rationalities, principally England
Germany, Italy, France, Sweden and
the United States. The proportion of
American girls is small for the rea-
son that they do not make good
dancers. They have the grace, the
beauty and the ability to learn, but a
lack of early education in the art is
the great drawback Few American
girls take up ballet dancing until
they are eighteen or twenty years f
ago, and then it is too late according
to the high standard set by the Italian
and French masters. The bones have
become Sc and are incapable of the
supple action of the foreign dancers.
The finest dancers are turned out at
Milan, where the pupils of La Scala
are obliged to make their debut at the
ago OF sixteen and to finish their APP
premiership at the famous opera
house. The pupils arc recruited annu-
ally from The conservatoire, and most
of them begin TO dance at the age Of
eight or nine This system gives La
Scala perpetual supply of young and
graceful dancers, whereas the other
famous opera houses OF Europe are
disfgured by mixture Of the sex
agenarian with the budding cory
rhees.
In previous years the grand opera
here has always had its share OF
dancers who had been on the boards
for thirty or forty years. In making
up the So sc ballet the management
respectfully rejected the old ladies'
who had annually aired their aged
charms Def the gaze CT New York s
gilded set. In the present ballet
there Is not a woman over thirty, or
if she Is sne doesn't look it even in
street attire, and nest OF them are
nearer twenty. In selecting them par
ticular attention was paid to their
knowledge of music, as a truly arts
tic dancer must have more than
smattering of music to keep in perfect
rhythm with the orchestra,
More than average intelligence is
needed, for twenty-four operas will be
produced this season, and in each one
the steps of the dances are different
To memorfZe these steps so that the
twenty-four will appear like a piece Of
well-regulated machinery is no easy
task. and the dancers must all be
familiar with the music of the various
operas to keep in perfect accord
These girls each earn in the neighbor-

Gil of the Norwegian Lutheran synod

BY far the most important matter
before the council Is the one of select

stroyed by fire at Robbinsdale about a
year ago. Minneapolis, st. Paul, La

Twenty-Five years of age, is recognized
as the best male dancer in Europe.
He was born in Rome and began to
dance almost before ne could talk.
He is skilled musician, but regards
the ballet as of greater importance than
the $1,000 night singers. Last sea-
son he was the ballet master at the
Drury Lane theater, under the man
agement of Sir Augustus Harris. He
is a genius and wonderfully eccentric.
Before and after rehearsals he is
friendly with the dancers, but during

enemies and treats them accordingly.
The girls reciprocate the feeling, and
the consequence is that heavy clash
OF tongues is always to be heard.
Albertierl has succeeded in wiping
out one awful obstacle from his work
and that is jealousy among the
dancers. The girls are all on the same
footing, and not one is considered OF

The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1896-09-04

In planting muskmelons, the
prime requisite is rich, moist soil
not damp and soggy, but moist. No
other manure equals that from the
pig pen, for this purpose, as a trial
with fertilizers will show. Do not
elevate the hills; let them be level
with the rest of the ground that
there be not such a tendency to dry
out.
A good mulch is indispensable in
the strawberry patch; it checks
evaporation and saves it for the
plants. Freshly stirred soil, which
is so requisite in the corn and potato
field, is the poorest of mulching for
strawberries, and will give you a
disgustingly dirty lot in a rainy sea-
son.
Coal ashes make good mulching
material for gooseberries and cur
rants. Where gooseberries, especi-
ally, are exposed to the sun, they
should be protected by a mulch all
around them. Almost anything will
do for the purpose if put on heavily
enough. Other small fruits would
be likewise benefited.
Peach trees trained to take on a
low growth produce more fruit of
better quality, and they better re-
sist dry weather and disease. Such
trees shade the ground more thor
oughly around the trunk, and the
foliage protects the fruit on the low
er branches from the fierce sun.
Moreover, the fruit can be picked
more easily.
Horticulture, when followed in
diligently, gives better returns up
on the capital employed than almost
any other branch of agriculture; but
it is business for careful, thought
full, industrious mel, and for such
only. Guess work and half methods
will always bring disaster.
Manure should be hauled upon the
orchards in the fall or early winter,
so as to get the advantage of the
rains which fall. If hauled earlier
and plowed under it only makes the
subsOil dry, unless enough water
penetrates to the roots to rot the
manure. Only wet manure can help
fruit trees.
Select only the we'll known varie.
ties of roses, such as have been OBJ.
served when in bloom. The results
will never be satisfactory unless
roses are grown on very rich soil
If possible, procure strong, pc
grown plants, and keep the soil loose
around them on the surface, tina
grass may not get start; ther
: watch carefully for the bugs.
The Virginia creeper and tht
Japanese honeysuckle are gooC
vines to plant on banks or in an!
situation where it is desirable tt
keep the earth firmly in position
These vines root as they grow, form
