MICHIGAN FARMERS
PROSPEROUS DESPITE
HEAVY GRAIN LOSSES

LANSING, Mich. Sept. So
United Press.)--Truits and truck
shrden products are proving the
"mortEsgc filters" for Michigan
farmers this year. despite heavy
losses on hay. wheat and grain
crops. .
Banks throughout the States
fruit belt report more prosperity
among farmers than at any time in
ten years. This bears out a report
from the State Department of Agri-
culture that bumper fruit and truck
crops last year and this year have
offset losses in wheat and grain.
Figures Of the yield this year arc
not yet available at the department.
Apple growers enjoyed record
crops with good prices last year, and
trees are loaded with the fruit this
year. Good prices are predicted for
this years crop.
Peach production is fully normal.
while the grape crop will equal the
record breaker OF last year, accord
ing TO Verne NJ. Church, state agrt.
cultural agent.
Cherries, expected TO be a failure
earlier, turned u n good crop, with
good quality and prices. Farmers in
some sections harvested 100 per cent
crop this year for the first time in
1fteen years, according to Church.
s~easonabie rains and plenty Of
sunshine reHulted in good truck
crops throughout the State.
Pears and plums are the only
fruits to fall below normal-the re-
suit of negligence more than any,
thing else, Church said.

ceremony the City of London today
elected" a new Lord Mayor to sue
coed the present incumbent. Edward
Cecil Moore. when tho latter's term

Actually. the citizens of the

10 do with the choice Of a chief
magistrate. and there was no cleo
tion In the popular sense. VIVA.
happened was that the '1iverymen"
ana members of the ancient Guilds"
met at the Guildhaii and nominated
tho senior alderman. Colonel Sir
Louis a. Newton. and there being
no opposition, Newton was duly de.
clarsd elected. This method of selec-
ton has proved satisfactory for cen
turtles. so the average Londoner
said, oh really, Who's Sewton7"
and let 1t 20 AT that.
Sir Louis Newton is Sc years of
age comparatively young for a Lord
Mayor. and is n Londoner by birth
and training. He Is Master of the
reltmakers' Guild and head of the
famous manufacturing firm bearing
his name. He has long been con-
nected with London's municipal
government. having been n member
OF the City Corporation since 1905,
and alderman aimee 1916. He was
Sheriff IN 1915 and was knighted for
wa services.
The office OF Lord Mayor is non
political. and nowadays is largely
ornamental, but It entails a heavy
round of ceremonial duties and obli'
cations. as well as many privileges
He has an allowance of 10000
pounds for his ear Of office, but as
the capitals official host 20 visiting
royalties and notables he generally
has to spend three or four times
this amount, so that there is no
profit attached to the job.
The new Lord Mayor takes office
November ., when he will be in
augurated with civic pageantry, in
cluding the famous Lord Mayors

CALL Of THE WILD"
At THE AMERICA TODAY

The long awaited perturbation of
Jack London's famous novel The
Call of the Wild starts at the
America today for a three-day run.
The hero OF the story is n dog
whose mother was a Scotch shep-
herd dog. The dog is called Buck
and, from p%uppyl.ood. is raised in
the luxury of civilization. Then he
Is stolen away 10 the Klondik,
where he experiences a strange
climate, meets strange men and
adapts himself to strange habits
and lahors. He Is a bewildered dog
until the strain OF his forefathers
begins to assert itself-until he feels
the call of the wild.
As Jack London wrote 1.-The Call
of the wild" around the life OF a
dog. SO has the picture been filmed.
It is Bucks joys and sorrows and
career that are dominant and the
human beings in the picture are
there only I'm their relation to
Bucks story. And Buck proves
himse'f an actor. Not only does
he faithfully follow the directions
OF his trainer, but his intelligent
face seems to express emotions.
Certainly. in dogdom. Buck Is not
a moron.
Buck is the personal property of
Hal Roach. who produced THE Call
OF the Wild" for Pathe. The dog
has been trained since puppyhood
for this role, for Jack london Il
Roach's favorito author and II has
long been his desire to film 1.-THE
Call of the Wild" When, w years
ago, he was offered the sale of a
Saint Bernard puppy. remembering
his desire and the type of dog neces-
sary for THE Call OF the Wild" he
bought the dog. because Saint Der
nards are 50 scarce.
He was promptly christened
Buck. in anticipation Of the role he
was t o play, and placed under the
care OF Lou Treesh, a special train
er OF dogs on the Roach lot. and
when he was two years old he was
considered sufficiently "rehearsed"
for his e role.
Fred Jackman was entrusted with
the adaptation and direction of
1.-THE Call OF the Wild" The care.
