Henrietta crossman.

The most remarkable play that has
been written in several years will be
presented by Henrietta Crossman and
her company at the Grand opera
house Wednesday, March /. 1t is
called "Anti-Matrimony' and was
written by that very clever American,
Percy MacHaye, whose Joan of Arc, :"
Mater and "Sapho and Phaon"
stamped him remarkable man and
a coming dramatist
Just as THE Servant in the House
and 1.-The Passing of the Third Floor
Back are intellectual plays, SO is
.AntiMatrimony' an intellectual play.
Miss Crossman produced this play last
May and Milwaukee and the entire
west proclaimed it, Then it was
taken into New York at the Garrick
theatre and has just finished an ex-
traordinarly successful run at the
Studebaker theatre, Chicago.
"Anti-Matrimony tells the story Of
a minister and his wife who are visit
ed by couple who are respectively
the brother and sister of the minister
and his wife. They tell the minister
and his wife that ara not married and
intend to preach the doctrine of Anti
Matrimony" in the parish. The situa-
ton is the more shocking from the
fact that the couple nave child. In
the course of the first act it develops
that the couple have been married
but have decided to keep it secret
in order that they may preach the
doctrine of what they call the mas
ters." When the minister and his
wife learn that their brother and sis
ter have really been married, the sit
uation quickly turns from tragedr to
comedy and the minister's wife re
solves that the way to cure them OF
their absurd ideas is for the minister
and his wife to be converted to the
| principles of '.Anti-Matrimony
4 So well does the minister's wife car
ry out the deception that the young
woman with the free love" ideas be-
comes insanely jealous Of her sister
i for the young disciple Of free love
4 falls desperately in love with his sis
! ter-in-law. This situation is humoret
by both the minister and his wife ant
4 the consequence is that the situa
/ lions are absurdly ridiculous.

CFOsSbred Fowls Poor POLICY

II one has pure breed Of fowls he
should by no means think of crossing
Will some other breed With mon
grels. OF course. it Is different. and
as there is nothing to lose something
may be gained. but with pure bred
fowls it is quite different. and from
the time we make the first cross we
have only mongrels 1t is much easier
to tear down than to build up. So
also it is easier to spoi! a pure bred
than to build it up. By all means get
pure bred fowls.
II you cannot afford to buy fowls
BUY at least a sitting Of eggs. and the
next year you will have start. Do
not keep hens and males indiscrimi-
nately. but each year select a few
choice fowls for the breeding pen, and
then you can hatch the chickens you
expect to get from eggs laid by the
hens running at large.
In this way your entire flock will
soon be the best. and each season you
can dispose of the culls. but unless
dressed for market we should prefer
to use them ON the table.

ESTABLISHING AN
ASPARAGUS BED.
Soil Must Be Well Cultivated
and Heavily MANFRED.

In selecting q place for asparagus
remember that it will need to be cut
every morning during its yielding sea-
son and that the one planting OF 1t
will likely last lifetime. So it is
essential to put it in d convenient
place. A row of 1t along the fence
in the garden will probably be con-
venient if the place is not already
occupied by rhubarb. 1t is very nee
eSsary that the soil for asparagus be
exceedingly rich. but in small plant
ing this can be made artificially.
Having selected the place. the prob
lem Is to put the soil in the best pos
sibe condition, both of fertility and
physical structure. Potatoes or some
other cultivated crop is good to pre-
cede asparagus. as the ground will be
we'll loosened up by it.
Heavy manuring is absolutely nee
essary. The ground cannot be too
rich for asparagus. Put on thick
coating Of manure, spade it in deeply
and then put on more and keep on
as long as it seems possible to make
it any richer. 1t is much more salts
factory to do this manuring at this
time. before the plants are started.
for after the plants are in there will
be difficulty in doing much heavy
manuring.
1t is not so essential to have a very
deep soil bed. as the asparagus roots
tend to grow horizontally instead or
down. But the first foot of the soil
should be spaded and raked repeat
edly so that it will be mellow. II this
is kept up from now till time to set
the plants next spring, it should be
in first class condition.

Shafter and turned over in bed.
The sun shining through a chink in
the closed blinds awakened him at
last, and another glance at the clock
assured him that three hours had melt
ed away. It was now 9. He bounced
out of bed and into his morning bath,
while his mind calculated how he
could divide the remainder Of the
short end holiday into working shifts
and squeeze out time enough to read
his newspaper.
He found a delicious breakfast
dining room, and as he ate he COM
planned bitterly of the noise Finley
had made that morning with the de-
tested lawn mower.
