EDDIE POLO IS WORLD FAMOUS Eddie Polo, Universal serial star, who has sccnarized his own life in "King of the Circus," a chaptered drama he now is producing* has the distinction of having played before three of the crowned heads of Europe. Just three months before the Avar began, P<.lo was playing a wiudeA-ille engage ment the Winter Garden in Berlin. ; nd was commanded to appear before the Kaiser and give his trapeze performance. Polo was known as the "cla<sie>tM of .*\th'cte , graceful in every movement, and l-eking the bulging muscles of the European gymnasts. The former ruler of Germany admired at1 leiic perfection, and presented KddiV a gold cigarette case at the ei d of his exhibition. Eleven years ago, when Po'o was touring England with an Anieruvn circus, he was one of throe act> that appeared at Buckingham Palace to entertain the late King Edward and "his suite at the royal command. The prince of thrills now treasures a signet ring ,'is a memento of the occasion. 1\\1m nlcA o ni\rto rn/1 Ko f rii'O llw?

Til!", added much to his prestige in Uonie, and his enhancement in that lity was extended four weeks beyond his original booking, lie also has appet red before the ruler of Spain. During Eddie's trip to Engtand a ye*ir ago to film some scenes for his recent serial, "The Vanishing Dagger," King George was reminded that the popular gymnast who had entertained his father was then in London. Before a command appearance at the palace could l>o arranged, Polo left for France; so the next best thing was done. The I'niversal Exchange in London had on hand a number of films in which Eddie Polo appeared, and these were sent over and shown at the palace. It is said that the royal party gre.atly enjoyed the thrills provided by the Universal star. "King of the circus" is being shown every Friday at the Pastime Theatre here. o MOTHERS' CLI B MEETING Tho February meeting of the .Mothers' CI ill) will he held in the Annex on February Hi at -1 o'clock.

I The hoard adopted by-Viws and at-J t'MiiuHl to other cioti; 11 matters incident to forming the pcrnumont organization. The reports fro'm the Kentucky Burley Association reaching the Florence headquarters, are most gratifying and encouraging. It is reported that the Kentucky organization has just closed several large deals, one of which was to one of the the large companies for 20,000.000 pounds at very satisfactory prices. These tobaccos are being delivered at the warehouses of the association direct from the growers. James N. Kehoe of the executive committee is reported as saying, in an interview that "There seems to me little probability that we shall have to hold any considerable portion of the association crop for longer than a few weeks at the most." This is encouraging news 'to the Tri-State Association for it does away with the overhead expense of redrying and storing. o WANTED Good mail with mule and tools to farm the J. T. Proctor-Johnson-Burr.ey place in Bucks township, adjoining lands of R. J. Beverly and others. Has about thirteen acres cleared and in cultivation ? good tobacco land. Will rent this place to good man with team and supplies for one-third of the crops produced and will pay for one-third of the fertilizers used. Call on or write H. H. Woodward. o a c< LjAI H/IO NOT REGARDED The matter of expense must not have been studied very much in deciding to take the new highway from Fourth avenue, in a northwestward direction to the Quattlebaum farm, and from there down the old Georgetown sand road, instead of taking Third avenue and the new Georgetown road which leads out of the end of Third avenue, where a lvird road has been kept | up in the past and where the distance was a mile or more less for travel. The Fourth avenue route goes through branches and ravines almost the whole way. At more than one place fill-i have to be made and the l ight kind of e.'irth for this must be brought from a distance; while along the other way the clay and sand for making the right mixture are near at hand, the soil by the side of the road itself; and with only a short distance to raise with this so as to be above the highest point of freshet waters.

This applies to' all classe.. of live stock.

In reply to the question as to the! value of their example in including! others in the community to take up improved live stock most of these farmers and breeders said that they had been the means of starting .'it least two or three, .and one man who ill nau noon raising purehreds lor 1U years said ho had influenced ovcrv man in the neighborhood.?13. A. I. Editorial. ?r% FUNNY SCENES BY FAYSSOUX Had Fayssoux, the psychic marvel, lived in the time of the Puritans he would have been burned at the stake, beheaded or hanged as a sorcerer and magician. His feats in mind-reading are bewildering; the facility with which he hypnotizes his subjects and compels them to obey his beck and call is truly awe-inspiring. His control over a stage full of people, all strangers'to him, is simply wonderful. It is a common scene at one of the Fayssoux performances to behold a group of prominent citizens cutting the most fantistic capers imaginable. Mere we see a staid old resident standing at one end of the stage delivering an address on the folly of the anti-saloon movement, while a few feet away some one identified with the liquor interests is making a temperance speech; in another spot a quartet of men who never attempted to sing a note in all their lives are roaring a rollicking chorus, near by another party of citizens are seated in an imaginary basket-car taking an imaerinarv ride under an imaginary baloon. The comic effects are better imagined than described. Fayssoux will begin an engagement of three nights at the Pastime Theatre on Monday, February 20. o TALKS TRACTORS BY WIRELESS On the evening of J.muarv 2r>, when Mr. Ford decided to make the big reduction in the price of his Foidson tractor, it is said that ho gave the first news of this cut by wireless over his own radio station at Dearborn. While his talk was heard perhaps more distinctly in the Cleveland district. it was intended for all Ford dea'ers and every farmer in the United States. It is s.nid that his conversation was something like this: "It is certainly wonderful to sit her? in my office and'sav a few words of greeting to you Ford dealers of the Cleveland territory. The radio i.an outstanding tribute to man's inv n' ivn genius. Thev say there is nothing new under the sun, but we are constantly inventing new things every day bringing some big improvement over the previous day's method " manufacturing: operations nuvr* undergone some wonderful rovolutionary changes during tho past few \oars. Wo are all familiar with Iho Mr improvements in transportation methods, but the oldest industry ha I won tho nio-t backward in tho acceptance or adoption of the now and up-to-date methods of doing thing's, and that is tho farming industry. I>o ing a farmer I am vitally interested in all farm improvements, and with this in mind 1 have spent years of time and millions in money in the development of the Fordson tractor, which 1 really think is one of tho hig'gost possible helps to profitable farming:. "A a eon oral thine: tho farmers have bettered their financial condition during: the past eighteen months, but the production costs of farm products are still too close to selling: prices to allow fair margins of profit. What the farmer must do to put his business on a paying basis is to lower the cost of planting, cultivating and harvesting of his crops. This alone will increase his profits and with this thought in mind it has been our constant aim to lower the price of the Fordson so that every farmer in the land could afTord to own one. It is a pleasure, therefore, to announce through you Ford dealers that we have today decided that the tractor price should again be reduced, and in considering a reduction naturally mv thought has been to make it possible for the largest number of farmers to share in the benefits to be derived through the use of our tractor and ' consequently effective tomorrow, JanI uary 27, 1022, the new price of the > Fordson tractor will be $305, F. O. B I T)etroit. This is a cut of $230 ofl the present price and while in making this big reduction we have taken upor ourselves a gigantic task in the re duction of manufacturing costs, stil that task, in my opinion, is not largei fnum/t??'cj ni'Atilom 'r?f tftdnv tlUlll l/liv: lai IIIV/I n |/I WIVIM vwv,.,^ and I am glad to do my part in bring 1 ing about a period of increased pros s perity for the farmer.

C., FEB. 16, 1922 PLAN WORKING IN KENTUCKY Im Kentucky they have what-- is known as the Kentucky Hurley To hacco Growers' Association, formed some time ago for the co-operative marketing of that class of tobacco in that stale. Recently a wire was pent to the president of that association to find out how the association is working. A letter was received in reply which shows that the association i:doing well and will result in great good to the growers of tobacoc. The association will handle an esti mated amount of tobacco in the neighborhood of I.">0,000,000 pounds; . and this will be sold in winter order,' but at the same time they have prepare*' to finance and rcdry all of the croj >'f this should become necessary The letter continues: "We are making a substantial ad vance to each farmer on delivery of his tobacco, and tfiis advance in most cases has proven to be more than the farmer got for his entire crop last Will, ? i I IU I Hill ^ HIU tv* > vilt I <4 I mors over the entire district are not only satisfied, but are charmed with the way their association has started ofT.
