| women of the stage simply lavish
| money upon dressmakers.
Anna Held had some trouble some
time ago with a Chicago house which
had furnished her with some of the
stage dresses that she and the mem
| bers of her company employed in the
piece Mile. Napoleon" One item was
a parasol that cost $3.50.
The men on the stage dress expen-
sively, but of course not as expensive
ly as the women. Whoever plays Ber-
tie in the stock company revivals OF
the old Robson and Crane piece, 1.-The
fore he is through paying for the
clothes. For that part, like so many
others, is a dress part and requires
careful attention to make any impress
sion at all. The worst about the Ber-
tie part is that one of the best suits is
torn to pieces during the play.
As an indication of the carelessness
with which clothes are used, if an ar
tistic effect can be produced, the dan
cling number that Julian Mitchell put
in Lew Fields show About Town
this year is a case in point. In this
number the dancers tear costly dresses
from one another and the wreck is
something fierce.
In Grace Georges play. Clothes
there appear this year besides the star
four of the best dressed women on the
stage today. One of them is Anne
Sutherland, we'll known to Chicago
AUDIENCES through ner starring ven
lures at the Columbus and the Thirty
first street theater. The gowns that
these four women wear in the play
cost $4,000 in the aggregate Seven
hundred and fifty dollars for a gown
that is worn in only one act is going
some.
But musical comedy discounts this
ten to one. In several musical shows
gowns worth several hundred dollars
each have been put on show girls who
get $25 or $50 q week, and have been
worn, say, during only one song or one
finale.
Mrs. Langtry always has been
modish dresser on the stage and Mrs.
Patrick Campbell followed suit. But
back of both of them was Mrs. James
Brown Potter. who invented the idea
of representing different emotions
through the wearing of fine gowns of
different hue. OF course long before
Mrs. Brown Potter's time white meant
innocence on the stage, and black and
red villainy. and gray misfortune. and
those meanings were recognized by all
actresses who dressed for parts in
which any of those conditions were
represented.

VIRGIN RIVER WELL TAPS
HOT WATER, THEN OIL

According to a message that reached
James r. Clark yesterday something new
has happened in the Virgin River oil
drilling through twenty-five feet of a
strata charged with hot water, in the
Mckenzie well, the drill had gone TWEEN
ty-fiVe feet through a lime formation
into an Oil-bearing strata
This is the well in which it was re-
ported several days ago that an oil
bearing strata had been cut, so the IRE
sumption is that sinking has continued
and that the second oil strata has been
reached What significance, if anv. at
taches to the tapping of a hot water
channel or strata, is not known. Addi-
tional news from the well and the field
will be likely to be received during the
present week and there is reason TO be-
lieve that several wells will be heard
from.

A PAYING FARM PROPOSITION.

One of the best paying farm PROPOSE
lions an ambitious man can take hold or
is cattle feeding either for market or for
milk.
Now that agricultural science has CIV
en- us an insight into the actual princi-
pies which lie at the foundation OF the
business it is a mere matter OF applying
them in daily practice to get good profit
for ourselves. Feeding corn meal, or
any combination of feeds, won't neces-
sarily make beef or produce milk Your
steer or cow has got to digest and use
it's ration or the manure heap Will be
the richer and you the poorer: In other
words, the simple act of feeding doesn't
always produce results.
Here is where farm science comes to
the rescue. The new idea on feeding
tells us, first of all, that the steer OF
COW is like machine, and that the Ieea

your steer or cow, as machines, don't

That u.s. animal digestion must be abso-
lutely right if the greatest gain is to be
made.
But it's impossible to keep the stom-
ach and intestines working right when
they are constantly forced beyond nat
ural limitations and that is what every
feeder of live stock is doing when feed
ing for market or for milk.
From which it follows that anything
capable of continuing the digestive func-
ton in healthy activity during the weeks
or months in which the rafting PROCESS
is going on, will solve the problem TO
the feeders satisfaction.
Experiment has proved conclusiveiy
that a preparation containing true tonic
elements, blood builders and nitrates
(Which are we'll known as cleansing the
system) is an actual necessity in the
cattle business. In fact, the greatest

health and stuff with rich food for pc
riod of months as to expect your STALL
fed steer or cow to do so.
in the cattle feeding business-success
depends on it. Your animals must be
toned up and strengthened by these

ers. like Professors Winslow, Quitman
and FINLEY Dun, recommend as benef-
cial. Give it to the horses It Will make raRe

SWISS COLONIZATION PLANS.

A Seattle land cruiser and surveyor
has located a colony site at the head
of Hood Canal, in Mason county, COM
prising 100000 acres of land, to cost
nearly $1,500,000, on which a large
Swiss colony will settle. The land is
mainly from the Port Gamble Mill Co.
and the Weyerhausers, who will re-
move the timber during the next four
years, when the colonists will come
by sailing vessels around Cape Horn.
Each colonist will receive 20 acres OF
land, and few townsite lots. The in
dustries will be manufacturing as we'll
as agricultural. A small colony is in
progress near Spokane, and several
have been established elsewhere.

GOOD QUALITIES OF NORWAY
POPI AR

Tree planters throughout the north
ern portion of the middle west have
had brought to their attention lately
the extraordinary value of the Norway
poplar, a near relative of the common
cottonwood, which possesses several
fine qualities.
The origin of this cottonwood is
shrouded in mystery. 1t bears no cot
ton and is reproduced entirely from
cuttings. The tree grows very rap
idly, straight and lean, and it is said
that the bark never scales or cracks.
The wood is straight-grained and suit
able for lumber. 1t splits easily, sea-
sons quickly, and makes excellent fuel.
In Minnesota the Norway poplar has
been known to grow fifty feet high
with a diameter of seventeen inches
in fourteen years. 1t makes a good
shade tree, retaining it's leaves until
late in the autumn, and on account OF
it's rapid growth should prove very
desirable for wind-breaks and shelter
belts So far as is known at present
it is perfectly hardy and will grow
under a variety of soil and moisture
conditions, responding quickly by in
creased growth to cultivation and care.
However, it will be some time before
Norway poplar will be available for
widespread planting, as cuttings OF the
true variety are very scarce and hard
to obtain.
