Yorkvllle Fnqulrer. "Charlie" Chaplin at $1,000 a Day. " *iTour or tWe of the producing com panies In the moving picture Industry have been bidding against each other recently for the service of "Charlie" Chaplin. They got as high as $1,000 a day. They are likely to go higher before the star performer signs a con tract. It is understood that this price is to be for at least one year ? 0 days a week. That would bring $.'{13,000 a year to the actor. There probably never was another player who com manded one-half or one-third of that sum. The vogue of Chaplin is beyond any thing the spoken or the silent drama ever knew before. He undoubtedly has talent but in many of his acts he Is vulgar. It does not speak well for the public at large when a person irlven to clownish and suggestive con duct commands such a remarkable following. The young scream with delight' when he (loos things which If committed in real life would bring physical punishment <>r arrest to the offender, Girls blush but do not take offense when he is shown in a picture lifting a girl's skirt with his queer ??Him. People roar when he trips sopte* one. smashes crockery or furniture, or causes trouble. What an Incentive It Is for a man seeking a career to see such a per son as "Charlie" Chaplin commanding more for being a clown one day than tnany earnest men can earn by a year of honest, worthy effort. Surely, as Hamlet said. "The time is out of joint." ? Commerce and Fi nance.

Tills may he done by building a -mall "<?11 or creep near their bedding place and putting a small amount. of m"k in a shallow vessel (something that can't he overturned.) They will soon learn to eat. Increase the feed as they advance in age. but don't feed more than they will clean up. Keep the vessel clenn by occasional scalding and sunning. The tirst four months of a pig's life determines largely his after suc cess. Never let him lose his "pig fat" during this time. Prepare now for ample grazing, by sowing rape or rape and grain mixed. This can he grazed by the pigs within six to eight weeks after sown. Allow them to run on any green crops, es peclally clover or vetch, as soon as they will graze, ? usually by the time they are four to five weeks old. Keep a succession of field grazing croji? maturing throughout the sum mer and fall to supplement their daily ration of grain and to enable them to produce a product at a profit. Hogs fed on grain alone without grazing crops, will give little or no prof It.
