Webster. Mrs. Campbell herself chose for New Haven The Notorious Mrs. Ellsworth" a role that is peculiarly Mrs. Campbell's own. It is well known that Pinero had Mrs. Campbell in mind when he conceived the character or Agnes Ebbsmith.
 Mrs Campbell is to begin a tour next week that has few if any precedents. When she returns to England she will haveg seen nearly every state in the Union, giving but a night or two in cities that claimed herand her company for weeks, and appearing in many places where she has never been seen before.
 Before returning to England Mrs. Campbell will produce here an English version by Arthur Symonds of Euripi- des tragedy, Electra" The rest of her tour will be devoted to the four greatest successes of her career and in roles which she confesses have stirred her sympathy the most, The Notori- ous Mrs. Ebbsmith,, The Second Mrs ] Tanqueray,n Mazda" and 'Hedda Gabler," On landing yesterday yestef- day one of the reporters whom Mrs. Campbell had likened to the irrepressi- ble waves of the sea, asked her her secret of her success. Luck, a lot of hard work, and perhaps some talent, she replied
 She should have added personality, a strangely fascinating personality, which no one has vet succeeded in truthfully analysing or describing.

The Aged Austrian Monarch.

With Francis Joseph will, in all
human probability, pass away the
last monarch who, living and dying,
has worn on his brow the dual crown
of st. Stephen and that of the an
Gent German-Roman Empire. And
with him will also vanish the most
picturesque figure amopg the rulers
of our day. During the sixty years
Of Queen Victoria S reign the nations
over which she held sway passed
through momentous stages of their
development, and to be Briton
meant something very different at
her death from what it had mean
when, in 1887, she, a blushing,
blooming maid of eighteen, had
first tasted the sweet and bitter of
royalty. The parallel between her
and Francis Joseph holds good in
more ways than one. But with the
sole exception of France, no country
has undergone such striking, thor
ough changes of recent time as has

els Joseph. From Francis Joeph

Plant A Grove Next Year.

We hope our readers will not
think we are sdaffy" for. insisting
$50 strenuonsly and continuously on
each farmer putting out an acre of
some kind of forest trees next year.
Farmers are loath to spend money
on an enterprise from which they
cannot expect any return for eight
or ten years, and must in addition
to the first investment give it more
or less care and attention.
We were convinced more than
twenty years ago that the time would
come when farmers would need
fence posts and convenient timber
for fuel and other purposes as we'll
as protection from the winter blasts.
Our conviction has grown stronger
from year to year. There is every
indication-in fact, it is quite GER
tain-that at the present rate at
which we are using lumber, to say
nothing about it's increase, in the
next thirty years the United States
will become practically a treeless
country unless farmers plant trees.
The railroads as usual are wide
awake and are planting trees very
largely for a furture supply of ties
and fence posts. The planting
made by some of the Kansas rail-
roads about the time we made our
paintings have proved a very prof.
table investment, the catalpa groves
yielding from two to five dollars an
acre rent, net, including five per
cent interest on the investment at
the beginning and from year to
year, which is quite as much as the
average farmer secures from his in
vestment in land.
Cultivated in other crops, the land
unless well managed, loses fertil-
ity. In timber it is constantly gain
ing. The question of fence posts
will be always with us, and we are
very sure that the farmer who will
follow our suggestions in this mat
ter will be making as profitable an
investment as he has ever made on
the same amount of expenditure.
We speak about this now because
there is yet time to locate your post
grove. Plow the land this fall as
deep as you can plow it, and if a
subsoiler is available it would be
well to subsoil. This deep plowing,
however, should be done in the fall
and not in the spring. We shall
take up this question from time to
time during the winter, because we
believe we are serving the best in
terests of our readers, upon whom
we must depend for our prosperity.
The kind of trees to plant can be
considered in the winter; but mean
while let us suggest to the boys
that no catalpa seed should 60 to
waste. 1t is ready to pick now,
and the sooner it is picked and put
away very carefully for ths winter
the better. A little catalpa seed
will go long ways. Select only
from trees fifteen or twenty years
old, erect in form, and thrifty.
These are quite certainly the catal.
pa speciosa, which is the only va
riety Of catalpa you should plant.

which possesses practically no roads
This region, lying between St. Ome1

people use skilfs, not unlike Vene-

glide silently to field and market.

Poultry Notes.

Thanksgiving turkeys should b,
dry picked. The scalded ones dc
not look as nice or keep as well.
Plenty of yellow corn will fatter
a healthy fowl or chick without th,
trouble incident to confning the
bird.
Do not keep over any but healthy
vigorous stock. whether it is old o,
young; for unhealthy, weak or de.
crepit fowls are never profitable.
A duck consumes more food thar
a hen but the food required by the
duck is much less expensive. Whole
cracked grains should not be fed
more frequently than four times 4
week.
A healthy, vigorous, well-built,
pure bred young male is worth five
dollars of anyone's money to run
with a flock Of mongrels. The i'm.
provement in next seasons chicks
will be surprise.
The longer you keep the surplus
males and females which you do not
intend to keep through the winter,
the less profit you will make on the
seasons business, for from now
forward the price goes down as the
cost of keeping them goes up.
Do not let the chickens eat with
the old towels. The amount Of food
that the young ones require for
proper development will fatten the
old fowls beyond usefulness, except
for the table. This applies to all
varieties except those of the Medi-
terranean breeds.
