RULES FOR PERFECT TURF Fertilizer Can Not Be Used i Too Great Quantity—Stable Manure Best. WASHINGTON, April 26.—At thin ••aeon of the year, when city an.’, guburban dwellers are repairing ^helr lawna, says the "Bureau of Solid Farmers' Bulletin," It la well to examine the soil to a depth of from twelve to twenty-four inche* to aee 1f there are any bricks, tin cans, hoards and other coarse building debris The Bulletin says that the reason that gram does not thrive on the average city lawn Is that the majority of them have a filler of this kind of rnbblah, and of course grass will not gTow on auch Infertile ma terial. Summarized, the Bulletin aays that ‘in general a lawn should be both beautiful and useful. Its beauty de pends upon the contour of the land, the color and texture of the grass and the uniformity of the turf. Its use Is to provide a suitable setting for architectural adornment and landscape planting. It is desirable in casea of small ground area to give the lawn as great extent as possible. To this end the buildings should be well back, the foundation not too high, and the grading slightly convex, »o »s to make a rolling surface from ♦he foundation to the street line. Debris Stops Rise of Water. "Bricks, flat tins, boards and other coarse building debris found In nearly all small lawns In the city, while probably facilitating the downward movement of water. Impedes Its up ward movement. And lawn soil should hare a good supply of mois ture at all times; It should be ab'e to take care of exeese during the wet season by drainage, so that during the dry season It can draw upon this gupply. Adequate w’ater supply la more Important than any added fer tiliser. and can not bo compensat'd for by any amount or kind of chemi cal plant food. “A soil for lawns should consist of clay, silt, very fine sand, medium sand, coarse sand and fine gravel. The "texture" of the soil 1s a partic ularly Important factor in a lawn. Clay usually makes a very strong j lawn soil, giving a dense sod. Clay loam soils, when well drained and carefully handled, are well suited for greensward. Silt loam soils are ideal ♦or lawn making but they must have good drainage and be liberally sup plied with organic matter. Sandy Soils Not Suitable. Loam soils, with good drainage and contain sufficient organic matter, i will maintain good lawns. The coarse sandy soils are unsuitable for lawn I purpose*, although certain grasses *• will grow upon them. A fair lawn may be established on soils of fine sandy type by paying especial at tention to the preparation of the soil ann by the Introduction of manure, or green manure with bone phosphate sa<i lira# In some oases, and copious watering during the dry seasons. The sgfidy loam soils make very good I*#"*, when well drained and well pp'led with organic matter. In general grass seeds are small, for them the surface seed bed nets 1 not be more than one Inch In depth; but the grasses as they be come established send out long lateral (calling roots; therefore, deep culti vation and thorough preparation of atjjeast eight or ten Inches of the surface soil Is advisable Stable Manure Called Beet. Sft la hardly possible to make the soil too rich. Rtable manure, thor oughly composted and rotted and as frse as possible from detrimental wssd seeds. Is beat. Forty (o sixty loads ars not too much for sn acre of .greensward. “Most grasses which have creep ing root stocks, short Joints and pro duce long, narrow leaves In abund ance above the crown, make good lawns. Pure seed of high germina tion is of great importance In se curing a good stand of grass. It is better to use an excessive amount of seed and allow natural selection to eliminate the weak specimens rather than, to seed sparsely. Bluegrass and bent grass, If used in combination, should be sown at the rate of 3 to 5 bushels of seed to the acre. If bluegrass alone la used it should not be less than fifty pounds to the acre; seventy pounds Is bet ter. White clover. 1f added to the collection, shov’d be one peck to the acre.

By CHARLES A. WHITTLE. (Georgia State College of Agriculture) SIMPLICITY THE KEYNOTE ATTHE WILSONS’ TRBLE Scientifically Arranged Kitchen Helps in Solving the Servant Problem. I NTELLIGENT farmers have read about hog cholera preventive serum, but unfortunately few put into practice what they read. It always remains for the exceptional man to' take up any new thing and get the benefit ahead of his neigh bors. , While millions of dollars are lost by reason of hog cholera, millions are saved to progressive farmers who have made use of the serum. Two government experts discovered the process for making hog cholera preventive serum a few years ago. As the processes of manufacture and application of the serum have been bettered, its potency has been in creased until now about 90 per cent of hogs treated escape the disease where it is known to exist. The hog cholera preventive serum is recommended by its inventors and practitioners not as a cure, but a preventive; although it is true that Rome remarkable cures have been ef- ‘ even ■ T Girl Harrison Fisher Declares the Most Fetch ing Type to Be Seen in America. Gives a Beauty Recipe. 1/OS ANGELEF, April With many a flash from her famous slate Kray eyes and an occasional tilt of a nose which Harrison Fisher, the artist, has declared the most fetching type to he see in America, Maurine Ba-sinussen. “the girl with the slash ing head,” and incidentally the ori ginal Harrison Fisher girl, told how a. girl should cultivate herself to be a model for a great artist. “It takes undying sacrifice.“ she said ‘It’* a struggle against human impulses every moment. “Regularit \ of habit, untiring pa tience with the moods of the artist and the ability to catch a pose and hold it are the chief requirement of Mr. Fisher's models.” Mies Rasmussen has posed for Mr. Fisher two years.

Silt is also being pumped from the harbor to fill in the open space be tween the piling and the shore line. A temporary plank road hr.s been built | feoted when the serum was given through the exposition grounds and It Is now possible for visitors to traverse the site from Van Ness Ave nue to the Presidio. The progress of the world's fair is now visible. The Work is farther ad vanced at the present time than at any other previous exposition two years before its formal opening. Much Filling-In Done. The preliminary work includes the fllling-in of lands at Harbor View ! and the Presidio. The construction of a rock sea wall; construction of the enclosing fence. 80 per cent com plete; the erection of greenhouses and potting houses at the Presidio; the moving of buildings from the ac quired site; the Improvement of Ful ton basin, now' 90 per cent complete; the construction of roadways; the grading of sites for the various build ing"; the installation of sanitary and storm sewer systems throughout the grounds; the preliminary work of in stallation of the high pressure water system; the driving of piles for the freight ferry slips at the. foot of Buchanan Street, and the hundreds of other necessary undertaking' - which of themselves gave no visible evidence of the enormous work already being accomplished. Seven thousand men will be at work on the exhibit palaces of the exposition before the summer is over. As high as ten thousand men will be employed when the labor peak is reached. This number is exclusive of those who will be employed in the construction of State, .buildings arid foreign pavilions. "rhe Star "8 add foreign nations, it is expected, will conform to the pace set by the expo sition company in the work of con struction. x Decoration Plans Ready. The plans of the magnificent courts, the designs for the imposing sculpture and the sketches of the mural paint ings and decorations are nearing com pletion. Contracts for many of the groups of statunrj and for many of the mural paintings have already been let to prominent artists and sculptors In San Francisco. New - York and other cities of the United States. The direction of the color work has been entrusted to Jules Guerin, and Karl Bitter has charge of the sculp ture. One of the horticultural features at the exposition will he "California Canyon,” which will be located be tween the Japanese gardens and Hor ticultural Building, or north of Lom bard Street, between Baker and Lyon Streets. It will be 600 feet long and 200 feet wide. It will be adorned with l.nno red woods, inadrones, California lilac, manzanitas and California wild flowers. Beautiful Trees and Plants. A model of this beautifut canyon ha* been made by the landscape de partment. which Is in charge of John McLaren, landscape engineer. The landscape department has been extremely active during the past - 1 ... lhp dlseasP month. The nursery in Tennessee resisted tn i Hollow, which covers 14,000 square feet, is being used to great advantage. There are 250,000 small .plants, which have been raised from seeds and cut tings tn the six greenhouses, and this number is being rapidly increased every day.

This adjoins the Oregon State site. The Silver Stale plans to erect a hand some building and make a prominent showing at the coming world's fair. In a sense, the serum is an Insur ance against loss by cholera. In fact, a. more inviting live stock in surance could hardly be conceived than insurance against loss by hog cholera, the insuring company being given permission to inoculate with preventive serum. Delay Often Fatal. But the owner, as a rule,' is not. willing to put himself to the expense of such insurance until the disease has made its appearance. Then it is too late to save the sick hogs and the loss sustained usually amounts to a good deal more than it would have cost to inoculate all the hogs be forehand. Unlike vaccination for smallpox where the vaccinated person Is given a "light touch” and is thus immun ized the serum makes the pig re sistant to the disease by creating certain resistive substances that overcome the bacteria or virus of cholera whatever it may be. The fact is no one has, with certainty, isolated the germ that causes hog cholera. The resistant substance of the ser um is an anti-toxin so far as known; that. is. its action is chemical, not bacterial. It has a chemical force opposing toxins or poisons. The resistive substance mentioned Is carried in the blood of a hog which has been made hyper-immune. By hyper-immune is meant strongly immune. Hog Shot With Germs. The process of making a hog hy per-immune is an interesting one and is carried on at veterinary labora tories or hospitals equipped for the work. A pig is shot full of hog cholera germs with a syringe needle. At once there is a war to the bit ter end between these contending foreps. in the system of the hog, the battle waging along the veins and arteries tn the corpuscles and serum of the blood. Unless preventive ser um is Improperly made it wins the dav; but no sooner has it cleared the field of the enemy than it confronts about five times as many hog cholera germs as It has already slain. In fact, the veterinarian has inject ed into the hog the second time enough hog cholera germs to kill 500 ordinary hogs. But he does not send reinforcements to the preventive serum. The serum must overcome and to do so it must strengthen its resistive power. This it does and when it has gained the victory time lias arrived for tapping the veins of the hog and bottling some of the strong preventive serum for use on other hogs. If the hog reaches a nomal temperature in about ten days after injections it is said to be hyper immune. Food Value Not Hurt. Serum producing hogs are bled from the tail at intervals of one week. After the fourth bleeding in this way, the hog is again given heavy dose, of virus or cholera germs, and is again bled at intervals of a week. The final bleeding is from tlie neck of the hog when it is slaugh tered. After slaughter the meat is sold on tile market for food. It is a healthy hog, of course, because it lias The blood or serum which lias been obtained from the hyper-immune hog serves to protect a large number of hogs from the disease after it has been injected in proper doses. Some Pigs Martyrs. FTER the serum has been drawn the carcass is burned or buried, just as the carcasses of all hogs dying of cholera should be burned or buried. It is the only way to put out of the way the source of infection which this carcass will certainly prove if left for scavengers. Farmer Must Inoculate. \AIHILE it is better to have a ** trained veterinarian to inoc ulate with the serum, for the most part it will be necessary for the farmer himself to do It through Nie South where veterinarians cannot be readily obtained. The process of inoculation Is sim ple enough. Any farmer can do It. The chief thing to learn is to use sanitary measures, by sterilizing the instruments and keeping everything uncontaminated and clean in per forming the operation. The average farmer has more to learn about how to do this than anything else about the operation, not that the farmer is naturally careless in this respect— more than others not trained in sur gery. But even sanitary precautions are not difficult if the farmer will follow plain instructions. Most of the injection of hog cholera serum in the South has been done by farmers, and the fact that remarkably fine results have been obtained shows the farmer can do it successfully. The plan most In force in the South is to send out a syringe with the serum and plain printed instructions. The syringe is returned to be used by some other farmer. These syr inges are to be obtained in most of the Southern States from the State Veterinarian or from the State Col lege of Agriculture. Two Processes Used. show that 92 per cent of those treated escaped the disease—a pretty good showing it will be admitted. Thousands Dead Through Delay. But there were thousands of hogs i that died of cholera in Georgia j because the farmer was slow to take up the serum because It was more expensive than some nostrum that he was willing to try, and in a few instances because the preventive serum could not be obtained when it was desired, so great had been the demand on the laboratory of the State manufacturing it. Farmers in every State are making rapidly in creasing demands for ltog cholera serum and unless ample provisions are made, such sources of supply can not keep pace with the demand.

Pres ident Wilson does not care much about eating for the sole purpose of enjoyment.

One Is given a dose of virus or hog chol era germs of the same kind used in inoculating the hyper-immune hog This is to determine whether the virus was really strong enough to cause cholera. Other pigs are inoc- cuiated with varying amounts of oth er virus at the same time they are given the preventive serum. These tests will determine whether the hyper-immune pig in the first place resisted hog cholera germs and how strong the preventive serum is in combatting cholera. Usually, of course, the one pig that is given the injection of hog cholera germs takes the disease. These dis eased pigs serve as a source of other virus to inject into the next hog that is to be made hyper-immune. Us ually a sufficient supply of hog chol era germs can be manufactured on the premises in this way. The virus or hog cholera germs must be taken from the stek hog when it Is in the acute stage of the disease, when the germs are most active. This assures the veterinarian that he is getting the strongest possible virus for the preventive serum to combat. The stronger the fight the stronger the preventive serum will be if it wins. Virus and Serum Alike. To all appearances the virus and the preventive serum are alike. Both are drawn in the same way from the hogs. They are both In the serum of the blood. The pig that manufactures virus soon dies of cholera If it is not slaughtered before it dies. The pur pose is to slaughter it near the end of the acute stage of the disease. It has served great usefulness by being sacrificed that other hogs may be saved. The meat of the vims pig is not fit for use because it is afflicted with cholera. As soon as it Is slaughtered TACOMA.
