Maude adams at
Empire Again, but
Only as Spectator
Famous Actress Returns to
Scene of Her Triumphs to See
The Czarina.'

Back to the Empire Theater, the scene
of her greatest artistic triumphs in New
York. went Miss Maude Adams last night
to see play. 1t was the first time. as
far as anybody knew. she had been in
the playhouse so full OF memories to her
since early in the war. With character
istic modesty and desire to avoid pub
licity. she bought seats from one OF the
agencies and slipped quietly past the
doorkeeper with Mr.. and Mrs. ]. S. Love-
joy and saw a performance OF THE
Czarina," with Miss Doris Keane in the
title role.
If she could have found her seat with
out a SOUL knowing she was there, that
would have pleased Miss Adams most.
but TO get her past the portals unrecog-
nized would have been too much OF a
task even for Peter Pan. She was rec
osnized. and friends at the theater who
knew her we'll saw that she and her
friends found their places in the second
box from the stage on the right and
were made comfortable. For this they
were rewarded by bright smiles and
murmured thanks.
AS she passed slowly through the in
ner lobby Miss Adams looked wistfully
AT the pOrtra1tS or herSelf, MISS Ethel
Barrymore and William Gillette on the
walls and paused to shake hands witt,
Peter Mason. who is proud OF twenty
eight years of service at the Empire.
She also stopped for a word or two
with William Newman, the theate.'
manager, whom she had not seen since
he accompanied her on a tour to the
Pacific Coast years ago and then join ed
up with the navy.
Efforts were made to learn something
of Miss Adarnss theatrical plans, but
she adhered to her rule Of years not to
be interviewed. and all that could be
found out was that she was down from
Schenectady. where she is said to be
doing wonderful things with new sys-
tenn OF lighting for motion pictures, to
have little rest and see some of the
plays.
There could be no doubt that the re-
turn to the Empire, even as a spectator,
meant much to this most famous OF
American actresses. And that her
thoughts went back over the years
when she worked there with Charles
Frohman in producing some of the most
delightful plays the American stage has
seen. there could be no doubt Of that
either. But che kept her thoughts to
herself entirely as far as the public is
concerned. However. there was a story
to write-Maudc Adams was back in the
Empire.

Sowing Grain
1t is known, of course, that the
south is not naturally small grain
section, but every year someone
clearly demonstrates that small grain
can be profitably grown when cor
rect methods Of culture are practiced.
There are many factors that con-
tribute to poor grain production in
the south. but the chief one is Inn
proper time in planting. Nearly
every farmer knows that much better
crops of oats are possible through
fall planting, yet. they go on year
oats until spring and very frequently
don't make enough to justify cutting.
Unless soil is very rich and seed
gotten in early, Npring planting does
not pay, but on reasonably good land
and adequately prepared, fall sown
oats will yield profitable crops and
rarely prove failure. Rye and bar
ley both do well in the south, but
they should be sown in October, so
as to perfect their growth before hot
weather ensues in late spring. Some
farm operations can be put off or
postponed, but the sowing of small
grain cannot If success is to attend
the effort.
October and November should be
very active planting months for the
Alabama farmer. Beside small grain,
many grasses. clovers and other for
age plants should be gotten in

For the most part, wheat fluctuat-

ton was noted, the amount of new

prove sufficient to absorb profit

upturns in values. These upturns

as well as by increasing demand for
wheat available for ready shipment
to Europe through ports on the Gulf
of Mexico.
Rail and lake transportation diff
ficuities rendered the wheat market
perplexing to forecast. Lake freight
charges for wheat rose to the high
est point ever known, and export
ers at the Atlantic seaboard were
represented as curtailing offers for
wheat aboard, the unlikelihood of get
ting supplies on time being de-
cided hindrance. Relief from
drouth that has delayed the Sow
ing of winter wheat tended to ease
the market little as the week drew
to n close. Buying of corn was on
n broad scale during much of the
week. with current crop estimates
acting as the chief incentive.
Oats moved up with corn.

A. There are many good varieties,
but the following list is particularly
good, have been and are growing in
Alabama and all do well: Abund
ancek Burbank. Francis, Golden
Beauty Red June, Shropshire. Dam
should place orders for as many
plants as you will need right away.
The best time to set out in this lati-
tude is probably December January.
Good stock cost from soc to Use, de-
pending on quantity.
@. l have an amarylls in a gallon
pot that has been grown for two
years without blooming. 1t makes
foliage 80 to 40 inches long. What
could be the matter? There is tiny
white fly that infests the undersde
of my fuschia and pilargonium
leaves. What is the remedy? Where
can I get lime sulphur and what does
it cost by the ounce? Mrs. r. e. b.,
Bankhead
A. If you will allow the amaryllis
to die down until about next Febru-
airy or March. and then repot in q
larger vessel or in the open ground,
/ think 1T viii bloom. The vessel is
too small for the variety, and the
plant has not had long period of
rest that is due it each season. 1t is
hard to say from your description
just what insect you are troubled
with but spray of strong soap
suds to each gallon of which add tea :
spoonful Of nicotine sulphate, will
doubtless control. Spray thoroughly
! and repeat at week intervals until
relief is had. Seed houses sell lime
sulphur in the dry form at 20 cents
per pound.
@. am sure my hardy hydrangeas
need cutting back. as they done lit
tie good this year. Would it be all
right to do this now or would a lit
tie later be better? A. j., West End.
A. Any time this month would do.
but 1t Is generally deferred in this
latitude until November, the begin
ming of tina natural dormant period.
Q. have few pounds of the
small, early white milan turnip left
from last spring. Do you think this
variety would make turnips large
enough to sell before frost would
destroy? ]. O.. Huntsville.
A. The milan turnip make small,
salable turnips much quicker than
any other sorts, and IL weather con-
uitions give them chance they have
plenty time 70 make. They won't
stand much cold because the bulb Is
produced right on top of the ground.
.. Would you risk crop of spin
ach planted as late as now? s. C.
A. l certainly would. because the
dry weather has destroyed pracsi-
cally all that has been planted. and
il you do succeed the chances are the
price will be high. The prospects are
for plenty rain from now on.
Q. have some abelia shrubs plant
ed close to a house that have long,
naked branches and only leaves and
few flowers at the extreme ends.
Is 1t possible to make these naked
branches produce foliage? Mrs. 2. w.
A. Your plants are undoubtedly too
close to the foundation of the house
and do not get enough sunlight or
air. They should be moved out from
the house, cut back to near the
ground and they will soon grow out
new foliage. They should be cut
back whether you move or not.
