Time to Plant Fodder Co-r

The best time to put in corn and cut 1t, is the same as when planting it for field corn. It is better to cut the silage when putting it in the silo But it is not necessary to do this. Put it in whole, if no other way.

How to Grow Roses.

Few flowers are more satisfactory to the grower than roses; but even the hardy kinds must have proper care, says the Independent. Planted, as they often are, in the grass of the lawn, and left to their fate, they will be a disappointment. Planted in a we'll enriched, deeply spaded bed and given proper cultivation, they will be joy to their pOssessOrs year after year. ''She hoes her roses as if they were vegetables" a neighbor said of me once, in a tone of surprise. Her idea was that, once planted, a rOsebush needed no further attention. 1 fear that the idea was not her exclusive possession, judging from the speci- mems one often sees.

OTHERS AFTER WELL WATER.

Opposition to the Consolidated water
Supply company grows stronger every
day. A we'll is to be sunk on the prem
ises of John Gubcrt for the benefit OF
the Mitchell & Baglcy laundry ana
other South Main street enterprises
The money to be paid out for water
for the laundry, according to the ad-
vanced schedule, will pay interest sew
eral times on the amount required TO
do the work. Individual effort prom
ises to defeat the Consolidated corpor-
alton even though the Artesian Water
company and municipal ownership en-
terprises should fail. Already it is
feared. however, that the cutting off
of pave washes and other unnecessary
tops will so reduce the corporation s
revenue that another rise in rates will
result and further burden those who
are still dependent on the old source Of
supply. At present there seems to be
nothing in the way of charging 500 q
tap instead of $S.

About three o'clock the Independents
and Electric were rushing over the
ground in response to the gong blow-
ing the alarm Of fire. Upon the ar
rival of the companies the fire was
found to be in the old German ceme-

pile of leaves which burned tiercely
for a short while.
The second blaze was in a small
shanty in what is known as the
Patch" Very little damage was done.
The tool house connected with the

THEATRICAL.
"The Winters Tale. ("

1t is not often that the Shakes
pearean drama is given with such a
wealth of scenery and stage accessories
as marked the production of THE Win
ter's Tale" at the Lyceum last night.
While the works Of the great dramat-
list TEEN with possibilities for the dis
eliminating scenic artist they are sell
dom taken advantage OF. The actor
who essays the legitimate is usually
content to allow his audience to use
their imagination in lieu of scenery.
Wagenhals and Kemper who are man
aging the tour of Louis James Kath-
ryn Kidder and Charles B. Hanford
this year have faith In the drawing
powers of Shakespeare's lines, but they
believe that drawing power can be en-
hanced and the force Of the words
made greater If the play is properly
presented IN a scenic way.
At the Lyceum last night they gave
demonstration of the possibilities Of
Shakespeare from the. scenic artists
point of view Nothing approaching II
in beauty has heretofore been seen in
this city.
While, attention has first been direct
ed to the scenery it must not be in
ferred that "The Winters Tale" has
no more substantial claims to merit.
The mounting is referred to promi /.
nently because 1t is a feature of the
performance that is usually overlooked
when works of the immortal bard holi
/ the boards.
Miss Kidder, who was seen last night
in the roles of Hermlone and Perdita,
is a most discriminating actress. She
managed the scenes in which she was
prominent last night with such CLEVER
ness as to call forth most generous
manifestations of applause from the
| audience Her versatility is shown by
| a contrast of her work in the fourtn
| act when as the unfortunate Queen
Hermione she is publicly accused by
| her husband and condemned to death,
! with that in the succeeding act when
| as the light hearted Perdita she wins
! the love of the heir to the throne OF
| Bohemia. In both of these eXacting
/ characters her work was most satis-
! factory.
! Charles b. Hanford was not rs hap
| by in the role of Leontes. He belongs
| to that school of vigorous, forcefrl ac-
! tors who overlook the fact that better
effects might be obtained with less ef-
fort. There are times-on the stage,
! too-when silence, or something akin
to it, is more eloquently effective than
even a Hanford top note.
Louis James as the delightful old
vagabond Autolycus was eXceieat and
| the audience only regretted hat
Shakespeare saw fit when constructing
the play TO keep Autolycus in the
background until the fifth act.

other than the stars, are Thomas Cof.
