PAGE TWO GOOD LIVESTOCK CARE NEEDED IN WINTER Winter calls for good care of live stock, says County Farm Agent Paul B. Ezell, making these suggestions for December: Animal Husbandry Graze hogs on winter forage- barley, oats or rye. See that the beef breeding herd has enough cheap roughage and cottonseed nteal to prevent loss of weight. Give sheep one-half pound of grain and all the hay they will eat. See that all classes of livestock have shelter and bedding and provide extra bedding during cold snaps. Repair fences during spare time. Kill hogs for home use. Protect dairy cattle from rams. Feed good quality roughage, prefer ably silage and legume hay, to the limit of milking cow’s appetite. Feed grain in proportion to milk produc ed by each cow. Give dairy cattle access to pure fresh drinking water. Observe calves for lice and internal parasites. Produce quality products. Keep rest bams well bedded for a big supply of manure. Poultry Make the poultry house free from drafts. Examine the laying flock for lice and mites as an infestation of either will lower egg production. Feed grain liberally to keep layers in good flesh. Get brooding equip ment in order. SEABOARD RAILWAY REDUCES FARE FOR MEN IN ARMY.

JON HALL APPEARS IN SOUTH OF PAGO PAGO Jon Hall, star of the recent film “Kit Carson,” will again have a leading role in “South of Pago Pago”, which will show at the Opera House Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 9 and 10. The story is set in the 1880’s. Bucko Larson, played by Victor McLaglen, has heard that there is a fortune in rare pearls “South of Pago Pago”, and he makes a strange bargain with Ruby Taylor, a Singapore cafe girl, played by Frances Farmer, when they set sail to capture this booty. Larson’s plans prosper when Ke- hane, son of the island chief played by Jon Hall falls in love with Ruby and forgets his island fiancee, play ed by Olympe Bradna. Too much praise cannot be given to the cast of this picture. And many words of praise must te said for the pictorial brilliance and sweep of the background shots and the mag nificence of the production.
