That is kindred of the Dust,
an As ociated First National at

Seldom have we beheld pic

author and producer, and the tai

which is quickly developed at the
start Of the tale is carried with
out diminution throughout the SIX
reels. and the gathering momen-
tum results in a climax which IL
teraliy brings one out of his seat.
Especially noteworthy are the
spectacular Incidents of the story,
such as . rescue on the log jam.

Chinatown In Frisco
joys Along AS Usual
CRy lnItcd prcsS.N

San Francisco, Jan. 30.-De-
spite the ban on Chinese immi-
grafton into this country, San
Francisco's Chinatown continues
its placid existence, unperturned
by predictions that it would soon
die from "Americanization."
AND it seems TO be partaking
of the general prosperity Of the
country.
The inroads of "Americaniza-
lion" on the Chinese seem at best
to be merely superficial. The
"yolng bloodsp can be seen step
ping around in the latest "klassy
cut klothes," as up-to-date as any
college boy. Sometimes 4 glimpse
may be caught of one whirling
along at the wheel of some pros
porous Chinese merchants limou-
sine.
But when the day is done, they
+ turn to Chinatown.
There are few up-to-date

tremendous amount of advertising
that Alexandria has attained so
far through this government pro-
ject is of such magnitude that it
would be difficult TO approximate
but it 10 safe to say that no less
than a million people have been
appraised through the various
publications and pamphlets gotten
out by the Hay Trade and the De-
partmeat Of Agriculture of this
important work, and it will re-
dound in many ways to the prog
ress of tho cisy's growth, for the
fact that the Government should
select this city for the carrying
cut of this project, will likewise
influence outside capital and
manufacturers to investigate the
many facilities and natural adj
vGntages that form such an in
tegral part of the Gateway TO the
South. Some idea Of the magni-
trde OF the work may be gathered
from the fact that hay stands see
ond in value amongst all farm
products, only corn being greater
and the work of teaching the far
mer to raise better hay which will
return a bigger yield financially,
while only in it's infancy, bids
fair 70 outstrip the success and
growth of 5he Federal Grades on
Grain and Dairy Products. AL
ready several inquiries have bee
received from foreign countries
and IL is not entirely unlikely hat
representatives OF these countries
will spend some time here making
exhaustive studies of the work
done so far.
Not only has Alexandria the
honor and distinction, of being
picked for the location of the Lab
oratory that has made this pro-
.ect possible. out. it is further hon
ored by the fact that one of it's
native sons, Captain William NJ.
King. was the first Federal In
spector to be appointed by the
Secretary Of Agriculture to in
spet anGereport upon the condi-
ton and quality of hay under the
new Federal Grades. The grades
rave been adopted and put in:o'
effect in Richmond, Va, Phila-
lelphia, Penn. New York City, /.
Auburn, n. y, Boston, Mass, and
Chicago, IL. The technical and
laboratory work has been in
charge of Prof, II. 3. Mcclure,
Specialist in Hay Standardization,
assisted by Prof. M. "A. Crosby,
Botauist ard Specialist in Hay

Work is rapidly
going forward on the grades and

In that period $50 constructive en- terprises specifying limestone were reported to the association from all over the country.
