COSJJgOE STATION. Tex.. Aug.
t —Fattening poultry lot market is
one abase of the farm business of
ten overlooked and a phase that
mfcjt be made profitable if gains of
12 yer esnt to 30 per cent in ten
days time are registered. Clyde In
gTwun. poultry specialist of the
Lcofeisra Intension Service, told
th». poultry group at the Farmers
Short Course, A. 6c M. College of
Thnfe Wednesday. "A pound of
gain usually results from a con
SJi/ption of three and one-half
prenyls of concentrated feed.” he
o?.M
Tin orocess of fattening poultry
la s&sple. requires little equipment
an*' the feed is easily procured and
used. During fattening the wu.er
in the muscles is replaced largely
by oil. the flesh is eiimarbled vith
dKiclcvs fat, the tendons lose their
Jtrtagbifss and the bird3 become
very plump and exceptionally well
filled In breast and back, the
speaker went on to say.
Chickens may be fattened either
h a ~mie or In the general pen, Mr.
Ing.am said, but experience has
shown that birds gain much faster
and more economically in crates.
The battery crate used in commer
cial plants is too expensive for the
farmer producer but a home made
stationary one is easily made. Scrap
lumber and old wire will do to make
the crates in units 10 feet long. 18
inches wide and 24 Inches high, di
vided into four compartments. It is
well to have the floor of the crate
30 inches above the ground and
made of ordinary plaster latl. run
ning lengthwise. The front should
be slatted vertically allowing 2 1-2
inches between them in order that
birds may reach through to c at
from the v-shaped trough which
bangs at the floor line on the
front of the crate. The crate should
be sheltered, shaded and well ven
tilated.

GALLANT CA PITULATION
Richard Dix and Esther Ralston in the Paramount talking picture,
“Wheel of Life," opening Thursday at the Capitol theater.
Brmard Fagan, now showing at the
Capitol Theater.
High up into the glacial slopes of
Mount Everest, king mountain of
the world, and into the secret re
cesses of the Buddhist monatseries
of Tibet, where sacerdotal Lamas
ponder their ancient wisdom in the
light of guttering butter lamps, went
the researchers who prepared for
the filming of “The Wheel of Ltte."
Much of the action of the pic
ture. which was made with full
dialog by the players, takes place tn
a temple of the Buddhist lamas or
high-priests, where only wry re
cently have travelers from other
lands and of other religions been
privileged admission.
Major Fairbanks Smith, who spent
14 years in the British army in
India, near the Tibetan border in
the Punjab, was secured by Para
mount as the technical director of
the production. Major Smith's
knowledge, gained through years of
study and travel, was celled upon
freely by architects, sound experts,
wardrobe designers, writers, set
dressers, property men and other
studio arti^ns. who had a part to
play in making the production ready
for the screen.
No picture that Paramount has
made in recent years has demanded
such assiduous research, such care
ful attention ‘o detail, such exacting
work on tfcte part of all.
Much of the genuine but mysteri
ous glamor of the Lama's cere
monials has been transplanted
faithfully and audibly to the plot of
the film, which gets its title from a
symbolic painting representing the
wheel of life, the philosophy of the
living, which Is found In every
Buddhist monastery.
RIVOLI—SAN BENITO
A torchlight procession on the
campus, showing all the color and
excitement of a pre-big-game rally
by college student ; for their foot
ball team. Is graphically shown In
"College Love’ the Universal feature
of collegiate Hie whicn opens at
the Rivoli theater, San Benito. Sun
day.
Since the entire picture is made
in full sound and u’alogue, this
scene, as well as an the other se
quences of the film, is particularly
realistic. “College Love" is the first
full length college picture in full
sound to be made and shown any
where.
On the evening before the big
game of the season, all the stu
dents of Caldwell college build and
light a huge bonfire and. carrying
torches, parade around the flaming
pyre. Co-eds. no less enthusiastic
than the men students, sine their
college tunes while they frolic and
skylark around the fire.
The entire gridiron contest,
which follows the next day also is
shown in complete detail with all
the excitement of the c.owd, their
songs and cheers be.ns reproduced
in sound. The intimate conferences
between the ccach and the riayers
between halves in the clubhouse,
as well as what actually happens in
a "huddle” in the middle of the
field, also are shown and can be
heard in accurate detail.

PALACE — M'ALLEN
In "The Barker." a stage plav of
carnival life originally and now a
film—A First National picture and
a George Fitzmaur.ee special pro- j
duction—audiences at the Palace
Theater in ' IcAl’en. where the
screen play is now showing, found
decided amusement and much hu
man interest.
Milton Sills la the star and does
a neat job in the title role, ex
hibiting fine restraint and a thor
ough understanding of the char
acter.
Dorothy Mackaill. co-starred as.
Lou. the carnival girl, is demurely
attractive and plays with fine dis
cernment. She has as the boy she
loves the Barker's son. that talent
ed young artist Douglas Fairbanks.
Jr. Bettv Compson as the hula
dancer and sweetheart of the
Barker, is a thing of beauty and
; flame.
The entire production is marked
by Filzmaurice's infallible taste
and brilliancy. The picture carries
a whimsical story of a peoole who
are so remote from the lives of
ordinary /oik that they might well
be dwellers in another planet, yet
•heir motives and reactions are all
humrn to a degree.
"The Barker” was a great stage
success. It deserves to be even a
greater success on the screen.

RIVERSIDE
TIRES '
•* * \ $ *
You can’t buy better quality, ser
vice or appearance • • • So why pay
*2 to *15 more for any other * e?
THERE are no "deep, dark secrets,” any more in
tire building.
Super Service and First Quality RIVERSIDE Tires,
for example, cost as much to build as any of the
five or six other leading makes on the market. For
rubber, cotton cord, and skilled labor, Montgomery
Ward & Co. pays current market prices and rates
the same as other well-managed tire factories pay.
In addition... for sturdy design and fine appear
ance RIVERSIDE Tires rival any tires built, regard
less of brand or price!
As for service— RIVERSIDES offer you no vague
substitutes in the form of phrases ... but definite,
specific, absolute mileage guarantees - 16,000 miles
for the First Quality RIVERSIDE — 30,000 miles for
the Super Service RIVERSIDE
Then, to clinch the reasons why RIVERSIDES are
now being used by millions of motorists through
out America—Ward's tremendous sales volume and
nationwide distribution bring these tires to you at
prices ranging from $2 to $15 less per tire than com
parable tires of any other make on the market.
' Since there are no secrets about tire building
why should there be any in tire SELLING? In the
sale of RIVERSIDES there arc none... because none
are needed! You can PAY more in price, yes, but
you can’t BUY more ... in quality, service or ap
pearance!
Knowing these facts — is there any reason in the
world why your next tires should not be RIVER
SIDES?...
Step into our store today, and see these good-look
ing, high-quality, guaranteed-performance tires for
yourself. Study their construction; see how they’re
built. Then try to find their equals at Ward's excep
tionally low prices... try to match their GUARAN
TEES in any other tire at ANY PRICE. Those are
the facts on which to buy quality tires at a big saving!
And remember—we have all sizes to fit all cars,
and we provide free mounting service on every
tire purchased.
