Don't Plant Japan Rice.

AS the time for planting is nearing
we think 1t well to say few words
asaihSt the extension of the culture of
Japan rice. We are led to do this as
we nnd that there is il considerable in
curry for seed OF this iesciiutiou. and
it Is evident that a large number have
an idea that the result of its cuIliya-
ton has proven mucl, more satisfaclo
fy Than that which has furnycIIy been
obtained from the old fashion domes-
,lc sorts. Our objection is that it is un-
IKE the domestic. and when by chance
1t Is combined herewith, doprecates
t'e value OF the entire bulk. 1t might
seem extravagant to liktn the intro
ductlon of japan seed TO the Cana.la
th,sties, still it has been bad enough as
1t has resulted in "mongrel rice"
neither one thing nor the other. There
nave been exceptions where the out
come was white, but it is generally
agreed that 80 per cent is Of low order
or more than one-half domestic red

"Texas, or the Siege of the Alamo

The play was more than was claimed for
it and the crowd sent up cheer after
cheer during its progress. The differ
ent parts were rendered perfectly, and
the costumes were exceedingly appro-
pirate to the play. This piece calls
forth the enthusiasm and pathetic feel
ings Of every Texan who witnesses it,
for all know, from the oldest to the
youngest, of the little Spartan band of
Texans at the ill-fated Alamo. Each
act increases in interest and the last
scene raises the audience to the pin
