81 LOVE YOU" COMING TO
THE ELKS THEATRE.

William LIE Baron, author of the
smart satirical farce comedy which
comes to the Elks Theatre, Satur-
day, Oct. 18th has some very per-
tinent comment to make anent
successful farce-writing.
"Of course the first necessary
ingredient Of farce is an idea
that is basically humorous. It
doesn't make much difference
where or how you get the idea
because, if the play is finally sue
cessful, large numbers of people
will sue you for infringement,
while, if it fails, everyone will ad-
, NIT your originality.
"When an idea bursts upon
you, try telling it to someone in
fifty words. If it sounds new and
! funny, and it seems to suggest
amusing possibilities. you prob
ably have as much to begin with
as is necessary. Then go to some
manager who has q sense Of hu-
NOR, artistic ideas. sympathy. un-
derstanding and q desire to pro-
duce farces and tel him your idea
in fifty words.
eff he laughs and says, well,
by George. that is an idea, old
chap! How, soon can we start
rehearsing!' you Immediately be-
gin haggling over terms.
AFTER you have accepted his
offer, you rush home to your desk
and plunge into your drama. You
have described certain characters
in your fifty-word scenario and
you now gather them together
and let them start off the first act.
About half way through it you dis
cover that Teddy Calvert, who
was to be your comedian. has in
sisted upon turning himself into
a equity old gentleman or perhaps
q character woman. while some
totally significant, unimportant
person is doing all the talking and
keeping you in fits of mental
laughter, as you write.
''The plot you started with. has
entirely disappeared and you are
madly building up complications
that have nothing to do with the
case. However, this should not
discourage you, because, Of course,
your characters know much more
about playwriting than you do.
II you let them alone they will
usually come home wagging your
play behind them.
ut may be that the manager
who has agreed to produce the
play and who. while you have
been writing, has engaged q cast,
viii be annoyed when he sees the
final manuscript which is sup
posed to be built around the clev-
er fifty-word idea you recited to-
him sometimes he il. But by
this time he has gone so far that
it would cost him more to stop
than 60 on, so he takes the play
and puts it int rehearsal. And at
this point the author really begins
to write his farce

Feeling is general In legislative cir

1t is believed that the first thing the

declare Berger's seat vacant. Then
the governor Will call for special
election and the secretary Of state will
take legal steps for u special primary.
Actual entrance of Berger into
prison does not automatically vacate

is for his attorneys to file a writ OF

passed all production records, accord
ing TO Joseph A. Becker of the Wis
consin cooperative crop reporting
service.
The acreage In 1918. 1885, 900 acres,
was below the acreages for 1902 to

1918 was 46.6 bushels per acre. The
1915 yield was 46.5. Total production
passed the hundred million bushel

reaching 110,2390O0 bushels.
Wisconsin was the sixth state In
acreage planted, first In yield per acre,
and fourth in total production of this
crop.

criticizes Soldiers on Farm idea.
''The present plan of the federal adj
minlstration for the settlement Of re
turned soldiers in community groups
and selected areas absolutely win not
do for conditions in the Great Lakes
region" declared ii. L. Russell, dean
of the Wisconsin College Of Agricul-
ture, before the state convention of
Wisconsin real estate men here re-
Gently.
The government plan is to settle a
returned soldier on land reclaimed by
government labor under government
supervision and pay, the cost of re-
claiming and the price Of land to be
returned in longtime payments.
This may be suited to conditions in
the irrigated sections of the West, "
said Dean Russell, "but It is not for
Wisconsin.
Forty thousand Of Wisconsin,
10000 soldiers were from farms" de-
clared the dean. IF these 10000 boys
are to benefit by government assist
ance It means they must leave their
homes to go to some other spot select
ed by the government"
Dean Russell advocated construc
tive policy which would help the Wis
consin men In service.
He believes in a state policy which
will not only include the soldier, but
anyone else who wants to work for a
home and farm. Wisconsin is ready
to go ahead with intelligent settlement,
he said.

LIVE STOCK notes.

Pork hogs is a pretty fair business
to follow now, provided you raise your
feeds and every attention that we can
give TO make the best of hogs will
pay US well in the future.
Grow into the sheep businessmen
go into it. Beginners should start on
a rather small scale and increase the
size of the flocks as experience is
gained.
Rye pasture viii be a disappolnt-
ment If you depend upon 1t as a sole
ration but stock should have grain
and other roughage.
Beef feeders found long ago that in
order to secure profitable and consist
ent gains all their cattle should be
dehorned.
Alfalfa hay is rich in protein. a mus
cle-forming nutriment which idle
horses are not so much In need of.
Cattle that are fed silage do not
shrink in transit any more than do
those receiving dry roughage alone.
Each calf needs a separate pail. for
calves like all other animals differ in
their speed of eating.
When breaking the colt, see that all
parts of the harness are strong and
Git well.
Why some farmers continue to
breed to the scrub stations is a mys-
terry.
Avoid giving spoiled feed to the
horses
Give the SOW and litter free range
and allow them TO exercise part of
their superfiuous fat off and in It's
place put on a good growth Of bone
and muscle.
The mangel is more nutrftive as s
stock food than the turnip; weight for
weight II contains more dry matter
and a higher percentage Of sugar.

With the ingredients of a good ra-

that they may eat at will, hogs will
make gains more rapidly and more
economically than when fed by hand.

FEEDING SHEEP IN WINTER
Oil Meal Should Form Liberal Part
of Grain Ration Where Coarse
Feed Is Given.

Where sheep are fed largely on
coarse rough feeds during the win
ter season, with little or no clover
or alfalfa hay, or no silage or roots.
oil meal should always form, liberal
part of the grain ration. Its laxative
and toning qualities will counterfeit
the constipating effect of the dry,
coarse feeds, which is the cause of
most of the trouble which comes to
flock owners in the winter months.

with respect to the kind and amount
of feed. "The Self-Feeder for Hogs"
Farmers Bulletin 906) explains the
advantages of the self-feeder and gives
bill of materials necessary for its con-
struction.
The growing scarcity of farm labor
is making it necessary to adopt sys-
tens of farming which will eliminate
part of the work required at rush
seasons. Such a system is carefully
described in "a Corn-Belt Farming
System Which Saves Harvest Labor
by Hogging Down Crops" Farmers
