How To Buy.

Beware of peddlers selling seeds.
Buy the cheap seed from unreliable
seedsmen and dealers only when you
want more weeds than you already
have. Buy only from reliable men
and buy the best grades they have.
Some of their poor grades may con-
tain undesirable weeds or lack prop
er termination. Look your seed
over before you buy and if you are
not satisfied, send sample to the
College of Agriculture, Madison, and
they will let you know. Examine
the label on the bag. The state law
requires each and every bag be la
beled as follows: Name of seed;
termination; Purity; and the name
of any noXious weed if present. You
may find the words "Trace of Can
ada Thistle" written on the label.
Would you buy a herd Of COWS hav-
ing a trace of contagious abortion?
mixed seeds" such as Glover and
Timothy are too often mixed in the
wrong proportions. Some as adver-
tised to contain 20 per cent of clover
and when tested the per cent Of Glow
er is only-5 per cent. Mix your own
seeds.
If you have seed to be tested send
a sample to the County Agent or to
the College at Madison. Tests are
made free of charge.
H. r. Noble, Co. Agent.

Canada Thistle.

Thistle is a weed pest that not
only spreads by it's underground root
stalks, but also by it's seed. Some
dispute this fact. Thistle is found in
all the grass seeds and grains, but
which it cannot be cleaned with the
best of machinery.
Our State Department Of Agricul-
ture has for years conducted a seed
testing laboratory where each year
thousands Of samples of seeds of all
kinds are tested for purity and germ
ination. This is done free Of charge
to farmers and a small charge is
made to dealers.

AT THE SAVOY.

One OF the tremendously dramatic
scenes in Norma Talmadge's newest
production, THE Eternal Flame"
which will have dts opening presen-
tation today at The Savoy Theatre,
is that which depicts General de
Montriveau preparing to brand the
great court beauty whom he believes
has ridiculed his love.
The Duchess OF Langeais. wonder
fully enacted by Norma Taimadge,
offers her beauty gladly. wildly. On
an abandonment of love, when he
pronounces his Judgment OF terrible
revenge on her. and waits unfiinch-
ingly for him TO brand her forehead
with the mark OF infamy. The scene
takes place in a room of forbidding
austerity. Through tho curtains of a
doorway the flare OF the FIRE and the
movement OF ominous men who are
preparing the irons can be seen, De
Montriveau enters and denounces
the Duchess. A masked man hands
him the branding iron. The Duchess
bares her forehead to receive the
terrible stigma. Then the general
finds he cannot mar her glorious
beauty.

by the presentation of THE Sheik"
may be- CLEANED from the photoplay
Burning Sands" which begins an
engagement at the Queen today.
This latter production was made as
mans answer 10 the call OF THE
Sheik" and Is produced by the same
man who directed the Valentino pic
ture.
The story was written by Arthur
Weigal. a well-known English Egyp-
tologlst, who has spent many years
OF his life among the Arabs. HIS In
innate knowledge Of their lives and
characters have helped him consid-
erably to paint them in his story.
Wanda Hawley will be seen as
Murlel Blair, an English girl. the
daughter OF a lord, who became at
first strangely attracted and then
desperately In love with one Daniel
Lane, a philosopher OF the desert.
This latter is the role, impersonated
by the capable Mr.. Sllls. Lane is an
admirable Character man who
believed the oonquering OF ones self
the first duty of every man. A third
and a chief character is that of Ii
zette, French dancer. whose life
becomes strangely intertwined with
that OF Muriel and Lane.

made a bold statement in the title
OF the play. Some people will feel
offended and inclined 10 disagree.
others will back the producer up
with results and the third dislnter-
ested parties will be inclined to
laugh.
Love Ls An Awful Thing" stars
owen Moore. famous for his own
ability and as a member OF the
Moore family OF motion picture
stars. It is generally conceded that
he has been provided with a vehicle
which is easily the best he has ever
had. Il is just riotously funny
story such as one might encounter
almost any day in real life. It's
screen telling calls for no absurdi-
ties OF costume or action and Its
laugh-interest is cumulative from
the first scene to the last.
