In a long line of recent produc tions, capped by "1 Met Him in Paris," Miss Colbert has become the taiost successful example of the ur bane and sophisticated young lady in films, while Mr. Cooper comes to . "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" fresh from a number of soldier-of-fortune roles, including "The General Died at Dawn," "Lives of a Bengal Lancer" i and "The Plainsman." His gay, friv olous role in this picture is nearer that of "Mr. Deeds" than any other. I The story, a new version of the famous play by Alfred Savoir, con-1 ceras" a young American multi-mil-1 vuonair wno, alter marrying anu ui-( vorcing seven wives, marries an, wnrtifh who succeeds in taminir and bringing him lova for the first time. Hiss Colbert, in the role of a penni less French aristocrat who marries him for his money, accomplishes the miracle by letting him understand jthot she is one woman he cannot rwrap around his finger. Her weap ons .of coolness, indifference and atuhbornness work wonders, and, ai der nearly losing him by overplaying her hand, she brings sanity and love to Gary's life at last. i "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" con tinues the tradition of sophisticated comedy laid against a continental background, which has been so strong during the past year, outstanding examples being "Champagne Waltz" and "I Met Him in Paris." The lat ter was a masterpiece of Director Ernst Lubitsch, who brings the new Colbert- Cooper production to the screen. Some of Europe's most gla- Food Specialist MRS.

Cooperative Selling , Helps Hog: Producers Nnrt.h Carolina farmers have sold $1,500,000 worth of hogs! through their local cooperative mar keting associations since January 1 1937, said H. W. Taylor, of - State College; The 85,000 hogs sold in this way were shipped direct to the packers, who pay prevailing market prices for the high quality pork obtained from swet of the hogs. , Although packers make deductions for soft and oily pork, Taylor added, growers have lost comparatively lit tle because most of the hogs were in good condition. kTJmi cooperative marketing pro gram sponsored by thel State College extension service is designed not only to help growers sell their , hogs to ad vantage, but also to encourage them to produce high quality hogs. At the first of the year 1937, two cooperative hog markets were func tioning in Eastern Carolina. Growers were so pleased with the results that they have organized IS more asso ciations, since that time, ! ' ' , The extension swine specialist and county farm agents assist growers in organizing and operating an associa tion, but the farmers themselves con-' trol its policies, Taylor stated.

Clark Gable, Myrna Loy, Spencer Tracy and Lionel Barrymore head the cast of the first air picture produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in more than two years. Director Victor Fleming has incor porated some of the most striking flying scenes yet seen in an aviation picture. The nature of the subject, dealing as it does with men who daily dare their lives in a-duel with death, insures a world of thrills. They're there. The story is that of a test pilot, played by Gable. Without varying from factual experience, it tells ex actly how one of these daredevils lives, not sparing the man, but withal showing that he is human. The ro mance is a three-cornered affair be tween Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and the "woman in the sky," who is the pilot's first love. Spencer Tracy sac rifices his life to prove to Gable that his wife is far more important than the calling which has 'been forever clutching at the narrow thread of his life. ' al quality, and arrangements have been made with the U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry to provide federal graders to determine whether the pork is hard, soft, or oily. Swine cannot be graded for soft or oily pork until slaughtered and cool ed. Therefore, this work must be done at the packing houses, where the federal graders will be placed as soon as men have been trained to grade accurately. To Hold Older Youth Conference At State The second annual Older Youth Conference at State College will be held June 7-11, L. R. Harrill, 4 -H club leader, has announced. The conference will be for rural boys and girls above 4-H club age who are not in college and who are too young to be served adequately by adult organizations. This is a critical period in the lives of young people, Harrill said, and a program has been arranged to give inspiration and guidance at. a time when it is especially needed. Gov. Clyde R. Hoey leads the list of prominent speakers who are to appear on the program. Others will be: Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, of the State Board of Health; Dr. P. D. Miller, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Raleigh; Henry. M. John son, of the Farm Credit Administra tion; and Dean I. O. Schaub, Dr. K. C. Garrison, and Ruth Current, of State College. Brief courses in agricultural and nome-maicing subjects will be con ducted by members of the college faculty, extension service specialists and experiment station workers. Rooms will be provided in the col lege dormitories, and ; meals will be served in the eollesre cafeteria. A SK registration fee, will cover the cost of rooms, meals and Incidentals, The first Older Youth Conference was held at . Statef College last sum mer, with the attendance going over 100. Indications are that a larger number will be present this time, Harrill added. .- - , All older boys and girls on the farm who wish to attendmay secure additional information from county farm and Dome agents or by writing j k. narrui at state College, Kal eigh. , NONE SLIGHTED New Orleans.

Y. Floyd, AAA executive officer at State College. A grower's cotton marketing quo ta is all the cotton he can grow on his alloted acreage. If he plants more than hie allot ment, there will be a penalty of two two cents a pound on all cotton sold in excess of his quota. In addition, he will forfeit all pay ments that he would otherwise have been entitled to under the agricultu ral conservation program.' He will ' lose his cotton price adjustment pay ment on the 1937 crop, and jtbe loan he can get on his 1938 crop" will be limited to 60 per cent of the amount i he could have gotten if he had not exceeded his quota.

If tobacco is planted in excess of the allotment, deductions from the grower's agricultural . conservation payment will be made at the rate of 10 cents a pound on the average pro duction of the excess acreage. Tobacco sold in excess o' the poundage quota is subject to a pen alty of one-half the gross value of the leaf or three cents a pound, which ever is greater. If a grower keeps within his acre age allotment, but produces more than his poundage quota, he will still have to pay the penalty if he sells more- than his quota. For this reason, growers should J sell their best tobacco . berore their! marketings reach the limit of their quotas.
