This is one of the plans under consideration in a tentative way by the Constitution Mining & Milling Company, of which Judge George'Tur ner is president and other Spokane men are large owners. "Such a plant to handle 100 tons a day will cost $425,000, as nearly as we can estimate it," said Judge Tur ner today. "We are not planning to build it immediately, for we have no the morey nor any considerable part of it, but it is something we are con sidering. If our mine produces the profit we believe it will we may have the money to put into such a plant or perhaps other capital may be se cured for the purpose soon."

Mary Pickford no more than got the taste of spaghetti out of her mouth and ceased to respond unconsciously when anyone in the studio said "Pep pina," than she became a factory hand sewing shirts but not for goldier3. Having finished the shirts, the little star is now learning to navigate wood en Dutch shoes, as she Is to play a maiden of the Netherlands in her next production. Miss Pickford finds the shoes much easier to manage than "Madame But terfly's" sandals, but declares that they weigh a ton each. "No wonder the Dutch girls never grow very tall," re marked Miss Pickford after she had been clattering around the-Famous Players' .studio in the newly acquired regalia. "These canal boats would keep anybody close to the ground. The more I flounder around in these things, the more thoroughly convinced I be come that the pictures which show the Dutch girls skating on the canals in Winter time are 'faked.' How could anybody skate in them? But they are great for sliding on the wood floor," he laughed as she took a long run ning start and gave a successful demonstration. "Well. I've gone barefoot, and I've worn every known style of shoes in Paramount pictures moccasins, cap sandals, high heels, low heels, men's boots, brogans, and now here I am in wooden shoes. There doesn't seem to be anything left but snowshoes and gklis, but I suppose that they will have their turn in time. I don't believe there Is any style of costumes or footgear that escapes the eye of the scenario writer and the director." Portland Girls in Contest. According to advices from Photo play Magazine, six Portland girls are entered in the "Beauty and Brains" contest inaugurated by that publica tion and the World Film Corporation, which closed February 29. A committee of Judges, headed by Lillian Kusseil, will choose eleven glrl3 from the con testants, beauty and brains being the deciding factors in selection, the lucky ones to be given tryouts at the World studios at Fort Lee, New Jersey.

(What promises to end the "cut-back" in film productions is the experiment by Maurice Tourneur with a scene in The Hand of Peril,' in wnicn. nine rooms of a house are shown, with ac tion occurring in each room simul taneously. The house is constructed with three rooms and a hallway on each floor, each -room connecting and leading by doors from the main en trance on the lower floor to the last room on the upper floor, and. the action of the piece shows the flight of char acters from room to room and the action occurring In one room that would have to be "flashed back," were the nine rooms not shown. The ex periment is quite novel and attractive and fits in admirably with the story, but if it will prove of general worth cannot be told as yet. Tourneur. who created "Trilby," "Alias Jimmy Valen tine and 'rrhe Pawn or rate, is also responsible for many innovations In camera work and lighting effects. Screen Gossip.

As a rule factory girls do not Tide to work in limousines, but Mary Pickford is an exception to all rules. She ar rives for work every morning in her car and proceeds to bend over her task in the shirt factory. But the factory is in the Famous Players' studio, and Miss Pickford is not an eccentric young person who insists upon punching a time clock despite her success she is playing a young factory worker In a forthcoming Paramount picture. "Pounding the keys may grow tire some, but 'pounding the pavements' In search of work will prove equally tire some if you come to New York without motion-picture experience." Such was the reply of Dorothy Bernard, photo play star, to a Vermont stenographer with motion-picture aspirations. Miss Bernard is seen in the William Fox production of Hall Caine's novel, "The Bondman." The Vltagraph Company, which sued Metro for enticing from the yitagraph fold Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, was unsuccessful in its suit. The Drew comedies are to be regular features of the Metro programme, the first Port land release date being March 26. "The Whirl of Life," the six-reel fea ture in which Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle will appear at the Heilig The ater, commencing next Sunday, was written about the actual careers of the couple "that has set the world dance mad." Castle is the author of the story. Mae Murray, the Lasky-Paramount star who was left alone all night on a rock while George Melford and his company were filming the production of "To Have and to Hold," has a new name around the studio. In commem oration of her famous experience she is now known as Mae Rooned. Harry Hllliard, in "The Strength of the Weak." with Mary Fuller, Is a new William Fox star. Mabel Normand.

Lewis County Declared Ideal Dairy Country, but Residents Are Cen sured "for Buying Alfalfa In stead or Tsing Ensilage. BY ADDISON BENNETT. CENTRALIA, Wash., March 21. (Special.) The O.-W. R. & N. agricul tural compaign party was entertained by the Centralia Commercial Club at its spacious rooms last night and, in spite of the rain storm which had con tinued throughout the day, about 50 farmers and nearly as many business men belonging to the club were present. Judge A. M. Buxton, president of the club, called the meeting to order and then introduced A. C. Greene, Joint agent in this city for the three trunk lines, as chairman of the evening. Mr. Greene made a few remarks as to the nature of the campaign being con ducted by the officials of the O.-W. B & N., and then introduced "Farmer" Smith as the speaker of the evening. Mr. Smith was at his best, which is saying a good deal, for all of his ad dresses thus far on the trip have been exceptionally good and doubtless have left a good impression. Last night his remarks were largely directed towards bringing about a bet ter understanding between the farm ers and the business men of the city, He went on at length to tell many ways in which the merchants could better their business, and at the same time assist the farmers simply b fretting into closer touch. He pointed out the fact that the dependence of the farm er upon the merchant was no greater than the dependence of the merchant upon the farmer that both must prosper or retrograde together. County Resources Lauded. He then dwelt largely upon the fact that Lewis County is almost an ideal county for the dairy business, being climatically and in all other ways par ticularly adapted to the profitable keeping of the dairy cow, especially as to Its advantages for producing an abundance of Winter feed at a small cost. Then he called attention to the fact that a good many thousands of dollars' worth of alfalfa had been shipped In recently, and was still arriv ing uaily from the Yakima Valley, at a cost or 325 a ton. , During these remarks there was being passed around a small box of corn ensilage put up by John Nelson, on Ford's Prairie, about three miles from here. Mr. Smith said it was as good ensilage as hehad ever seen and that Mr. Nelson had put up 23 tons from the corn grown on an acre and a half. These 23 tons had a feeding value equal to about nine tons of al falfa. There Is no doubt but that the speech of Mr. Smith will redound In great good. I never heard a speech that was received better. The auditors seemed to be taken Into the confidence of the speaker and to each the message was a personal one. He closed after talking over 90 minutes, and then the audience clamored for him to resume.. Pupils Hear Address. This morning at 9 o'clock Mr. Smith talked to the boys and girls of the high school at this place, there being al most 400 present. The City Superin tendent, Professor J. M. . Layhue, re ceived the party in his spacious offices at the high school building, after which we were turned over to the principal. Professor C. W, Wright, who intro duced William Carruthers, district freight and passenger agent of the O.-W. R. & N., who told of the objects and scope of the campaign being waged, after which Mr. Smith was In troduced. For more than half an hour he held the closest attention, and dur ing the time he had them either laugh ing or applauding. When his time was up he stopped, but the audience made such a furore that the principal asked him to continue a. few minutes longer, which he did, much to the delight of the pupils. A sort of side issue of the campaign is being conducted by Lou S. Smith, assistant agriculturist, who gives in structions in the use of the Babcock tester. He has been kept pretty busy here ever since the party arrived, mak ing his headquarters at the creamery here. William McMurray, general passen ger agent, ran down to Portland for a day or so, but returned last night and is on the Job again. The meeting to night was at the rooms of the Chehalis Chamber of Commerce. Tomorrow, at 1:30, the farmers and business men of Napavine will be addressed at the Odd fellows' Hall, and at 8 P. M. a meeting will be held in the Farmers' Grange Hall at Boistfort. '1 $425,000 PLANT IN VIEW Mill fop Treatment of Zlno Or Proposed for Spokane. SPOKANE, Wash., March 21. (Spe cial.)
