fal." and other music from that great
work of Wagners is used for certain pre-
ludes during the play. This music is ems
ployed because in the whole range Of
composition there is nothing else so signi-
ficent Of the character and spirit of the
Heyse drama. Certain incidental music
for the play has been composed by Mr..
Charles Puerner, the musical director Of
the Manhattan theater. this including the
vocal numbers and the music for the
Egyptian dance. all in the spirit Of the
play. In going to "Parsifal' it was not
only with the intention of adopting some
thing sympathetic with this drama, but
also TO give representation to the highest
in musical art. In the third act occurs a
Jewish lament and in writing the music
for this Mr.. Puerner has tried as nearly
as possible to reproduce the character Of
Jewish music OF the time.

plants are unlike in their ability to as
simulate these different constituents.
This is due to some extent to the diff
ference in their root systems, some OF
which go deeper than others and draw
their food from different layers of soil
1t is also probably fact that the caps
OF the roots of plants throw ont n Juice
that works upon the manurial ingredi-

unavailable food into available This
ability differs with different plants, and
1t is probable that the root juices are

BY the rotation of crops the injury from
insects is greatly lessened- When crop
stands on the same ground for years the
insects common to that crop have a
breeding ground that is undistuibad from
year to year. Their peculiar feed is found
every year in the same place. But when
rotation is followed the insects OF one
year find themselves deprived Of food the
next and the young ones perish by
myriads. In fields subject t" rotation in
