THE ELKS AT NIGHT.
How They Kill Time From Dark to
 Daylight.

The Elks surprised somebody last night. In fact, they surprised a great many people. It is well known that a great deal of historic talent exists among the fraternity even here ia Phoenix, which from it's geographical location, is not geographical center. It is also well known that the order was founded and fostered to a great extent by followers Of the footlights, but it remained for last nights min strel show to demonstrate that the latent talent for activity is one of the influences and life forces transmitted to the young fawn ct his birth into the order and his capability expands with the development of his antlers. To be an Elk is to be an actor real, if not professional.
 Old stags, who never faced an aud fence before, appeared on the stage last night in leading roles and performed their parts almost as well as those who maks some pretensions.
 The opera house was packed to it's utmost capacity and many chairs were placed in the aisles.

THE MATTER OF SPELLING.

The assertion was made recently that not three members of the house of commons could spell ''unparalleled" off hand Once this would have been no insult, as it used to be said that no gentleman could be so in-bred as to spe! correctly. Like Napoleon. states men of the past century were too busy in great affairs to mind orthography. The Evening Post recalls the old Duch- ess of Gordon, who laid down a conve1- tent rule: You know, my dear, when l don't know how to spell a word l al ways draw a line under it, and if it is spelt wrong it passes for a very good joke, and if it is spelt right it doesn natter

seren rlmc. a widow.

Sonora Rey Castillo, Mexican lady.
surely holds the worlds record for null
tjple widowhood, as she has worn the
weeds seven times between the years
1880 and 1895. A curious feature OF
the case is that each of her consorts
found violent but different exit from
life. The first fell out of carriage;
the second took poison by accident; the
third persisted by a mining accident;
the fourth shot himself; the fifth was
killed while hunting; the sixth met his
death by dropping from scaffolding,
and the last was drowned.

tent be used as a substitute for corn
under such circumstances. Broom
corn millet, sometimes called Manitoba
millet or Hog millet, is substitute for
corn in sections where corn will not
thrive, bSt it also may be profitably
grown for forage in corn growing sec
tions. It looks very much like broom
corn while growing 1t is raised more
for seed than some other varities OF
millet, but is sometimes raised for fod-
der only.
Millet requires soil rich in veget-
able matter and rather free. Loans
and dark prairie soil grow 1t well. 1t
is of shyer growth on clay and sand.
1t may be sown at any time after the
corn planting season has arrived, but
should not be sown in early spring.
The season for sowing continues
through the summer as long as there
is moisture sufficient to make it ger
inmate. 1t requires, however, from
sixty to seventy-five days to make a
full crop of fodder, and it is easily in
jured by the early frosts. Millet is
much grown as a catch crop after the
failure of some other crop, or after
rye that has been pastured Off. When
It is the only crop grown on the soil
during the season, the ground may be
prepared as for q crop of corn. The
more frequently the ground Is stirred
in the spring before sowing the cleaner
and better the crop is likely to be. The
seed may be sown by hand with "a
broadcast seeder, or with seeding at
tachment on the grain drill. In the
last case no covering may be neces-
sary. When broadcasted it is best to
cover the seed with some form OF
smoothing harrow. The amount OF
seed usually sown is from half bush
ell to a bushel per acre. 1t is ready
for harvesting when majority Of the
heads have appeared. When cut at
this stage there is no loss from shat
tering of seed and the fodder is leafy
and appetizing. 1t requires more time
to cure than ordinary hay, but may be
made ready for storing in the same
way. 1t is proper to say that when
fed to horses it should not be given
more than once day, as it contains
some principle not yet we'll under
stood that makes it injurious to horses
as an exclusive feed.

II it becomes overripe, however, 1T gets
woody and unpalatable and its feeding
value is very quickly impaired in this
way. The seed furnishes good feed for
live stock when fed judiciously, but of
course the ripening Of the seed i'm
pairs the value of the fodder. There
are a number of varieties cultivated,
among them the common millet, Ger
man millet, Hungarian grass, the Col
den Wonder, Broom Corn millet. etc.
The common millet produces a great
deal of seed, but not so much fodder,
nor is it so valuable as some other va
rieties. The German millet has a
strong habit of growth, is quite leafy
and hence produces a large amount OF
fodder for good quality. Where the
seed grown is of southern growth, the
best yields Of fodder are usually Sc
cured. Hungarian grass is closely akin
to the German millet in its habits OF
growth. The Golden Wonder millet
Is very productive of seed, having
heads uncommonly long and heavy.
1t is the variety commonly plant
ed when seed is the chief object
sought, and as it will ripen further
