 at Polls on Friday, October II,
 The Time, the Place and the Girl, v whose recent success at the La Sale theater, Chicago, the Fremont and :, Colonial theaters of Boston and Wal lacks of New York, will be sufficient introduction to the people of Water bury and on which the critics have stamped that long looked for phrase "a real success" The skill of Ar thur Deagon as a comedian has never before portrayed to such great ad- vantage as in the character of Hap f py" Johnny Hicks, square young gambler, with a fund of sound phil
 osophy which he expresses in epi-
 grammatic slang. The time, the Place and the Girl' is not musical comedy, but a music play. The piece could be played without music, but
 MT Towards pretty songs make it doubly attractive. There are a dozen
 musical numbers in the play, but
 they are all fitting and descriptive

 Day." A beauty chorus of fifty,
 which, under the able direction of
 Ned Wayburn, assists in the rendi-
 tion of the scores, is one of the de- cided hits of the piece. Prices 25
 cents to $1.50. THE GAMBLER OF THE WEST" 7"
 The Gambler of the Vest" which
 will be the offering at Polls this af- i. .ternoon and evening, is what it's name implies, sensational melo- drama of the erstwhile wild and
 woolly frontier. Its time is when
 miners and cowboys lived the rough life beyond the limits of effective
 government and Indians were still making periodical excursions on the
 warpath. Its story deals with the
 adventures of young girl who goes into the country from the east to search for a lost brother of tender age who was taken from her father
 and mother by the Indians some years before. Popular prices.

A prominent planter recently had
occasion to visit some of his holdings
in southern Arkansas. The land was
situated several miles from a railroad,
and it was necessary to finish the
journey in a buggy. SO he took a.
friend with him and started out.
After traversing several miles Of
sparsely settled country, they came
upon a farmer blowing corn on the
side Of hill. The planter, wishing
to appear civil to his neighbors,
stopped his horse and yelled at the
man, who came to the fence, hopping
his face with red bandana.

Badger Cabbage Are World Famous.

Badger SdDpd9c ATC Voi'u o''oeo'
Cabbage has carried another big
bunch of Badger state fame clear over
to India The other day a newspaper
correspondent received a postal card
from Lieut.. Col. E. Hudson, superin-
tendent of the central prison, Alfalfa
bad, Naini district, India. The card
read: Il have read with great inter-
est your article Cabbage Growing in
Wisconsin and shall be glad if you
will kindly tell me the name of the
firm in Holland from whom you i'm
port your seed" After reading the
same story of WiscOnsin's wonderful
success in producing cabbage, w. l..
Jenkins, Ogden, Utah, writes: i
would be willing to pay good round
sum for a pure strain OF the seed A
year ago wide publicity was given TO
reports showing the wonderful growth
of the cabbage interests along the
Milwaukee road between Racine and
Burlington. Since that the subject of
seed has been agitating a great many
minds, as it is shown, in both this and
other countries. Leonard Vaughn of
tells of the efforts of seedmen to i'm
port and distribute pure cabbage
seed in this country. Mr.. Vaughn says
that American seedsmen look to that
little point of land in the Netherlands,
between the North sea and Zuider
Zee, to furnish them with what is
known as the short stem Holland cab
bage seed. Mr.. Vaughn says that
great quantities of this seed is sent
to the state of Washington, and from
the growth in that state is produced a
deal of the cabbage seed that is plant
ed in Wisconsin and other localities
The growers in and around Union
Grove and other Wisconsin shipping
points, however, claim that the seed
they use is imported from Holland so
that all agree that this is good kind
to plant. 1t is good thing to inquire
closely into the quality of the seed to
be planted There has been a great
deal of trouble from the stem rot, and
MI. duSuu say tndl he DSlleNtS II W
be in the seed Reputable seedsmen
recommend the seed that from expert
ence is least susceptible of this stem
rot. 1t is claimed that the big tracts
OF land on the south side of Chicago
that formerly were given to the growth
of cabbage no longer are titled for
that purpose. The rot got into the
product and killed it out 1t is claimed
that it is possible to cabbage out"
tracts of land, and acres that once
We're sown to this plant in time be-
came unfit for this kind of crop.
Prices Of seed vary greatly. The
Washington seed grown from the Ho-
land or Dutch winter is sold for from
three to four dollars a pound. 1t used
to be that pure strains of cabbage seed
sold for Sl5 pound From one locali-
ty in Wisconsin the production of
cabbage increased in ten years from
II to 25O carloads that was shipped to
nearly half the states of the union, a
deal of it going to Texas and other
southern states and to Mexico.
