NEW YORK, Dec. 24-Although it is
Christmas week and there are shop
some consider shopping an obligation
to occupy the time of theatergocrs,
the leading playhouses snow a good
record of attendance.
This week New York is making the
acquaintance at the Hacket theater
of Cameo Kirby, by Booth Tarking
ton and Harry Leon Wilson, which has
created such a sensation. 1t is a play
of New Orleans in the early 30's of the
last century. The authors have writ
ten it around the character of a real
flesh and blood gentleman gambler of
the same name as that used in the
title Dustin Farnum has the leading
role.
The play was put on in Chicago early
last spring, and has been running
since, in which time it has played the
City and touring to San Francisco.

kin, Gordon tombstone, William H.

SORGHUM or roots A patch of sorghum
is an excellent crop for the dairyman
to grow.
It is not practicable to feed all cows
the same. For instance, if the ten
dency of one animal to convert her
food into flesh rather than milk, she
should be fed a narrow ration, say
one pound of protein to five of carbo-
hydrates On the other hand, if the
tendency of the cow is to run entirely
to milk, she should be fed more of the
carbohydrates or flesh and fat produc-
ing foods.
During the summer months, when
the COWS are on grass, especially dur
ing the latter part of May and June
the COWS make the greatest profits.
This is due to the fact that the cow at
this time of the year gets an abundant
supply of succulent foot which would
be termed by the scientist a balanced
ration, as it contains the right amount
of nutrients necessary for the largest
production Of milk.
If this same condition should be con-
tinued throughout the year, the av-
erage production per cow would at
least be doubled. Therefore, the
farmer should strive to duplicate sum-
mer feeds during the winter months.
The successful dairyman realizes
this and endeavors to bring the con-
ditions of June to his COWS in January.
He builds warm barns, keeps the ice
out of the drinking water with tank
heaters, mixes different feeds together
to get his cows to eat more, and builds
silos in order that they may have
green feed in winter.
Feeds are high in price, and in or
der to make profit it will be neces-

PUBLIC HIGHWAYS HERE AND
ELSEWHERE.

We don't know how many thousand
doliars have been spent on the public
roads OF Brazos county but we dc
know that the roads are now in almost
- bad condition as they would be
u nothing had been spent. This
groves that the greater part OF the
road money heretofore has been mis-
spent. This Is not reflection on the
county administration past or pres
emit, for Brazos Is as well fixed In re
Gard to roads as most OF the counties
n Texas and better than many. The
Raleigh, "a. c. Progressive Farmer
estimates that In the United States
$4,000. 900 Is spent annually In the
construction OF public highways. two
thirds of which IL wasted. This enor-
nous waste Is the result Of lack OF
proper information and experience In
road building.
As already announced and common.
ted on by The Eagle. Judge Board and
the commissioners Of Brazos county
have ordered complete outfit OF the
latest and best machinery for road
building to be delivered early In Jan
nary. Z, is to be hoped. therefore.
that another Christmas viii not find
business paralyzed by mud blockade.
IN this connection we quote sugges-
ton from the Progressive Farmer:
In planning the building OF high
ways n good idea is To make the coun-
~ town the central place from which

teries: then build crossroads ms feed

Notwithstanding the efforts of the

public confidence is by no means re-
stored by the information of a new
cabinet. an excellent impression has
been produced by the appointment of

strengthened by the nomination OF
Nemduh Pasha, another able Adrian
ople officer, to command the first di-
vision at Constantinople. Edhim

of the barracks in the city and exhor-
ted the soldiers to obey their officers.
They were well received and heartily
cheered
Porte circles are extremely dis
quieted by news from Saloniki and
Monasti, where the influence of the
committee of union and progress Is
strong. officers OF the porte have re-
ceived kilograms from these sections
demanding the re-establishment OF
the status quo, failing which, the
committee leaders threaten to march
on Constantinople with the entire
third army corps, whose officers are
now in communication with the sec
ond army corps with view to coop
Grafton. The latter corps, however,
recently opposed the committee. The
impression prevails here that the
third army corps is ignorant OF the
real object of Tuesdays rising and
may desist from Its warlike inten-
tions when it realizes that the parlia-
,,ant ond tho rnuatitujpn have hepn
maintained
