son, a petite and charming lassie
gave series of classic dancing and
poses which delighted the large au-
dience, and gained the dancer un-
stinted praise and applause. Miss

the best plays this popular screen
artist has ever played in. Henry

of nation. You will laugh over
Owen Moore's embarrassing situa-
tions.
Tomorrow afternoon and night
the film attraction will be Mildred

night.

CANNOT GIVE AWAY A DRINK

The final chapter in the move to
make the giving away of drink of
intoxicating liquor an offense under
the 1920 prohibition law was writ
ten when Judge Gus Thomas in the
Court of Appeals overruled the mo-
ton of w. w. Simpson, of Butler
county, for rehearing of his case.
Simpson was charged with giving
away a drink of liquor and the find
ings of the Butler Circuit Court
which declared the gift of a drink
of liquor a violation of the 1920
prohibition law was sustained. In
the motion for the rehearing Simp-
son asked for a modified opinion
and this motion was dismissed also
by Judge Thomas.

and the majesty came out second best

decided otherwise.

Then he got in touch with Chief
Petty Officer Hart of the U. S. S. Utah,
but he wasn't seeking the assistance

1t just happened that Hart was the
husband of the woman in question,
Mrs. Hart, and when he heard that
Dan was having considerable trouble
getting his English bride into the
United States he just naturally got ali

He arrived at Ellis Island along

But having served several bitches

FORTUNE IN OLD BRIDGE
Given Away by Railroad Company, 1t
Sells for 1855 900.

Baltimore, Dec. 13.-Twelve years
ago the Pennsylvania railroad gave
away an old bridge over the Susque-
hanna river at Havre de Grace to pri-
vate interests; the building of a new
bridge had made it, apparently value
less. Automobiles ever since have
been crossing the structure in increas-
ing numbers, and the men who got the
bridge for nothing in 1910 recently
sold it to the state of Maryland for
$5S5, 900. And in the twelve years it
was in their possession, they pocketed
$4,000 in dividends, all in toll
charges collected from motor cars,

COTTON CROP, JULY 1922.

Nashville, Aug. 3.-Crop prospects
as a whole are better than they have
been for years at this season Of the
year, according to reports received
from correspondents in the carious
counties by Commissioner of Agricul-
ture T. F. Peck. The reports are for
the crop month ending July 20.
| The reports from West Tennessee
and the cotton producing counties in
Middle Tennessee shows the cotton
crop in good good condition, the per-
centage showing 80 as compared with
n at the same time last year. The
acreage in cotton this year is about 20
to 20 per cent increase over that of
last year, and if favorable weather
conditions continue, there will prob
ably be production of about $4,000
bales. Damage by the boil weevil, ac-
cording to reports, will not be as
great, as it was feared earlier in
the season on account Of rains. Re-
cent dry, warm weather has been fine
for cotton and it is fruiting well. The
fields are clean and in a good state of
cultivation.
A large part of the corn in the
State was seeded late, and conditions
have been favorable. At the present
time the indications are for one of the
largest yields in the history of the
State. Rains generally have been
abundant and timely, allowing for
cultivation, and fields are reported in
good condition. The reports as to
wheat yield in the state indicate a
little above IL bushels to the acre.
In the tobacco belt the fields are re-
ported in good condition, and pros
poets are now for large yield. There
has been some report of "wild fire" in
tobacco fields, but the damage on this
account will be slight. The fields are
IN good state of cultivation and the
plant is developing well.
The yield of Irish potatoes will be
about up to the average in the State,
but there will be a largely increased
production of sweet potatoes.
A fine hay crop has been saved in
the State, and the condition Of pas
lures is reported good.
The yield of fruit in the State is
better than it has been in years.
Large shipments Of peaches are being
made from some sections. Canta-
loupes are also being shipped, and are
Of fine quality and bringing coed
prices. Several carloads of canta-
loupes have been shipped from Gull
leoka vicinity, and shipments from
that and other communities are ex-
pected to increase in volume.
From all sections of the State live
stock are reported in good condition,
and farmers are feeling better over
the advance in prices. An increased
supply Of hogs is noted. During the
past year the supply in this state was
smaller than ever before noted.

FINER FARMING

We have commented extensively on

been properly handled it looks fine,
o. L. Horton had heavy coat of bit
ter weed on some of his best land.
Several days ago he moved this pest
off. The beneficial effects are very
noticeable in finer grazing crop after
the weeds are removed. We can no
more expect to harvest good crop
from a pasture of weeds than we can
to harvest crop of corn from a field
