SUMNER SILO.

Writing in the New York Tribune
on this subject, ''Aurora," one of the
papers staff contributors to the agri-
cultural department says:
During the last few months I have
been collecting evidence bearing up
on the value of the summer silo, and
1 am now disposed to think that it
will in the near future become the &C
| cepted plan for summer soiling, and
all other plans and practices will be
"excuses" for not adopting it, just as
now all sorts of methods are proposed
for feeding the corn crop and saving
expense of erecting a silo, when every
man knows that not one of these
methods approaches the silo in econ
omy of storage, of secured feeding
value of the crop or of ease in feed
ing. The great drouth has been a
notable lesson in regard to soiling
crops and dependence upon them.
Over whole sections of the country
they have been almost failure, and
were no aid in bridging over the long
dry spell; simply because the condi-
tions for producing a good soiling
crop are those that promote grass
growth and make the grass crop of
secondary Importance. 1t is because
of the drying, ripening character of
the pasture grasses that the oats,
peas, millet and like just coming into
maturity are so valuable. 1t is the
succulence that is needed more than
fresh relays of food nutrients, else
good feed of hay would he as valuable
as the same crop fresh from it's grow
ing.
The evidence all seems to point to
the fact that man with small silo
of nice silage from the previous fall
filling has a feed that surpasses in
abundance per acre of digestable food
nutrients all other crops secured at
minimum expense preserve against
future deterioration, and is, when
wanted, at a ready command ap-
preached by no other soiled crop.

YOUNG AMERICAN STAR
HOW JANET wALDORF's START
WAS MADE.
Three Years Ago She was Discovered
by Ada Dow Currier-The Young
Star has Made Success.

The appearance of Janet Waldorf in
a round of classics at the theater will
be an event of dramatic Importance.
Two seasons ago Miss Waldorf was
unknown, but her name now appears
in every issue of the dramatic papers,
and is often found in the journals of
the large cities. A woman with a pur-
pose, level headed, cool and collected
at all times, with a stage experience
that goes back to the palmy days of
the old Bush Street theater, when Alice
Oates was packing that house-such
was, and is, Ada Dow, one of the best
stage directors in America. 1t is now
a part of the history of theatricals in
this country that Julia Marlowe, then
a poor struggling chorus girl, was Ia
ken in hand by Miss Dow, who gener-
ously gave her an education, including
a course of vocal music, fitting her for
the stage, and brought her out at Il
heavy expense as legitimate actress
in a metropolitan theater. Miss Mar
loves immediate success is well known
and ii is not denied that she gained IT
through the personal tuition and sup
port of Ada Dow, who, meeting with
serious accident during the height of
Miss Marlowe's success, sold her inter-
est in the company and subsequently
made a tour of Australia as stage di
rectress of the Sarah Bernhardt COM
pany.
Three years ago she met Janet Wal
dorf in Pittsburg, where she had Gre
ated quite a stir in local amateur en-
tertainments. Seeing that the young
lady possessed considerable talent
Ada Dow, or Mrs. Currier, now the
wife of Frank Currier well and favor
ably known in the theatrical world,
made a ten years contract with the
young actress, and after one year of
constant training, a supporting COM
pany was engaged and the task of
making a reputation began by playing
one night stands in the territory west
of the Missouri river. The improve
ment in Miss Waldorf's work showed
so well that she was put in larger
towns, and the repertoire increased
| The second season began last August
and the same territory visited the first
season was gone over again. The
young actress received an ovation ev-
erywhere Butte, Spokane, Seattle,
Portland, Sacramento, Los Angeles
and San Diego all favored her with
| large patronage, and there was much
encouragement from the critics.
Janet Waldorf now visits San Fran
cisco, as Managers Ada Dow Currier
and James H. Love put it, Just for
an introduction" before the star and
| company depart for a tour of the world
| via Honolulu and Austraia.-San

FRENCH SENSATION.

TOULON, March SIT turns out that
the twelve dynamite cartridges found
behind the TOulon arsenal yesterday
are of a foreign manufacture.
M. IIockroy, minister of marine, in
an interview regarding the explosion
of the magazine at La Goubran, init
mated that the experts now have very
little doubt that it was due to foul
play. He thinks it was possibly caus-
ed by some clockwork arrangement
hidden in a powder key.
NEW YORK, March 8.-A cable to
the World from Paris says:
1t has now become evident that the
explosion of the powder magazine at
La Goubran was the work of an en-
envy. More mysterious than the eX-
plosives found was the attack on the
sentinel there. Two shots We're fired
at him as he stood on guard. The SEN
try gave an alarm and the guard was
turned out, but no providers were dis
covered, though the sentry says he
saw six men running away.
