Wonders will never cease. In New York
the least popular of Wagner's operas is
'Rheingold"; It Is never given by itself,
but only as the opening night Of the
Tetralogy. In Germany that opera is
sung more frequently than Tristan and
for the fullest appreciation of "Rhein-
gold" It is recorded in Wagner and
His Works" (vol. IL, p. 1881 that when
Angelo Neumann's travelling Wagner

rection of Anton Seidl, the first perform
ances In Italy of the four Nibelung
operas, "Rhetngold'' was particularly ia
vored. At Bologna the trio of the Rheine-
maidens had to be sung twice, and Lie
ban was compelled to sing Mines ex-
tremely un-Italian passage, "Sorglose
Schmiede," three times! Seidl often spoke
of the remarkable Italian prediction for
"Rheingold."
Berlin Is frequently afflicted with as
many as forty, fifty or even more con-
certS in one week. There are three con-
cert bureaus in the city. One of these
has on Its books 400 musicians, including

USING THE DISC HARROW.
A Very Efficient Implement, But Only
When Handled in Just the
Right Way.

The disc as form of soil cultivator
is becoming constantly more popular;
but it must be used right to be effective.
An expert with the disc harrow says:
want to say an encouraging word
for the disc harrow Not all soils are
adapted for it's use-exceedingly stony
land is ill-fitted for it's use, nor perhaps
the heavy, sticky clays. But upon loamy
soils that are loose and upon which sod
quickly forms after seeding there is no
tool to compare to the heavy disc. 1t
seems a waste of money to buy the
small light machines. Farmers often
say: my team is light, cannot draw
those big 20-inch discs, weighted" All
right, then you won't do much business.
These small teams always mean poor
cultivation-upon these heavy sods
there must be given the draft of three or
four horses of good weight-not less
than 1000 pounds. Upon the machine
besides the driver may be added an ex-
ira load of stone to put the discs down
at least five inches, and if the sod is not
torn up go deeper. The field may look
uneven when finished, but spring
tooth or smoothing harrow will do the
leveling and the soil will have been
thoroughly mixed and the cultivation if
prolonged for two weeks will approx
mate the old-fashioned summer fallow.
And if carried along periodically for
four to six weeks it will reduce the stub
born quack grass. Cheap disc sharpen.
! ers are upon the market costing not
more than $3.50 to 50 that will do the
work effectually. These sharp discs
| will do more work with less weight and
somewhat reduced draft. '".t

4 SUGGESTION FROM OHIO
Durability and Usefulness of Wire
- Fence Depend on the Brac-
ing of End Posts.

The matter Of putting in end posts
is. a very important factor in the con-
struction of wire fences. On passing
along different farms in observing
fences. as a general rule, you will see
that the anchors have been pulled up
by the drawing of the fence, or are
leaning. I present plan which I have
used and find it to be very satisfac-
tory. The posts that I have used have
been white oak and walnut, having Sc
cured them from the farm. Posts are
about ten inches in diameter. The
main post, as will be seen by cut, is
placed in the ground four and one
half feet and two two-by-fours spiked
across the bottom. I then fill with
