I made several experi ments this year in regard to the seed ing of the alfalfa, and am convinced that my plan of transplanting is abso lutely commercial and that in the very near future we are going to build up a very considerable industry in the alfalfa plant business. I lost less than one per cent of the Grimm alfalfa plants that were transplanted on the station farm last summer, and this work was done by inexperienced men without any precautions being taken to Insure the living of the plants, de pending entirely upon the natural pre cipitation during the month of May. With my Case transplanter I can set 50,000 plants a day, with a spurt of wa ter from a barrel around every plant as it is set.

LEE RICE, Proprietor P *** t ~" *'■ * HELENA, MONTANA with cutting back plants, so as to re tard the blooming period until after the summer rains are over and force pollenation in August. I have some very nice specimens showing the feasi bility of this plan, for if the plants are allowed to set during the rainy period the moisture interferes with pollenization and the thing to be de sired is to retard this process until the rains are over. Another point that I have also been working on is to de termine the proper space between plants for the best seed production. Then accidentally I have discovered that alfalfa seed growing is about the only line of farming that a man can engage in that is 'hail-proof.' My nursery at Broadview, consisting of over a hundred acres, was hailed out the first week In July until nothing but straw stood. The moisture that fell with the hall thoroughly wet the ground and the plants sent out new branches and a second growth came up from the roots and set seed, which, although not threshed as yet, looks good for three bushels to the acre. It is proposed to incorporate under the laws of Montana to grow seeds under contract and to handle them in a local seed house to be opened next spring. The seed company will also handle a full line of Dr. Sudduth's al falfa stock feeds. Temporary arrange ments have been made with the Farm ers' Elevator Co. to handle these feeds. Any one desiring to use them can or der the feeds from them or from Mr. C. L. Wentworth on Fifth avenue, who is using the feed for horses, cows and calves. Mr. Wentworth is highly pleased with the rations and invites any one who is interested to visit his stables and see the results obtained, which he says are simply marvelous." City Treasurer Roy C.

H. J.. KELLY, Regis tel A. HOG ELAND, Recsivei Behind the Footlights The Princess. The Big reature of the week at the Princess will be tonight's program, when the world's championship series between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Athletics will be shown in two reels. The two thousand feet of film will he crowded with the best portions of the games and all fans es pecially will want to witness this re production of the struggle between the National and American league pen nant winners. Mathewson, the master ful, "Bullet" Bush, Chief Bender, Plank and the other kings of the mound will be seen in action, along with Baker—"Home Run Baker"— Doyle and the other famous players making up the two nines. It Is worthy of note that the world's series pictures will be seen only once in Montana before coming to Lewis town. In addition to this feature, there will be two splendid moving picture photoplays, making up an exception ally varied and interesting program. Next Sunday evening the usual con cert by the Lewistown Concert or chestra will be given, and as on last Sunday night, the moving picture bill will be an all-feature one, .specially selected for that night. night. The Bijou. The principal vaudeville features, Partick Miles & Company, and Miss Mizzie Admont, failed to arrive here in time to open Sunday, but they de lighted three big audiences last eve ning. The Miles company of three talented people give a delightful one act comedy. "My Friend From Ire land," and Miss Admont, a charming comedienne, has few equals as a mimic. What it is assumed will be the most novel of all the Selig South African features will be "A Wild Ride," which is to be shown at the Bijou tonight in connection with a complete change of the program. We have had broncho riding galore, along with elephant and camel riding, but the heroine in this feature film makes her sprint on a winged steed, an ostrich. The heroine, peedless to say, is Bessie Eyton. To introduce the ostrich ride, the develop ment of the drama brings a family of whites in South Africa under siege in their home by a lot of Zulu warriors, with no chance for escape except from the outside. To secure relief the daughter of the household slips through a window to the ostrich pen, mounts the mighty bird and flees over the veldt to the distant English mili tary station. It takes two reels to tell this story and it is counted upon aa being the biggest moving picture feature ever exhibited here. Thursday evening Jack Golden, for many years one of America's popular stars and who is now the biggest at traction on this western circuit, and his company will open at the Bijou In a playlet that is now taking Butte by storm. Another attraction will be Eu genia Lafayette, "the musical maid." This will be the highest priced vaude ville program ever offered at the Bijou since it opened its doors. LECTURE CLUB FEATURE.

The program for the Athletic club's show at Culver's Thursday evening GET YOUR CANADIAN HOME FROM THE Canadian Pacific Ry Write or meet our local representative at office of Daniel Hanley promises well. It ought to be the best card of the kind ever put up here. In tense interest is taken in the 12-round contest between Paddy O'Hern, of Lewistown, and Billy Morse, the "St. Paul Kid." Both men have done a lot of hard work getting in shape and are now in the pink of condition. This will be Paddy's first real contest with a man of class. The fact that Morse has twice won draws with Maurice Thompson and holds one decision over him shows his class. The semi-wind up of 12 rounds between Joe Uvanni and Jack McCarthy would, under oth er conditions, be the main event. The preliminary will be between McDon ald and Cottams, two clever colored heavyweights. George Steif gained one fall over Irs llnger. European middleweight cham pion, at Culver's last Tuesday night, putting his man down after an hour and fourteen minutes of the fastest kind of work. Steif was not able to get a second fall in the fifty-five min utes left until midnight, when the match ended under Police Gazette rules. Under the agreement between the men, no decision was to be given unless two falls were secured, so Ref eree Art Baker had to call it a draw. Irslinger took off weight too fast on returning from Great Falls and was not in his best form, but Steif was the aggressor throughout and match and made a grand showing. He has shown himself to be a legitimate con tender for the world's title. INTERESTING 8E88ION HELD. (Continued from page one.) $30 a month and it was decided to pay the office rent hereafter.
