Now Is the Time to Prepare.

Some time ago mentioned through
the Banner something about gathering
clover seed. They are much finer than
usual and easy to gather. Next week
win be the best time for gathering these
seed, because as soon as the clover dies
the weeds begin to grow and. Of course,
that makes 1t difficult to gather.
There are four kinds that we can
gather white, sweet, bur and black
medic.
This Is also an excellent time to pre-
pare for the fair. 1t is Your fair as
much as mine, so help me select small
grain and the different kinds OF hay.
Now is the time to begin, If we expect
Bossier to win. Yours truly,
f. s. Burr,
Farm Demonstration Agent.

REST MAYO PICTURE

There are two important roqui'
stiles for success as an actor per
sonallty and histrlonic ability, Some
directors say that for the screen the
former essential Is the most import
ant. while on the stage II is the
latter that counts the most. The
history OF the screen actually reveals
number OF stars who have met
with a great measure OF success who
possessed but one of these qualities
10 any considerable degree. A closer
investigation. however, discloses the
fact that these stars rose meteori-
cally, blazed for a while ON the hori-
zon OF the silent drama, and as
swiftly disappeared from view.
The permanent successes OF the
screen have been scored by actors
who possessed both personality and
the ability 10 act, and foremost
among these stars Is Frank Mayo
who has appeared for the past three
years IN Universal films. His latest
production, THE Blazing Trail Is
probably the best story In which he
has appeared in many months d.
rected by Robert Thornhy, It is said
to be a dramatic masterpiece. Local
theatregoers will have an opportun-
ity TO Judge Of It's merits at the
Majestic theatre on Tuesday July

WASHINGTON, oct. 15-The House
has recorded its opposition to any
Increase in its membership, recom-

vote of 146 to 142 the siegel bill

The vote was taken on a motion

Previous to recommitting the bill,
the House rejected 140 to 146 an
amendment by Representative Bar

thorize reapportionment without any

And oh the willing glance,

FEWER In JUNK

Among the many business enter
prises that appear to have felt the

Is the junk trade, judging by the
decrease in license applications for
the business.
According to Homer c. Simmons,
clerk Of City Council, while fifty IL
censes were issued for this business
last year only half the number was
issued this year despite the fact that
the license is only s25 this year in
stead Of $50.

ON uncle sam
Mellon Denies Seeking De-
fciency Appropriation of
$570,0OO,OO0
A YEARS EXPENSE
is PROVIDED FOR

WASHINGTON. oct. 15-Federal
expenditures for the current fiscal
year will be kept within the agreed
limit OF s4.034.O0o. 900, Secretary Mel
Ion declared last night, in a state
ment denying reports that an addi-
tional deficiency appropriation Of
$3.50, 900. 600 would be asked. The
program limiting expenditures to the
above figure. which had the sane
tion of the President and the House
ways and means committee. is be-
ing carried out satisfactorily. accord
ing 10 the statement.
The original program made allow
anco for estimated deficiency appro-
priations which. 1T was realized
would be necessary IN connection
with certain government activities
Mr.. Mellon explained. These in.
cluded particularly the settlements
with the railroads growing out of
federal control and vocational train
ing for the former service man. but
Mr.. Mellon added that his informa-
ton indicated the revenue require
ments of the government still would
be amply provided in the s4,034.000,- -
600.
Congress has been advised the
secretary said, that It could proceed
with the framing OF revenue laws
on that basis and there now appear
ed no reason to alter the plan. The
tax program. therefore, was not af-
fected, he added.
Some deficiency appropriations
will be submitted during the cur
rent fiscal year. according TO the
secretary, who reiterated that they
had been taken into consideration
already in the estimating Of actual
expenditures Mr.. Mellon said also
that so far as treasury official could
now forsee. financial plans for the
coming year would stand unchanged.
Modification OF the administra-
tion's foreign loan funding bill. so
as to place the funding operations
under the jurisdiction OF a special
commission, was agreed to by Sec
retary Mellon today in a letter sent
to the House ways and means COM
mittee. with the approval OF Presi-
dent Harding.
The revised measure as suggested
In the secretary's letter would fol-
low in some respects the changes
already contemplated by House
leaders.
Instead OF giving supreme author
ity TO the treasury secretary for re-
funding the loans. the new admin
istration plan would entrust the task
to commission OF fve members
one OF whom would be the secretary.
The other four would be named by
the President with the provision thai
any nominee who Is not cabine
member must be confirmed by th'
Senate.
Il Is understood that administra
ton leaders contemplate the inclu
sion OF at least three cabinet Nom
bers in the proposed commission
and 1t is possible that the entir
membership may be chosen from tn
Presidents official family Beside
the secretary OF the treasury, It i
believed that the secretary OF stat'
and the secretary OF commerce ma,
have membership.
