HALE HAMILTON AT REX THEATRE THURSDAY Hale Hamilton, the clever star of “That's Good,” the latest Metro com-| much Trouble Obviated by ‘nvention found edy drama which will be featured at the Rex theatre Thursday has achiev- od unusual-distinction both on the stage and screen. Mr. Hamilton rose to fame on the ‘boards through his clever delineation of virlle, dynamic roles in such pro- ductions as “Get-Rich-Quick Wal- lingford,” by George Randolph Ches- ter, a play which made him interna- tionally famous, “The Fortune Hunt- er,” “The Ne'er Do Well,” and “A Pair of Sixes. His stage success naturally led the young actor to the screen and he made his picture debut with Metro as leading man for May Allison in “The Winning of Beatrice.” His work was such that he was at once made a star and it was a coincidence that his first picture should have been “Five Thousand an Hour,” written especially for him by George Ran- dolph Chester, the author. of his _greatest stage success. Another Me- tro production in which he gained distinction was ‘“John on the Spot,” a dashing comedy-drama. Mr. Hamilton-is also a playwright and numbers among other plays, “The Return of Mary,” which he wrote especially for Mal Allison. He was born in Chicago and educated at the Shattuck Military Academy i"* where he was noted for his skill in athletics. Western Vaudeville Managers’ Assn.

CULVERT IS EASILY CLEANED of Grate or Iron Bars, Resting In Notchea % “Often culverts under roads and paths become clogged with debris and frequently give trouble because they cannot be readily cleaned. The de- vice {llustrited obviates all this diff- culty. It comsists of a grate of iron bars supported by crosspieces which rest in notches or upon the surface of stonework or eoncrete, says Ameri- can Agriculturist. The bars and the crosspieces should be of heavy enough material to support any load that will be driven across the grating. 3 The one from which this drawing was made is In a footpath, so the bars Grating Easily Lifted. were only 1% iInches wide and & quarter of an inch thick. The cross- pleces are of the same material, bent at the ends and riveted to the bars. All that is necessary to clean such a culvert Is to lift the grating and do the work with a spade or a hoe.

Procession of all kinds are to be in the streets of Stamboul, and with no trafic regulations it is diffi- cult to make much headway. In “The Daily Pageant of Stamboul” in the Travel Magazine, Miss Lucy ‘Garnett finds herself in mixed society. “In company with a large drove of tur- keys, we take our way along the broad straight street, lined wn either hand with shops. Presently the turkeys get into difficulties with a file of hamals bearing on their Atlas-like shoulders plles of bedding and curiously dec- orated chests and coffers. These bales and chests constitute the ' wedding trousseau and ‘plenishing’ of a Turk- sh bride.” The turkeys are soon re- marshaled to be dispersed many times before théy are finally landed safely near the great mosque where they are to be sold in celebration of 4 Mosiem festival.

GOOD FEEDING AND CARE GET REWARD Benefits resulting from good care and feeding of dairy stock are brought out clearly in,the April re- ports of Minnesota cow testing as- sociations made to and summarized by L. V. Wilson of University Farm, agent in dairying for the United States department of agriculture. There are 13 cows in each of two herds in a certain county association One, the highest producing herd in that association, returned an average of 52.3 pounds of butterfat to the ani- mal. The other, the lowest producing herd, 13.1 pounds of butterfat per cow, or 39.2 pounds less.per cow than the average production of the leading herd . 5 “The high herd,” says Mr. Wilson, “was fed silage and grain three times a day and hay twice. All feeding and milking was done .in a thorough and regular manner. The rations consist- ed of liberal quantities of bran, corn oats, oil meal, anid corn meal. Sixteen pounds of silage of poor quality and containing no corn was fed twice a day to each cow in the low herd. The hay, which was also of poor qual- ity, was fed in a rack in the, yard. one and one-half pounds of ground oats were fed. Regularity was not observed and the hbarn was not kept sanitary. ‘The cows were turned out Cut Baking Costs Start economy In the kitchen, re- duce the cost of baking—save and serve the purest, s ! most wholesome | m— b — Use the Baking Powder that saves materials it Is used with.
