The latest London gossip is that the
gay Lord Craven, grandson Of the New

1t is interesting to know that there is
a new Duchess of Leinster who was for
merly Miss May Etheredge, the pretty
Pink Pajama Girl of the Gaiety The
ater. The Duke of Leinster is the pre-
mier duke and Earl in the Irish peerage.
1t is one of the most remarkable Norman
families in the United Kingdom, having
an unquestioned pedigree and having en-
joyed the same high position for fully
500 years.
When May Etheredge married her hus-
band he was Lord Edward Fitz Gerald,
and merely the third son of the then duke.
Since then his oldest brother, who be-
came the duke, has died of illness. while
the next brother who would have sue
ceeded to the dukedom, was killed in
battle. The new duchess has very
charming and kindly manners as we'll as
beauty, and 1t is predicted that she will
make as great success as any Of the
actresses who have become peeresses.

of Westminster in England, has become
a professional actress and won hearty
admiration by her talent as well as her
beauty. Young Mrs. August Belmont, Jr,
has made a dash into the movies and
may make another.
Miss Peggy White, a popular New York
society girl, and Miss Peggy Thayer. who
is equally prominent in Philadelphia, are
two more fashionable recruits to the
footlights.
The present Mrs. John Barrymore, for
merly Mrs. Leonard Thomas, who was
born to high social position in New York
and later excited admiration by her
beautiful and statuesque appearance at
the head of a suffrage parade, has tried
her hand as a playwright. Her friends
would not be surprised IL she made her
debut on the stage at any moment.
High French society is more inclined to
resist the attraction OF the stage than
any other, but even there the tendency Is
seen. New Workers, by the way, had the
pleasure of seeing prominent and beauti-
full member of the French aristocracy,
the Baroness de Grandcourt, on our local
stage Under the name of Patricia O'Con-

wonderful beauty and fine acting. She
has also acted with the Gaiety Company

T. VERY RANK of the British peerage
from duke to baron is now repre-
sented on the stage-in most
cases by some fair member of a peers
family and in several cases by the noble
chief himself.
In few years, they say, high society
will be as lively and entertaining as
variety show.
What Is the meaning of this rush of
titled women, reared more or less in the
lap of luxury, to the difficult, dangerous,
not overpaid, formerly despised life of
the footlights?
There is no doubt that the principal
motive that impels these titled women is
the desire to show that they can be jus
as attractive, If necessary just as recklesb,
as the women of the class usually trained
for the stage. There are indeed many
motives which have had their influence
in different cases-changed social condi-
tions, poverty in high life, desire for ex-
citement-but the one just mentioned is
by far the leading force. Many young
English noblewomen have said 1t. They
have been angered by the sight of the
richest and most eligible men of their set
marrying pretty chorus girls of plebeian
birth, and they are determined to show
that they can exercise quite as much fas-
cination over the general public them
selves.
I'VE have heard quite too much about
the irresistible charm of some very ordi-
nary actresses and chorus girls" said an
English dukes daughter recently. I'VE
are told that our men cannot resist them
because they are not only beautiful but so
witty and such delightful companions.
"The fact is that very moderate
amount of beauty seen through the
glamour of the footlights turns the head
of the ordinary man. Faces are idealized
and limbs are perfected by the footlights.
wit has nothing to do with 1t. Our girls
of birth and breeding have more beauty
and more brains as a rule than the act
resses of the older type.
I'VE are proving 1t. There are ho
more graceful women in the world than
the long limbed girls of the English upper
classes, VINO have grown up with hunting
and all kinds of field sports"
Constance, former Duchess of West
minister, is perhaps the most highly placed
Englishwoman who has made her appear
ance on the stage. The Duchess, who was
one of the most beautiful and dashing
women in English society, recently OBJ
tanned a divorce from the Duke, who Is
quite noted as the richest English peer
and the owner of Belgravia and Grosvenor
Square, two choice parts of London.

hope to.
Her mother was Mrs. CORVALLIS West,
who was considered by King Edward the
most charming hostess in the "old Marl-
borough House SET"
Some years ago when the young
Duchess was busy quarreling with her
husband, she acted at a house party,
where he was not present, in a gay
little sketch called "Scaramouche." She

eral persons remarked at the
time that there was not girl
at the Gaiety who could show
better understandings than
the Duchess, and the sugges-
tion sank into her mind.
After her recent divorce
she married young man of
no great Importance, who had
been an actor for a time.
Now she Is playing comedies
in the British provinces with
a company of professionals,

enjoying herself very much.

herself to the screen.

FEEDING ALFALFA TO
DAIRY CATTLE

Replying to a question of farmer
as to the feeding of alfalfa to dairy
cattle where there is no pasture, Prof.
f. G. Woodward, retiring head of the
dairy husbandry department at the
state college of Washington, says:
clarifying is not generally prac-
ticed where pasture is not available
except in the immediate vicinity of
large cities where the demand for
market milk is very good. This does
not mean, however, that dairying in
some outlying districts is impractic-
able, even though pasture is not avail
able.
pasture is considered a perfect
feed for the dairy COW; whereas dry
feeding, no matter how scientifically
followed, may in the long run lead to
unsatisfactory results. In other
words, pasture for a few months dur
ing the year, serves as a safeguard
against improper feeding the remain
der of the year when the COW is on
dry feed.
II would therefore suggest that
where there is no pasture available
but alfalfa is grown. the COW be fed
at least part of the summer on
green alfalfa direct from the field.
Where alfalfa is used as a soiling crop
in this way it will answer the pur-
roots in the ration will do much to
maintain the herd in perfect condi-
ton"

Figuring the 6S24 pounds Of but
ter fat at the present selling price Of
80 cents per pound, the dairymen in
the association cleared S2593 from the

ture Of this gain. was the fact that il
