TIE PLAY At THE suee.

season On the whole it would prop
eriy be called fairly good play fairly
well presented We are speaking Of

scen ly a large crowd al he sugg last
night Nov personally We dom
choose the sob style of play and we
confess TO no overfondness for Harold
Ben Wright. the author of the booI
on which this play is based Our idea
is that Wrights books are best sell
ers' because ne is a best advertiser
but that's neither here nor there. You
know, Of course. that til scene OF the
play is in the Ozarks but some OF tbs
characters. notably Aunt Molly. sam
my and Young Matt didn't seem a bi.
like natives. Old Matt was a good
one and the same actor as Wash Gibbs
was exceedingly fine in the mill scene
Preachin Bin was the hit Of the
waole show and could scarcely have
been better while Dad. the shepherd
handled his part cutie we'll Miss Lit
tie as Pete did a difficult part very
skilfuliy. while Lem. minor charac
ter. was so good that we wanted him
to have a BETTER part The play was
pretiily staged and the story carries
correct moral teaching.

On Friday evening the United Order
of Foresters met in the w. R. c. hall
with $50 members present. During the
evening 46 new members were added
to the already large number, United
Supreme Secretary George W. Blann,
formerly of Baraboo, and State Super
intendent A A. Rel, being present to
ioin in the festivities and assist with
the work. After the exercises there
was an oyster supper at the Foresters
hall. There were number Of visiting
members from 2eedsburg and the
event was one of the most successful
in the history Of the local lodge. The
state officers have returned home.
The potato market in this section of
Wisconsin is demorahzed. Returns
from car lots sent to the large centers
state that there is much dry rot and
that the tubers must be sorted upon ar
| rival. This means big loss. One
grower reports that he has l, 500 bushels
| in the basement and fears that they
will all decay. Another grower says
| that although he harvested several hum
dred bushel he fears that he will be
under the necessity of buying for home
use. George w. Andrews, who has
been engaged in the potato business
for many years with the Johnston Lum-
Der company, says he believes the po-
| tatoes in this section are not planted
early enough in the spring. He thinks
they should go into the ground earlier
and then would have more time tc
/ ripen. Potatoes are planted late on
account of the bugs, but this has result
ed in small returns this year. The let
tiers from Chicago say that car lots
from Reedsburg are in the same condi
| ton as from Baraboo.
