tnder the old State bank system the propor-

national banks, and the losses in the same class

Where did the tree and corn crop comt

We can prore them. and will do So here
after in The Prairie Farmer.
How does the tree or corn get from the

made up or grows Z other trees and
crops have been burned or have rotted
or turned into flesh or manure which de-

such small particles that YOU neither set
them 60, nor see them after they are
gone. The air covering the earth con
tains millions. yes billions of tons of de

the invisible atoms are found in any one
place.
The leaves of trees. Of corn, OF grass
OF all plants, have vast number OF little
holes or mouths on their surface called
stomata. You cannot see them because
they are so small, often hundred thous-
and Of them on a single square inch As
the air passes over the leaves in its gen
tie or swift motions, these little mouths
pick out and suck in or absorb the myri-
ads of little food atoms that have come
from the destruction of other plants.
What next Why, the sap or water
circulating through the pores of the tree
stems, plant stems, up and down all the
while, pick up these food particles from
the leaves and carry them all through
the stems, the branches. the ear. the silk

these food atoms are left where wanted,

particles from previous growths are built

plants.
A VERY PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF

A Scholarly Actor.

One of the marked characteristics Of
the Shakspearian interpretations of Geo.
c. Min is their evident scholarship and
intellectually 1t is apparent to the
most casual observer that every phase in
the plays presented has been the subject
of profound consideration, and that all
the details Of acting and costumes have
been fully considered. Mr.. Min is ad-
mirably fitted to lead a Shakspearian re.
vlval in this country. His education has
been liberal and complete, and his en-
thusiasm for the Shakspearian drama is
second to that of no actor on the Ameri-
can STAGE It is not matter of surprise
that his performances have been accorded
the first rank in this regard. He not on
ly carefully considers his own roles, but
is scrupulously exact i'll the rehearsals of
his company. The lines are not spoken
in perfunctory manner, but each men,
Der of the company is compelled to ana
lyze and understand his part. Thus a
complete and harmonious whole is pre-
scented. The company is to appear in
this place Sept, 10Th and 3Oth and all who
have the opportunity to witness the i'm
presentations of this young and highly
successful actor should avail themselves
of the opportunity.

The Fair.

The Territorial Fair at Helena would
have been an immense success had it not
been for the unfavorable weather. The
array of fine horses has never been ex-
celled, and shows the interest taken by
breeders to procure the finest strains
that money can buy, in running, trotting
and draft stock. Old horsemen predict
that Montana will yet furnish some Of
the fastest stock in the world. The eli
mate, the nutritious grasses, pure air and
freedom from diseases, will develop a
superior strain, and indeed it looks like
it. In Floral hall the display was better
than ever before, and the works Of skill
and art were truly remarkable, and equal
il not superior to like exhibitions in the
east. The display in the agricultural de-
partment was not equal to former exhib-
itions, due no doubt to the inclement
weather, and not to lack Of production,
which has been bountiful.
