MADAM BEHAVE ADDS
To M|RTH Of NATION

Al Christie's latest contribution
to the mirth of a nation is unique
because of the fact that it presents
to- picture audiences Julian Eltinge
and Ann Pennington, two star arti
lists of immense drawing power on
the stage, and popular favorites of
motion picture fans.
Madam Behave" as the name
might indicate is farce in skirts
and is widely known as "a cousin to
Charles Aunt" The latter by this
time has gone down in screen histroy
as one of the biggest screen comedy
triumphs of the decade. 1t made Sid
Chaplin screen star Of the first
magnitude.
1t may be said incidentally, that
Madam Behave, which features
Julian Eltinge, the world famed
woman impersonator, and Ann Penn
ington, foremost American jazz dane
er. and which will be on view at the
Liberty Theatre tonight, completes
a triumvirate of international farces
produced by AL Christie
In addition tp the featured players,
some of the big laughs are created
by pair of funny chaps played by
Lionel Belmore and Jack Duffy. Ell
tinge himself is seen in three of
every four scenes of the picture in |
feminine garb, and for the rest APP
pears in mans clothing. The comedy |
is said to be a veritable magazine of |
laughs and smiles.

In the railroad group, Southern Pa
cific was bid up points to 1854, the
highest price since 1911, in expecta-
tions of an early increase in the an
nual dividend. Canadian Pacific, New
York Central, Chesapeake and Ohio
and several of the other investment
rails advanced points or more. Heavy
buying of the ST. Paul issues was in
anticipation of an early approval of the

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Dec. 9 (R)--Accelerated
movement of corn to leading market
centers, especially in the southwest,
did good deal today to put the corn
market on the down grade Besides,
favorable weather for curing and
husking of corn prevailed. On the
other hand, somewhat better export
call developed for wheat.
Closing quotations on corn were un-
settled, asc to &c, net lower Wheat
finished at 7sc to- 14c advance, oats
showing l1sc to sc, gain, and provi-
sions varying from &c decline to a
rise of 15c.
Right from the. outset, selling pres
sure both from holders and from
spectators was evident in the corn
market SO much was this the case
that throughout large part of the
day, all the cereal pits and provisions
as well were dominated by the action
of corn. Weakness in the corn market
was largely associated with the fact
that primary receipts of corn were
broadening out, and that today's ag-
gregate was 100000 bushels, against
$4,000 bushels week ago and $4,000
bushels on the corresponding date last
year
Kansas City in particular loomed up
with liberal receipts of corn, and spe-
cial notice was taken of the fact that
yesterdays official figures on Kansas
City arrivals were 245 cars compared
with only 81 cars year ago. Con-
siderable attention was also given to
assertions that despite smaller indi-
Gated available total supplies of corn
this season than last year current
values of corn are much more than
correspondingly higher and that any
thing bullish in the corn situation has
been well allowed for 1t appeared
however, that export bids today for
corn were about on working basis.
Wheat developed relative strength in
the late dealings, although earlier the
market was inclined to sag. The re-
covery was ascribed to indications Of
improved demand for domestic wheat
with sales of No. hard to Georgian
bay ports at the highest premiums of
the season. Meanwhile, the seaboard
announced sales of 100000 bushels for
export in all positions and Canadian
country marketings were reduced to
l $4,000 bushels against 1,762,000
bushels last year. Oats rallied with
wheat.
Provision trade was light, and prices
on motion deliveries were about steady.

NEW YORK, Dec 9 up - Selling
pressure suddenly ceased soon after
the opening of today's stock market,
and brisk rally took place throughout
the list Early declines OF l to points
were largely wiped out and several
of the pool favoriteS closed to 10
points net higher. Trading showed a
moderate falling off in volume, but
total sales were wen above 100000
shares.
There was nothing in the days news
to account for the sudden change in
speculative sentiment, Bears" con-
tinued to hammer the list at the open
ing, stresSing the increase in brokers
loans, the falling off in freight car
loadings and the veiled warning against
securities speculation in the Chicago
speech of President Mitchell of the
National City Bank.
General Motors, which has repeat
edly resisted assaults to break the price
below 125, was again the center of
attack 1t dipped to 1855, but ex-
cellent support was quickly forthcom-
ing Other industrialS and rails which
had been freely sold earlier in the
week, and displayed better resistance
on the theory that the recent reac-
ton had sufficiently corrected, at
least for the present, the weakened
technical condition of the market, and
by noon general covering movement
was under way which continued to
the close.
u. S. Steel common sank to a new
low on the current movement at 1873,
or nearly 10 points below last weeks
high, and then rallied to 142, closing
Just below that level for net gain
of 3% points The November tonnage
figures of the steel corporation, which
will be made public at noon tomor-
row, are awaited with considerable in
terest. Substantial gains were record
ed by some of the so-called independ-
ent steels Midland Steel Products,
which has been fluctuating within a
wide range in recent weeks, jumped 6
points to 22415 Transue and Will
liams, which is reported to have a
large Ford contract, was run up near
ly points to new peak at AZ, or
nearly 5 times the years low of $40
share. Gulf State advanced 81
points and Bethlehem, Crucible and
youngstown point or more.
Heavy accumulation of the airplane
shares, based on expectations of a
rapid expansion In commercial air
routes next year, sent Wright up 8
points to new peak at 1872, and Curtis
up more than points to a new top
at So, but profit taking cut down the
gains. Greene Cananea continued to
respond to reports of the discovery of
rich ore body by rallying from a
low of liz to a record high of 122A,

storage. The greater portion of the
celery house Is below ground level,
the roof being just high enough to
allow a person to walk through the
center aisle. When well banked with
earth or strawy manure, such build
ing will keep celery safely until after

grower can utilize the large green va

but are difficult to blanch properly

Late Autumn and early Winter is
an excellent time to broadcast lime
over the garden. During the Winter
whatever caustic properties may be
in the\lime will be lost. Fresh ground
limestone at the rate of / pound per
20 square feet or hydrated lime at the
rate of l pound per 40 square feet
makes an effective application. Most
all vegetable plants are benefited by
Inning. some. the beet and spinach
being in particular need of neutral
soil. Washington soils are generally
strongly acid and respond we'll to lime
applications, Hydrated lime is the
form most generally offered for sale.
Rhododendrons, aZaleas, blueberries
and the various heaths are acid-l loving
species and should not he lined.
Bank up the tender roses, teas and
hybrid teas with soil to protect the
wood from injury. Some of the young

this matters but little so long as the
strong growth at the base is saved.
Winter is a fine time to remove the
dried plums. cherries and peaches

IRIS TEST GARDEN

Iris fancievs will be interested TO
learn that the National Capital and
Iris Society of this city is establishing
an Iris Test Garden at Walter Reed
Hospital The garden has already
been planted and at the present time
contains 1900 plants comprising about
a5o different varieties These are
planted by varieties according to color
likenesses. The pallidas. the plcatas
the Naricgatas the amoenas etc, are
planted separately. In this way one
can easily check old varieties which
he may have with those in the garden
and secure the correct name and at
the same time. compare them with the
newer ordinations. A great advance
has been made in the Iris world in the
last 10 years toward the perfection of

ferousness We are fortunate to have
