Fall Pasture.


The value of good, succulent pas
ture for swine can not be easily over
estimated. At our farm during the re-
cent past we inclosed a number of
growing swine in rape pasture. We
drove down in the same a well to wa
ter some IL or IA feet below the sur
face. A trough was furnished and the
water pumped into the same from day
to day The rape was strong and Wig
orous, thus furnishing plenty of shade
for the swine They were not given
any other food for several weeks, and
yet they appeared to grow and thrive
well. The question of pastures should
undoubtedly be taken UP in system
attic way by growers of swine-The

Mr.. Dekum and Mr.. Jones are both
graduates of the Sargent School of
Acting, and the manner in which Mr..
Fitch came to secure the services of
the first is another story, as Kipling
would say. But going Kipling one
better, The New York Daily News will
tell it right here.
1t seems that one afternoon last
Spring Mr.. Fitch was driving down
Fifth avenue in a hanson with a
friend. The friend bowed to a young
man passing on the sidewalk.
Who is that?" inquired Mr.. Fitch.
"Oh, a friend of mine who has just
graduated from the Empire school"
Indeed" cried Mr.. Fitch. It's odd
he should turn out to be an actor Do
a small part in my Major Andre,
which Arthur Byron is to do next
autumn. Send him up to see me, will
you?'
The friend was only too glad to do
this service for Delxum, who is an am
bilious youth from Portland, Ore, but
when Mr.. Fitch tested his powers he
found him deserving of better things
that the tiny role he first had in mind
for him. Thus he goes on the road

brother in The Girl With the Green
Eyes the role created last fall by John

the dances until the Queen, after dis

off.
There is a plan afoot to keep the
identity of the Queen a complete secret

herself and give the revealing signal
