SOME GREAT CORN
Week of Warm Weather Without
Frost Will Give Nebraska Big
gest Corn Crop.
DANGER IS PASSING FAST
j Katlroad officials who have kept
in touch with nprlcultural conditions
iin Nebraska are exceedingly optlmls
1 tic over the condition of the corn
'crop of this year und have coru
J nenced to predict one of the bumper
jxarlety, regardless of weather, unless
: there should be freezing weather this
' v.eek.
Charles J. Lane, general freight agent
or the t'nion Pacific, asserts:
1 "South of the Platte river the corn
crop of Nebraska Is made and it could
be but plklttly Injured by anything es-
ept a hard freeze. North of the river. It
Is maturing rapidly and another week
. will put It beyond the possibility of dam
age by frost."
Fiank Walters, general manager of the
Northwestern, s.iya of the crop:
j "Last week worked wonders in pushing
. the Nebraska corn alon to maturity.
Another wetk and It will be out of the
way of first, with the exception of some
lat plantings that would not mature, no
matter what the weather m'ght he."
I P"ii-,rr In (inlnt lty.
! The Burlington s crop report for last
I Week, in discussing the corn, says:
I "The week was quite favorable for
maturing corn, with several days of hliih
tern: erature. The situation is better to
( the extent that more corn is beyond d-tri-1
eor from f:ost. Two weeks more without
! freezing weather would bring about all
j the corn to maturity, at least all that
; we can 1 opo to secure.
' In comparing the rendition of corn Uv-.t
week with the previous week, on a ten
year average and on a percentage 'basis,
with the average placed Ht I'M per cent,
the following conclusions are reached:
Last Previous
PivlHlons. week. week.

While corn over the Omiiha division la
asserted to be In good condition, the fall
ins off In condition is due to the fact
that there was rain during several days
during the week, preventing the cereal
1 from ripening.
As to wheat, the Purlington's report
states that where threshing has been
done, the yield has been Fatlsfactory; but
due to too much rain the quality haa been
below the average standard of past years.
It is estimated that taking the state aa
a whole, about X per cent of the winter
wheat acreage has been sowed and about
50 per cent of the plowing finished.

Pretty Hourly ovt'ry thiy' somobody unya
"lint how in tlio worhl did you do it Ml bo quickly?"
And tho jiiisucr is "We didn't "
As n nmtltf f fact, Trinnlo Film lias been really years
in the making.
r.ut like many grojit enterprises which have been long ia
preparation nothing was said of it until it tiw done.
To do first rnd talk law was the idea.
For a ling, long time Griffith and Tnee and Sennett havo
been making moving pictmvs that were so mueh ahead of or
dinary ones that inhibitors -almost fought to eet them.
Hut like all ambitious men - especially artiste they were
fill the time fretting because the" wanted to make them better
still and were held down by the money limitations of low
priced theatres.
Kven m thy were porl'ecting great organizations which
got better every day.
Among them they hail got together about fifty of th
most expert photographers in the world, and with each of
these trying to nnke clearer, more beautiful pictures than the
jest, you can imagine the perfection of tho Ftudios!
It was natural enough (hat direct nrs who were ambitious
gathered about Griffith, luce and Ronnett especially when
, they saw what photography they were producing.
All thin time the acting was getting better. Really wonder
ful artists wero developing
Mae Marsh, Ralph Lewis,
Soena Owen, Robert Ilcrron,
Wallace Reid, William S. Hart,
Enid Markey, Fred Mace,
Bessie Barri. sonic, Ford Sterling,
Mabel Nonn:ind, Roscoe Arhnckel,
Lillian and Dorothy flish.
Everybody chafed under the holding back of Price.
Then flriffhh broke all bounds jumped all barriers got
Kome of his friends to help rvith money and on his own hook
produced "The Hirih of a Nation."
Everybody said it wan wonderful nnd everybody said it
wouldn't payl
v Then it was shown in New York; and the whole town clam
ored for seats at $'2.00 each.
Don't you see how simple the rest wast
Tlie men behind Griffith ami Ince and Sennett took off tha
financial ,4lid" and tho fur began to fly with a vengeance.
Each of these great directors had up his sleeve wonderful
things he'd been wniting to do for yearsi
Here a certain stage star wns the needed last touch; there
& tremendous mob scene; still agnin some amazing mechanical
"effect" that would cost a fortune.
Directors camera men actors and actresses outdid them
eelves! Stage Stars that had always shied at moving pictures lis
tened and came!
Then the news trickled nut; wise exhibitors, for they had
found that the one best show hi town always succeeded no
matter what rent had been paid for film began telegraphing
for "reservations" and that the rest fought for what was left.
The star executive of t'ne big film distributing companies
lot it be kno wn that, their services might be had.
And all this tiino no company had been fonned nothing
had been arrived at beyound a rough, general understanding
among tho men who had put, up the money.
Less than two months ago tho thing finally took ehape, and
'Triangle Film" became a Corporation.
It has no liabilities. " ' ' '
Its assets were probably the most valuablo pieces pf paper
ever executed in the film business for they were contracts for
the work of these throe supervising producers for years to come!
Its chief stockholders besides these men whose future ia
pledged ii, itwere Adam nnd Charles Kcssel, Charles Bau
jnan and IL E Aitkon, every one of whom had got rich hi tho
film business.
Its executives, the pick of the industry.
Its good -will, the promise of business from exhibitors- of
the very highest type the country over!
So you see, it isn't so very wonderful after all that, newly
eorjKirate as it is, Triangle Film is already a fine, strong,
Mnooth-runuuig machine doing business as easily and effi
ciently as ihough its parts had been working together for
years.
Nor that the Triangle Plpys which first appear at ths
TCniokcrboekcr Tle atre, New V'ork, next Thursday will havo
tho perfection that comes only with years of preparation and
months of iHilishiug.
And is isn't very strange either that, just a a good many
lople in New York set aside or.o or two evenings a week as
"opera nights," thousands of thein the country over are already
arranging for "Triangle Nights" this winter.
Have you set aside your Triangle Nights!
