ADMISSION IN CIRCUIT.
Rumor Says Jake Wells VIII Take At.
fractions There.

Admission, August 25.-(Special) -Will the
Noble Street Opera house be taken into
the Wells circuit of southern play
houses? 1t is understood that negotiations
are under way to accomplish this end
and Jake Wells, the manager of the ex-
cellent circuit bearing his name, has been
reported as advocating the addition of
Admission to the list. The Wells circuit
embraces popular houses IN Birmingham,
Montgomery, Mobile and Atlanta and with
the addition of this city would make a
complete chain of the largest cities OF
the section.
= The jump from Birmingham to Atlanta
IS a big one for theatrical company
TO make and managers have often ex-
pressed themselves as DESTROYS of stop
ping over In Admission. AS the Wells cir
cult uses only the very best attractions
on the road, the Admission theatre-loving
public would enjoy some high class pro-
auctions If the local house is admitted
to the fold. Local parties disclaim any
knowledge of the proposed deal and place
little credence In the reports from At
lanta.

BIJOU THEATRE
NEWLY PAINTED
POPULAR THEATRE HAS BEEN RE-
PAINTED AND PHOTOGRAPHED.
COLOR SCHEME MOST ATTRACT
VE-cURTAlN CHANGED.

The Bijou theatre will throw open its
doors next Monday night, resplendant
in new decorations. The house has been
repalnted within and without. The in
terror color scheme has been changed to
green and white and gold, a combination
that is not only most attractive to the
eye, but gives an impression of GOODNESS
and airness that is most attractive in a
playhouse
large force of men and women has
been engaged in getting the theatre ready
for the opening night for several weeks
past When theatregoers visit the Bijou
Monday night they will be surprised at
the agreeable change which has taken
place. The house has been cleaned and
renovated from top to bottom. Nothing
has escaped scrutiny, so that the result
has been most pleasing. The interior is
sure to please an artists eye, with Its
charming contrast of colors, set off by
drcperies of green velvet trimmed in gold.
Very handsome relief work has also been
done on the walls and around the base
of the gallery curve.
The handsome curtain which was in
stalled short time before the close OF
the summer season did NOT exactly suit
the exacting requirements of Manager
Semon, so 1t has been re-painted and will
now harmonize beautifully with the elab-
crate decorations of the Bljou.
The executive staff for this season Will
be unchanged. Ernest Looney will con-
tnue as treasurer and Bert Black will
be door man.

PEDIGREE PLANTS.
Real Necessity of PcdiErce-SO Called
Pedigree Strawberries.

W. J. GREEN and +. II. BALLOU. Ohio
experiment station.
The word pedigree" has come to be
used with reference to plants in a
sense which conveys Il meaning that Is
altogether untrutiful An animal with
IL pedigree is one having known an
cestry. The parentagc on both sides
must be known for one or more gen
erations. 1t has not been the custom
among plant breeders, however, to keep
record Of the parentage of plants
that is, pedigrees have not been cstab-
lished, except very rarely pedigree
in the case of II variety of plants propa-
gated from seeds, as In the case Of veg
etables or grains, might have great
value because it Is the aim of the grow
err of such plants to secure uniformity
in the product and to develop strain
which will come true from seeds.
Propagation by Division md Seed.
Any variety of plants which is prop
agated by means of cuttings, layers,
runners, CRAFTS or by any method of
division may have a pedigree, but Its
value would not be enhanced thereby.
Plants which are propagated by divi-
sion come just as nearly true-that Is,
are not more inclined to vary or sport
with poor as with Il good ancestry.
a Seeding from Ben Davis would when
propagated by division hold Its type
quite as well as one from Grimes
Tn, hn IF
plants which are prOpagated from seeds
the type Is fixed and held by selection.
and the more careful the selection, or,
In other words, the better the pedigree,
the more firmly the type becomes fixed
and the better the variety. With plants
which are propagated by division selec-
ton has nothing to do with the fixed
ness Of the variety. Plants Of this
class are more firmly fixed by nature
as to type than are those which are
propagated from seeds.
To Secure q Plant Pedigree.
To secure variety Of strawberry
with q pedigree two varieties must be
crossed when in bloom. This process
may be continued with the progeny IN
definitely, and If a record is kept Of tire
parentage the result Is variety with
pedigree. The mere selection Of
plants Of variety, without regard to
both male and female parents, does
not establish pedigree. A pedigree
variety can only be established by
growing plants from seed. and a seed
ling with pedigree Of the class Of
plants which are propagated by diyi-
sion Is no better than one without. be-
cause the good qualities Of the ances-
tors may or may not be transmitted.
There is nothing in pedigree Of plants
Of this class which will help to fix and
hold the type as with plants grown
from seed, nor does a pedigree In the
case Of such plants insure better per

CROWS HELP FOX HUNTERS
They Follow the Alert Birds When
Reynard Il Roaming.

They FOLLOW tne Alert w men
Reynard II Roaming.
For some reason crows have seated
and mortal antipathy to foxes. AS
crows build their nests in trees, where
no fox can climb, and as an adult crow
can escape from any fox by flying, we
cannot understand why all crows seek
to harass and destroy every fox they
see. But we know this to be fact, as
we have watched the performances of
crows when foxes were near many
times.
We have seen crows watch for run
ming foxes on such occasions for hours
Mt time, and as soon as a fox emerg-
ed from the thick woods and let crow
get glimpse of Its body every bird
would hover over the running beast
and peck at it and scold it and show
marked evidence Of n bitter hatred.
Several fox hunters whom we know
make a practice Of following the alert
crows when the foxes are roaming
across back lots, claiming that the
birds are fully as reliable as hounds
and less trouble to maintain.-Bangor
