TWO EXHIBITIONS.
Papa and Mama Must Go and Take
the Children.

The Forepaugh- Sells circus will give
two exhibitions here Tuesday next:
afternoon at two o'clock and evening
at eight. The event is of more than
passing interest to this community. ii
is the day the small boy has been wait
ing for, the circus posters have ha 4
him hypnotized ever since they were
pasted on the boards. Now the
day draws near. and, of course, papa
and mama must go just to take care
of the children and incidentally recall
moments of their own childhood.
1t wasn't so very long ago that
circus with one ring was thought by
old -heads-then young heads, by the
way--to be a pretty big affair. The
one-ring show was changed to two
rings with a larger circumference OF
canvas. Later the series of circus cir
cles was increased to three and then
big platform was added.
But with the speed of the American
nation this was not enough, and the
hippodrome races, which gave brutal
spice to old Roman days, was added.
The evolution of the circus in this way
has reached its highest development
and greatest success under the direct
ing management of the Forepaugh-
Sells Shows.
They have now a show of colossal
size as against what history records Or
the average man is familiar with
When they strike their tents in a given
place instantly a village arises, with a
thousand or more souls, each of whom
has a definite duty, and lends to the
systematic effect of the glorious whole.
And their sheltering roof of canvas by
the exact rules of measurement repre-
sents thousands of yards and affords
not only a temporary home for these
many people, but for five hundred or
more horses, each of which has dis
tinct office in the fulfillment of show
making scheme that has lifted the
name of the Forepaugh- Sells Shows to
a high place of honor.

Special to the News. -Natio nal
Stock Yards, Ill. Feb. 81, 06.
A good moderate run of cattle
early this week met with a slight
ly lessened demand as compared
with a week ago. Beef and butch
er cattle are selling slow to a
dime lower. Outside of one 6
cent bunch there has been nothing
good in the beef steer line. We
sold several lunches of 100-day
fed Kansas steers weighing 1871
to 1903 at $50 to S5.45, also a
good quality light weights and
plain quality heavy weight natives
at $4.75 to $500. Best heifers
brought S4.65, prices ranging
down to $500 to 1915 for com
moner lot. Best COWS 81. so; bulk
So. 80 to S4.00. Killers are strong
competitors for all pretty good
weight feeding steers that show
any flesh. Not enough stockers
and feeders coming to supply the
demand.
Our bullish views on hogs are
reflected in a IS cent advance
since Feb 1st. The fancy price of
Sc. 80 was paid here Monday and
Tuesday; 1925 sales being pretty
plentiful and and the bulk of the
packing grades going at Sc. 10 to
So.
Sheep values practically un-
changed; lambs quarter lower.
A fair grade of stockers selling
S4.OO to S4.35 and western lambs
around S6.65. Very few native

to indicate that puOlic sentiment was

not have been so had it not been fol
the faithful persistent work and heart

True, they could not vote but they
could persuade men IL cast their ballot

them that vote for ruin was a

Our interest in humanity is not

Planting Cuttings.

In regard to cuttings made in the au-
tumn, Professor ]. c. Whitten of Mis-
souri, says: Upon the approach of spring,
as early as the soil can be worked and
before the buds have begun to grow on
them, they should be planted out In
good garden soil. The rows should be
about four feet apart to admit of easy
cultivation, and the cuttings should be
set very firmly in the soil so as to leave
no air spaces about them and set deep
enough so only the uppermost bud Is
above the ground. They should then be
given clean cultivation and hoed to
keep down all weeds during the sum-
mer, when usually an excellent growth
of plants will be secured.

WHY Is Itf

OF all the inhabitants in this country
the southern people ought to be fore
most In demanding parcels post They
are at the mercy of express and rail
road companies, and some Of them are
obliged to go without needed articles
because they cannot afford to pay trans
portation. A parcels post would bring
them within reach Of the best markets
and also compel the common carriers
to be fair. Why is 1t. then, that so little
help in the parcels post campaign
comes from the south? asks Rural New
Yorker.
