Cotton Pictures

At KOzy Theatre, POcahOntas, Ark
on Saturday, Feb. IA, at /: 100 p. m,
there will be shown two moving pic
lures on profitable cotton production
under boil weevil conditions. There
will be no charge for admission and
everyone is invited and urged to be
present. They will be of particular
interest to the farmer and to the bust
ness man interested in agriculture.
white Magic" is the title of the
first of these pictures. 1t is a four
reel story of a typical cotton planter
whose prosperity has been destroyed
by the weevil, and who is brought back
to profitable cotton production through
the use of proper methods of culture
and fertilization, Nitrate of Soda play
ing big part in this accomplishment.
An interesting story has been woven
into this film production, which mater
tally increases the interest in the i'm
portant facts.
white Magic Turned Into Gold" is
the second picture to be show }. 1t has
Pocahontas star herald., 1925-02-12

very probably been called a Cotton
Cultural Picture" as in it are shown
those practices which are now being
generally recognized by our agricul-
tural authorities and successful grow
ers as being essential to the profitable
raising of more cotton to the acre.
Among the important facts brought out,
are: The fall destruction of the cot
ton stalks; the use of properly selected
and graded seed; the advantages of
closer spacing: Importance of terrac-
ing and drainage the use of the right
kinds of fertilizers, and the importance
Of the proper use of Nitrate of Soda
in this connection; the mixing of fer
tilizers at home, and the value of
thorough cultivation.
These pictures were produced and
are being presented by Mr.. William
$. Myers, Director of the Chilean Nj
trate Committee, New York City. Con
siderable care was taken To make these
pictures depict actual results from the
practices advocated, under average
field conditions. The very favorable
results shown from the use of Nitrate
Of Soda are typical of results being
obtained by farmers throughout the
cotton belt
Because of their educational value,
particularly timely just now when the
question of fertilizers and the success
of the coming crop are of so much inn
portance to the cotton grower, it is
felt that these two picures will prove
highly interesting and instructive.

| Holway goes back to the year 1860
when Oscar IIolway came into the
| firm. Although the name of Fuller
| and Holway is not personally repre-
scented in the business today, James
| Fuller Ingraham, Treasurer of the
| company, is the great, great grand
| son of the founder, the name coming
| down in an almost unbrOken line for

The manufacturing of f1our by this
concern dates back to 1876, when It
received the Gold Medal for the finest
/ soft wheat in America. The flour
mill was rebuilt in 1912 and has the
most modern facilities for milling
this superior make of flour under the
! name of lie .Grande. The new plant
| which replaced the one burned in
1922 was finished in eleven months
after the confagration. In setting
