-rr It's up to you 'alone to decide whether you will be able to take care of your crops when the time comes or whether you will be one of those who last ,by having to wait., \\‘. It'§ a fact, that a great shortage of harvesting machines and binding twine already exists in - some localities and already the harvester companies are calling on the trade to to assist them by reshipping machines to places where cutting has already begun. Our Stock Is Still Com lete and, we believe, ample to take care of Your de- mands, but as we cannot promise delivery after present stock is exhausted, we would ask you not to delay. The Deering Binder and Deering Binder Twines are acknowledged leaders and we are sole agsnts for Geyser and territory. Harney & Adams Hdwe. Co., GEYSER, MONT.

Sunday afternoon the territory be- tween the Belt and Highwood moun- tains received aeother nice shower. Everywhere throughout this territory the growing crops appear to splendid advantage. Haying is now in full swing. Wheat is beginning to turn in the average field in this vicinity, while farther east the grain is about ready to harvest. Yields of 25 to 30 bushels per acre seems to be the average yield expected for winter wheat. A good sized delegation took the train here this morning to attend the picnic and demonstration day exercises at the Moccasin experiment. Special rates were allowed by the Great Northern and the stub trains run at a more convenient hour so that every- one from Great Falls to Billings could attend the picnic and return home the same day.

Ramblers Win Fast ,Game The Ramblers fi l om Spion Kop ilitaneyed down last Sunday and much to the surprise of the Geyser support- ers, at the end of the arrnged seven - inning game the Ramblers were at the big end of a 3-2 score. The game was the fastest ever seen . on the local grounds and the quick way . in which the sides were retired kept interest at the top notch. Geyser scored early but then - Slim;\ the Ramblers' new pitcher, settled down and fairly reaped Geyser's strong bat- ters down. !roper and Dodge were working perfectly, but inability of the basemen to handle the ball finally got three runs across for the Ramblers. The decisions of the umpire were vet) unsatisfactory to both sides, but the Geyser boys realize they did not put up their best game and are now looking forward to the next game so they can obtain revenge. SHAKESPEARE AS AN ACTOR. He Evidently Was Not a Player of Any Great Power. It was probably in 1598 that Shake- speare drst appeared as Adam and as the elder Kuowell. and It wits probably In 1002 that he tirst personated the ghost, being then thirty eight years old. says Brander Matthews in the North American Review. He was to remain on the stage ten or twelve years longer, but there Is no reason to suppose that the parts he played in later life were any inure imprprtant. We do not know what characters he undertook In the plays which he wrote after - Hamlet.\ nor do we know what parts he assaults' in the many pieces by other authors whii•h made up the repertory or the company. That he continued to act we need not doubt. For Instance. he was one of the per- formers in lien Jonson's - SeJanus.\ probably produced in 1002 or 1103 But the absence of spei•itie inform lion on this point is evidence that tie did not impress himself upon his con- temporaries as an actor of power. As Lewes der•Iared. mere fact that we hear nothing of his qualities as tin actor Implies that there was not above the line, nothing memorable to be spoken of.\ The parts which we be- lieve him to have played did not \de- mand or admit various excellencies.\ Shakespeare may have had lofty hls trionic ambitions. Inn probably he was not allowed to gratify his longings, and certainly we have no tradition or hint that he ever failed in what he at- tempted in the , theater. Perhaps we are Justine(' In believing that he had gone on the stage merely as the easiest means of Immediately earning his liv• Mg. that he did not greatly tare for acting and that he was satisfied to as- sume the responsible but subordinate parts for which he was best fitted.
