Although rather late in the season we
wish to. bring the fact to the notice OF
the farmer that if he expects to cope
successfully With the wheat raisers OF
Dakota and Minnesots it IL absolutely
necessary that no should raise hard
wheat, And until he does wheat will
bring a low price, ond Montana bakers
will continue to use Dakota -four. 1t has
been clearly demonstrated that hard
wheat raised in Gallstin valley produces

brands of Minneapolis. True, perhaps,

A Successful Now Play.

Mr. John Harrisons new emotional play,
"Dagmar," which was produced for the
first time at the Temple Theatre in Phila-
delphia by Miss Louise Balfe on Monday
evening last, is said to be well constructed
throughout, needing but little modification
to make It very effective and the support of
II much stronger company than Miss Balfe's
to do it full justice. The piece was at first
somewhat harshly judged, but it appears
not so much for its own Inherent defects us
for the defects in its presentation; but even
under these disadvantages it has had an ex-
cellcnt run through the week. The best
critics and most intelligent theatre-goers Of
Philadelphia pronounce it decided success,
and all the friends OF its Washington
