eade's well-known French domestic
drama. Papa Lebonnard," in which
that sterling Italian actor, Ermete
Novelli. scored such success in a
year ago during his long engage
ment at the Lyric theater, New
York. The English adaptation has
been made by Mrs Kate Jordan Yer
milye and that ever popular and fin
ished ar list, Henry - Dlxey, will be
shortly seen a. Polls to-morroy at
ternoon and evening in the stellar
role of the lovable old clockmaker.
The story of Papa Lebonnard is one
. of particular interest all the way
through from the raise until the
final curtain OH the last act. Early
/ in the play we find this endearing
old character as a supplemented
clockmaker who. still sticks TO his
work-room. in spite of the fact that
he has amassed an independent for
tune. He Is under the ban and Is
ever and always yielding to his
would-be aristocra ic wife. whose So
cial ambitions have led her to try
and marry their daughter, Jenne,
who Is simple and docile like her
father, TO worthless count. But
finally the lovable old man has his
own way and rules his own domes-
tic affairs as he thinks best. Mr.
Dixey is said to have the hes role
of his whole career as the old clock
maker and Mr. Sire has surrounded
him with capable company which
includes Miss Marie Nordstrom.

MOTORING ON THE FARM.
Big Machines for Crop Work--Runa-
bouts for Going to Market.

The saving effected by the mod
ern powerful gasolene engine on the
1 farm is estimated to be from 20 to
SO per cent over horse, man or steam
power. When not running the en-
CINE is not consuming fuel, and its
keep through the winter when in
storage is nothing. It does not eat
| its head off and it takes very little
storage space.
Manufacturers have made special
! lines of farm engines in various
sizes, ranging from to 100-horse
power, both for stationary work and
portable use. Upward of $4,000
/ such engines have been sold to
American farmers in the last two
| years, says Casters Magazine, and
the demand for the present year will
exceed any past record.
| There is gasolene farm engine
adapted for dragging heavy gangs of
ploughs across long fields, followed
by harroWs, cultivators, seeders and
harvesters. In fact, the land can be
titled, planted and the crops har-
vested with machine of this sort
without the aid of a single horse
and with very little fired help,
In the great northwest the por-
table gasolene threshing outfits are
conspicuous features at the harvest
season They are much lighter than
the old steam threshing plants, are
self propelling and on rubber tires,
so that they can be run easily and
quickly from farm to farm.
The farm help problem is thus
being partly solved in the great
northwest. Even in the new north
west of Canada scores of these ma
chimes have been put in operation
in the last year. The great wheat
crop could not be harvested and
threshed without such appliances.
The gasolene motor is no less i'm
portant in marketing products. The
modern touring cars and runabouts
sold 10 farmers are for utility first
and pleasure afterward.
By their aid one farmer says that
he realized $500 more in one season
for his articles than he had sold
them in the old way, taking the mar
ket prices as they varied from day
to day. Another farmer having a
lot of fancy poultry made in one
trip SIS more than the regular prof
its through rushing load to mar
ket during day of high prices.
The farmers wives and daughters
have learned to operate the ma
chimes, and it is not unusual to see
them peddling farm produce from
automobiles in many of the western
towns and cites. Some of them run
in from 10 to 20 miles and sell their
produce before noon and get back
again in the early afternoon.
