Playing to packed houses from the

The feature film is not just a fash

an amusing farce comedy with lux
uriant show of fashionably gowned

RTALTO-"The Magic Garden"

Some weeks ago the Rialto audi
ences saw ''Laddie." the famous story
of Gene Stratton Porter. This work,
in the screen version, was a good pic
ture. and this week audiences see
'"The Magic Garden" Mrs. Porter s
last novel. pictured with all the charm
and beauty which characterized Lad
die"
The juveniles of 1.-THE Magic Gar
den" are the outstanding players.
Joyce Coad is a little actress who does
much to make the picture, and Phillip
DE Lacey, who plays the part OF the
young violinist, is equally good.
The picture, carrying all the at
mosphere of the novel, has an open
ness, a cleanness, a freshness about 1t
that is seldom encountered in films.
It is not like "Laddie' in its outward
features, but the connection is easily
seen and any one who could enjoy
the former film will certainly enjoy
the present. In the matter of scenes
and photographic art it equals any
shown here in recent months.
The comedy of the week is one OF
"The Newlyweds" series, with the
family on a shopping tour and
"Snookurms" as the leading comedian
On the stage Franklin Ricord and
Bunny Beverly give program OF
songs and piano numbers, making an
interesting feature. The orchestra is
all that can be expected, and the news
reel gives every one a chance TO get
up and move around.

John Barrymore, in his first United
| Artists picture, presented at Loew'
Columbia this week, could not have
had a more colorful nor more delight
! full story than that of the the French
beggar-poet, Francois Villon. For
| the most, he does eXcellently with
! the part throughout an intensely in
teresting picture which, as is often
the case in the movies, does not fol-
low the original story too closely.
There is little of the restrained
Barrymore that one is familiar with
on the stage, however, in this pic
ture. He is a care-free, wine and
woman loving leader of his beggar
band. After the first few scenes he
gets into his stride and plays the
part as only Barrymore can play
it. AS NilIon. poet, beggar and
leader of the Paris mob, he matches
wits with Louis XI, the mad king
of France, and comes out on top.
Banished from Paris because of an
offense TO the Duke of Burgundy, he
returns and convinces the king of
the Burgundian's treaChery and is
made a court faVorite. He eventually
wins the hand of the kings ward,

L1TTLE THEATER-'PotemIsin. .

"Potemkin," the feature presented
by the Motion Picture Guild. packed
the Little Theater to capacity on the
first week end of this venture. The
film is based on a report Of a revolt
in the Cars navy in 1905 and is ex-
ceedingly realistic in spots. The re-
volt was caused by the failure of the
officers of the cruiser Potemkin to
remedy the rotten conditions on the
ship. Officers are pitched overheard
and the whole town of Odessa rises in
revolt in sympathy with the crew.
From then on there is an abundance
of action. There are many spectac-
ular scenes of the revolt and the note
of realism is intense and vivid. With
no star and little plot, the story is in
tensly interesting to the end.
Charlie Chaplain in "A Dogs Life, "
supplies the comedy, the film being so
old that it is new to most of the au-

MEETINGS seen

The recommendations of the agri-
cultural economic conferences held in
Montana last winter for the purpose
of drawing up programs of agricul-
tural development are having their
effect upon the farming operations
in the state this spring. according to
reports from county agricultural
agents as the present planting season
draws to a close. There has been a
decided increase in the use of pure
seed of adapted varieties in planting
grain crops, there probably will be a
greater acreage of summer 2ollowed
land than ever before, and in areas
particularly favorable for livestock
enterprises the acreage devoted to
feed crops such as barley. oats and
rye, tame pasture and hay has been
| greatly increased.
! In western Montana the economic
conference recognized the need for a
cooperative egg marketing associa-
tion and recommended that such an
organization be formed. Latest re-
ports indicate that the output of TO-
900 birds has been contracted for
under a cooperative contract and that
as soon as 10000 birds are assured,
legg marketing under the proposed
plan will be started,
In Chouteau county steps have been
taken to establish livestock market
ing organizations to develop direct
shipping between livestock producers
and feeders, as recommended at the
north central Montaia conference al

ing there has developed a decided in
terest in better breeding stock for the
improvement of existinO dairy herds

COAL PRODUCTION
DECREASED IN '26

Montana's total production of coal
in 1926 amounted to 2,831,849 tons
valued at $7,415, $50. Production in
1925 was approximately 233,000 tons
greater tina last year, according to
figures prepared by the state board
of equalization. Production dropped
heavily in Carbon county due to the
fact that coal formerly mined for the
Northern Pacific Railroad is now pro-
duced in Rosebud county at the rail-
road eompany's strip mine.
The ten leading counties of the
state with their 1926 production are

packing plants. This portion of the
movement of livestock, of course
makes up the invisible supply and
has many times resulted in overSup-
plies being thrown into trade chan
nels, causing congestion and losses to
the producer through the breaking
down of prive levels on the animal
and to the packer, on the other hand
through the decentralization Of the
dressed meat trade.
In centralizing the livestock supply
at marketing centers it is possible to
determine the packer demand and
gauge the flow of livestock as closely
as possible to meet this and no more.
Of course, when the volume moving to
market is properly adjusted to the
demand and the entire buying power
is centralized at the given point the
closest possible coordination between
supply and demand results and natur-
ally reflects itself in stabilized prices
However, when the foreign element
of direct movement is injected inte

ing only a small percentage of the

power at the marketing centers is
split and the tendency is toward
depression until the outside supplies
have been absorbed and the demand

correcting itself as the tendency or

playing their instruments, and at 8
O'Clock all the bells of the city were
ringing without much regard for har-
mony of sound; their discords, how
ever, producing an accord. of patri-

by the exercises of the day.
The grand parade started from the
open square west of the court house
about IL o'clock. 1t marched down
Main street to Church, and returned

The Bozeman courier., 1927-07-08

The value of specialization in prac-
tically every line of production has
been amply demonstrated of recent
years. Following alonO these lines
so far as marketing and distribution
are concerned Capitalization has prov
en- highly essential.
This has proven particularly true
in connection with livestock both
from a marketing and distributing
standpoint as through the centraliza-
tion of supply at given points proper
ly located to best serve the consum-
ing centers visible supply is Great
ed and for this reason a more orderly
flow may be attained.
One of the most important links
in the marketing of any commodity
is buying power and in order tnat
this power may function most ettlcl-
emily it must, Of necessity, be central
lied. That is, bring to a focal point
the buying forces so that the demand
may be gauged and the supply ao-
| justed as closely as possible thereto
The Capitalization of this buying
power fits in admirably with the
grouping together at certain points OF
meat packing establishments and the
many economies derived from by-pro
ducts resulting from this methOC
react directly to the benefit of th'
producer.
One of the obstacles in the pas
which mas confronted the development
of central points through which th
livestock supply may be passed ha
been the direct movement of livestocl

Acreage devoted to both seed and

curtailed as compared with 1925. This
reduction in acreage has continued
for two or three seasons according
to the 1927 Montana Farm Review,
published by the United States bur-

publicity division Of the state de-
partment Of agriculture, labor and in
