ALIAS JIMMY VALENTINE LAST TIMES AT PALACE

The use of dialogue to build up smashing dramatic climax in a phctoplay is illustrated in Alias Jimmy Valentino Metro -Goldwyn- Mayors first picture with talking sequences, which plays at the Pal ace for the last times tonight.
 The new picture remains ortho- dox and silent" up to the point where Jimmy, in the person of Will liam Haines, is seated in his office, in the bank of which his prospec- tive father in-law is president, and is visited unexpectedly by Doyle, the hard-boiled sleuth who knows of the safe-cracking exploits that preceded his reformation, and is eager to take him back to justice.
 At this point where the interest and excitement of the audience is presumably at it's highest pitch, up to the final fadeout, spoken words are used to supplement the cine matic action. The scene here is exactly the same as it would be on the stage, with Doyle in the person of the veteran actor Lionel

AL JOLSON LAST
 TIMES, COLISEUM

Al Jolson, the worlds greatest entertainer, is at the Coliseum for the last times tonight, in Warner Bros. latest all-talking, all-singing picture, Say It With Songs"
 Say It With Songs" is a per- sonality plus picture and packing personality into pictures is Al Jol- sons particular gift. Call it fervor magnetism, luck, wit-what you will this strange ability to electrify everybody belongs to just one per son-Jolson!
 There is probably more of Jolson in Say It With Songs" than in either of his other talkies. In some inexplicable way he dominates every one he touches while picture is in process of production and the talking camera and the taking cam era together catch all the brilliant high lights, and tender by-lights of his remarkable voice and presence
 Davey Lee and Marion Nixon are in the cast.

 Mulhall has a new leading lady in this picture. Pretty Patsy Ruth Miller is seen as the blushing bride. The big cast includes many players of cinematic prominence, including Eddie Gribbon, zasu Pitts, Jocelyn Lee, Blythe Chapman, Knute Brick son, Ben Hendricks, Jr., Gertrude

Proper Management of Fertilized
Pasture Essential to Greatest Profit
The use Of complete fertilizer on
pastures for the milking herd can re-
suit in maximum profit only when the
fertilizer is so applied and the pasture
so managed as to result in the maxi
mum saving in barn feeding expenses
and the maximum amount of grazing
at the time when extra grass is need
ed. Men who have had several years.
experience with the practice state
that complete fertilizer gives much
better results when applied very
early, say late March or early April,
than when applied at later date,
presumably because the plant foods
are soaked into the soil, where the
roots are, more effectively when the
fertilizer is applied early enough to
have the benefit of all of the spring
rains and perhaps late snow or two.
When fertilizer is applied at this
early date it may be, depended upon in
normal season to give good graz
ing ten days or two weeks in advance
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1930-03-27

of unfertilized land. That early graz
ing, which one would not have but for
the fertilizer, is worth the maximum
amount because it comes when it is
needed and replaces barn feeding. 1t
would be worth much less at the
normal peak of good grazing in June.
The best method of management
seems to be to apply the fertilizer
early, turn the cows on to the ferti-
lized plot as soon as the grass is large
enough to provide really good graz
ing and keep them there until the
whole plot is grazed rather closely,
then shift them to the unfertilized
land, which should be in fair condition
for grazing by that time, and keep
them entirely off the fortified plot
until it has made growth of three or
four inches.
By that time, the unfertilized pas
ture is likely to be getting short, at
which time the cows can be turned
back on to the fortified plot. By this
method of management, the extra
grass produced by the fertilization is
used just before and just after the
normal peak of best grazing on I'M
treated land and hence yields the
greatest possible return in terms of
manager feeding saved and increased
milk production.
If the fertilization and grazing is
not managed about as outlined, there
is strong probability that the extra
grass produced by the fertilizer will
come on or at least be eaten by the
cows at the period when the unferti-
lized pastures are at their best and
consequently will he of minimum
rather than maximum value to the
dairyman.

bridge building business will give him
enough prominence to help him on the
way to Annapolis. One never can
tell, but to date it is a conspicuous
fact that no one has attained the Gov
ernorship by getting close to the pres
ent Governor. Indeed, those who get
close to Richie seem somehow
to get that much further away from
the object of their ambition.
We would like to know who was
skillful enough to get the usually sa-
gacious Mr.. Griswold into this hon.
orary bridge building business framed
up by professional politician to help
fourth term ambition.
Political History
Repeating Itself
In October last a distinguished
Democrat who takes keen interest in
watching the movies on the board of
his own party, remarked that our more
or less famous Governor reminded
him Of rabbit. The rabbit, he ex-
planned, had few tricks, but only a
few, and never learned any new ones.
And it was further asserted that the
lowly rabbit when chased, will, if
given opportunity, return to the place
from which he started. Thus it was
reasoned that our Governor would
this year do pretty much the same
things he did four years ago when he
started the spontaneous petitions in
behalf of his own candidacy and got
the Conowingo contract going. True
it was that last Fall we didn't have
the Chesapeake Bay bridge in full
swing, but it was predicted that some
thing along that line would be pro-
posed by His Majesty to help his for
tunes.
So now we have it. Four years ago
men were to be given work on the
Conowingo dam. Now men are to be
put to work on the Chesapeake Bay
bridge and, of course, the right people
are to get the contract. Not worked
out fully yet, but that's the hint. And
the spontaneous petitions are being
toted around town by the faithful.
It's pitiful to note how gullible the
voters are supposed to be in this age
of enlightenment.
We Hear No More
Of the New Pemtentiary ~
As the state campaign progresses
we hear little or nothing of the selec-
ton of a site for the proposed new
Penitentiary and we suppose His Maj
esty the Governor has put on the
grand kibosh for political purposes.
We hear no more about the resigna-
ton of Stewart Janney as Director of
Welfare and the most we get is some
interviews and statements from the
so-called expert the Welfare Board
has brought from New York at con-
siderable expense. Possibly the pick
ing of the new Penitentiary site is to
be done by the new superwarden, for
such the New York expert" actually
is, and if we get things going in fine
shape Jack Hart, the missing bandit,
may hear of it and return to Mary
land voluntarily.
