ago his ranch was used as location for
his forthcoming photodrama, Human
Stuff" and for two weeks the entire
Universal Company, numbering some
forty-odd people, camped on the stars
place. Every evening there was a
campfire and the necessary beverage
to start the tongue a'wagging and
reminiscing.
Thus, it came to pass that a few
days ago when the actor sought the
making of a cocktail, he found that
the bottom of the last bottle had been
turned towards the sun. On the fol-
lowing Sunday Mr.. Carey expected o
dozen friends to visit him at the ranch,
and he thought of a plan to break the
sad news to them gently. Borrowing
g sprinkling cart from the village of
Van Mugs not many miles from his
ranch, he decorated it with suitable
inscriptions and met his friends in the
roadway approaching his place.

Another Oasis Has Gone Dry

X 1t was sad day on the Carey
rinch when Harry, its owner who
bosses the $40 acres in San Francis,
quito Canyon when he is not making
pictures at Universal City. made his
usual trip to the well known cellar
and found it in the same condition as
Mother Hubbard's cupboard.
A little less than a year ago it was
stocked with a goodly supply of the
stuff that cheers. Mr.. Carey is. tenn
perate man and he thought he had
sufficient to play good Samaritan to
his friends for a long time to come.
But he underestimated the thirst of
the average individual in these days
of drought.
Every Sunday would find the Harry
Carey ranch alive with visitors from
Los Angeles and other parts of lower
California, and always Harry would
play the perfect host. A few weeks

American Mexican BorderSScene !,
of Turmoil for Many Years

The border between the United
States and Mexico has been for a
long time one Of the most troubled,
romantic and lawless in the western
hemisphere. Not only do the Next
can revolutionists periodically start
something by shooting or raiding
across the line, but this border also
affords one of the finest opportunities
in the world for smuggling. A large
part of the opium which is consumed
by addicts in this country come by
way of the Mexican border, and an
illicit business in arms and ammuni-
ton goes the other way.
In the old days stealing horses in
Mexico, driving them across the river
and selling them in the United States
was a thriving industry and it is
probably still carried on to some ex-
tent. In the old days it was known

Buying a Farm and
Renting Other Land

1t is often possible to purchase a
small area and then increase the size
of the business by renting adjoining
lands. This practice permits the farm
er to operate a good-sized business
with limited capital and at the sane
time gives him greater security than
if he had no property of his own and
rented the entire business.
Such practice is stepping s.onc
which many men use in changing from
the status of the renter to that of the
owner. 1t is practice which can be
followed only in regions where land is
really available for renting and where
grain farming or general farming is
followed. The practice would hardly
be possible in dairying or other live
stock farming, where the production
of roughage and other feeds for the
herd was required. Some years GER
tain lands might not be available for
renting, and this would mean a de-
cided reduction in the herd.
Again, this practice might be fol-
lowed with the idea of eventually
buying adjoining lands. This ques.
ton, therefore, is one which should
IIbe looked into carefully before making
the venture.

1879 Spanish Far
mers Arrive

An influx of Spanish farmer-mechan-
les to the United States says the New
York Times, was pedicted by Francisco
Salinan, of Barcelona, who arrived
here last week on the Montserrat of
the Royal Spanish Mail Line. AS
bearing out his statement, Senior Sa-
Imam was accompanied by 189 of his
countrymen who had left their homes
to seek better opportunities here.
Thousands of farmers in Spain have
quit their farms to share in the high
wages received by mechanics, Senior
Salinan explained, but, unlike Ameri-
can farm help, these men all yearnec
to get back to their original occupa-
ton. Farming in Spain was an oc-
cupation which was followed by fami-
lies from generation to generation, he
said.
For the first time in twenty-eight
years the Reina Maria Cristina ar
rived here yesterday from Spain. On
the occasion of her last visit, the
steamer had on board the aunt Of
King Alphonso XIV and her two sons
who came to the United States to pro.
mote friendly feeling between the two
countries.
During her stay in port. the Reina
Maria Cristina will be inspected by
American marine sanitary officials to
determine whether she can be used
in service between New York and
Madrid. If this can be done. she will
be the forerunner of a feet of passen-
ger boats which will be put into oper-
alton BY the Royal Spanish Mail Line.
In the Intervening years the steamer
has been used in the Spanish-South
American service.
