BROWN ROT ATTACKS
THE YOUNG FRUIT

Clemson College, April 4-What
appears to be an epidemic of rot has
caused considerable loss of young
fruit in some of the peach and plum
orchards OF the state during the past
week or ten days, from attacks of the
fungus which causes the fruit to dot
later in the season. The resulting
damage has been SO heavy in some
instances that the entire fruit crop has
been destroyed on some of the trees
examined by the pathologists. The
disease developed and spread rapidly
during the recent warm rainy wealth
er
There is nothing that can be done
now to protect the young fruit from
the present attacks. But the or
chards should be sprayed later of
course with self-boiled lime-sulphur
solution to protect the grown fruit
from brown rot. Directions for the
preparation and application of self
boiled lime-sulphur are given in Ex-
tension Circular r.
These early attacks of brown rot
which are apt to occur every spring
at about this time can best be pre-
vented by the rigid enforcement of
proper sanitary measures, such as the
careful pruning and burning of all
OF the dead and diseased branches, and
the raking up and burning of all of
the rotten fruit of the past season.
This should be done during the wnt-
CT and an application of lime sulphur
solution as recommended for winter
spray should be put on before the
buds begin to swell.

Pacific northwest region is very sdry
at thrashing time, and from then on
until about March gradually absorbs
moisture. Between March and Aug
ust some of this moisture is given off.
The average moisture content of
wheat for the three years during
which studies were made was 81 per
cent in August, 1.3 per cent in March
and 1915 per cent in July. The data
for each separate year and section
show the same relative changes.

of illiteracy in the rural districts

cities. In Alabama l7.s percent of
rural residents were found to be H.
literatc and 10.4 per cent in cities; in
Arkansas 1876 per cent of the rural
population and 6.5 percent of urban,
IN Delaware 6.1 per cent for rural
district and 81 per cent for urban.
In both Southern states a higher
percentage of illiterates was found in
the negro population than in the
white, although the proportion of il
literates likewise declined among the
negroes between 1910 and 1920. In
Alabama 31.3 per cent of negroes
were found illiterates, while Ga per

 There you have the general resume of Moonlight Follies,'' which is pre- dicted will prove one of the most thoroughly enjoyable pictures the Strand has shown for some time.
 Marie Prevost's role is that of Nan Rutledge, pampered and spoiled daughter of Major Rutledge, multi millionaire. Father grew tired of the butterfly life daughter was leading and abruptly told her she must marry and settle down. Yes, but who-that was for daughter to decide, and with her usual happy -go-lucky style, sec ing the silhouetted shadow of a man on the office door, promptly advises papa that was the man. The shadow proved to be Tony Griswold, con- firmed cynic and woman-hater: and, vamp as she might, Tony would not fall for Mans baby stare and winsome charm. This was the first man who did not topple after the first attack, and he interested Nan. But no man was immune from the grace of Nan; the girl knew that. and she persisted: finally Tony proposed and she ac- cepted, and then believed she had made a mistake. and changed her mind before her friends. But Tony was as much of a cave-man as he was formerly woman hater, and when he abducted Ann-"drug" her off to his to his mountain retreat-and practi- cally scared love into her heart, Nan realized she had met her Waterloo, and they lived happy ever after.
 Moonlight Follies" is the picture which attracted so much favorable comment on the coast when it was recently screened in Los Angeles. Every reviewing magazine published has taken especial pains to congratu- late Universal on the elevation of Marie Provost to stardom, and the star on her artistic accomplishment registered in Moonlight Follies."
 The Strand will screen as added attractions the Mutt and Jeff comedy and the Pathe News.

 The slightly deaf person met an old acquaintance on the street. This old friend was always making big deals and telling of them. when he stopped his deaf acquaintance he be- gan talking excitedly. The slightly deaf man listened but didn't under stand word. When the acquaintance had finished he said:
 Congratulations. That's fine. Mighty glad to hear It." supposing of course that his friend was telling him of the successful consummation of big deal. The acquaintance slightly taken back by this. shouted that perhaps he didn't get him. With long look upon his face the slightly deafman replied that maybe he didn't. The acquaintance shouted as he started away: '1 say I buired my mothers Jaw yesterday"

 That's the latest thing in vamping, and it is in the role of such vamp that Marie Provost, former bathing beauty, now full-fledged star in her own right, appears in the Universal attraction Moonlight Follies," which opens a twoday engagement at the Strand this afternoon.
 Marie Prevost-she of the naughty eyes-and the baby wink-she of the vivacious smile and the bewitching manner-one of the most famous of all the famous Sennett beauties-has a wonderful vehicle in Moonlight Follies." It is beauty and grace; it is wit and humor; it is romance and love; it is surprises and clever twists: it is feminine pulcnritude and femi- nine beauty; there are moonlight dances and bathing parties; there are auto rides and society gambols; there are girlish whims and girlish fancies; there are lounge Hazards and per-

WITH THREE STARS
 RICH COMEDY OPENS
 AT R|ALTO TODAY

A happy, rollicking, breezy. snappy comedy, brilliant in its settings, law ish in the gowns and the display of pomp and wealth, presented by three stars-Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson and Elliott Dexter-appearing oppo site each other-Paramount's laugh ing special. Don't Tell Everything, continues as the Rialto's attraction for today and tomorrow.
 Don't Tell Everything" met with a most enthusiastic reception on it's opening yesterday, and it was the universal opinion of everyone who saw the picture that it is the last word in novelty and uniqueness.
 The cleverest sort of photography holds the interest at the highest pitch and this, coupled with the perfect de- lineation of the three leading players and the admirable support they re- ceive from the exceptional cast of
 surrounding plays, adds zest to Don't Tell Everything" that cannot but be appreciated by everyone.
 In theme it is highly romantic, de- lightfulIy natural and poignantly real. It discusses the question of engage
 ments along the lines of the advisa-
 bility of the boy and girl exchanging condolences as to past love affairs and shows the extreme danger of telling GNtA ILlii6s
 In the happiest sort of humor, it depicts the troubles that young chap found himself in in trying to explain to the girl who has promised to be- come his wife his possession of sev- eral photographs which she has found in his pockets, and of his being so un- questionably affectionate with the girls who appear in the said photo | graphs.
 It is the chaps trying to explain l the pictures; his wonderful line of | explanatory phrases; his wonderful | lies, and his wonderful sincerity in putting them over that furnishes no 1 end of fun for the reviewer; while, when, at the climax, it is the coming l into the story of a girl with whom ! the fellow has thought himself in
 love. a girl he had explained was in ] Africa, and the subtle battle of femi-
 nine wits, and masculine skill to steer

the bark of love through the troubled waters that keep the audience laugh ing merrily as the zippy action is un- folded.
 Elliott Dexter and Wallace Reid, as pals, carry the burden of the comedy; Gloria Swanson, as the girl in the en- gagement bargain, is immense. and Dorothy Cumming, as the girl in Africa" brings forth many an excla- nation of satisfaction with the brill iant portraiture she brings to her role.
 And the comedy is not without its thrills what with a polo game, a realistic collision of the ponies, the hurling to the ground of the two pals, a sensational storm scene, Don't Tell Everything is bound to satisfy the most unsuitable craving for excite ment.
 George J. Hayes. in addition to rem dering very pretty musical program for the picture, is featuring the l.. A. Music Publishing company's decided hit, Back to the Southland and You" played as an organ solo with song slides.
 Tuesday brings ''The Golem'' to the Rialto. with "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" scheduled to open its engagement next Saturday.
