"HAppYLAND."

A delighted audience sat through two acts of the new comic opera, "Happyland." as presented by that popular comedian, DeWolf Hopper. and a very clever and interesting company. in Polls theaterl last night. During one part of the performance MT Hopper tried to explain to the audience in one of his happy and witty speeches that some of the com pany had been stranded in Pough- keepsie and if there were any faults to be found with the entertainment to attribute them to the lack of num- bers While the audience might have noticed a little weakness in the chorus, there was nothing lacking in the individual work of the members nor In the presentation throughout It was one of the best things we have been treated to this season and the star himself was never in better humor nor could he have done more for one of his appreciative audiences in New York than he did for those present last evening. He was in ex-
 
 than ever, and when he stated in his remarks to the people before him that he had been given the old re- quest to recite Casey at the Bat" they applauded him to the echo. He has given this so many times, and in this city, too. that 1t did seem as though he could not improve on prior occasions, but, like all his work in the opera, he extended himself In even this bit of entertainment and "casey at the Bat" was reclted as It never has been before. His songs were all of the right mellowness to be catchy. and in his duet with Will liam Danforth, How Love Flow ers." he could not satisfy the de- mands for encores Aside from his work there was another pleasing fea- ture and that was that the people cast in other parts had opportunities to make distinct successes. and they did 1t. There was our old comic opera friend. Billy Wolf, in the char acter of Sphnixus, the confidential friend and adviser of Mir Hopper, In his character of the king of Elysia, William Danforth as the king of AL truria. with a makeup as grotesque and funny as was his work in the opera; Joseph Phillips as the crown prince of Forthnia. John Hendricks as captain of hussars. These include l all the men stars. who were all pleasing in their solos and other | work Then there was Marguerite | Clark as Sylvia, daughter of the king of Elysia. as pretty and petite and as charming and sweet a little bun- de Of fun and music as has graced the stage fin some days.

According to the twentieth annual re-
port Of the Iowa State Dairy Commits
sioner, H. R. Wright, Iowa shipped out
Of the State in 1905, using round num-
bers, 01,0OO,O00 pounds Of butter, and
in 1906. 9s,1s5,Oo0 pounds. In 1906
Woodbury. County shipped the largest
number of pounds, amounting to 6,342,-
600 pounds. The county that shipped
the second largest amount was Polk
County, viz. 5,118,0OO pounds Dur
ing the last seven years there has
been gradual increase in the num-
Der of pounds of butter shipped out of
the State. In 1900 shipments amount
ed. to 71,719,OOO pounds, and In 1905
to 9S,1S5,000 pounds. From the stand
point of butter shipments, therefore,
the State of Iowa Is growing.
In 1905, 1870 hand separators were
used in the State of Iowa, while in
1906, $3.50 were in use. In 1905, 49,
7uS,0OO pounds Of butter were made in
the State of Iowa us compared with
81 ,-J2, 600 pounds in 1905. In the same
manner the number of creamery pa
irons has increased from $1,000 in 1905
to 91,s67 in 1906.

Republican Row In Ohio.


The lineup for pitched battle be-
tween the forces Of Foraker and Of
Roosevelt in Ohio is already distinct
and complete enough to make the Buck
eye State an exceedingly interesting
spot on the map Of presidential politics.
Foraker's move in appealing for gen.
eral primaries to select convention
which shall nominate the Republican
candidate for the Senate as we'll as all
candidates for State offices is the first
blow In struggle which. result as it
may, is bound to have far-reaching eff
fects upon the fortunes Of the Repub-
lican party.
If Secretary Elmer Dover, of the Re-
publican National Committee, is cor
rect in his conclusion that Foraker and
Dick have complete control of the Re
publican organization in Ohio, the fight
between the factions is likely to be
vastly more bitter than it was in 1905
when the Republican candidate for
Governor was beaten.
1t Is by no means certain that the
well-perfected machine operated by the
two Ohio Senators can Withstand the
onset Of new machine which the ad-
ministration Is building up with Con-
gresham Burton as chief engineer. If
1t cannot, Foraker, at least, is at the
end Of his political career, and the Ohio
delegation in the Republican national
convention next year will be instructed
for Taft.
1t is not to be wondered at that the
contest has thrown Ohio Republicans
into ferment. At this distance 1t
seems to have made Ohio very doubt
full State in the presidential election

mates who control such organizations.
Mr.. Carnegie alone In 1904 said he
would give one million dollars to elect
Mr.. Roosevelt and Republican Con-
gress, with perhaps the promise de-
clared or implied that the steel sched-
ules Of the tariff that permit the Steel
Trust to pay interest on bonds and
watered stock from which he draws
his enormous income, shall remain I'M
touched and in fact be perpetuated.
The tainted money of the life insur-
ance companies was not lacking to-
ward the same Republican victory, and
those corporations were In the control
of the frenzied flnanciers of Wall
street, who also control the Industrial
corporations. The only tariff bill In
troduced by Republican member of
the Ways and Means Committee of the
late Congress was to increase the pres
ent rates 25 per cent as the maximum
rates and keep the present rates as the
minimum rates. That is what Con-
gresham McCleary proposed as the
ultimatum Of the Protective Tariff
League, and as be was defeated for re-
election by his outraged constituents,
the administration has appointed this
lame duck" to be Second Assistant
Postmaster General, apparently as
reward for his services toward revis-
ing the tariff higher.
What do those Republican voters
who were promised tariff reform by
the candidates of their party for Con-
gress think of the prospect2 Will they
accept more promises and still vote
for those, who will perpetuate the tar
iff protected trusts in their plundering
through high prices?

Potatoes and Manure.

Manure that has been we'll decom-
posed can be used in connection with
ashes, potash salts, finely ground bone
sor superphosphate at time of applica-
ton on the soil. Potatoes are very DIFF
ferent in their mode of growth from
corn and are expected to keep well dur
ing the winter. 1t Is not necessary to
mention how and when potatoes should
be planted, in a detailed manner for
every farmers experience has taught
him how such work should be per-
formed, but there are certain methods
of manuring that have been in custom
for years which would be changed II
the farmer would consider the needs
and requirements Of his crop while 1t
is expected to do what he wishes. The
surest plan, then, is to experiment on
small plots, in several ways, and each
grower will then better understand the
condition of his soil. Formerly 1t was
supposed that an application of lime
would benefit the potato crop, but in
recent years 1T has been discovered that
lime favors the condition for scab, and
that to avoid disease great care should
be taken in procuring seed from local.

COLORADO LEADS IN DEER.
They outnumber the Cattle, OWN
to Rirlds Game

fhey Outnumber the Cattle, Owing
to Rigid Game Law.
Colorado has more wild deer now
than any other State in the Union.
There are as many wild deer in this
State as cattle. The laws protecting
them from the reckless and greedy slay-
ers have made great increase in their
number and hunters who have visited
their haunts this season make the most
enthusiastic reports.
w. s. Kincaid, general superintend.
ent of the fish hateheries, killed one of
the biggest bucks ever brought to Den.
yer. The animal weighed 2T5 pounds.
There are eight points on one of Its
horns and seven points on the other.
G. L. McFadden, the taxidermist who
mounted the head, said 1t was the
largest he ever saw.
II. II. ZeiE, who just arrived from a
hunting trip, said he saw over 200
bucks in the mountains about seventy
five miles northeast of Newcastle. He
went past the Sleepy Cat mountains. In
Rio Blanco, Routt and Garfield coun-
ties the hunters say they never saw so
many deer before. In 1899, when the
body of the game law went into effect,
the deer were scarce because they had
not been protected. Under the first law
the open season lasted nearly three
months and this was not protection
enough. But in 1908 an amendment
was made shortening the open season
to sixteen days, as 1t stands to-day. A
hunter is allowed to kill only one deer
and that must be buck with horns
and at least one year old.
There is no open season at all on elk
and they are increasing rapidly in num-
bers too.-Denyer Times.
