BOHEMIAN r

The Bohemian Grip which will
come to Brookings Monday, March 81,
for one night at the Grand, will give
our theatre-goers one of the best even
ings of the season.
The Bohemian Girl" company play
ed in New Orleans during last Decem-
Der. The New Orleans Item says;
1t has been a long time since New
Orleans theatre-goers have heard
opera in English sung in such an ad-
mirable manne as Balfe's "The Bo-
hemian Girl" was sung at the Tulane
theatre Sunday night to a good sized,
enthusiastic audience. The production
is termed an all-star revival, but not
only are all the principals capable the
male and female choruses are the best
ever heard in opera here, which is
something to be thankful for as New
Orleans has heard very few good
choruses even at the French Opera
House.
While there is no attempt at any
thing spectacular which might detract
from the spirit and atmosphere of the
scenes as intended by the composer,
correct and beautiful settings are used
in all of the five acts and the costumes
are faithful to the environment.
There are a dozen beautiful songs
in the opera chief of which are "In the
Gypsy's Life You Read" sung by the
ensemble: 81 Dreamt That Dwell in
Marble Halls" "Bliss Forever Past
"The Heart Bowed Down" and Then
You'll Remember Me-"
In the list Of distinguished singers
the rich mezzo contralto voice of Miss
Ealine De Salem stood out. Her sing
ing of bliss Forever Past" was ex
quisite both in the delivering of the
melody and its Interpretation. This all
Is not as popular as some Of the Others
in the score, but if Miss De Sellem hat
sung it a few generations ago 1t woult
have been a greater favorite than ever
THE Heart Bowed Down"
Arthur Deane Is best among the male
singers. He Is a baritone with mellow
tones and in addition knows how t.
act. The same may be said of Rober
A. White, whose voice may be CLASH
fed as a heavy baritone. Sometimes
this role Is sung by a base, but in Mr.
Whites hands it is thoroughly accept
able.
The prima dona of the company Il
Miss Mirth Carmen, a slip Of a girl
very pretty, and very promising as
singer. In all of her numbers she wa
encored repeatedly. The tenor, JOSEPH
+. Sheehan, has a pleasing voice ant
made a good impression.
The score Of chorus girls are al
young and prepossessing and all hav'
good voices.

spring when Mr.. Writ advised farm
ers to buy machinery because of pros
pective advances In prices. Due to
lack of steel in many forms, compan-
les have been compelled to discon-
tinue the manufacture of certain ma
chimes, and consequently branch
houses in Kansas City and elsewhere
are not carrying some of the import
ant machines required by farmers.
1.-THE prices are not likely to come
down even should the war come to a
close tomorrow" says Mr.. Writ.
"Steel companies are so far behind in
supplying the demand for their prod
ucts that 1t would be many months
before prices would be affected.
Dealers in Kansas-at least a
majority of them-have not raised
prices as rapidly as the manufactur-
ers have been compelled to raise
them. Many of these dealers are SELL
ing machines at the prices they will
have to pay the manufacturers when
the machines in stock are duplicated.
In consideration of this condition,
probably can make sub
stantial saving by buying now"

MORE ABOUT KANSAS WHEAT
Time Of Seeding 10 an Important Fac
tor In Getting Results Say
College Authorities.

One or the most important fs "tors
in wheat production in Kansas is the
time of seeding, asserts Professors
L. e. Call, s. c. Salmon and c. C.
Cunningham of the Kansas State Ag-
ricultural college in an experiment
station bulletin. 1t is determined
largely by local and seasonal condi-
lions.
Wheat that is sowed late is subject
to winter killing. The roots do not
penetrate the ground as deeply as
when 1t is sowed early, and hence 1t
is more subject to injury from drouth
and hot winds. Late sowed wheat
tillers very little and hence usually
gives a thin stand. 1t ripens late,
and In the eastern part Of the state
Is more likely to be injured by rust
than wheat that is sowed somewhat
earlier. The quality is usually poor
as compared with wheat planted early.
On the other hand, wheat sowed too
early is practically certain to be in
jured by Hessian fly IL these insects
are present in the neighborhood.
In central and eastern Kansas wheat
may be sowed late enough to avoid
most Of the injury from Hessian fly
and yet early enough on well pre-
pared ground to secure good growth
before winter. The best date Of seed
ing in northeastern Kansas varies
from about September rs to October
8; in south central Kansas from
about September rs to October z; and
in north central Kansas from Septem-
Der 20 to October l.
The time for seeding in western
Kansas depends on the rainfall. 1t is
usually not advisable to seed In dry
ground. The land should be prepared
early and seeded when in proper con-
dition to insure termination and good
growth.

ANOTHER MOVE IN GAS CASE
President Of Kansas Natural Files APP
plication In District Court for
Removal of Receivers.

President Victor A. Hays of the Kan
sas Natural Gas Company, on behalf
of the stockholders reorganization
committee, has filed in the Montgom-
cry county district court an applica-
ton for the discharge Of the receiver
and a restoration of the property Of
the company to stockholders.
This action Is almost coincident with
the recent motion of Attorney General
Brewster of Kansas, and the two mat
tiers are practically identical and har-
mOnious. President Hays is acting
with full authority of the stockholders,
who recently proposed a new stock
issue which will pay off the $3,250,000
of Indebtedness and leave approx
mately $1,750,000 for extensions and
improvements. This will place the
company in sound financial and ply
steal condition to project its lines to
new gas fields, thus insuring an ade-
quate supply Of natural gas to the
towns and cities it serves for many
years to come, 1t Is claimed.
The issue and underwriting Of new
stock by the stockholders of the Kan
sas Natural Gas Company, is predi-
Gated upon two important points:
First, the securing of compensatory
rates, without which no new capital
could be secured; and, second, the
n a rrUin0 nf tho nrnditnrc,
ment by which the debts of the COM
pany can be paid.
Mr.. Hays has been in close touch
with the stockholders and has acted in
an advisory capacity with John M.
Landon, receiver, under the Montgom-
cry county district court and the fed
eral court.
