The CIimax" Coming

Taking the initiative in a field that
has never been touched heretofore by
other playwrights, Joseph NJ. Weber's
comedy drama, 1.-The Climax" by
Edward Locke, is said to arouse an
atmospheric influence that that'makes
it delightfully."- enjoyable.
1t is declared that the play in
depth of conception, originality, in
tensity and wholesome humor, go as
far beyond anything produced by
other playwrights. The Climax" is
highly endorsed by the New York
critics, who were unanimous in por-
claiming it the best thing of the sea-
son. The piece will be seen for the
first time at the Colonial Theatre,
Monday, January 2.

The following pathetic and UNIQUE

In spirit of fun he assumes the
position of a coachman, hence the
title of the play-"The Man on the
Box. The occupant of the vehicle
is in truth the young mans sweet
heart, but she is unaware of the
identity of the coachman. When he
assists her from the carriage he
kisses her several times, which, of
course, is very rude in a coachman,
but that's the starting point of the
fun.
This provides the ground work of
the humorous romance and, Judging
from what has been said of the COM
edy, it is one of the most entertain
ing as we'll as amusing that has been
offered to the public for several
years. Probably more than 5000. 900
people have read Mr.. McGrath's
novel and should be familiar with the
text of the play, as the dramatist is
said to have adhered closely to the
original plot.
Better, even, than ever" seems
to be the critical and popular ver-
dict upon this seasons production
of The Merry Widow" which
comes to the Colonial Theatre on
January ID, by Henry w. Savage.
Wherever this queen of operettas
has appeared there has followed
this declaration and with it an en-
thusiastic statement that the Lehar
masterpiece itsef is no whit less
delightful and inspiring than the
day it first saw the glare of the
footlights. One thing is certain, the
delicious melodies, Intoxicating
rhythms and brilliant gayety of The
Merry Widow" do not lose by repe-
tition. Indeed, it is not until the
third or fourth hearing that one be-
gins to realize the manifold charms
of the operetta.

not relish the thin paste.
Don't keep more than one male bird
to a small flock unless you have some
separately confined. Warning cocks
knock the egg record.
Don't forget that excitement in the
basket.
Don't change feed suddenly. A new
ration fed point blank brings sorrow to
the chicken crank.
Don't lose your temper when writ
ing to a complaining customer. The
man with cool and level head seldom
regrets what ne has said.
Don't join the pessimists. They are
a cross of fool. fossil. knocker, blocker.
5erker and shirker. With all their
prophecy of i'll the wheels of progress
spin round still.
Don't expect eggs in cold weather
if you do not house and feed your hens
properly. A frozen hen with hungry
look can't swell the cash in your bank

time by shape and comb? Just try
your rigid rules in the trap nest.
Your egg type may there get a swipe,
and your hen just finished right may
get a slight, for there you sometimes
see the perfect shape beaten by a foul
formed cackler-fowls in egg condi-
ton not in it, red combs tagging far
behind; the pale and fat mammies
and squawkin' skinfints worrying the
referee to decide which beat the rest
first.
Trap nesting will often show that the
first pullet to lay is not often the con-
tinuous performer and that hens with
bad records in December, January and
February seldom catch up.
The trap nest reveals your best lay
ers, and you are able to breed your
males and females from the best. Thus.
with a pedigreed egg strain on both
sides, by mating such birds you are
sure to get a strain that brings great
gain.

FEATHERS AND EGesHELLs.

To save time in feeding birds at a
London zoo electric lights are turned
on before daylight, and the birds,
thinking it's sunrise, get busy. In
New York this plan is used to fatten
ducks when in a rush to finish them.
They are fed several meals at night.

old it is generally six feet high. Some

In a season.
A hens egg contains $50 grains of
water, 100 grains of fat, 100 grains of
lime, 80 grains of albumen, 26 grains of
sugar and 10 grains of ash. When all
these are heated together in a hay

The York (Pa.) Ministerial a~ssocia-
ton conducted a successful crusade
against turkey rafies during the holt
days. Its contention was based on
two points-the rattle is a form of gam
bling prohibited by law, and the VIII le-

bouts so advances the price that they
are almost prohibitive.

bill for destroyed grain is 100000, 600,

on breeding good birds as they do on
fixing up old culls to cheat with at
shows they would not figure in the
rogues' gallery as sneak thieves of

ENGLISH sPARROTS STEALING L
numbers can be effected by using a
shallow box not less than four feet
square. open on one side and covered
with woven wire on the other. One
side of this trap rests ON the ground.
while the opposite side is supported
by a stick eighteen inches long. Near
the upper end of this stick is attached
a long cord, and between the top of
it and the edge of the trap is placed
a chip. BY setting the trap over bait
and pulling the cord from a sheltered
point of observation when a flock of
sparrows is beneath it numbers Of
them may be caught. Instead of the
box described above. by which the
birds are taken alive, an old door or
similar device may be employed as a
deadfall.
Sparrows are accustomed to feed III
close focks. and when thus assembled
a large number can be killed by a
charge of No. 10 shot.
Many persons will be surprised to
learn that the English sparrow is good
to eat. Mr.. Dearborn says the bird
has been eaten for centuries in Eu-
rope. In America ii * served often
under the disguise Of the reed bird.
Farmers who shoot or trap large num-
bers of the birds will find them very
palatable food.

important advance in agricultural ma
chinery. Though gasoline is more cost

The English sparrow seems to be the

venting the increase of sparrOwS in a
locality is to destroy their nests at in
tervals of ten or twelve days through
out the breeding season. By a con-
certed and continued movement to de-
strOy every nest after the eggs are laid
English sparrows in any locality may
be gradually reduced without reSOrting
to shot or poison.
Preliminary to the following de-
structive measures sparroWs should
be baited until they are attached to

Seeds. grain or waste from the table,
if supplied regularly, will 500 estab-
fish a feeding place. If a general cam
paign is to be undertaken enough such
feeding places should be maintained
to attract to them practically all the
English sparrOws in the neiGhbOr-
hood. This can easily be done in win
ter when food is scarce. After thus
batting the sparrows they may be
trapped or shot.
Traps alone are inadequate to eXter-
