DANES OPENSAT
 STATE TOMORROW
BIOndeII, Powell, Keeler, Pitts and Kibbee Head
 Stellar Cast

Warner Brothers. creators of the first motion picture musical. have outdone themselves in "Dames", their latest, which opens at War ners' State theater tomorrow. It overtops even their own "42nd Street." ''Wonder Bar" and ego Million Swethearts". "Dames is more than musical: it is the most lavishly staged. spectacle imagin- able. It is more than q musical spectacle; 1t is ' miracle of camera mechanics and stage mechanism. It has a real plot; more beautiful girls and highly trained dancers than have ever been gathered in any one motion picture; it has six song hits: it has sixe <of the screens leading stars.
 Joan Blondell. Dick Powell, and Ruby Keeler head the all-star cast, which includes ZaSu Pitts, Guy Kibbee and Hugh Herbert, the three leading comedians of the screen.
 Busby Berkeley was responsible for spectacular dance numbers which really baffle description. Three hundred dancing girls. ca vorting to catchy music, on me- chanical contrivances that move in many directions, with remarkable innovations in camera angles, make the numbers as unique and sensa- tional as they are intriguing and beautiful.
 Never has Joan Blondell. ap- neared more beautiful nor more fascinating than as the wise-crack- ing, gold digging chorus girl who makes trouble for everyone with whom she comes in contact and who finally wins an eccentric mill lionaire, played by Hugh Herbert, whose mission in life was to cor rect the morals of everyone but himself.
 Guy Kibbee, as the cousin and would-be beneficiary of the mill lionaire, gives. an hilarious per- formance, and ZaSu Pitts, as the strait-laced wife of Kibbee, Is a real scream.
 The love interest is furnished by Ruby Keeler and Dick Powell. who can act as well as they can sing, which is superlative praise.
 The other parts are eXcellently played by Arthur NlHtoIi, I-Hil Re- gan, radios Singing Cop" sammy Fain, Arthur Aylesworth, Johnny Arthur, Leila Bennett and Berton Churchill.
 The. kaleidoscope" number in which the theme song "Dames" is sung, and the Ruby Keeler Mir age" in which comes the song "Eyes for You' completely awed the audience.
 Warren and Dublin, Fain and Kahal, and Dixon and Wrubel are the three leading teams of song- writers of today. They are respon- sible for the original songs written especially for "Dames." The audi ence leaves the theater whistling them.
 In. all, "Dames' is one of the finest, cleverest, cleanest comedies screened in many day; it Is the greatest of all screen cpectacles to date, and makes good its produ- cers' claim to be the master of all mammoth musicals.
 A big special surrounding pro- gram accompanies it.

 POLRS TOMORROW
Comedian Makes Come back in The Cats Paw;
 Mickey Mouse Listed

Poli's again makes a ten-strike fin bringing to Waterbury at the same time, it is current at the Mu- sic hall in New York one of the greatest comedies that has ever been shown on any any screen we are referring now to the latest laugh vehicle of Harold Lloyd ''The Cats Paw"
 In this picture Lloyd casts aside the youthful roles that have always been associated with his brand of comedy and appears full-grown and what a change there is to his picture. Everything is new in his method of fun-making, but the
 spectacles that he is associated with and how you will relish this new departure on the part of the worlds greatest comedian.
 It is only the perfect story that has brought Lloyd back on the screen for a prolonged absence has been caused by him not thinking that the material offered him was what he desired and when 1t Is con- sidered that this funster has been for Is years making comedies he ought to know when there Is some thing sensational coming along and that is what is promised in this feature.
 In support of the star is \ cast that ranks with anything ever ot- fered to amusement seekers, imaS- inc a stellar array such as Una Merkel, Nat Pendlcton, warren Hymer, Alan Dinehart. George Bar bier and many more of the same caliber and you have an idea or the immensity of this comedy.
 As an added feature there Will also be another In the very popular cartoon series of Mickey Mouse this one being titled orphan Benefit"-and what this popular little rodent does in this picture is a caution, he is ably assisted by all his performers such as Horace Horsecollar, Minnie, and Of course, faithful old Pluto will also be in the cast as there would not be Mickey
 Mouse cartoon without the faithful 'pooch.' .a there will be the usual carefully selected shorts that have become a part of Poli theater programs ana are relished by the audiences or this theater.
 Tonight is the final showing of superb double feature program made up of two features that alone
 would he the top attraction, on the program of any other theater-they
 are Paris Interlude" and T cant Escape"

others do not, 1t pays to Gull the

Ing flock only the hens that do not

In studies Of poultry breeding at
the United States animal husbandry
experiment farm. at B~eltsville, Md,
Department of Agriculture inves-
tigators found that In the flock Of
Rhode Island Reds the pullets that
went broody laid on the average
about $50 eggs In their first year, In
comparison with an average Of ap-
proximately 205 eggs by the pullets
that did not go broody. The differ
ence of two dozen eggs In a year
would make q material difference
In the profit from a hen. The ten
dency toward broodiness Ia, to q
considerable degree, hereditary.
Broody hens are likely to have
broody daughters. In a few years
the culling of broody hens from the
laying flock would materially reduce
the broodlness of the flock.

Common black buckwheat Is. how

wheat will do fairly well on very
Door soil and under poor conditions,
but 1t will do better on good soil
and under favorable weather con

unless 1t Is sown very early, as
