. She
has flfty-nine hens which have
produced ss6.3i worth of eggs since
January 1, 1919. She has seventys
two chicks and one hundred and

to set more than a hundred eggs

PREPARE FOR BL0AT
Having had many inquiries during
the past week, the County Agent
wishes to give the following
inform ation.

Every season a number of cattle
and dairy cows are killed because
of clover bloat. OF course, when
pastures are snowy with white
clover bloom, the danger is greatest.
This season bids fair to be a white
clover year, so it would be well for
every farmer TO be prepared to
handle a case of bloat quickly and
effectively.
The experts at the Experiment
Station at Lexington, who have
been very successful in curing bloat
in cattle, recommend the following
treatment:
"Drench the animal suffering with
clover bloat with a quart of water
containing one-half an ounce Of
formalin. Follow this with a drench
containing one pound of EPSON
Salts and One-half an ounce ground
ginger.s
