The site of the exposition takes ev
ery advantage of the combination of
harbor and hills that give San Fran
cisco Its chief charm. The main fea
tures of the exposition will be located
at Harbor View, on San Francisco bay
midway between the ferry building
and the Golden Gate, and the perma
nent buildings to remain after the ex
position Is over will be erected in the
west end of Golden Gate park, which
fronts on the Pacific ocean. These
sites and intermediate locations will be
connected by o marine boulevard that
sweeps from Harbor View through (be
Presidio to the Golden Gate and then :
tarns south to Golden Gate park. A
trackless trolley will take visitors over
this magnificent scenic boulevard from
Harbor View tbrongh the military res

FARMERS'
POTATO SCAB
A Nfw Jersey Correspondent writes:
"1 Hnd that my potatoes are badly
infested with what seems to me to
answerthe description of potatoscab."
In treating potatoes for scab it U
best to use one pound of formalin to
thirty gallons of water. This treat
ment should be given the seed before
the potatoes are cut, arid after ' relt"
tng they should be scattered out and
allowed to dry unless you are ready to
{riant them Immediately. After using
the solution for two or three hours it
should be replenished, because when
left open it loses its strength very
rapidly.
We can see no reason why the kero
sene barrels would in any way hinder
this treatment. We believe it will be
all right to use them in treating your
potatoes. As far as disinfecting the
planter isconcerned, we do not believe
this will be necessary If you treat the |
?eed properly.
The fungus disease called scab has
been known to live for at least six
years in the soil, even though no
potatoes were grown In that field.
Because of this, It la a good plan to
rotate your crops and to plant your
treated seed In fields where potatoes
have not been grown for at least four
or Ave years.
The soil that contains an acid is
injurious to the growth of potato
scab, hence the application of sul
phate of ammonia, suiphateof potash,
kanit, or acid phosphate will tend to
free the soli of the scab fungus. On
the other hand, the presence of lime,
wood ashes, or large quantities of
stable manure, will aid or'encourage
the growth of potato scab.
LITTLE THINGS ABOUT THE HOUSE
By Grace MaAian Smith of the 1 H C Service
Bureau
Time was when people who could
not atTorjt expensive Jewelry and real
lace, owned no jewelry and wore their
garments untrlmmed. Our ancestors,
with a foolish pride supposed to indi
cate birth and breeding, eschewed
Imitations. This was a protest against
pretense, but the medicine became
worse than the disease. Gaudy. cheap,
shoddy material Is an offense against
good taste, but Inerpenslve things
need not be Inartistic. Because you
cannot take a trip to Europe Is no
reason for refusing a day's outing
You cannot afford the original Ange
las, but you can have a good print of
it, and most of us with untrained
?yes will see quite as much in the
print as we would In the original.
There la a 'difference between the
inexpensive and cheap, so don't let us
derMea ttilnj simply because It didn't
cost a mini of money.
How many things are you going with
out that you could buy Jor a very
modest sum? Suppose it is nothing
more than a sharp knife for paring
vegetables and you have wasted time,
wasted vegetables, spoiled your own
temper, and annoyed the men folks
by trying to get an edge on a knife
i that was worn out years ago. Yet for
] ten cents? tell centos you can buy a
paring knife that will la?t ftt least a,
yk&r.
i You have spent hours beating up
eggs witli a fork. A Dover egg-beater
coats a quarter, and a whip ten cents.
You a r? short of pans, of crocks, of
kettles, which can be purchased for
from tefl to thirty-five cents. You
are going without spoons enough to
set the table when there are guests,
because you can't afford to pay eight
dollars for them, but you can buy
artistic spoons of white metal which
no one unless accustomed to seeing
them would distinguish from real
silver. Sometimes It is china towels-- I
you are using worn, Tinty rags; you
can get all the towels you need for ten
cents apiece. Or, you are wearing an
old dress, too heavy and warm, Instead I
of the cool, fresh-looking one you !
could buy ready-made for from sixty j
cents to one dollar
No, I am notadvisingcheap, shoddy
things. Always buy the best you can
afford, if your meansare limited buy
the inexpensive yet most satisfactory
articles that you" can. Only don i
make the mistake of complaining be
cause these inexpensive things don't
last as well as the more costly ones
"The first thing you forget about an
article Is what you paid for it." So if
It Is something you are going to keep,
something really worth wiT.To.'or some
thing which is costing you almost as
much as the better article, buy the
best. But at the same time it is not
a good policy to get along without
something that will help you iv v>?tr
work Just because you cannot buy uie
most expensive made.

GRASSES
Reply to Inquiry received from R. T
Boetwlck, Parshail, Colorado: " W'.'J
you be kind enough .to furnish me
with what information you have avail
able on the subject of grasses suitable
for this location; best methods of seed
ing; preparation of the soil, etc.?"
In the vicinity of Parshaii, Colorado,
the beat gran for haying purposes is
timothy. A much batter combination
is made by oaing timothy and alaike.

mixture.
Besides these twocrops, brome grass,
or Bromis Inemns, does well in your
locality. Upon the farm of Louis Kick,
situated within a short distance of
your farm, brome grass has been doing
wonderfully, well. Meadow Fescue
will do well also in your locality.
From our experience wi th the grasses
and from an observance of the native
vegetation, we would say that the
timothy and brome grass are the two
best members of the grass family for
your locality. -The brome grass will
thrive with timothy and alsike under
good conditions of Irrigation which
i usually prevail onthe developed farms
j of that community.
1 A disk grain drill with grass seeder
i attachment is as good a tool to be
I used as any. The soil should- be pre
pared by deep plowing. The plowing
should be followed with the disk and
peg tooth harrow, if possible the same
half day, in order to work the furrow
slice down into a good, well-mellowed
seed bed before it has tim^ to dry out
or lose its tilth. If seeded alone,
about 20 nop 'ids of brome grass should
be used par acre U needed with the
other combination, the amount varies
with the proportion it is desired to
obtain A Vify good Combination i*
broine gra.?s l.*> pounds aPd alsike 5
pounds Another good comWuatiOfi
is brome grass 12 pounds, timothy iu"
to 12 pounds, and alsike 5 to 6' pounds.
It is well lo harrow lightly after the
drill.
The land should be well irrigated
but should not be kept flooded. There
is a notion prevalent in the vicinity of
Parshall that hay can only be grown
where it is kept flooded. This view is
L erroneous. The land should be well
| irrigated, then the water should be
withdrawn until the crop is needing
moisture when it should be irrigated
again. ~ Although this is contrary to
the views of many ranchmen, it is
borne out by expurience and experi
I ment.
