'VODEvIL' CONDITIONS BETTER
Novelty to Give Benefit Matinee for
Actors-Nation- Wide Move.


Since the death of the old White
Rat Actors union several years ago
and the organization of the National
Vaudeville Artists, vaudeville has had
a complete overhauling as far as
cleaning up bad conditions are con-
cerned. When the White Rats passed
away the Vaudeville Managers Pro-
tective association fostered the Ma
tional Vaudeville Artists as a safe and
sane association and the two have
been working hand in hand ever since.
Many conditions that vaudeville ar
lists were trying TO better were taken
up and settled to- the mutual satisfac-
ton of both sides. The old White Rat
club house on Forty-seventh street in
New York was purchased and one of
the finest club houses in New York
is now ready for the members of the
y. v A. a protective material de-
partment was put in and any artist
that finds some other artist using his
committee and have it stopped. This
has always been a great source of an
noyance to the vaudeville actor.
Conditions back of the stage have
been cleaned up. Better facilities,
better care of the artist and his per-
sonaI effects and cleaner and more
sanitary conditions back of the stage
have been the outcome of meetings
between the two associations.
Another new policy just put in force
in the east in all Keith houses is the
appointing of a new sort of stage man
ager. This new manager does not
have anything to do with the mechan-
ical end of the stage, but his duties

Based on Pepsir,

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the diges-
tant of albumin. The film is albuminous
matter. The object of Pepsodent is to dis
solve it, then to constantly combat it.
Pepsin long seemed impossible. It must
be activated, and the usual agent is an
acid harmful to the teeth. Dental science
has now discovered harmless activating
method. And now everyone can fight the
film with active pepsin constantly.

That Film on Teeth
Can Now Be Ended in This WAY

You can feel on your teeth Shiny film,
ever-present, ever-forming. That film is the
great tooth wrecker. Dental science now
traces nearly all tooth troubles to it.
The film clings to the teeth, gets between
the teeth, enters crevices and stays. The
tooth brush does not end it. The ordinary
dentifrice does not dissolve it. So millions
find that teeth discolor and decay despite
the daily brushing.

Dental science, after years of searching,
has found way to combat film. Many able
authorities have proved its efficiency. For
five years it has been subjected to every sort
of clinical and laboratory test.
Now, for home use, it is embodied in
dentifrice called Pepsodent. Leading den
lists all over America are now urging its

DURING 1917 --latest authentic
IL figures available) motor trucks
hauled 90 tons of freight a mile for
every person in the United States.
Then the country was at war and
the capacity of the railroads was
overtaxed.
It is doubtful if even a small per-
centage of this enormous tonnage
could have been moved except by
motor trucks.
The management of the Standard
Oil Company Qndiana), recognizing
the necessity of furnishing facilities
for supplying gasoline to automo-
biles and trucks as they Travelled
through the country, established
Service Stations at convenient
points throughout the territory
served.
These Service Stations perfected
the system of distribution main
tanned by the Company.
The drivers of this caravan ofmotor
trucks which carried the 6 billion
ton miles of freight in 1917 would
have found their task more difficult
of accomplishment had it not been
for the network of Service Stations
along the way.
While the Standard Oil Company
was supplying a substantial share
of the fuel consumed by these
motor trucks, it also was supplying
it's regular patrons, and meeting
the demands of the United States
Government with great quantities
of gasoline for war purposes.
It's preparedness, and it's ability to
meet an emergency, however I'M
heralded the emergency may be,
serves to emphasize one of the
salient phases of the bigness of the
Standard Oil Company Qndiana).

FARMS
DURING PAST DECADE
Number of Farms In Counties
How They Stand-Something
About Stock, Etc.

There are (27O,o7o farms in the
state of Kentucky in 1920, accord
ing to the Nth census of the I'm
tied States Agricultural Depart
ment, a decided decrease over that
for 1910, showing much property
bought and extension of farming
upon the part of those who had
settled here previous to that time.
According to the manner of COM
pilation, a farm" for census pur-
poses, is all the land which is di-
rectly farmed by one person, eth
er by his own labor or with the
assistance of his household or hir-
ed help. When a land owner has
one or more tenant renters, crop
pers or managers, the land oper-
ated by each is considered farm.
In this section of the state,
there are more farms in Madison
county than another of the adjoin-
ing or nearby counties, there be-
ing 1857, for this county, while
Lincoln is the nearest county with
|2,323. Madison almost trebles
other surrounding counties, as the
following figures will show:
Boyle, 1894; Clark, 1866; Es-
all, 1882; Fayette, 1873; Garrard
1929; Jessamine, 1884, Rockcas-
tie, 2,3O2.
In 1910, Madison county led by
a small margin, and has shown a
steady decrease, indicating pro-
gressiveness in the way ola ex-
tended holdings and adding ten
ants. A steady progress is shown
by the reports of production and
the development of some pro-
ducts has been wonderful.
Reports issued by other bulle-
tins indicate that tobacco has
made the most rapid stride of any
home grown product, while the
cattle and horses have increased
to a remarkable extent.
! Quality in horses raised in Ken
lucky, as we'll as cattle, hogs and
mules, also dogs and chickens.
There was a period for several
years that turkey raising develop
ed to an unusual degree, however,
there is a decline shown later.
