Runaway Grip

James T. Powers and his merry making
companions of "A Runaway Girl" began
a weeks engagement last night at the CO.
lumbia Theatre in the presence of an au-
dience that taxed both the seating and
standing capacity of the playhouse. The
interpreting company is of good size and
the rendering of the English musical COM
edy was distinct success in every way
The swinging music of the piece proved
inspiring enough to win from two to eight
encores for almost every number. The
organization is a decidedly able one and,
besides Mr.. Powers, includes such clever
people as Van Rensselaer, Wheeler. Maui

POWERFUL OIL LAMP.
Canadian Device Which Burns Fla,
Brighter Than an Incandescent.

Canadian Device Which Burns Far
Brighter Than an Incandescent.
A students incandescent coal oil
lamp giving far better brilliancy than
a 16 candle power electric light has
been invented by V. L. Emerson Of
Ottawa, Ont. The incandescence is
created by blowing thin stream of
coal oil in spray over film shaped
like the Auer light burner, and the re-
suit is said to be light of about 20
times the brilliancy of an ordinary 16
candle power electric light, and it will
cost one-tenth of cent an hour.
To an ordinary students coal oil
lamp Mr.. Emerson has attached a
small box, into which air is forced by
means of a pump, and is there COM
pressed, says the Chicago Tribune.
The air is connected with the oil
chamber and the air pressing upon the
oil forces it through a tiny hole in a
pipe leading to the burner This pipe
is curved like an S, and when the oil
escapes from the pipe it is spray and
is cast over the film, where it burns
with great brilliancy.
A company Will be formed in Ottawa
to manufacture the lamps. A heating
arrangement on the same basis is also
said to be giving excellent results and
will be manufactured

CHEAP STOCK FOOD.
Outside the Corn ReIt-Mixed Grain
Ration and Green Pasture.

Outside the Corn Ralt-Mixed Grain
Ration and Green Pasture.
TO determine the feeding value of
mixed grain ration as compared with
one of a single kind of grain numerous
experiments have been conducted, and
in every case the results favor mix
ed ration. This is one strong reason
why superior quality of pork can be
produced in the northwest, where such
a large variety of grains and forage
plants can be grown.
In corn growing sections there is a
disposition to feed corn almost ex-
clusively on account of it's cheapness,
its fattening qualities and the relish
with which it is eaten. While in many
sections we cannot grow corn success
fully as a grain crop, we can grow
long list Of other cereals, such as oats,
barley, wheat, millet and rye, and we
can grow them cheaply with very little
danger of failure. AS no artificial fer
tilizer is needed to grow these crops in
the northwest the cost of production

stock foods. A mixture Of chopped
wheat, oats and shorts will give bet
ter results than a single grain of any
sort, not excepting corn. A mixture of
this kind is usually cheaper than
wheat alone. and will produce better
gains. Chopped oats should not be
fed alone. The hulls interfere very
;ClI ;%e,x
hogs. They do not enjoy the hulls and
will refuse to eat the oats quicker than
any other grain except bran, which
they do not relish, principally for the
same reason. Chopped barley and
shorts make good combination for
feeding. A small amount of bran can
be used to good advantage when mixed
with other grains. Shorts alone will
not furnish mineral matter enough for
growing pigs.
Small grain should be crushed or
ground for hogs. When fed whole,
there is less gain to amount of food
consumed, and the total gain in a
given time will be less. In conclusion
n. T. French of Idaho expresses the
OpiulOA ludC tucIe - d UIOsid ASl0 Aol
the farmers of the Pacific northwest
to occupy in producing superior arti-
Gle of baco- and other pork products.
The climatic and feed conditions are
the very best that can be found for
producing a grade of pork which can
not be excelled in the world.
There is not day in the year over
large areas In this section when hogs
cannot have some form Of green sue
es and annual plants can be provided
that furnish large amount of food
which, supplemented with small ra-
ton of grain, will produce superior
article of meat.

Fashions From Paris.

Some odd ideas are shown in the dec
Grafton of gowns in Paris now. For
instance. travelling gown Of loosel!
woven pastel blue plaid cheviot has
bands of white enameled leather for
trimming, says Harper's Bazaar. These
outline the vest, form the collar and
belt and run in two points down on the
front of the skirt. The lower part Of
the skirt is made in kilt form, pretty
old fashion revived. Stitched bands
are most popular wherever they are
possible, even on silk gowns. On ducks,
linens and piques they are thesusual
trimming. On blue yachting gown
the white pique front panel has crisis
crossed bands Of the same stitched on.
