GUY BATES POST AT JEFFERSON 3 DAYS,
 OPENING TOMORROW
Eminent Actor Here in ''The Masquerader' Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
 day, With Matinee

Guy Bates Post. who comes to the Jeff
 ferson tomorrow for three-day engage-
 ment, is an actor of ths first rate, known
 as we'll in New York City as in Birming-
 ham, and as well in Seattle as Boston.
 That's reputation worth having in the
 theatre, and players who have it may
 count themselves established. They go
 lost sight of those who confine them- selves to a single public The player who will not travel may have a noisy career
 but it will be brief. It is impossible to stay in one town and become repre- sentative player. On the other hand. kindly observe the experience of Guy Bates Post, it is possible for a repre- sentative American player to stay in any good town with suitable play for about as long as he desires. Mir, Post is now in his third year in 'The Masquerader. and yet has only been seen in few of America's large cities. New York con sumed an entire season. Boston four months, Chicago six months, Philadelphia five months, Australia four months, and only Sidney and Melbourne were visited. Had it not been for previous contracts he would have remained 2 solid year ln that smallest of all continents. His Chi cago engagement was also cut short be- cause of previous contracts. and com- menting on his six months stay in Chi cago that citys most discriminating critic, Mir. O. l.. Hall, said
 Post is one of the very few players who remain long in one play and yet find 1t easy to command general interest III the major cities. His wonderful acting has caught and held the interest here un- til the attendance has reached and passed every promise and expectation. It has been long since he has had forced vaca- tion, and all plays have worn well vita him in them. The Virginian.' Tho Heir 10 the Hoorall Paid in Full. The Mig ger, The Bird of Paradise in which he gave that never-to-be-forsotten imper- sonation of the beach colabcr, and Omar, the Tentnaker, SO well and vividly re- called, are all within easy memory.

 Those present at the Jefferson theater on Friday and Saturday will be the lucky ones, and there is no doubt but what the theater will be filled to it's utmost capacity, for such is being the case in every city where Business Before Pleas .ure" is pleasing capacity audiences
 Did you ever feel as though you woudl like to have heartily laugh? Did you ever have a quarrel with the better half and want to find something to take the dull care away? Did you ever go home from your business with lot of worry on your mind, when you would have given anything for something to cheer you up? Did you ever crave entertain ment when there was no one to give 1t to you?
 If you are suffering from either of the above and need real hearty laugh, you can get it when Abe and Mawruss, the two boys who have retired from the cloak and suit trade to go into the film busi- ness, begin to hire vamps for their reproduction. "The Guilty Dollar.

POST DEATH SCENE
 CALLED IMMORTAL

If Guy Bates Post has done nothing else and. needless to say he has done countless things for the uplft of the dramatic arts. he has perfected the art of dying to such degree that when The Masquerader is forgotten. the name of Post will be immortalized for his pow erful death scene in the play
 So wrote a celebrated New York critic of the great artists superb passing out in ..The Masquerader." which is to be presented at the Jefferson theatre Mon day. Tuesday and Wednesday, and Wednesday matinee. When John Chil- cote one of the two parts portrayed by Post in the drama. dies from an over dose of morphia, Post is seen at his best, and has reached the ac;oe of his art.
 This, however Is onl: enc of numer- ous compelling dramatic scenes in 'The Masquerader." in which Post gives one of the most finely drawn characteriza- tions ever seen on the American stage. He is supported by splendid company of artists.

Mistaken identity has been given a few
 new twists by Walter Fishter & Co. in
 ''Go Into the Kitchen the headline at traction for the first part of the week at
 the Lyric theatre. This skit has enough plot for three-act play, and its un- raveifng requires even tic assemblance of classic dancing, but Mir. Fishter, in stead of unraveling ths plot, seems 10 tangle it up so until tEe very finish of the sketch nobody has been properly idenfi- fled MT. Fishter is supported by an ex- cellent company, and the four farceurs with him get every laugh, chuckle or smile out of ''Go Into the Kitchen"
 Belle Montrose, in Her Only Chance" comedy skit, fits in just fine, for she is comedienne, and the two combined form an ultra-comical vehicle which will carry you along at a rapid clip. Being q melange of comedy, singing. talking and dancing, with surprise at the end, this number is declared by critics to, be one of the real tip-toppers

 AND HAZELEI

Mcbride of Juneau for national com- mltteeman, and George c. Hazelet of Cordova for delegate to the nation N Gonvention at Chicago. There was no opposition to the action, all of the members present giving their SUD- port to the motions of endorsement
 The meeting was we'll attended and a number of new names added to the membership roll. Attorney Cecil H. Cegg, prominent in Fairbanks Repub- lican circles, was present and gave the members an interesting talk on the political situation, assuring them of the desire of Fairbanks to co-op- perate with the local organization He spoke favorable of the candidacy Of George s. Smith and said that both Nenana and Brooks could count on the support of Fairbanks in the forthcoming primaries, it being the desire of the Republicans of the up- per town to distribute the represen- tation over the division rather than f2 attempt to confine it to Fairbanks

 INVITATION AND PULLS
 STUNT NOT ON PRFCRAM

BRAZIL, Ind, March 16 (by Asso- ciated Press) The town wag mailed an invitation to the Rev. Ed. ward Roster to attend "select dance" at Clay City recently. The minister caused a sensation by ac- cepting and including in the program much more than was expected.
 Accompanied by his wife, the Rev. Mr. Roster paid his dollar entrance fee and passed into the dance hall. He then attacked dancing and after his address said he would offer prayer for the 'sinners" if they would kneel. Several did kneel and the minister prayed.
 Following the prayer the Rev MT. Roster gave the dancers another short sermon and declared it an insult to send a minister an invitation to a dance. After the service the dance went on, but it was admitted not with the customary merriment.

ROTATION INCREASES YIELD
Among Many other Reasons II Dis
tributes Risk Of Crop Failure
and Helps Fertility.

There are many reasons for rotat.
ing crops. Some are more important
in one section, SOME in another. Among
them may be mentioned the follow
ing:
(1) Rotation increases the total crop
yield.
t2) 1t distributes the risk Of crop
failure, since conditions injurious TO
one crop frequently do not affect other
crops.
(S) 1t gives a better distribution OF
farm labor throughout the year.
(4) II allows the keeping OF more
live stock, which favors a better use
Of farm crops and furnishes farm ma.
nure.
(5) II allows the use Of green-ma-
nure crops and the satisfactory ap-
plication of farm manures, thus main.
taining the fertility Of the soil.
(6) II insures better control Of
weeds. injurious insects, and fungous
diseases Of crops.
ca II uses coll moisture more COM
pletely. as different crops use water
differently. - Farmers Bulletin 676

Progress In the average quality Of
horses produced in the United States
has not kept pace with the progress
made In many agricultural lines, say
animal husbandry specialists, for the
reason that the farmer, in too many
instances, has not given the careful
thought to this subject that he has to
his other problems. This is true,
moreover, In spite of the fact that eff
cient horse power is one Of the most
important factors in the economical
production of agricultural products.
The average prices of horses during
the war remained practically at a
standstill, even decreasing slightly,
while the prices of meat animals in
creased tremendously, even more than
doubling In some cases. This had a
discouraging effect on horse breeding,
which resulted In a decrease in the
number of mares bred in 1918 and
1919.
Demand Depends Largely on Quality.
There is today, however, a great
scarcity Of high-class, efficient horses
and mules and a strong demand and
good prices for that class. The de-

mand and the price for the mediocre
work animal, on the other hand, Is
low. This should emphasize the ne
cessity for the greatest endeavor to
reduce the number of inferior horses
produced. If the right kind Of horses
and mules, the kind for which there
is always market, are to be pro-
duced the same care must be given to
their production as Is given by the
breeders of cattle. sheep, and swine.
What Is needed more than anything
else in the production Of our work
stock is greater care In the selection
of both the stallion and the brood
mare. The poor producing brood mare
should not be bred. II is a losing
proposition to breed a poor producing
brood mare, even to the best stallion,
or to breed the good producing brood
mare to an inferior stallion, with the
hope that a good foal may be pro-
duced. While occasionally q good one
will be produced in this way, the re-
suits In most cases win be disappoint-

Analysis Of Reports Indicate De-

Post Mortem Results at Federally In

ures to Authorities.

Analysis of the reports regarding
tuberculosis in cattle and swine, issued
during the last three years by the
United States department of agricul-
ture, indicates decrease in the per-
centage Of animals found TO be infect
ed with this disease. The figures
based on post-mortem results at fed
orally inspected meat packing estab-
lishments are encouraging to state and
federal authorities and others engaged
In the eradication Of tuberculosis.
A summary of the federally inspect
ed slaughter of cattle at eight impor-
tant market centers-Chicago, Kansas

of animals condemned for tuberculosis
for the year ended June 80, 1917, was
0.51 per cent (51 hundredths of / per
cent? Of the whole number slaugh-
tered. For 1913 condemnatiohs for the
same cause had decreased to OBS per
cent; and in 1919 they had dropped
to 0.S2 per cent. The total number of
cattle slaughtered In 1917 at the eight
points mentioned was 5,966S24, and
in 1919 this had increased to 6995, 1856.
The reports regarding swine at the
same eight markets show that the per-
centage condemned for tuberculosis In
1917 was 0.244 per cent; in 1918. 0.199
per cent; and in 1919. OF per cent.
1t is noteworthy, the meat inspection
divisional points out, that the per cent
age of tuberculosis in swine declined
along with the decrease of the same
disease among cattle. The figures
support the belief that swine are in

pally from cattle. infection being

partment of agriculture declares, can
hasten the stamping out Of tubeculo-

by having their herds tested with tu-

and thereafter requiring all cattle In
