How Much lmpresarlos Have to Spend
on Entertainments.
Maurice Grau was once asked what
It cost him to raise the curtain on his
so-called nights OF the seven stars"
when he cast seven of his greatest
singers in LES Huguenots"
"Jtist $4,000" he answered But"
he added, the public paid $4,000 to
hear them
Figures like these give the outsider
some sort Of vague, feeting glance
into the luxury of expenditure which
cloaks itself behind the name of
grand opera, and allow him to under
stand why the conduct of a Metro
politan Grand Opera House can worry
two men successfully, into living
grave
The total annual outlay of money
alone in one such theatre, to say
nothing of the brains and energy Law
ished upon operative productions,
seems stupendous. 1t is estimated
that Heinrich Conried has an ex-
pense account of $4,000 a week
for season Of 20 weeks-a little
less than million dollars paid out
in salaries and other items exclusive
Of scenery, costumes, etc) from the
middle Of November till the middle Of
March For the same service Oscar
Hammerstein's new Manhattan grand
opera costs him approximately the
pretty price of s42,5O0 week for 20
weeks, or sS50,00O season.
Each of these men has over 500 peo-
pie in his employ. Seven perform
ances are regularly given every week,
Mr.. Conried even going to the extent
of transporting to Philadelphia for
one Of these performances his entire
cast, bag and baggage. In addition to
this. both houses give Sunday night
concert. Mr.. Hammerstein's orchestra
alone. composed of so pieces costs
him $4,000 a week. His scenery and COS
tunes for season foot up to nearly
quarter of a million dollars, and the
same item Of Mr.. Conreid's books
must be considerably more, for while
the Manhattan scenery is all made
here. in New York, that Of the Metro
rolitan is mostly built and painted in
Vienna and imported into this country
annually at decidedly heavy cost.
Even such a relatively minor expense
as a chorus assumes grand proper
lions In grand opera, for Mr.. Ham
merstein, with a chorus of lao people,
NAYS out about $500 weekly for theii
services, or s70,O 900 season, and Mr..
conried, with a smaller aggregation
of 100 voices, has chorus salary list
Of s25OO every Saturday night or $780,
GOO for the 20 weeks. And in the term
chorus" the ballet IS not included by
any means.
There are about 40 dancers in the
ballet. each getting S25 a week Then
there is the premier danseuse. who,
In Hammerstein's opera, gets $500

The cost OF the ballet therefore
amounts to some $4,000 for the sea-

Grading Eyes For High Prices.

AIN farmers keep at least few
chickens, and large per cent. keep
from / 90 to 800. II the poultry bust
ness on the farm were given the at
tentlon to which It is entitled, espe-
cially the egg producing part, and
that product were sent to market in
good saIable condition, we farmers
would add large amount to our al
ready good income from our poultry.
It would not be possible for one or
even fifty farmers to accomplish much
toward increasing the price we re-
ceive for eggs, but II all would be
careful to sell none but such as they
would be satisfied with II they were
to buy them, it would not be long be-
fore we would be getting better
prices. 1t is the sending or taking
of stale or dirty eggs to market that
is keeping down prices farmers are
getting for their eggs 1t is net the
right nor the profitable way to let
the gathering Of some Of the eggs go
until the day before we expect TO
market them, then have general
gathering Of the good, bad and doubt
full ones and then put them all into
the same crate OF basket. and expect
to exchange them for the very best
groceries at the store where we go
to trade.
II we should find a worm in some
dried fruit we exchanged these eggs
for we would almost feel that the
merchant must make the dried fruit
right or we would be obliged to try
another store, when in justice, wormy
fruit for some of the eggs taken to
our merchant would be about Air
exchange. l believe II the merchants
would take time to candle all the eggs
brought to them, and the farmers
wives understood they would receive
pay for Just the good, salable eggs
which they carried to the store, it
would not be very long before the
busy farmers wives would find time
to have a general gathering" oftener
than the day before they expect their
eggs to be taken to market.
When eggs are shipped they are
examined and graded; those passing
as extras" sell at a good price; then
the "fair to good" sell at a fair price,
hut from one to three cents below
she extras" and the eggs that only
grade "culls" sell from one to three
cents lower. Our grocer has to pay
according to what he can get from the
shipper, and the shipper has to pay
according to what the eggs will bring
on the market.
Now. it rests with the producer
whether he receives the prices paid
for extras, "fair to good or @eulls. f"
Some may think 1t is only matter Of
few cents on a dozen and hardly
worth the while: but IL one would
stop to consider what even one cent
more on each Of the many million
dozens Of eggs sold In one year would
amount TO, the additional proceeds
to farmers and producers from the
self-same source and without addi-
tional outlay OF money or labor, ex-
cept the adoption Of a better system
of performing the same work, am
sure the coming year would see fewer
eggs offered in the market which
would have to be graded "culls" and
sold for an inferior price.-Mrs. Ida
Wallace, in Poultry Keeper

Geese Hardlest Of Domestic FovIs.7

Geese Iufuieet OF llCntStic NONtet =
Geese are probably the hardest Of
all domestic fowls, requiring less at
tenton than hens, or even COWS and
little or no outlay for buildings, says
Government bulletin. The old
geese do well in all weather, with
nothing in the way of shelter but a
shed to run under, and usually they
disdain that. They do best where
they can get wet or marshy land and
in locations where hens and turkeys
will not thrive They are, however,
very different from other fowls, and
unless their nature Is understood and
their requirements met they are the
least profitable Of all stock.
To insure best results. geese for
breeding should be obtained In the
fall, not later than October, to enable
them to become acquainted with their
new surroundings before the breed
ing season. Geese are grazers and
too much grain is not desirable, as
the goslings do not thrive unless
they have an abundance OF grass,
The best ganders for breeding pur-
poses are stated 70 be African and
Brown China. These have given the
best results among the Rhode Island
hreeders The Toulouse geese lay
well, but often do not SIT Emblem
geese make better mothers Brown
and White China geese are profile
layers Eggs may be hatcned advan-
tageously under hens, but the gos-
/ lings should be at once taken away
from them They may be brooded
i Tor short time in outdoor brooier7
and after that confined IN houses ct
night.

The Piedmont Section For Dalrying.
The writer has been impressed for
some time with the peculiar advan-
tages possessed by the Piedmont sec
ton Of Georgia and the carolinas iof
the business Of dairying.
This section not only has superior
climate for the successful operation
OF dairies, but is peculiarly fitted FOR
the business by reason OF the poDula-
ton being all practically white peo-
pie who do their own work Other
sections Of the Cotton States are
largely made up Of big farms operated
to a great extent by negro tenants,
and while climatic conditions mar
kets, ETC., are favorable in the sec
tiopo populated so largely BY negroes.
It is doubtful If that race is yet
qualified to assume this character Of
work. Theirs IS the task of using
muscle and Drawn.
The Piedmont section ought to
grow as much cotton perhaps as it
now grows, but in addition to the cot
ton there ought also to be produced
equally as much dairy products. That
is to say, the income OF this section
can just as wei be doubled with The
present labor supply. We have the
soil, climate and a thoroughly quail
flied class Of laborers to take hold
Of the proposition and by the right
methods literally make two dollars
where only one Is now made
There are positively only two
things necessary in all the section
mentioned TO accomplish this very der
sirable state Of affairs First, the
people should make up their minds to
do it, and secondly, steadfast de-
termination to equip themselves in
the best manner for the work.
This equipment consists of a know
edge OF the principles OF breed
and feeding cows and a strict ad
ence to these principles DARYL

ANOTHER "RED" AFFAIR.

The attempt to take the lives of a score of policemen in New York during a mass meeting of the unemployed by an anarchistic fanatic is further evi. denee that stringent steps should be taken by the government to make the immigration laws more exclusive. Fol lowing so closely upon the murder of 8 priest in Denver and the attempt on the life of Chicago 8 police chief, the indignation throughout the country In each of these three cases, the slayer or would.be slayer has been in this country but short time and in two cases, the criminals came here from a country whore oppression is almost uni versal.
 If it be true, and we sincerely hope it s, that this government is preparing to take stern and speedy action against tho anarchists and banded murderers that infest the country, it will be Q crusade in which the sympathy of cv. cry law.abiding and worthy citizen, re. gardlcss of religion, politics, or whatnot, must join in spirit and wish fruitful progress

The PeCp.e's Forum
Socialists Protest Against Manner of Conducting Recent School Election.

To the Editor of the Silyer Belt:
 At the election for school trustee, held on March 2s, number of Amer ican citizens had the modification of being deprived of the constitutional right to vote, and few hundred oth- CT citizens were toil.ng in the mines ard were not allowed to exercise their right as citizens, though legally eligible to do so. Members of the working class have all paid their school tax through tho mine management, accord. ing to law. The law also reads that corporations must allow time 10 em- ployes to vote on election days.
 Secondly. on Page 593, Chapter 6, Section 47, Revised Statutes of Ari. aona, every person, male or female, of the age of 2l or over, who is citizen of the United States and who is a parent or guardian of child of school age residing in the district, or who has paid county or territorial school tax during the preceding year shall be en- titled to vote at any school district elec- tion. The dignity of American citizen ship has been assailed and the courtesy of the management of the Silver Belt in printing this protest from a body of citizens, has been factor in nullify. 1 ing steps taken to declare the election null and void. The franchise has al- ready been taken from a large percent age of the working class and laws have aided industrial barons to oppress the people, and other laws have been enact cd within the last two years, which has again restricted the franchise 10 citizens. in different states.
 The republic $ now selling citizen ship to aliens at s5; congress is now raising the initial price to Slo; actual average cost of citizenship is $30 to $40 The price of citizenship should not be money but character, and use fulness to society.
