BERCEN.MARX co.

The Bergen-Marx Co. to appear
here Jan. 3, is the biggest musical
attraction being booked by the
Redpath Lyceum Bureau this year.
This company is composed of Mr..
Alfred Hiles Bergen, baritone;
Leon Marx, the noted violinist;
Hans Dressel cellist, and Herman
Schuchard, pianist.
Mr.. Bergen has repertoire
which comprises some 800 songs
and several oratorios. His voice
is high baritone with range of
nearly three octaves and his dra-
matte instinct is wonderful Origi-
nality is also strong feature of
his work.
MIR. Leon Marx, the violinist,
competed with forty-eight musi-
clans for scholarship under DR..
Joachim in Berlin, and won the
prize. DR.. Joachim was so pleased
with his pupils work that he pre-
sented him with rare old violin.
Hans Dressed, the violoncellest,
was born IN Saxony and early
played as pianist at both public
and private recitals He was first
winner of the Libotton Prize for
violoncello at the Guildhall School
of Music in London, where his
teacher was Chevalier de Munck.
His playing in Wales, Oxford,
made great hit with his audien-
ces.
Mr.. Henry Schuchard, the plan
ist, is making a great hit on this
trip of the Bergen-Marx Co, re-
ceiving some most excellent press
notices everywhere he appears.

The cow cannot be regarded as any.
thing other than a market for the
grains and the roughage of the farm.
The question to determine is whether
or not the COW we have is the most

recognized. Of course. that the cow fur.
nishes a market for otherwise unmar-
ketable r0ughage. but for such forages
for which there Is an actual cash mar
