1t Plays Very important Part in 1.-The
Burqomaster' Saturday Night.

When good old Peter Stuyvesant was
Governor of New Amsterdam, be dsed
to stump around merrily on a wooden
leg and endeavor to show that he was
as active as the most athletic youth on
the floor as merrily as any Of the young
people. He never let his wooden leg
interfere with his pleasure.
Two years ago William H. Crane was
about to produce a play based on the az
ventures of Peter Stuyvesant, he prac
ticed walking on q wooden leg during the
summer time, wishing to make the char
acter as historically correct as possible.
Crane discovered that the wooden leg
would make him strap his own neither
extremity close up to his body and that
the strapping up gave him eXcruciating
pains The play was rank failure and
so Mr. Crane was spared the necessity
of practicing further.
When the great musical comedy sue
cess. The Burgomaster' was produced
in Chicago, William Norris, who first
essayed the character, was faced with
the same problem. Mr.. Norris solved 1t
by wearing long cloak, letting the sup
posed wooden leg hang naturally at the
knee and wearing a sword at such an
angle that the good leg was effectually
concealed. That Is the reason why the
Burgomaster in the opera always wears
a long cloak Every man who plays the
part finds that he has trouble in dancing
with the wooden leg. Oscar l.. Figman,
who Will be the Burgomaster in the big
revival of THE Burgomaster" which
will be seen at the Academy of Music,
Saturday night, November 2Sth has be
come very expert in this line.

FARMING.

We notice in one of our exchanges
that some writer's contribute articles
under this title, seeming to think that
specialized farming is necessarily single
crop farming, or the growing of one GER
tain crop to the exclusion of ell others.
Of course this is specialization with a
vengeance. But real specialized farming
cannot properly be done without diversi
flcation. The farmer whose soil and eli
mate are specially suited to the produc-
tor of a certain money crop should be a
specialist with that crop But he cannot
be such, and bring his special crop to its
highest production by simply growing
that crop year after year on the same
land. To specialize properly he must di-
versify his crops and so arrange the ro-
tation that all his minor crops shall
tend to the increased producJiveness OF
his soil in the money crop. If he is a
wheat specialist then let him arrange q
rotation of crops that will give the wheat
crop the most favorable position and will
tend to increase the productiveness OF
his soil in wheat till he can in effect
make the subsidiary crops pay for the
growing of the wheat and have the wheat
as a real surplus money crop. THE same
will be the proper course with any other
money crop. The tobacco growers II
some sections are this year in bad way,
and at the mercy of the INSCRIPTIONS To-
bacco Trust, simply because they have
put their sole reliance III Tobacco with
the expensive use Of commercial tertili-
GERS alone, and have neglected the I'M
provement of their land by a proper r0-
tation and the feeding of stock. And such
will at times be the case with the grow
ers of any single crop who merely plant
and fail to farm well. Cotton, the least
exhaustive of all crops on the soil, sc
far as the cotton itself is concerned, has
been made the means of widespread sol
depletion through the single crop system
and the selling of the seed off the land
for the seed of cotton is the part of the
crop that exhausts the land, and should
be returned to it in the form OF the
meal after the oil, which contains nc
plant food, is taken out. Even IN this
season of short cotton crops we know OF
a farm that has been farmed in rtatior
and has produced bale and half per
acre, and a bale and half at the pres.
cnt price Of cotton, ten cents and over
per pound, means between SIS and s10(
per acre, while the single cropper runs
! on the average or below. And the aver
age is about .33 of bale per acre, an6
of course to make this average, where
many grow a bale or more, some must
so far below the .33 of bale, and Sc
of bale at the present high price vii
be only SIC to SIS per acre. Specialize
ton of this sort means making the ccoI
for more than its selling price, and sucl
farming Of course does not pay, for tnt
man who makes only the average ha:
nothing but the cotton and the seed t.
de9end upon, while the man who farms
so well with diversified crops has in tn

where the average man cannot live. The
same is true of other crops as well rs
cotton, for the real specialist is the man
who diversifies in systematic way ard
is farmer instead of mere planter
or sower of crops. Specialization is what
every farmer should if ne is to be success
