AMUSEMENTS.
Yesterday afternoon the Orchestral so
ciety gave Its fourth concert at Boyd's
theater under the direction of Franz Adcl-
mann. iThc audience was larger than here
tofore. Mr. Adclmann hro Improved in hla
conducting and controls his men , as a gen
cral thing , successfully. His Interpretation ,
nro somewhat superficial whenever ho ven
lures outside the realm of popular musl
and ho misses many Important points of ex
picsalon. In the Carmen selection his temp
were frequently too slow , but he obtalnei
n line effect In the Toreador episode , where
tht 'violins ' have a rapid upward scale , by
accompanying It with a sudden crescendo
iu the ensemble. The work ot the strings
wns very good In the "Iluy Bias" overture
but the brass seemed nt times to think
they were the only peaches on the tree.
The sonata In G minor by Grieg , revlewet
nt length In lost Tuesday's Bee , was on the
program yesterday. Its greatness Is more
manifest no one becomes better ncqualntet
with It. Mr. Adelmann deserves much
credit for undertaking uch a difficult work
especially as It Is so unlikely to be under
stood by the avcrago listener. It is to be
hoped that ho will play It once more , at his
next concert , when he will have the assist
ance of Mmo. Muentcferlng. Yesterday
that part of the thematic development left
by the composer to the piano was quite lost ,
even the uotca not being audible at times.
The playing of the members of the orches
tra Is worthy of commendation. The mu
sical people of Omaha will hardly find n
more satisfactory way of spending an after
noon than by hearing these concerts. May
the patronage Increase.
The next concert Is announced for Friday
afternoon 'at 3 o'clock , January 28 , and
Mine. Muentefcrlng will bo the soloist.
Walker Whltcsldo's engagement , which be
gins tomorrow at Boyd's , will Include four
evening performances and a matinee on
" " will bo Sunday
Wednesday. "Hamlet" presented
day and Wednesday nights , "Richelieu" Mon
day , "Othello" Tuesday , and "Tho Merchant
of Venice" at the matinee.
On Monday nftwnoon , nt 4 o'clock , Walker
Whltcsldo will deliver a free lecture on "Tho
Merchant of Venice" at Crelghtca hall.
The engagement ot "A Boy Wanted" a
Doyd's will terminate with a matinee ant
evening performance at Boyd'a.
By reason of an error In the theater pro
gram , llio praise- deserved by John W , Wesl
wns bestowed i ion Walter L. Mack In the
notice of "A Boy Wanted , " which appeared
In 111 eau columns yesterday.
The Woodward company plays two perform

DEMAND IS FOR LEAN HOGS
Change in R'qniratrnnU of the

MISTAKES FARMERS MAKE IN FEEDING
Superintendent ICrnynn ( Jlvi-n Sonic
liiforiiinlloii for HIP llcnrfH of
MrlniIliilncr * of lunn nml
VT. J , C. Kenyan , manager of the Union
Stock Yards company , has Inaugurated a
movement looking toward the furnishing of
Information to the farmers and stock growers
ors of the wt > t rewarding the- kind of stock
that U In demand nt the leading markets
of the country. As a rule stock growers
Becra very well Informed as to the kind of
cattle that nro wanted and no trouble Is
experienced by the packers In obtaining
anything and c cry thing that Is required to
fill the demand of beef caters. What one
section docs not produce some other doca ,
to that the packer can obtain heavy corn
fed beeves or what are known on the market
a "tldy"llttlo cattle from the feeders of
N'obraaka , Iowa and Missouri , while from
the western states como western grasssers
during the late summer and fall and still
further along In the season hay or alfalfa
fed westerns , and the supply can bo upplc-
muntcd by thin canncra from Texas or In
dian Territory.
With hogs the situation Is somewhat dif
ferent and the growers of awlnc cither do
not appreciate fully the situation , or clao
are not prepared to act upon the Information
which they already havo. Hurlns the InJt
few years there has been n decided change
In the character of the demand for pork , and
hogs that would have filled all requirements
In the past are no longer the best sellers.
There was n time when thick and heavy
fat pork seemed to have the lead In the
markets of the \\orlil , but the public ap-
pctlto has apparently changed.
LFi\N HOaS IN DEMAND.
Thin and rather lean bacon and small and
Ipan hams are given the preference now and
the demand for that kind of meat Is still
further Increased by the growth of' the ex
port trade which calls for tint thing only.
A long bodied , slim hog , neighing 200 or
230 pounds , Is the kind of an animal required
to produce that kind of meat , and for that
reason has come to bo known very generally
as the . -bacon hog. The English , who nro
the Lest cuitomors America has , will take
no other and the home demand Is constantly
growing. At the same time the varloua sub
stitutes for lard , such .is cotton seed oil ,
ha\o diminished still further the demand
for the over-grown lard hog.
At thn nrcaont time the bacon hog Is pro
duced only to a very limited extent outside
of those stnta located along the ( southern
bordur of the great corn belt. Thus Kansas
City , by reason of Its position receives a
good many light or bacon hogs from Okla
homa , Missouri and Arkansas , but the
farmers of Nebraska and Iowa , located lu
the heart of the corn belt grow almost ex
clusively heavy packing or lard hog.i. .
Ino reason for this condition of affalro Is
very plain. In the atates where corn Is not
overly plo-.tlful the host -do not mature co
rapidly and do net became so heavy and fat ,
whllu In the sMtes where corn Is both plen
tiful and cheap the farmeni feed all that
they can cat andi the result Is largo and fat
hogs. It might look as If the farmer with
unlimited fcod supply bill nil the advrntase
in thtj arrangement , but > i more- careful ex
amination cf the results may prove other
wise.
WHERE THE FARMER LOSES.
In the first place the demand for bacon
hcgs , aa nctcd , Is greater than for heavy
liogs and consequently the light hogs bring
the most money , the spread between the two
grades amounting to 10 to 20 cents par hun
dred pounds , according to the state of the
market. The Nebraska farmer , when hb
drove of hcgs b.s reached the right weight
to sell well for bacon hog3 , say 250 pouniii
each , reckons that by keeping them a little
longer ho will odd a hundred pounds to their
weight and , as this ! a accomplished by the
UBO cf cheap conn , ho figures that he Is
' irgely thegainer. . That Is he lisa gained a
hundred pounds In weight which Is sufficient
to moro than counterbalance the Icca la
price. By doing that , however , he runj
greater risk , ? of less from dlcnaso , as the
larger and fatter the hogs become the moro
susceptible they arc to cholera. The Iccscs
from that one disease In the corn belt rua
Into the millions of dollars every year. The
heavy hog Is also a difficult animal to ship
to market. c < s heIs naturally sow ! and
clumsy and the losses in transit and at thp
loading and unloading po'nts are also heavy.
In handling them after their arrival at the
market many of them give out and have to
be sold -it a lower price as cripples. All th'n
tells heavily against the profits of the heavy
hog grower.
On the other hand the bacor.i ho ? Is of a
hardier breed , leffl likely to bo attacked by
disease , and sufficiently strerig to Aland the
trip to market with much le&i IMS. When
he reaches the market he Is a much better
seller. It Is a noteworthy fact that buyers
almost always pick out the light loads of
hogs before they begin op the heavy , and. if
any are left It Ls almost always the big and
heavy.
Mr. Kenyon believes that If the farmers
of the west would go over -ill the ground
carefully they would came to the conclu
sion that they arc making a mlotako In not
breeding some bacon bogs In place of all
lard hogs.

Malt-Nutrlno Is the only really great ex
tract of malt offered on the market , other
so-called extracts being nothing better
than strong black boer with a largo per
centage of alcohol and a very small one of
extractive matter. Such extracts should not
be given or recommended to convalescents
or strength-seeking people , slnco their
merits are on the label and not In the bottle.

Gentlemen My greatest trouble seemed
to be n General weakness and nll-ovnr tlrcil
feeling. I am 60 years of ago and I did not
expect to ever bo strong again , but I used
four bottles of Paine's celery compound and
was greatly strengthened , and my cough
seemed better so that I stopped using the
remedy and have not since felt the need of
any further help whatever.

Iho process by which Pa I no's celery com-
oounil Is able to build up 'icalth In the run
down body Is not hard to understand when
one observes how surely It d'sposes ' the bow
els to act regularly , how It Increases the
capiclty to take and assimilate fool , and
regulates the nerves all over the body.
The heavy , alarming pain In the hack and
loin ? disappears ; the growing paleness ami
loss of llcssh Is stopped and a bright , buoyant
feeling gradually takes the place of that un
ending sense of tire and depression.
IMIne's celery compound Is the exact rem
edy for that large class of feeble , thin-blood
ed , often hysterical persons whose greatest
need Is a thorough refurbishing of their
blood with the re < l corpuscles upen which
health and happiness In such large measure
depend.
