Los Angeles Theatsr-Not since the
days when the late Joseph X. (Fritz)
Emmett was in the height of his popular
ity, has there been Q delineator Of Ger
mama m erican character SO successful
and artistic as Joseph Cawthorn. His
unctnous bumor. keen insight into satire,
tainer and an uncomfortable desire 70
create laughter and make other people
merry, soon made MIR. Cawthorn o prime
favorite wherever he appeared. The
young CO mi dian had not been long in
his new field of work before he attrac ted
the attention OF Joho ". Dunno, whose
long theatrical experience told him that
the young man possessed talent as q com
edian that conld not be developed In th G
character OF plays IN which he was then
appearing. An interview resulted in Mir.
Cawtnorn's engagements as principal
comedian with the Patti Rosa company,
and his work more than endorsed Mr..
Dupne's exprctations. This season Mr..
Cawthorn is making tour OF the United
States under the direction of Mr.. Dunno.
who has equipped MIN with q new play
and an exceptionally strong company.
The play was written expressly for Mr..
Cawthorp bv John A. Stevens and is
entitled Fool for Luck, and is a very
bright and sparkling comedy, treating q
subject new to the stage in an original
and exceedingly humorous manner. The
scene Of the play IS laid in an act RS
boarding honse in New York CITY. and
the principal character, in which MIR.
Cawthorn sppears,is that Of Sch itz Gey.

been suffered at her mothers death, and
now came the no less terrifying experl-

and that was msagre-was her voice, a
sweet. tehder-toned voice. but like Its
owner, small. thin and uncertain. Her
poor mother had formed the notion that
Lucette would become great diva. and
the girl herself had always vague idea
that in the future when she was alone in
the world without the slender annuity
that would end with her mothers life,
she might become rich and noted
from singing.

Narrowing wheat in spring is one Of
those farm operations that may result

time to do it is after the ground get

Live stock Notes,

Breed moro size and more Quality in.
TO the carriage and coach horse.
Mix your animals rations scientifical-
ly and weigh them carefully. Nothing
is more important in mixing foods for
live stock than to mix them by weight.
Timothy hay is poor stuff for COW
feed. Glover hay is the thing.
When yon buy new hogs, sheep or
cattle, turn them into a pen or yard by
themselves until you ascertain whether
thay have not some infectious disease.
This precautiOn is especially necessary
now when European governments pre-
tend that We have swine plague and
pleuropneumonia among our live stock.
After you have shown animals at
fairs quarantine them to themselves
awhile after bringing them homo. 1t is
easy to catch contagious diseases among
your live stock at fairs.
In some counties in Iowa half the
wheat crop will this year be fed to
stock. In the northwestern states the
whir of the ~ wheat crusher is heard
in the land.
Where your ewes are insufficiently
sheltered from cold, breed them so that
they will lamb in April Or May.
Keep the breeding ewes in good con-
dition. Many ewes are lost by having
them start i'll to winter in poor condi-
ton. Such ewes, when they themselves
do not die, produce dead or weakly
lambs.

The i>attir Corus,

Tho red and white kaffir c0rns seem
to approach very nearly to tho require
ments of tho arid land farmer for q grain
and forage crop for stock. They require
a somewhat longer season to mature the
grain than do the best varieties of
Dhoura, but when it is produced there
is more Of it, it is better feed, does not
waste so easily in handling, and there
is always a fine yield of the best of fod-
der to supplement- the grain Or make up
in part for the lack of it.
OF the two kinds the red Katfir ID su-
perior to the white. 1t makes it's grain
in about two weeks less time, produces
more largely, and the heads all como
clean out of the sheath. The heads of
the white katfir are apt to have a small
proportion Of imperfect moldy grains at
the base, owing to the head not having
pushed clear out of the sheath. The red
kaffir corn is pronounced by those who
have grown and fed it for a series Of
years equal in all respects pound for
pound to Indian corn. 1t produces tronl
80 to so bushels per acre, yielding some
CROP ever under the most slovenly neg
lect and responding readily to generous
cultivation and irrigation. Acorrespond-
ent in Irrigation Age says present III
dicatioDs are that it is the feeding grain
crop par excellence for the semiarid
lands.

Row Many Colonies of Bees Shall We

Row Many Colonies OF Bees Shall We
Keep In Our Apiaries?
There Gems to be a growing tenden-
cy of late to multiply our Sumber OF
colonies rather than tOato how good re-
suits can be obtained from a few. The
question arises, Can or cannot bees be
handled so that so colonies will produce
as good results, with less labor, than is
got from 200 worked in the way Of many
apiaries? Mr.. G.. NJ. Doolittlo, Is we'll
known authority on all matters pertain
ing to tho honeyhoo, believes thoy can
and Thinks that the day is coming when
one colony Will produce as good results
AS two arc now doing, if they do not
equal four. Ho thus expresses himself
i'll the columns of Tho American Bee
journal: II often find that 200 colonies
give hut little ii any better results than
do 80, while | know that more work is
required to care for 200 during q year
than is required for 30. TO this work
w0 hav0 to add tho extra expense Of
hives, sections, etc, together with the
large amonnt Of honey it takes to feed
those extra 1870 colonies. This last, in
my opinion, is wherein lies the main
trouble i'll making a large number pro
duco as many pounds per colony as do u
few.
From careful experiments and OBJ
servations / am led to believe that it
takes at least go pounds of honey to car
TT n colony of bees through the year;
hence il wo only get 80 pounds from q
colony, an average yield that somo bee
keepers tell me they are satisfied With,
we get only U;le-third Of the honey our
bees gather, 10 pay US back for all our
labor and capital invested, and also only
one-third Of the product of our field.
This product of the field cannot no over
looked. as l have reason to believe FROM
past experience.
Mr.. bOolittle urges that we make n
few bocs do for us what the market gar
denors Of tho largo cities make q small
piece Of land DO fer thonl--lamoly, So
cure as much profit from an aero Of land
rs some Of our country people do from
their tens of acres. He finds by Il care
full study of our bee papers that it Is 10
unusual thing TO see reports where 80
colonies Of bees have produced 1000,
6, 900, 1000 and evGn 8, 600 pounds Of
honey, while he has yet to sec a report
quad1upling such whore four times the
number Of colonies wcro kept. He has
himself secured an average Of l6G
pounds Of comb honey from 81 colonies
OF bees, spring count, a. the average re.
suit of @ single season.

Keep your harness soft and clean, par
ticularly the inside of tho collar and
saddle, as the perspiration, if allowed
to dry III, Will cause irritation and y.ro-
duce gals.
The collar should fit closely, with suf-
ficient space at the bottom to admit your
hand. A collar too small obStructs the

cramp and draw tho shoulders into an
unnatural position, thus obstructing the
circulation.
Never allow your horse to stand Oh
hot, f%ermenting manure, as this will
soften the hoofs and bring on diseases of
the feet, nor permit the old litter to lie
under the manager, as tine gases will
faint his food and i~rritate his lungs as
we'll as his eyes.
Do not keep the hay over the stable,
as the gases from the manure and the
breath of the animal will make it un-
wholesome.
Kindness will do more than brutality.
Therefore do not use harsh language to

CAPITAL AND LABOR,

At the date it was delivered The TRIB-
y publised the address of Rev. T.. A.
WATSON of this city to the Trades and
Labor council on THE Crisis Of Union
ism The address has reached New
York City and was made the subject of
a lengthy editorial in the New York
Tribune of last Sunday. The article
says:
THE address itself was remarkable in
its fearless apportionment Of praise and
blame to both parties in the labor con
troversy, d circumstance that sharply
dltferentiates it from so many ministerial
utterances on the subject. But quite as
remarkable was the fact that the work
ingmen heard it with many marks of ap-
proval, gave the speaker a vote of thanks
and .ordered it to be printed for cir
culation. 1t is a most hopeful sign
when a great body of labor rep.
reeentatives are. thus willing to ad-
init that the wrong is not all on the
side of the capitalist and the right not
all On the side Of the w~orkingman. DR..

WAR >nSG CONCERT.


Friday mornings THDvNh con
tanned a notice Of the war song concert
to be given by the G, \. Il, of Great
Falls in April. The Associated Charities
of Minneapolis gave a similar concert
the first Of this week and the |.Journa. Of
that city contains the following edltor,a.
comment:
NO more deliGhted audience ever
assembled in Minneapolis than that
which WAS worked up TO a high pitch of
enthusiasm by the program presented at
the Metropolitan theater last night.
From beginning to end the performers
played upon the strings Of memory.
The emotions which were produced
carried back the greater part of the
audience TO a time when such scenes
were realities and recollection was busy
with personal experiences and tender
memories which have not been so deeply
stirred for more than "A quarter of a
century.
1T WAS d remarkable night and one
which thousands who were not privil-
edged to experience it would be de-
lighted to enjoy. Certainly the man
agement will give them the opportunity.
The suggestion, too, that the school
children should hear these songs and
see these pictures and hear these stories
of the war time is a good one. 1t will
present to them a more vivid idea and

sacrifices and devotion of their fathers
and their mothers and teach a more i'm
pressive lesson Of patriotism than can be
obtained in any other way.
And all this is without regard to the
charitable feature. The great object for
which the entertainment was given has
of course been largely benefited, but if
there we're no such object and if not a
dollar of benefit were to be conferred
upon the poor. the value of such an en-
tertalnment to the community would
justify all the effort that has been ex-
pended upon this one. From the stand
point OF the purpose of the entertain
ment 1t is gratifying to be able to say to-
day that the two succeeding entertain

Tho farm papers all coincide that, a.
a rule, farmers attempt to cultivate toe
much land. 1t is a fact, and II to be
deplored, that almost every one spreads
his efforts oven too much territory. The
boast is how many acres of crops one
has grown and not how much per acre.
A neighbor took pride in saying that he
had put i'll 70 acres Of spring crops, but
another who had only 25 acres of land
made more net money from it than the
former did from his whole farm of 100
acres. Now. which was the wiser and
better farmer; A long time ago some
one printed a pamphlet with this title:
Ten Acres Enough Large farmers

respondent Of The Farm and Firesidc
names and locates u man who supports
himself, wife and six children from the
products of his farm of two acres and
lays up money besides. He has neither
greenhouse nor nearby city markets TO
facilitate his operations. He resides III
a country place where land is cheap
and transports his goods to a village
market a considerable distance away.
but he seldom returns without bringing
a load Of manur that costs him moth
ing. The possibility of the production
