 Again, when the air has been ad- mitted to the lower depths of the clay it carries carbonic acid into the soil, and there follows a solution of the lime, which in turn tends to force the fine clay paticles into larger compound clusters, thus rendering the soil more open, and hence better drained and better ventilated

Farmers Finding The Advantage O
 Modern Draining.

Farmers Finding The Advantage Of
 Modern Draining.
 Tile drainage is no longer an experi- ment, writes Prof. ". H. Stevenson. of the Iowa Agricultural College. Over 60 years have elapsed since John Johnson first introduced underdrainage into New York as a means of improving soil conditions. and since that time it's value has been demonstrated over and over again in many sections of the country.
 Most farmers realize that drainage benents the land in one or possibly two ways, but there are comparative ly few who have thought of all the sources of benefit referred to in this brief article.
 Drainage prevents stagnation of the soil The roots of plants and micro scope life constantly tend to exhaust the supply of oxygen in the soil. There fore it is imperative that the water in the soil be frequently changed by fresh suply. containing an abundance of atmospheric oxygen.
 Lack of drainage makes the soil water more or less stagnant of the fact that the water which comes to the sur i face through rainfalls will not enter a soil already saturated, but flows away over the top of the ground. The result ! is that the soil water remains practi- ically unchanged and the roots of the plants and the soil bacteria are in great danger of destruction because of lack of oxygen.
 Adequate drainage increases the frmness of the soil, and thus renders it fit for cultivation earlier in the season. The surplus water readily percolates into the drained soil and permits the surface to become firm and solid. This spaces between the soil grains are filled with water, for then there is Q { lack of surface tension and the soil grains move easily.
 Oxygen in the soil is as essential for the life of the plant as it is for the ami mal Without free oxygen in the soil the seed fails to germinate and in a short time rots, the roots or plants fail to accomplish their apointed tasks, the innumerable hosts of soil bacteria whose work 1t is to change the nitro lgen of decaying organic matter into an available form perish, and the germs on the roots of the red clover and other leguminous crops, which sup ply available nitrogen at the lowest cost, to not accomplish their important work.
 When the soil is full of water to with in few inches of the surface there can be no circulation of air among the particles. Drainage vent,lates the | soil by lowering the ground water three or four feet, and thus makes it possi- ble for the roots of plants to pene- trate the soil more deeply. In time these roots die and decay and afford 1 ipassageways throughout the soil for the ready movement of air.
 Thus are conditions secured which promote the growth of the plants. facli- itate the work of the unlimited host Of soil bacteria and hasten the formation of available plant food In many States one of the most far-reaching of title drainage is found in the change wrought in many of the almost im- pervious clays When these deeper clay soils dry out, as they often do after underdrainage, shrinkags checks

 Several new principals will be seen in the comedy opera, "A Venetian Ro- mance," when it is seen here next Tues day and Wednesday evenings. Aiming them, Ignatio Martinetti, is one of the best known. He has a long record of successes. Martinetti is best known among those who watch the pings of the stage as the original newsboy in Den mn Thompsonis Joshua Whitcomb ? | Those who remember seeing that play twenty years ago must recall the nimble footed 'Newsy'' with the wonderful whirling pirouette. Martinetti is with out doubt the finest dancer in this coun- try. He was raised in the ballet of the Royal Opera in Naples, Italy, and was brought to this country when small child by his parents, who were also noted dancers. Of late aMrtinetti has been identified in leading roles with Anna Held, and in ''The Medal and the Maid' heplayed an important part. He is known as the most desirable actor in this country for French and Italian character or eccentric parts. In "A Venetian Romance" a part suited to his peculiarities has been written, that of Garibaldi Nervusini, one of the comic hits of the piece. Nervusini is a police official of Venice, collects tributes from everyone who has money to protect themselves from being robbed by Mur- derallo's outlaw band, is himself the friend and agent of the robber chief and hcronic kleptomaniac in the bar gain.
