FARM WOMEN TAKE
TO CURB" SELLING.
Marketing of Home Products
Described in Report to
Federation Branch.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. April 21.-Farm women
over the country have taken tip
from stock bl okers. They're selling on
the curb-only it isn't the same kind
Of a curb.
Women in rural districts in increas-
ing numbers are doing their bit to
keep the farm wheels turning by going
into market themselves with surplus
products, homemade preserves, canned
foodstuffs, baking and handicrsft-
even to bartering with city housewives
from the family automobile parked at
the curb.
This is sponsored and encouraged by
the women's division Of the American
Farm Bureau Federation and survey
of results announced by Miss Laura
Pfeiffer. service director, showed that
Farm Bureau women in Illinois, Ten
nessee and Alabama were especially
active in marketing.
Cooperative Selling Profitable.
Through cooperative selling, Illinois
farm women made gross sale OF
100000 in 1881 in 10 counties, accord
ing to a report made by Mrs. Henry
j. Mics, president of the Illinois Home
Bureau Federation. 1t was estimated
that $4,000 was net profit.
In Illinois the markets are Of three
types the booth system. in which each
contributor has a space in which she
sells her produce; the pool system, in
which produce is pooled and sold by
contributors assigned 10 do so, and
third, the food shop or tea room.
Commonplace products can be made
so attractive, If farm women will use
initiative. that city buyers scramble for
them, Mrs. J. D. Giles. Alabama Farm
Bureau Home and Community chair
man, said in her report.
Curb markets have been established
in % Alabama towns. Mrs. Giles re-
ported, and have answered a question
not new with farm women: How to
turn surplus products into cash.
Mrs. D. w. Bond, Tennessee Homes
and Community chairman, said the
farm women Of her State are finding
the curb markets profitable. The first
etlcl market was established at Jack
srS. Tenn. and market days are on
Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday morn
ings. Now there are others in the State
AH-year Market Planned.
Attempts are being made by the
federation to get the women to de-
velop an all-year around market by
adding to seasonal foodstuffs such
things as candies, cakes, salt rising, nut
and corn light breads, individual cheese
pies lamp shades, block printed fancy
work
And in the East the attention OF
the New York Federation of Home Bu-
reaus has been attracted to the wife
of a dairy farmer whose income has
been seriously reduced She is using
his surplus milk to make homemade
candies and is trying to market them.
Behind each article or product the
women are selling is a story OF farm
need" said Miss Pfeiffer.

Speedy action, thrilling bootball games, and all of tho sparkle or modern university lifo makes Rn- mon NovarrOs new starring fea- ture, "Huddle," which opened last night at tho Palace thcrtar, ono or tho most entertaining in his ca- rcer.
 His chara ctcrization of m Italian laborer who wins n scholarship to attend Yale university is m. en- tIrcly different type of roIe From his usual light, sophisticated por- tralals. , ties of an obscure mill hand who is thrown into strange social en- yironment. His violent reactions due to his intense pride provide complications that are worked out to n surprising climax. During the course of the action, he is Involved in rough and tumble fights and several varsity football games. Every play is carried out with smashihg power and there Is no softening in hitting the llnc. Mo- yarro shows plenty of driving punch" during all of tho athletic sequences.
 Touches of Comedy
 In many of tho dormltory scenes there arc touches of the comedy that the distinguished other No- varro partroyals. Most of tho action takes placo on the campus Of Yalo university and all of tho back grounds seem to be absolutely au- thentlc. The scenes on the walks about the old buildings arc partic- uiarly beautiful.
 An exceptionally strong support ing cast Is headed by Madge Evans in tho feminine lead. She portrays her role with grace and dignity through many difficult situations In tho production. Una Mcrkel uses her southern charms to cause un- rest among the student body of Yale and Is charming in her co- quottish appeals to mon on the campus.

5Sthe street, one--- Seventh avenue one. .#., LOIS MORAN.
 Of all the picture gang now floating around town, Lois Moran, Fin D'Orsay and Lupe Velez seem to be grabbing most of tho laurels. Lois has made big name for her. self as tho feminine lead fin tho musical comedy, "Of Thee I Sing" which has been running for some months now. And she Is earning her praises with splendid perfor- mances.
 Whether or not she returns to Hollywood for a picture or two thIs summer depends largely upon the success of tho show, sho told me-. If 1t continues playing to capacity houses, she probably will stay here.
 "Of Thee I Sing" also has an- other young actress who stands out quito distinctly--June o'Day. The way film producers are scrambling for new talent, miss my guess if she Isn't In Hollywood before tho year Is out.
 TIFI CREATES A RIOT. If q riot call for police reserves to keep order among tho crowds trying to jam Into a theatcr is any satisfaction. Fin DOrsay, Eddie Lowe and Vic McT.aglen should be pretty well satisfied. On the day they opened at tho Capitol in U skit from "rhe Cock Eyed World" 30 cops had to be called to keep order among the crowds. The act in itself isn't anything to excite one although Fih does draw big hand for her songs.
 Lupe Velcz Is over in Zlegfeld's "Hot-Cha," with all New York agreeing that she is tho hit of the show. Her act consists principally of impersonations of famous film folks, with an especially good one on Gloria Swanson. She will be home soon to resume her picture | alg
