WONDERFUL STAGE EFFECTS
IN 1.-THE BOHEMIAN GIRL

The big spectacular production of
Balfe's masterpiece. THE Bohemian
Girl" which the Aborn Opera COM
pany announce as their browning
effort, as producers of grand opera
in English, and offer at the Ellens
burg theater on Friday evening,
March l.
This organization returns to us
with the stamp of approval from all
large cities. 1t was undoubtedly
one Of the most extensive and elabor-
ate productions of the past season,
originally produced last September
at the Boston opera house, where it
was cordially received. The beauti
full and massive stage settings, the
creditable performance of sooists,
chorus and orchestra; the beautiful
costumes, the brilliant lighting ef-
fects, upon the interpolated ballet,
the highly spiced diversion preferred
by the aggregation of agile acrObats.
the thrilling dash of horsemen up
the mountains; the cunning capers
of the monkeys, the squealing pigs
and squawking geese, all bid for at
tention, and the wonder of it all is
that they have been all so skilflully
and consistently introduced.

spraying and Care of Orchards"
will be the first subject for discus
sion at the institute meeting on Feb
ruary "a Saturday I:50 p. m.
In the course of his talk on sprays
and spraying, Professor Melander
will discuss thoroughly the process
of making lime-sulphur spray at
home. He says this can be done
cheaply by the rancher or orchardist
and high grade spray produced.
You are interested in this.
Whether you buy the commercial
sulphur lime or make your own, it
is necessary to test ii before using.
This can be done easily. Then you
know whether your solution is
strong enough you also know that
too much is not being used and con-
sequently wasted.
At each institute Professor Nor

There are certain scale insects, espe-

the play which broke so many at

far, judging from the size of the aud
