Why Change Your WHe?"
The Cast

"A woman who marries the second time doesn't deserve to have lost her first husband"
 l don't know why this little bit of philosophy of my ole mammy's' kept running through my brain yesterday when l was enjoying the thoroughly interesting and fascinating picture, Why Change Your Wife@' which is playing at the Strand, because the pretty wife in the case didn't marry again and she didn't lose her husband just misplaced him-and it was Friend Husband" himself who got fed up," as it were, on matrimony asking the question which gives the photopiay it's catchy title.

 Any way, when matrmony, divorce, affinities and the eternal triangular situation form the basis of picture like this wonderful production of MT. Cecil DeMille's. brain, somehow yon can't help ing-thinking-spec ulatlng- something, and so 1 just spec ulated my little old bit of philosophy.
 Married life with it's problems, it's angles, it's possibilities, it's probabili- ties, gives food for much thought, and somehow after seeing Why Change Your Wife?" you sort of feel like go- ing home and holding close and tight to what belongs to you by rights. 5 and you vow you'll try to be .more companionable and more attractive and

 Over 1.235.000 aliens were seekers after American citizenship during the past year. During the last five years more sought American citizenship than during the eight years smmedi- ately preceding that time. During the last two years 973,036 and 1,236,116. respectively. sought American citizen ship. At no time has there been a total net immigration in any year equal to the totals of naturalization during the la t two years.
 In launching upon this undertaking for the benefit of the foreign born there has been unconsciously created a national educational organization with which the illiterate native born American is identifying himself and from which he is in rapidly increasing numbers taking to himself the capac- ity to read and write in the tongue of his native land. The nationals of Italy. Poland and Portugal alone are in greater attendance upon many of these classes than Americans. Save these three nationalities. the illiterate Americans of adult age show far larger attendance than the Hunga rians, Lithuanians Scandinavians Serbians, Swedes, Norwegians, Greeks Germans, Films or any of the 73 other municipalities and tet gues whose repre- sentati/es are coming to these founts Of learning whose doors are thrown open without cost to them.

VALUABLE HINTS ON COTTON GROWING
 ARE GIVEN FARMERS

FLORENCE. Jan. 20.-Those of our farmers who failed to take advantage of the first number. of the series of Saturday night missed a very interest ing and instructive meeting. The sub ject was Cotton Growing" in this valley and very valuable informa tion to the cotton grower was brought out in the discussion following the presen- tation of the subject by County Farm Agent c. K. Wiledrmuth of Casa Grande. The manner of preparing the soil for the seed bed came in for a great deal of discussion, but the con- census of opinion advanced by those who have had several years experience in cotton growing, and by the county farm agent. was that the land should he thoroughly irrigated before planting The subject of proper irriga ton was also discussed quite fully. County Farm Agent Wildermuth declared that irri- gation as practiced in this valley was extremely faulty and wasteful. He stated that the land should not have more than iwo-thirds of an inch fall to 100 feet. With a greater fall the water passes over the land too rapidly and the higher spots are inadequateIy irrigated. while the lower places will
  he a spotted field with unsatisfactory yield.
 The relative value of product yield from virgin soil is compared witt. soil having had one or two years alfalfa growth. and fertilized land. was dis cussed. statistics from the Saca ton ex- perimental station showing gin soil which has been seeded to alfalfa for one year: and still better results are obtained from lands having grown al- falfa for two years. It is also shown that desert lands fertilized with 15 tons of manure to the acre has the same productive value as lands having grown alfalfa for two years. The rela- tive value of Pima cotton as compared with Durango came in for some dis cussion. and Mir. Wildermuth declared that Pima cotton was the more profit able crop. The best time to plant cotton in this valley was stated to be form the 18th of March to the 18th of April. although good results have been obtained from later planting. Cotton will not stand frost in any degree and planting must be delayed until all possibility of late spring frosts are certain.
 Next Saturday night there will be another meeting of the farmers. When the subject of cotton growing will be discussed further. After that ar rangements will be made for the dis cussion of other farm crops. At the conclusion of the discussion last Sat urdav night an excellent luncheon was served by the class fin domestic science of the high school under the direction of Miss Tillery which came in for a fine appreciation by the farmers pres ent This is a promised feature of the succeeding meetings, and should prove an added incentive for the farmer to leave his cozy fireside. for once you partalSe of the hospitality Of the domestic science department you arc certain to come again.
