Mayor studley Puts sapho Matter Up to Him.
 "sapiio," the play which has caused so much unfavorable criticism at the hands of those who are considered good judges of what moral play should be, and which caused such a furor of dissent when an attempt was made to play it here a year ago, is again billed to be given at the Hyperion this even ing,
 In Springfield and Hartford "Sapho' was cut out of Miss Nethersole's bill because of public dissension. A petition to suppress the play was presented to the mayor by William G. Lotze, the Rev. w. D. Mossman and other well known citizens, and the mayor has placed the matter In the hands of Chief Wrinn, The city attorney Is reported as having investigated the matter and is quoted as having said that 1t is not an indecent play, but MT. Simpson de- nies this. Chief Wrinn has ordered what he calls "the stairway scene and other not very nice parts cut out, and unless this Is done trouble will be brew ing for the Nethersole management. At a conference with the city attorney and chief of police MT. Rowland, the Fly perion manager, promised to take the matter up and try if possible, to have the stairway and other naughty scenes cut out. "Sapho' is advertised to be played at the Hyperion this evening, but no mention is made of cut outs or any other change.

Eroud In Sailing Hides.

A common and just complaint Is
often made regarding the way
butchers and dealers salt their hides.
Frequently 1t will be found that
dealers have tried to increase profits
by economizing in sailing. The con-
sequences are harmful because OF
the loss of glue and albuminous cub
stances and the formation of defects
on the grain. Many hide has lost
much of it's value through this care
less treatment. 1t Is often the be-
lief that to salt the butt is sufficient,
while less importance Is placed on
the waste parts. However, the head,
ears and belly need the greatest care
in this respect, because they are the
most subject to destruction. There
Is also no object to be gained by
sailing the hide so that the waste
parts are folded in. The folded parts
are apt to become horny and are
difficult to tan, or the so-called salt
spots become noticeable, which pre-
sents a poor appearance on the lin
ished leather and reduce its value
Regarding the question as tc
whether common or rock salt is tC
be used, preference 1T seems Is IL
favor of the latter. Rock salt Is mol
as effective, but 1t is possible to sail
the hide with 1t In all parts without
fear of expense. Hides must be re-
sailed several times, especially II
handled often. Some INSCRIPTIONS
dealers treat their hides with fine
salt, by means of which they seek tt
create swelling and in this manner
give the hide better appearance
Flat hides treated In this way viii

not thoroughly posted he will be de
ceived. Many fiat hides are bough

The BalkY Horse.

A balky horse is hard enough to
handle when driven by himself on
the road, but it is decided nuisance
when working with another horse.
One of the best ways to handle such
a horse in the latter case is to take
a stout rope, If the horse works on
the left, fasten one end to the left
side of the hame ring, pass 1t around
Just below the breeching and hitch 1t
to the ring in the hame Of the other
horse, on the inside. Draw up most
Of the slack, start the horses and IL
one horse goes along all right the
other horse will follow as soon as he
discovers that IL he does not he Is
likely to lose the hair on his side. 1t
is always best, in the case OF balky
horse to use some appliance rather
than to attempt to coerce him open
ly. Ir he does not think the driver
has a hand in the urging he Is much
more likely to get move on, and
the more mysterious the source OF
the thing that moves him the more
quickly the balky habit will be
broken.

Abolishing the Dust Nuisance.

Many cures for dust annoyance
have been suggested, as the sprink-
ling of our roads with crude oil and
different solutions Of absorbent salts,
These will prevent the dust, but are
too expensive to be generally used.
Our remedy, therefore, would be a
strict enforcement of the speed limit.
the abolition of armored tires, chain
tires. and blowers, and sprinkling
of all our improved roads early In
the morning and late In the evening.
This would preserve the roads and
would reduce the cost of repairs very
materially, at the same time giving
us a. better, smoother and more dust
less surface than we now enjoy.

The Farmers Orchard,

The land owner, large or small.
who tills his own soil, is guilty OF
mismanagement II he has not an or
chard of the staple fruits. The pre-
vailing trouble comes in the lack OF
care or the improper care OF farm
orchards. In the outset the farmer
planted his orchard with the idea In
mind that that would be the last
work necessary. except perhaps. to
occasionally NOW the grass or weeds
In it, until the bearing time. This
idea Is grossly misfounded. The or
chard needs pruning and cultivating
and spraying. the first two duties be-
ing necessary from the first year that
the trees are planted. and the spray
ing proposition comes along when
the trees have arrived at an age for
bearing and 1t is the spraying that Ia
more neglected than any other neces-
sity.-Nebraska Farmer.

Farm Less and Make More,

Some men go on the theory that
II farming is a paying business and
good thing, more of 1t will pay
better and will be better thing. II
man could do lot and do 1t as
well as he can do the right amount,
there would be no reason why this
theory wouldn't stand the hard
knocks of practice; but no man can
hire work done as we'll as he can do
1t himself; that is, farm work. And
here Is where the overreaching
farmer falls down.
or all farms in the United States
those paying best per. acre are the 40
and 80 acre farms. 1t Is true that
there are some instances that al
most anyone can cite where the 200,
800 and 400 acre farm Is paying the
best, but we speak of farming as a
whole-of the average farm In the
United States.
We know of no better advice right
now than that of far-seeing farm
er OF nifty years ago VINO SAID Inc
man who gets hold of only what
land he can farm and farm with his
own hands, is going to be the con-
tented and prosperous man of the
future; get this much and leave the
rest for the other fellow" 1t Is an
soft-repeated sentence, but real farm
ing, real producing in the West
hasn't been stratched yet. Men who
are, year In and year out, farming
more than they can farm well are
responsible for the low general aver
age of all farm crops per acre. Do
only what you can do well and leave
the rest for the other fellow, in
stead of hiring him to do it for you.

WHEAT AND BARLEY AS FEED
The Former Sells al a Good Price
When Sold as Pork.


Experiments in hog feeding have
been carried ON at the Washington
experiment station by Professor e.
E. Elliott with the purpose of deter
mining the value of wheat and bar
ley as a food for hogs. The conclu-
sion Of the experiments are as fol-
lows;
|, Wheat appears to be the food
best adapted for long continued feed
ing. In each case the pigs receiving
the grain maintained steadier adj
yancement than any of the other
lots.
2. The addition of peas or oats to
4 mixed ration does not show any
practical advantage over wheat
alone, This should not be taken as
conclusive evidence against the feed
Ing of these grains In combination.
g. The greater cost of the peas
stands in the way of their profitable
use as q grain feed when combined
with the grains herein noted.
4. The results secured from bar
ley are In both tests disappointing.
Whether fed in combination or alone
it stands at the foot Of the list.
5. Experiment No. l shows that
ene bushel of wheat will produce
1913 pounds of pork In the second
experiment only 1913 pounds were
produced from this quantity.
6. The mixed rations produced for
the same pounds of grain eaten 1919
ppunds Of pork In experiment l and
as pounds In experiment 2.
z. Barley in combination with
wheat gave lower results than when
alone. Sixty pounds of barley pro-
duced 9O2 and 81 pounds of pork,
respectively,
8, The general results In amount
of food eaten Is somewhat above the
average reported elsewhere, but the
gain per day is above the average
also,
0. With fatted hogs bringing
5k q &c. per pound there is heavy
profit to be made In feeding wheat.
10. To feed the animal slightly
below rather than up to the limit OF
Its capacity Is probably the wiser
plan to pursue.
II. Feeding hogs must have suffi-
cient exercise to enable them to
maintain an appetite,
