AT THE AUDITORIUM.
Good Vaudeville and Motion Pictur

Good Vaudeville and Motion Pictures.
Three vaudeville acts that make up
a different combination from any hith-
erto seen at the Auditorium showed
there Thursday before good sized and
applauding houses that indicated their
satisfaction with the comedy and mus
ical novelty acts on the bill.
The Two Hardts, knockabout come
diars, bring out the laughs with their
funny pantcmime and trick weight
lifting and acrobatic acts, while Billy
Oliver contributes a musical Offering
to the bill in his blacface act that
serves to bring out his pleasing bari
tone voice, and makes a hit with his
floral rhyme.
Altogether dierent from anything
yet seen at the Auditorium is the act
Of Minute & Co., a puzzler on the sex
question in the early part of the act,
as the clever Mr.. Minute both looks
and sounds to be what is not and when
the revelation comes the audience is
sitting up and taking notice A double
voice duet and a pFettily costumed
dance produce pretty scenic effect
fer the act that gets a good hand.
The motion pictures are well chosen
for instructive and entertaining sub
jects.

Instructive Addresses Given Before Good Sized Gather

in Connecticut in 1885 by Prof. At
water and at the same time it was
found in Germany. All the nitrates
which have ever existed have been de-
posted by the activity Of the baccili
radicicola.
Unless the agriculturist stops mining
the land and begins TO restore tertll1z-
ing material, he can't expect to get
more therefrom The fostering of the
growth of the baccilli will greatly I'M
prove the land, it being the most BEN
eficial baccilli in existence.
After it is established on the clover,
the plant begins to tolerate it's exist
ence and then there springs up a mu-
tual relation from which both profit,
the condition Of life being of advan-
tage to both the bacillus and to the
plant. 1t lives in the driest soil, but
is not active under that condition.
Nitrogen from plant life is worth 20
cents a pound, stated Prof. Esten,
while nitrogen from commercial nitrate
of soda is worth but is to Is cents
pound. Not only is the former more
valuable, but it is available to all who
grow clover.
1t was through President Davis that
Prof Esten agreed to be the scientist
assistant for the organization and he
is a powerful one in the estimation OF
the dairymen He is to give his lecture
in Putnam next week and on the 21st
at Middletown.
Rotation of Crops was given by H.
o, Daniels, the man who has been
heard all over New England, there
being none in Connecticut who has
greater influence in inspiring improved
agriculture.
R. l.. Sadd Of Wrapping in his talk
on the growing of alfalfa was just as
interesting as on Wednesday at Pres
ton and was heard with great interest.
He told of raising four crops last year,
the total height of which was "a inches
and the value $50 a ton.
The committee for the club included
Frank Wilcox, J. D. Macarthur and A.
NJ. Lillibridge.

Another institute held under the au-
spices OF the Connecticut Dairymen's
association was well attended at the
Scotland Road Social clubhouse on
Thursday, over so being present, with
several from out Of town. Sprague,
Scotland, Windham, New London and
Willimantic being represented.
There were many expressions on the
part Of visitors commencing the spirit
shown by the Scotland Road club in
erecting their fine hall it being a re-
markable instance of neigkborhood CO.
operation, and no small effort for
rural community. The members man
Tested great interest in entertaining
their guests lunch being served at
noon, for which a vote Of thanks to the
ladies' was afterwards extended.
The address Of welcome was made
by Frank Wilcox and the response by
G. Warren Davis, president of the
State Dairymen's association, who pre-
sided over the session.
A prominent feature Of the day was
the address by Prof. w. NJ. Esten, bac-
teriologist at the experiment station at
the Connecticut Agricultural college,
who gave the clearest exposition Of the
life history of the bacilli radiciola that
has ever been heard hereabouts. This
bacillus inhabits the nodules on all
leguminous plants and is a benefit to
the plants A close study of this mat
ter has been made by Prof Esten and
he is thoroughly posted on all its
phases, as was shown Thursday, a
number of charts being displayed to
make plain his statements. These
showed the activity of the baecilli.
Prof. Esten stated that the nitrogen
existing free over every square foot
has value of $3.50. A considerable
portion of it can be appropriated by
growing of clover and, alfalfa. When
the bacillus makes its first approach
TO the root of the clover it attacks the
life of the plant, which the plant at
tempts to repel. resulting in the forma-
ton of nodule. or home of the bac-
cillus.. This bacillus was discovered

dent G. Warren Davis. in responding,
complimented them on the neir new
hall, saying the association was very
glad to be the first to use the hall.
He called attention to the address
which was to follow on Fertility and
the Sell. By Professor Estern of Storrs
agricultural college, who said in part:
Sixty years ago there were 1900, 900
acres of land under cultivation in the
state of Connecticut; now only 500, 900
are cultivated. the rest has been put
into timber. This must be reclaimed
for agriculture. You do not need to
invest too much in commercial fertil-
izers. Use what the soil requires in
chemicals such lime and potash. Nj

trogen may be obtained from the air
by planting soy beans, COW peas and
clover. When the sod is again turned
over the nitrogen is absorbed by the
soil.
A bountiful dinner was served at
noon by the ladies Of the Scotland
road to which all did ample justice.
At the afternoon session, Prof. H. O..
Daniels of Middletown spoke from his
nineteen years Of experience in the
Rotation Of Crops. Questions and an
swers followed this address, the fact
being brought out that a good rotation
every three years was corn for the
first, oats and clover for the second,
and clover the third year.
This was followed by R. L. Sadd of
Mapping, who told of his thirteen
years experience in growing alfalfa. In
the discussion which followed, the
