Bringing together for the first[ .

stars?Katharine Hepburn and a
Herbert Marshall presents "A j..
Woman Rebels,", a moving drama s
of young romantic idealist in n
search of freedom and indepen- 0
dence as against the restricting ^
influences of the era into which c
she had been born opens Mon- c
day at the Carolina Theatre. j b
In contrast to the freedom en- t]
joyed by the modern young wo- c
man, the story presents a roman- a
tic and tragic tale of an intelli- >
gent young girl who dares to .
demand that she choose her own (
husband, that she be permitted
to emerge from home unchaper- ti
oned and that she go to work, a P
thing which no lady had hereto- t<
fore done. Fog-enshrouded Lon- n
don, rural English estates and b
the Italian Riviera furnish the tl
background for the resultant dra- Sl

It Is Capacity Of A Pond a
That Counts, And The
Matter Of Depth Is Of-1"
ten Overlooked
(
It's capacity of a pond that '
counts, and depth is an important
part of capacity that often
has been overlooked.
During the 5 months, May-September,
200 head of cattle will.
drink nearly an acre-foot of wat- [
er?325,850 gallons?at the rate
of about 10 gallons of water for
each animal daily. The Depart-:
ment of Agriculture has found
that in the Great Plains in this
same period four to five times
as much water may be evaporated
from a reservoir.
In constructing reservoirs or
ponds for livestock, a depth of
double a season's evaporation loss
is a safe rule, says the Soil Conservation
Service.
From April through September i
average evaporation from ponds !'
in the Great Plains runs from V
5 feet in Western Texas to a
little less than three feet in the
Dakotas and Montana, according
to 15 to 30 years of records
kept by the Division of Dry Land
Agriculture. In the dry summer
of 1934, evaporation losses reached
nearly 6 feet in southwestern
Kansas. Figures for the dro- i
ught summer of 1936 have not
been completed, but they will be
much above the average.
Evaporation losses in 1934
showed these increases over the
15-year average: 20 inches at
Hays, Kans.; 16 inches at North
Platte, Nebr.; 15 inches at both
Colby and Garden City, Kans.;
12 inches at Dickinson, N. Dak.;
14 inches at Lawton, Okla.; 13
inches at Dalhart, Tex.; 12 inches
at Tucumcari. N. Mex., and lesser
increases at other points in
the drought areas.
Evaporation losses may be reduced
by locating stock ponds
and reservoirs, if possible, soi
they will be protected from hot.'
drying winds by steep slopes or \
trees. But the greatest saving of;
water is made with a pond of
minimum area and maximum
depth. Record of southwestern
reservoirs show those more than
12 feet deep go dry less frequently
than those shallower.
