Haworth's feeling toward his art at this

from his own description of his first meet
ing with Edwin Booth. In an interview a
few years ago he said:
II had read of the tragedy that cast
mantle of blackness around our hero of the
stage for a brief period and left the stamp
of everlasting sorrow on his pale, intel
lectual brow and in his luminous eyes, and
that served to create in our own imagina-
tions the ideal Hamlet, Iago and Lear.
Naturally. when the announcement was
made that the great artist was coming to
play at our .theater, l was much exercised
and grew frightfully nervous having been
cast (for- the first time) for Laertes, Cassie

bled me was my anxiety to please in the
foiling bout in the last act of Hamlet. I
played the part with all the nervous force
L possessed, and perhaps little more; and
reaching the final scene-I met on the
boards for the first time Edwin Booth, as
Hamlet, face to face. There was some
thing indescribable in that look; was un-

Washington City, the two Hills met
Ex-Governor w. D. Hoard of Wiscon-
sin, editor of Hoard's Dairyman,
and straightway the senior Hill was
deep in a discussion relative to the
best ration for feeding hogs. While
engrossed in this subject they
were spied by a congressman, who
intruded himself straightway. If there
is anything Jim Hill don't want around
him it's the average congressman
filled with his own overwhelming self
Importance.
what did you say you'd feed a So
pound hog?" queried the governor.
And Mr.. Hill proceeded to figure up
a balanced ration with corn, skim
milk and little oil meal
Good! good" cried the governor,
clapping his hands at Mr. Hills keen
ness in answering the problem.
did you ever try wheat?" broke in
the congressman.
EYES," answered Mr.. Hill, "it's a
little too starchy, but will make good
feed in lieu of corn"
"How do you feed it?" was the next
question. "Do you soak it or feed
dry?"
DRY" was Mr.. Hills answer.
"Wrong-all wrong! You ought to
feed it wet. If you feed it dry it
takes the animal two hours to eat it."
and asked:
and dryly asked
what do you figure the hogs times
worth an hour?"
The congressman was squelched,
and hurriedly withdrew, leaving them
to continue their discussion without
further interruption.

D. S. TROY.

IF the editor of The Ranch were
asked the question: Where is the
model farm of Western Washington"
his reply would be: "The Glendale
Farm in Jefferson county" Probably
there are other farm owners in West
ern Washington who would be ready to
DISPUTE Glendale's claim for first place,
but we think if all the points of sit
uation, management, productiveness
and results were taken into consldera-
tian. that our off-hand selection would
be found the winner.
Mr.. D. S. Troy is the manager OF
Glendale Farm. He is, by the way,
native son, having been born at Dun
geness, Clallam county, in 1870. He
worked on his fathers farm until the
age of 10. and secured his education
at the Puget Sound University, which
was then located at Olympia.
He was for the following seven years
in the employ of the Merchants Ma
tional Bank, of Port Townsend. About
that time there was wanted manager
for the Ladd estate property, in JEFF
ferson county, and Mr.. Troy was cho-
sen to fill the position. He has made
something of record in the manage
ment of the Glendale farm and cream
cries On July 1st of last year the
Glendale Creamery company was or
ganized, with Mr.. Troy as manager,
and having creameries at Quilcene
and Dungeness, and skimming sta
tions at Center and Leland.
Mr.. Troy is the retiring secretary
of the Washington State Dairymen's
Association, which position he filled
faithfully for the last three years.
The members of the association are
now getting up fund to purchase for
him handsome gold watch and chain,
as testimonial of their appreciation
of his services, and the esteem in
which he is held.

What's a Hogs Time Worth?

James J. Hill, the railway magnate,
is noted for his wonderful mastery OF
detail, not only in all departments OF
his railroad work, but in everything
else to which he turns his attention.
AS is well known, he is himself
farmer, and takes the liveliest inter-
est in grain and stock raising. He
pursues a strong and fixed policy in
the breeding of live stock, and upon
the occasions where he has attended
farmers meetings has surprised those
present by his knowledge of the sub
jects under discussion. Samuel Hill,
his son-in-law, manager of the Seat
tie gas works, and president and lead
ing spirit of the Washington State
Good Roads Association, tells good
story which illustrates this character
istic of the railway magnate, and
shows, moreover, his keen sense OF
humor:
