This is the 1900 play as giv en by the German Peasants at Ober ammergau, Ger many, and is by greatest authority pronounced to be the best play, if it may be called such that the world has ever seen. W e will produce it here but three nights. Don't miss it. December I 24 i 25 i 26 IF YOU HAVE EVER HEARD YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF AJSD CHRISTIANITY TO SEE This Greatest of All Great Plays u O u I 3 J3 U T3 o w M C o T3 C a) u THE STORY Many years ago there was a great pestilence sweeping over Germany. Entire villages were depopulated and the peasants at Oberammergau being a very religious lot of people met together and promised in sermon and prayer that if they were spared they would produce a play showing the life and crucifixion of Christ as nearly as possible. The pestilence never bothered these devoted people. THE PASSION PLAY IS THE RESULT. An attempt was made at one time to reproduce and stage the play in New York but it was at once prohibited by law. The only place the play can be seen is at Oberammergau, Germany. We reproduce it here by actual photographs. 4000 Feet Hand Colored MOVING PICTURES Thtir Paturei 6KoulJ B HlgK Ciound en Farm.

Farmers who raise sheep, therefore, says Amerlean Stockman, should al ways select the highest ground for their pasture and If possible provide thera clean drinking water that they on a get to without going Into mud. If this ran be done there Is not a more protltable animal on the farm exeept those whose nctuul services are needed and make them protltable. AMERICAN MERINOS. Some Characteristic of This Hardy Breed of Shp. The variety known a the American Merino Is a modltlciitlon of tho Spanish Merino and bits been established lu this couutry for more than a hundred years. Its most striking characteris tic Is the heavy folding of the body, excepting over the back; also the small, short hair, tho heavy twisted horns of the male and the thin skin. Tho fleece covers the eutlre body aud legs, often almost couceallug the eyes. The sur face of the fleece Is usually very dark, owing largely to the oil end dirt. The Hoece Is of tho very highest grade and Is the leading business char astcrlstlc of tho breed. Many ma ture ewes shear twelve to fifteen pounds and rams fifteen to twenty pouuds or even more, some records of RESERVED Randolph Ketchum SEATS Frank LaFollette AME11ICAN l Kill N O. thirty to forty-four pounds having been made. A record Is given of thirty-six rams, three yeurs old or over, shearing u little over thirty -one pounds each. The wool lu these Instances weighed over 2o per ceut of the total weight of the animals. Tho tendency of Merino wool Hluce introduction Into this couutry has been toward a greater degree of fineness. No doubt the wool has been Improved lu quantity and quality at the expense of mutton quali ty. The Merinos, although active and muscular, do not take on much fat and except In the grade Block are not considered of much Importance as a meat breed. The Merinos are well adapted to the conditions of the northeastern states, doing well lu the rough luouutuln pas tures. Were It not for the dog nui sance It Is probable that they would be kept In large numbers In the pas tures which have become unsuitable for dairy herds. They also thrive In the ranges of the far west and endure cold weather very well. To Keep the Pigs In Place. This style of feeding 4rough will be found to be very useful. The guards should be made of two Inch planks twelve to fourteen Inches wide at the widest point Two guards can be cut X FKE0INO THOUGH FOB FIGS. from each plank, and in this way the proper slant will be obtained, The construction ' must be very Ftrong, and everything must be well nailed, as It receives hard usage. The spout for the -feed can be made of one Inch plank, and one spout will serve any number of troughs. Rheumatism In Horses. For 'rheumatism In young horses It Is said that three drams of salicylate of soda three times each day for three days, then omitting for six days and repeating, Is an effective remedy.

It Is very essential lu rream ripen ing to ogltate the crenui frequently to Insure uniform ripening. When cream remains undisturbed for souse time the fat rir.es In the same way that It does lu milk, though In a l- marked de gree. The result I that the upper lay ers are richer than the lower and will sour less rnpMly, since the notion of the lactic acid germs Is greater lu (hlu than lu rich cream. This uneven rl- oulng leads to a poor bodied cream. Instead of being smooth nud glossjr, It will appear coarse aud curdy when poured from a dipper. The lniMirtauee of stirring frequently during ripening should therefore not le underestimated. O- -Q THE HORSEMAN. Colts should be kept twgether while being weaned, because the companion Bhlp helps them sootier to forget their dums aud keeps them from fretting. Reet For the Horee. Unless a horse lies dowu regularly his rest Is never complete, and his Joints and sinew will stiffen. Whllo It Is true that sumo horses will sleep In a standing position and continue to work for many years. It Is equally true that they would wear much better If they rested naturally. Exereie the Stallion. It Is very Important that stallions which are kept for stock purposes re ceive dally exercise for some tlmo pre vious to beginning stud service, aud also all through the stud season. A neglect on thepart of the owner or manager to have this dono will be liable to give the stallion a reputation for not being a suro font getter. Dully exercise Is Just ns Important for a stock horse as abundance of the best qunllty of the most nutritious fired, and both ore necessary to put ami keep the stallion In proper condition to be a sure fonl getter and Impart vigor and stamina to his fouls. Watering the Work Hone. Three times a day In hot summer weather, probably pulling on a dead strain nil the time, Is not often enough for tho work horse to bo watered. The flverngo man flnds It Doeossary under such conditions to drink much oftener. The man who works the horse ought to make provision for watering the anlmnl as often ns he waters himself. Value of Grooming. When a horse Is very tired or Is over heated the best thing to do for htm Is to give film a good rubbing down This at once makes htm more com fortnble and enables his skin to act normally In reducing his temperature and removing tho Impurities duo to muscular activity. Tho grooming Is not a mutter of nppenrnnee only, but of health. Farmers frequently neglect their horses In this particular, becauso they look upon it ns a matter of np- pcarnnce only. Tho health of the horse depends upon the condition of Its skin to a much larger extent than Is generally supposed. The rubbing down and currying stimulate the surface circulation and produce a feeling of well being throughout the wholo sys tem, which materially Impioves tho dl gestlon and assimilation of food.
