1t seemed rather like old times at the Bush
street Thester last night for "Sou tn Before
the War; is nothing more or less than an old
time minstrel show with few modern i'm
pTovements thrown in. These improvements
consist of the ramatograph and the co Ored
actresses, who, by the way, add very malerI-
ally 10 the show. some of them being pretty,
some swe eI-voiced and all lively dancers. The
men OF the troupe TOO are good dancers. The
programme has among other charms two
funny sketches, three quarters, a human frog
and a real coon cakewalk. The management
announce that the matinees on Wednesday,
Saturday and Sunday will be 'ladies' bargain

Gauges of Poor Crops.

Poor crops are bound to come at one
time or another on almost every farm.
Sometimes they are the result of natural
causes and sometimes they are not. BY
natural causes we mean the elements and

when there has been too much rain or too
little rain, too much heat or too much cold.

A Hardy Orange as A Hedge Plant

My experience with the wild japanese
orange, Citrus trifoliata, as a hedge fence
plant is a success. When used as a hedge,
the plants should be set in a single row 6
inches apart, and in years after planting
you viii have fence that will be dog,
hog, cattle and rogue proof. The trees are
very thorny with spines that are sharp
as needles. 1t does not occupy much space
as it is semi-dwarf in growth. Prof. Mas
sey says: II consider this orange the most
perfect hedge plant yet found for all parts
of the country; it is provided with long
spines of the sharpest and most persist
ent character; its roots will not ramble all
over the land, and will make one of the
most ornamental of hedges, giving a great
profuSion of sweet orange blossoms in
spring and lots of little sour oranges in
the fall. 1 attribute the scarcity of hedge
made with this ideal hedge plant to the
cost of the seed which we had to import
from Japan. and most of the seed will not
terminate after 1t gets thoroughly dry. 1
have my place and field surrounded with
1t, which IS now feet high and forms a
formidable barrier and my hedge fences
are now bearing me a revenue instead of
an expense from the sale of seed. A cotton
patch of 20 acres fenced with it has
brought me more money than the cotton.
Trees l year old sell at $40 per LOCO; set 6
inches apart, the cost is only 32c per rod
the cheapest fence that can be made.-J.
