RYE AS A FORAGE PLANT.
Its ADVANTAGES and How II IL GrownI
In Narious states.

In Various Stntes.
l.. H. pamfaei of Iowa. who thinksl
the value of rye as n forage plant u
rot appreciated as Ii should be, writes
OF Il as follows In The Prairie
Farmer:
II used during the fail or winter, rye
should be started early In the season.
as early In September ms possible: then
1t might nc pastured through octoberi
and November without dctrimcnt. Care
should. however, be taken not to stock
too heavy. In western Wisconsin,
where considerable quantities ara
sown, II Is started early IN September.
During October and November sheep
are allowed Ia range on II. II viii not
do 10 turn cattle In. as they are very
npt to injure II by trnmplng.
in most parts OF the country rye has
been chiefly grown with reference 10
its value as summer forage plant
Thus in AiHbnma Il was found when

They Were Used 10 Amuse che Tmbe-
ellie Charles VI of France.


A diligent search through ancient rec
ords reveals the fact that the iirst mem
ton of n doll was made during the reign
Of King Charles vi Of France. The
story goes that an Italian named Puseilo
Grivaldi gave an exhibition at Paris Of
60 wax figures, among which were fac
SMILES Of several Roman expresses. To
this theater of marionettes all Paris
thronged, and the fame of the show be-
came SO great that Queen Isabella and
the other members of the court resolved
to entertain the king with it. The mon-
arch, as students of history know, was
mentally unbalanced, and this seemed
just the sort of amusement to please
him.
Accordingly Grivaldi brought his wax
figures to court and. aided by trained
monkey, gave & very funny entertain
ment. The king was especially pleased
with a wax figure which was supposed
to represent Poppaea, the beautiful wife
of Nero, for whose sake he put his first
wife to death and who also in her turn
came to an untimely end at his hands.
King Charles was much moved when he
heard her touching story, and he insisted
on keeping the beautiful wax Poppaea.
Signor Grivaldi awaited himself of the
opportunity to make little money cas-
lily and finally consented to part with
his treasure for 400 goldpieces. The king
was delighted, and hardly week passed
that he didenot buy another wax figure
from the Ingenious Italian. Wishing to
please him, the entire court followed his
example, SO that for awhile wax figures
were exceedingly popular in Paris.
When Charles vi died, however,
change came. The numerous Poppaeas
and other wax figures were turned over
to the children, and with them they have
even since continued to be popular A
striking proof of the truth of this story
is the fact that the German word for
doll is "puppe," and the French word is
''poupee," both of which are clearly
forms of the word "Poppaea. Omaha

closure surrounded by solid, high, brick

night to protect them from the wolves,
which in California would make short
work of flocks left out in the open plain

Arriving at the ranch just at nightfall

conduct their various hocks into the fold
