Take hope, ye pickers of dandelion and plan tain out of the front lawn. Look not forward te a summer of rs ot of | and’ cuss-wordy la: Ss bor keeping weeds out of the lawn. For, aftet 20 years of experimentation something to case that labor has heen discovered. fi The ‘Rhode Island State College has Pils nanced that its experiment station has discov- ered a fertilizer that will grow grass and destroy weeds. 4 This dreamvof garderiers, a weedless lawn, is ~ possible with out trouble pr expense, the ean- nouncement says. : Perfectly ‘simple: Merely use ammonium sulphate in the place of nitrate of soda in the regular application of “fertilizer. / ‘ og . aN a “The “why” of the discovered, as the discov- erers explain it, is that gardeners:almost univer- sally have supplied nitrogen, the chief element in grass food in the shape of nitrate of soda. That in time creates an alkaline soil condition especially favorable to weed growths. Grass isy crowded out. ya eo Then,-by using the not more expensive ammon- ium sulphate in the same quantities, proper ni- trogen is supplied and the soil kept in an acid condition under which grass develops hest, but in which weeds are weakened. , The fountain of youth and perpetual motion woukl be great. dis 8, but the discovéry; of\a method for growing the weedless lawn-is worth the 20 years devoted to it. - "3 THE COST OF BEING POLITE . | The American public could. gave, $3,000,000 a year in telegraph tolls by: discontinuing the use of the word “please’-in telégrams. But what profit hath it that the people save $8,000,000 a year,‘ and‘ lose something of the sweetness of courtesy. There may be efficiency engineers and cost economists, hunting foxjpennies to save, who will be shocked by such seeming waste of words and money. But Americans, spending $3,000,- 000 ‘a year on one! courteous word ‘Ke investing well and wis ; It is really gratifying to find America spend- ing so muich_on one word of courtesy when so many of us are lax in words and deeds of court- esy that cost/us nothing at all. : Courtesy is (a sweetening element in the ordi- nary ‘relations of owr common life.’ We are not. impolite people, but we are in a hurry and in our hurry, we take the rougher way when the smooth- r one is‘so much easier. — -. It was a source of never-ending delight Grong men of the A. E. F. to hear ticketsellers at*rail road stations and clerks in postoffices in France, say “merci monsietfr” (thank.you, sir,) when the sale of a'stamp or ticket was concluded. It was as if. one had done them a service’ by buying a ticket or a stamp.\ Courtesy has be- coige second-nature among the French. Recenfl¥” SOME TEeWSpapers have been award: ing cash prizes to polite folks discovered by re- porters, These were special rewards, but, in truth, courtesy always has paid, one way or an- other, The old nursery rhyme said it well: Kind hearts are gardens, Kind thoughts are roots, Kind words are blossoms, H mined, and a campaign of misinformation finally | Kind deeds are fruits. HOW THEY WASTE Herbert Hoover, during the war, had much to say to American housewives about waste. He told them how much of the sorely needed food | was going into the garbage pail; why it should, not ¢o there, and how they might keep jit. out. They reduced food wastage, and did their bit to- ward winning the war. : That, as you may remember, gave Hooyer anj international reputation as an expert on waste. Considering him in that light it is only reason- able that’a world should be impressed with his| * most recent observations on waste. 4 Now he is talking abont, wastes in Ameriean i sak ears They are, he asserts, responsible or unemployment and business failur ar; ue Tae ry iness failures, large * Among production wastes Hoover lists labor! . conflicts (strikes and lockouts), losses in labor; _turnover, failure to obtain maximum production , of the individual, poor coordination of great in-| | American business—labor and capital.
