In catering to the amusements and
entertainment Of the theatergoing pub
lie, an up-to-date manager has ever to
be on the alert to provide to his pro.
spective patrons a class of entertain.
ment that will meet their demands and
fully satisfy their faneies.
Amusement seekers demand as much
variety and change in that which is
furnished them for their recreation as
they do in that which is furnished them
for their dinner table. They want, in
both cases, the most for their money,
in quantity, quality and variety. And
the service must be of the best.
A glance at the names of the great
features Mr.. Ricaby offers for this sea-

pure minstrelsey that they will see the
best. There is that prince of comedil

the best is the strawberry. But il

THAT FIELD OF ALFALFA.

The following suggestion with refer
ence to securing a field Of alfalfa for
the territory of Iowa, Minnesota and
Wisconsin may be Of value: Take a
piece of land from which crop Of
barley, oats or winter wheat has been
removed, fertilize it with about ten or
twelve two horse loads of manure,
plow, disk and harrow thoroughly to
get as fine seed bed as possible and
then SOW during the first ten days Of
August twenty pounds of alfalfa seed
to the acre. With favorable weather
the alfalfa will make growth this
fall Of nearly one foot, which should
be allowed to remain on the ground
during the winter. Next year it will
give three crops. By this method two
things are secured-the alfalfa has no
fight with the weeds, and there is no
loss Of a year in the use Of the land.
This plan is we'll worth trying by any
one desiring to get field Of this most
valuable legume. Try two acres for a
hog pasture if for nothing else.

SCREENINGS.

A few years ago the grain buyers Of
the northwest used to: make great
roar and dockage in grain bought be-
cause Of the wild mustard which it
might contain While they dock just as
heavily as formerly, they do not kick,
for they are able to sell the mustard
seed for a good deal more than the
wheat, oats or fax, the mustard later
appearing at 40 cents a pound on the
table Of the man who raised it. The
screenings and weed seed which are
furnished by the mills of the north
west to feed and fatten hundreds Of
thousands Of sheep every winter are
a pure gift by the farmer for this pur-
pose, the dockage demanded by the
mills making it cost them nothing. The
moral of this is that it does not pay
the farmer to raise weeds and mus
tard, though lots Of them do, and, do
ing it, it would pay them to clean their
grain and feed the screenings to sheep
at home
