former home to find so great change in
its atmosphere.
Love Dreams" adapted from comedy
originally called 1.-THE Gilded Cage" by
Anna Nichols, was offered by Oliver Mo
rosco. Mr.. Morosco, it may likewise be
recorded, has written the lyrics for the
new Offering and Werner Jannsen has
contributed the music. It is not a must
cal comedy, Mr. Morosco preferring the
description OF musical play Some
where between the opening and closing
there Is a Plot, but it is of less interest
than the contribution of the cast, select
ed to give honor to the slogan "a typical
Morosco cast" There are Tom Powers,
Vera Michelena, Orrin Johnson, Harry
Morton, Maude Eburne, Marie Carroll
and score Of others, surely enough to
give full value for the new scale Of prices
adopted here. 1t is highly amusing, the
songs are tuneful and the dancing clever
Altogether is is a play with music that
should appeal and probably will appeal
very strongly to those who like this sort
and Broadway has a lot Of them.
Ambush" by Arthur Rio Imam, was
the first production of the season for the
noted Theatre Guild. Engaging cast
in which are Frank Reicher, Florence Ed
ridge, John Craig, Catherine Pro ctor and
Jane Wheatley, with others, it achieved
a greater artistic than substantiil sue
cess. 1t is a stern and uncompromising
study Of circumstances-a story of ideals
attacked from without and eventually
abondened when the press Of events be-
comes too great. Specifically, it tells the
tale of a middle-aged and middle-class
clerk who fights desperately against the
onrushing tide Of a scheming daughter
and a conniving wife, and who finds him
self forced to give up the struggle in the
end. 1t is but fair to say that though
the play is unpleasant and gloomy, 1t win
make a strong appeal to that fast grow
ing group of playgoes who seek acting
of a high class and a production of good
taste. It is less appealing than the
average Theatre Guild production, but
the skilful casting and direction atones
for much Of its unpleasantness.
Arnold Daily has established himself
as a manager and actor In repertory
theater, opening with an unsavory mess
called 1.-THE Children's Tragedy" which
Is so depressing, unhealthy and alto
gethers unworthy OF serious production
that not even 1.-THE Van DYKE" which
follows and in which he acts himself, can
remove the unfavorable and depressing
impression Mr. DAILY has burst into
print On frequent occasions with the dec
iaration of his artistic principles. but this
is the first chance TO execute them. Exc
cute is the word, they should be If the
present is the realization.

expert, who has been studying the In
dustry.
California is the greatest hop-pro-
ducing State Of the Union In point Of
tonnage and the greatest in the world IN
average harvest per acre and modern
methods of culture" said Horst.
I'm the harvesting Of hops California
has made the greatest advance in that 10
has developed the p-picking machine,
which is now used on many Of the large
hop ranches not only In California but
IN other parts of the world.
When hops are picked the vines are
cut from the trellis and hauled in wagons
to the hop-picking machines, where thsy
are fed into machines at the rate Of
about 1900 vines per ten-hour day,
which means the picking Of about $1,000
pounds Of undried hops per day. The
labor saving by the machine figures
roughly about 10 per cent Of what would
be required to do the work less success
fully by hand
+tAfter the hops are picked they ara
laid on the kiln floors or drying floors,
where they are kept from twelve u
twenty -four hours for drying. They ara
then moved into cooling houses, where
they are kept for one or two weeks tina
and put into bales weighing 200 pounds
each. For export business these bates
are very frequently recompressed into
bales Of one-haR to one-thtrd their or.
iginal size. This recompressing not only
better preserves the hops. but also e.
fects very substantial saving In freight
rates.
Regarding the rank among the fesx
States which grow hops on a connee-
cial basis, California Is first, Oregon Sec
cond, Washington third and New York
fourth.
THE average production per acre In
hop growing is oficiaU. reported ss
follows: England, 800 pounds; Germany.
500 pounds; United States, sS5 pounds
California, 1,J00 pounds,
The counties which Lead in CALIFORNIA;
hop production are Sacramento, Sonoua,
Mendocino, YOlo, Tehama, Yuba and
Placer, in the north central part Of the
State.

ENGLISH DRAMA IS
OF THE BETTER STUFF.
"a Bill of Divorcement," an English
drama by Clemence Dane Is now, and has
long been, London success. Charlie
Dillingham; brought it to this country
with a number of English actors, and
last week it was presented by him with
unusual success. 1t is q play which Is
more suited to England than the United
States, but il is withal a powerful drama
and skilfully acted by Allan Pollock,
Janet Beecher, Ada King, Katherine Cor
nell, Charles Waldron, Lillian Brennard,
Arnold Lucy and John Ashley. "a Bill OF
Enforcement" has to consider the British
laws of of divorce. You are asked to
assume that a recommendation Of the
commission on divorce has become a law
and that wife whose husband has been
pronounced incurably insane is by that
fact entitled to her freedom. These con-
ditions are the basis of the play. Then
the problem is clearly and simply stated.
A war marriage of a girl OF II and q
young soldier has been followed by the
wounding of the young husband. He is
declared incurably insane. Years have
passed. The wife has obtained a divorce.

TARKINGTON'S
WREN is SEEN
ON BROADWAY
New Gotham Offerings Are Of
the Better Class-Hines
Gives Opinions.
BY DIXIE HINES.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22-The local
theatrical atmosphere is becoming
clarified, and the plays we are asked
to pass upon are becoming more
worthy Of serious attention. Last
week the English "a Bill of Divorce
ment" was brought oyer, and it
proved to be a drama of unusual
strength but of doubtful American ap-
probation. Ambush" at the The
alter Guild, was a gloomy but tensely
acted drama, and 1.-THE Wren" with
little Helen Hayes, light comedy
without body, but interesting for the
time. Love Dreams" by Oliver
Morosco, is mixture of comedy and
music, and down in Greenwich Vii
lage they continue to do strange
things.
It is Arnold DAILY this time who begins
q season Of repertoire" with two plays,
a sanguinary adolescent drama called
1.-THE Children's Tragedy" and his own
light 1.-THE Van Dyke" For the latter
many thanks, but we could dispense with
the former. From out-Of-town We hear
of Mae Marsh and her stellar debut as a
dramatic actress in Brittle" by Rob-
ert Dempster, which was visited by a
large delegation Of Broadway critics and
passed upon with favor, and later the
American premiere Of ''The Title" with
Lumsden Hare, which proved to be a de-
lightful British satire on the institution
Of "Honors." Both of these are due to
come in very soon. THE Wandering
Jew is the latest Belasco production
which opened this week out of town,
and so did Chickens" and Good Morn
ing, Dearie." The close association of
these two titles was entirely uninten-
tisnal and in no sense suggestive.

province. 1.-THE Wren" is little "Seeby"

TAX APPRAISERS HAVE
BEGUN ANNUAL LABORS
Realty Board Urges Owners
to File Proof of Values.

The Real Estate Board OF New York
has notified its members that the an
uual inspection of property by the tax
appraisers is now going on and that
owners should lose no time In submitting
evidence as to the value of their hold
ings. In elaboration of the board s
warning 20 the owners that action Is
imperative, the following statement has
been issued:
I'm 1902 the city administration. fac
ing a tremendous increase In the budget,
adopted the policy of assessing i'm
proved real estate on the basis Of an
alleged cost of reproduction regardless
of whether the individual property so
appraised had increased in value or not.
As a result many properties under long
lease at pre-war rents were raised from
10 per cent. to so per cent. in value, al
though as n matter OF fact they should
have been decreased in value approxi-
mately per cent. to allow for deprecia-
ton and obsolescence. Vacant land,
then. as now. in many locations. prac-
tically unsalable, was raised 100 per
cent. In value.
Although rents have increased on an
average throughout the city 3s per cent.
Il Is a matter of common knowledge that
values have remained almost station
ary. Since October 1, 1920, tho cost of
reproduction has decreased at least 40
per cent, and II In not at all impossible
for reproduction costs TO be very nearly
pre-war levels by the time the assess
ment rolls for 1929 are finally approved
In view OF these facts, the necessity for
giving early attention to the valuations
for 1921 Is obvious"

metropolitan newspapers should be
barred and locked forever against any

finlsy coincidence that inspired the
writing OF this. the first dramatic crfti-

merely TO correct loose and inaccurate
statement regarding the size Of The
Bronx. uttered by Gunboat Williams In
the second act OF THE Champion" )"
which Sam Harris is producing at the
Longacre Theatre.
1t IS natural OF course that a pugillst

Enthusiastically and having seen It him
self some three or four times decided
inscrutably that every real estate edi-
tor and assistant real estate editor In
town ought to see Il with him.
Mr.. Days party began with a gas

southwest corner OF Sixth avenue and
Fifty-ffth street The guests fingered
aboard ship over their coffee and cigars
while their host discussed conditions In
the auction market and then slid grace
fully into discussion OF the champion
without go much as shifting his verbal
gears. Mr.. Day told how the hero Of
the play. william Burroughs. left his
ultra conserva tive home in England and
Journeyed to San Francisco. where there
IL strong real estate boom In progress
at this very moment. IL Is at this very
point In the play that the authors ig-
nored splendid opportunity for drama
tic effect by their failure TO call atten-
tion to the disparity between land values
In San Francisco when Burroughs ar
rived there and the prices prevailing to-
day. However Burroughs visited the
San Francisco Y. NJ C. A.. structure
erected by Trowel and Tripe who have
had more 70 do with the upbuilding of
San Francisco than any other firm. IL
was at the Y. M. G. A. that Burroughs
proved that he was Of the timber from
which lightweight champions are made,
and the next thing you know he bobbed

Jams. His reappearance spread gloom
among the other male members Of his
family who were Just then trying TO
break their way into a clique composed
Of the most powerful OF England's titled
realty owners.
From this point on Mr.. Day decided
that his guests could follow the thread
OF the play themselves, so tho entire party
made its way over to the Lonzacre
