STAR OF “WOMANS FIGHT”
CAN FIGHT
Geraldine O’Brien, the Broad
way favorite who stars in “A Wo
man’s Fight,” the Pathe Gold
Rooster Play at the Grand Thea
tre on - Tuesday, -has stamina,
nerve and—a punch! The pic
ture proves it.
[ixcept in the prizefight films
that the law forbids nowadays,
there is nowhere on the screen
such an exhibition of fistic prow
ess as Miss O’Brien displays in a
certain scene in “A Woman’s
Fight.” Admirers who know
Miss O'Brien as a gentle stage fa
vorite, cannot have suspected that
she was so “handy with her mits.”
Beyond a doubt this usually pas
sive young woman went into
special training for the picture.
Miss O’Brien plays a factory
worker who decides to take the
part of another factory girl. The
lafter is brawny and a friend of
the boss. - That makes no differ
ence to Miss O’Brien, who won’t
have her little friend eternally
abused. She “land on the boss’s
friend. The friend launches a
counter offensive. Miss O’Brien
meets it. Right here you guess
that the young woman had been
in training.
" Herbert Blache, who produced
‘this Gold Rooster, stopped di
,rccting in the excitement—and
lfor fear that the police would
stop the bout and arrest the
' “manager.”
- Rumor even hath it that as the
fight waxed hot, bets were plac
‘ed on the outcome by studioites—
from a safe @aistance—who
thought the scrap was real.
$65 was collected in fines for
drunk and disorderly charges in
the Mayor’s court this morning,
hte heaviest docket since May 1.
The police department was kept
busy Saturday night, a real live
“blind tiger” having found its
w2y into the burg, his tracks
were noticeable but he couldn’t
be located.

HOGS, PEANUTS, VELVET
BEANS GROWN AS
MONEY CROPS
Albany, Ga., Sept. 9—By com
bining peanuts, hogs, velvet beans
and cattle with cotton, the farm
ers in Geneva county, Alabama,
are going to market farm prod
ucts equivalent to a fairly good
cotton crop this fall. This is a
feature statement of an interest
ing interview given a Herald re
porter yesterday afternoon by
Mr. R. E. Lovelace, of Hartford,
Ala., who was in the city today.
Mr. Lovelace is a prominent
farmer and merchant of Hart
ford, and a member of the board
of county commissioners of Ge
neva county. That section of
Alabama is now passing through
its second year of the boll weevil
and the experience of the farm
ers there will be of interest to the
farmers here, as this section will
have its second season of the boll
weevil next year. .
Mr. Lovelace said that through
his own observation and experi
ence and by talking to others he
was brought to the conclusion
‘that the small quantity of cotton,
with the hogs, peanuts and velvet
beans that would be marketed be
fore January 1, would bring Ge
neva county as much money as a
fairly good cotton crop.
Peanuts Do Very Well
~ The farmers in Geneva county
tried out peanuts last year and
had good success. This year they
went into the business on a larg
er scale and are now harvesting
their peanuts. Mr. Lovelace says
the average yield is 50 bushels to
the acre, where the peanuts are
well cared for and fertilized, The
oil mills are paying 75 cents a
bushel for the white Spanish, 60
cents a bushel for the red Span
ish and 350 cents a bushel for the
running peanut. The peanuts are
picked by men in that business
for 10 cents a bushel and the vines
are baled for 10 cents 2 bale. Mr.
Lovelace said the hay from an
}acre_ of peanuts would pay for the
cultivation and fertilizer, leaving
the price received for the peanuts
as clear profit. #e knew of one
‘man who had 65 acres and had
‘been offered $l,BOO for the crop in
)the field, but had refused. This
man estimates his yield at over
60 bushels to the acre.
~ Mr. Lovelace has a 120-acre
farm and has 100 hogs on this,
which he expects to fatten and
market for $l,OOO. He has ten
acres of cotton to the plow, but
expects only two bales to the
plow. One farmer, who planted
100 acres in cotton, will not get
more than 7 bales. Another had
80 acres and the weevil got all
except 800 pounds.
The farmers in that county:
were fighting the weevil hard,
said Mr. Lovelace, but when the
heavy rains came it whipped
them. They could not get into the
fields for thirty days and the wee
vils increasyd in such numbers
that-they could not be overcome.
Mr. Lovelace believes that suc
cess in farming under weevil con
ditions will come by the farmers
raising hogs, peanuts, corn, sug
ar cane, velvet beans and cattle.
Cattle raising, he considers, re
quires too great an outlay from
the start to prove a success with
the small farmers.
He says a crop of velvet beans
is worth 200 pounds of guayo to
the acre, in the effect it will have
on the next crop. Farmers in
Geneva county grow velvet beans
for the market, selling them for
$2O a ton in the hull, or $1 a bu
shel. There is a good demand.
- Will Grow More Wheat '
A big acreage of wheat is go
ing to be planted in that county
this year. A good acreage was
planted last year and such satis
factory results were obtained
that the farmers are going te|
plant 5 and 10 acres each this year '
where they had small patches last
year.
Summing it all up, Mr. Love
lace said:
“While the peanut industry
looks good, it is only an experi
ment so far. However, we know
that theré is money in hogs, as
our county marketed $150,000
worth last season. The farmers
can sell hogs for cash at any
time. ”.He said that the farmers
of that county were well satisfied
with hog raising, as they had re
ceived good prices, competition
being created between the Moul
trie packing house and a pacging
house ‘in Alabama.
Mr. Lovelace said it was hard!
for him to understand why ther
should be a syrup famine ia se,
tion that could grow sugdr cail
as easily as southgast Alabama
and Southwest Georgia. He be
lieves there is money growi
sugar cane tc make into syrup,
provided a good product is plac
ed on the market. :
ADVICE
I' must do as you do. Your way
I own
Is a very good way and still,
There are sometimes two straight
roads to turn,
One over, one under the hill.
You are treading the safe and
well worn way,
That the prudent choose each
time ;
And you think me reckless and
rash today,
Because I prefer to climb.
Your path is the right one and
SO 1S mine,
We are not like peas in a pod,
Compelled to live in a certain line,
Or else be scattered abroad.
"Twere a dull old world, methinks
my friend, : '
If we all went just one way ;
Yet our paths will meet no doubt
at the end,
Though they lead apart today.
You like the shade and I like the
sun,
You like an even pace,
I like to meet with the crowd and
run, ;
And then rest after the race.
I like danger and storm and strife,
You like a peaceful time:
I like the passion and surge of
life,
You like the gentle rhyme. i
You like the buttercups, . dewy
and sweet, g
And crocoses, framed in Snow ;
I like roses, born of the heat,
And the red carnation’s glow.
I must live my life, not yours, my
friend, } o
For so it was writcengdown,
We must follow our givén paths
to the end, 4 ®
But T trust we shall meet—in
town. B
