is IT EASIER TO WRITE
A PLAY THAN A NOVEL

In the January American Magazine
Walter Prichard Eaton, the dramatic
critic Of that publication, writes an
article in the course OF which he
compares the writing Of plays with
the writing of novels. Following is an
extract:
Arnold Bennett has recently thrown
bomb-shell into the camp of the
dramatists by declaring that, contrary
to accepted belief. II is much easier
to write play than a novel. One OF
the chief reasons why 1t is easier, in
Mr.. BENEFITS opinion seems to be be-
cause play is so much shorter than
novel. The chief difference (other
than lengthy between play and a
novel Mr. Bennett finds In the fact
that the former is built entirely with
dialogue.
From the writer's standpoint, the
real difference between play and novel
lies right here; the play must really
not be written at all, It must be con
ceived in the authors mind in terms
OF spoken words, living actors, lights,
[ SCENERY, music; the novel Is conceiv-
| ed in terms OF written words. You
| may almost be sure that an author
who hasn't in himself touch OF the
play actor, who cannot tell a story
orally with hints of character observa-
ton and dialect, who hasn't an eye for
color and grouping and a naive love
for the footlights, will not succeed as
a dramatist, The fact that the same
men las Mr., Bennett) writes both
novels and plays no more proves the
two forms alike than does the fact
that Michael Angelo painted and cary.

First in Wheat

First in Alfalfa

1t is no surprising that the recent development of Montana, In an
agricultural way, has been marvellous. The fertility of the soil of this
great state OF unlimited resources, is best described by the reports of the
Bureau of Agriculture, at Washington, D. c.
Montana is not only tn. Incompatible grain producer of this Union,
but her qualities of grain are prize winners weherever exhibited in com.
petition. .#@@
These are indBputable facts, and failure on the part of ne engaged
in farming here, can be attributed only to the nal and not to the land,
and satisfy yourself.
Montana as a producer ola alfalfa, timothy, and all grasses and vege-
tables, ranks high. The qualities are equal to the best. The acre yields
nave demonstrated the real value, when under cultivation, and will rapidly
increase the prices that are now asked for agricultural properties in
this state.
Fruit growing is an industry of Importance here and the suitableness
of the soil and climate has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of those
who have enaaged in that business o n a large scale. In 1890, Montana
produced but 1896 boxes of apples, while in 1910, our yield was $4,000
boxes.
The cultivation Of the soil and the rapid development of Montana
a a agricultural state, WILL n o doubt, increase activity in connection
with the many other natural resources here. Montana is and has been,
for many years. a great producer of gold, silver, copper lead, zinc and
COAL and her mines give employment to many thousands of miners, and
sneltermen. These men are consumers of farm products, of dairy pro-
ducts and OF poultry, eggs, beef mutton and pork. Ready markets are
afforded and good prices ire always obtainable. The development of
other natural resources in this state will give employment to men, sunc-
lent in number, 10 consume the products of her farmers for many years
come. ..@.. #@ =

Montana Leads the World

For the year 1911, Montana's wheat yield per acre, was 317 bushels
Compared with other states in the Union Montana ranks first in the yield
per acre of wheat; 267 bushels per acre having been the average produc-
ton for the years from 1S951906. When it is taken into consideration
that comparatively little of the total wheat producing area is in cuniva,
ton, it is evident that Montana will take first rank as a wheat producing
state in the near future-(From Official Bulletin No. 81, issued by the
Bureau of Soils, United States Department of AgricultureD
From 1896 to 1906, the reports of the Department of Agriculture at
Washington, show that the average values of wheat crops, per acre, have
been al follows: Ohio, $1O76; Indiana, $3.50; Missouri, 1855; Michigan,
$1o63; Illinois, $962; Minnesota, ss78; Iowa, $9O2; North Dakota, s756;
