Might As Well Prepare for
Lot of Fly, Farmers Told

Specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture stationed in
the middle West have determined that.
IN spite of the severe winter, at least
three-fourths of the Hessian flies in
the "flax-seed" stage overwintered sue
cessfully. Experiments have shown.
also, that Hessian fly eggs exposed all
night to a temperature of 8 degrees
above zero will hatch perfectly healthy
maggots.
The indications are, therefore, that
the Hessian fly infestation this year
in Indiana and Wayne county will be
very severe. A severe infestation was
indicated last fall, the only hope OF
alienation being that the numbers
might be greatly reduced during the
winter. This did not occur. Nothing
can be done now toward protecting
the present crop from damage, but in
formation recently gathered by the en-
tomologists will emphasize the neces-
sity for TIE practice of control
measures this fall when planting is
being done for next years crop.
Control consists in late sowing, rota'
ton of crops, blowing under of stubble
destruction Of volunteer wheat, thor
ough preparation of the soil, the use OF
fertilizer and selection and proper
sowing of the best seed.

such an all-star cast been gathered
and never before TO bring to lie the
novel of a famous author In choos-
ing the cast more than 200 players
we're interviewed. Among the princi-
rails are such famed personages as E..
X. Lincoln, w. Lawson Butt, Edward
Coxen, Walter Long. William Balm
bridge, Frank tanning, Eileen Percy,
Margery Wilson, Arthur Morrison,
Russell Simpson and Laura Winston.
E. X. Lincoln has been a reader
fan of Zane Grey for years, and al
though the star and the author had
never met, Mr.. Grey so greatly ad-
mired Mr.. Lincoln's work that he
wanted him for Dick Gale" w. Law
son Butt, the famous English actor,
was chosen by Mr.. Grey nearly year
ago to create the role of the Yaqui.
For the part of the dashing border
captain, George Thorne, Edward Cox
en- was chosen as ideal and to the man
who has won fame by such virile roles
as he played in Carmen of the Klon-
dixie" the part of Capt. Thorne opened
wonderful new opportunities. The ex-
tremely important heavy" Rojas, the
bandit chief, is taken by the worst
hated man in pictures" Walter Long,
whose work as Gus" in Griffith s
Birth of a Nation" will be recalled
everywhere.
The women's roles are in the hands
of beautiful. golden-haired Eileen
Percy and the dark and willowy Mar
gerry Wilson, players notable for some
remarkable screen achievements.
MURRETTE
Constance Talmadge in her latest
production from the pen Of John EN-
erson and Anita Loos, will be seen for
the first time locally when THE Love
Expert" is thrown on the screen of
the Murrette Theater, Sunday, Mon
day and Tuesday.
AS the central thought for this pic
ture, the clever authors have provided
the theme that whereas this is an
age of specialization, what would be
more natural for young romantic
girl to try to become expert at love.
Thus we find Constance .Talmadge
in the role of Babs, boarding school
girl whose school days end before the
senior year thanks to her delinQuen
cies in the elementary courses and her
mania for self-instruction in the sci.
ence of the heart.
Emerson and Loos have given the
screen many bright pictures but THE
Love Expert" is declared to have eX-
celled all previous efforts.

The Paris underworld in all its 70
mantle glamour and sordidness lives
before the audiences eyes in
"L'Apache," the new Thomas H. Ince
picture starring Dorothy Dalton, which
was produced for Paramount-Artcraft
release and will be shown at the Wash
ington theatre for three days begin
ming Sunday next. Miss Dalton is seen
in a dual role. AS an Apache dancing
girl, she performs at the command of
her ruthless criminal husband, and
finally fees from his cruelty and finds
refuge in the bohemian quarter. BY a
freak of fortune she encounters her
double. rich American girl who has
fallen under the power of a profiigate
millionaire. This part also is played
by Miss Dalton and gives her an op-
nortunity to wear some exquisite
gowns. After many thrilling adven-
lures and a startling climax, the drama
is worked out to a happy ending.
Robert Elliot, Macy Harlan, Austin
Weber, and Louis barclay are includ-
ed in the supporting cast of 'L'Apache'
which was directed by Joseph De-
