\ SOLDIERS' GRAVES BEING BEAUTIFIED Trees Planted in World War Section at Arlington—Land- scaping Plans Pushed. With the planting of a row of sugar | maples through the World War sec- tion of the Arlington National Ceme- tery this Spring, a start has been made to carry out the plan approved by the Fine Arts Commission by which this part of the cemetery is to be beautified to conform to the older sections. The long rows of stone slabs over the graves of soldiers brought home from France, to which one corner of the tract has been given over, now present a rather desclate appearance in comparison to the diverse terrain, grassy plots and leafy avenues which break up the graves of the veterans of older wars. Further progress in beautifying this section will be made from year to year as funds are obtalned Push Landscape Plans. The row of maples extends from the #outh gate and joins a row of older maples reaching to the Fort Myer ate. Much work has been done this Spring in getting the soil in the World War section in good condition to go ahead with other landscaping plans. _An innovation has been made this Spring in the foliage plots near the Lee mansion where the numbers of known and unknown dead in the ceme- | tery stand out in lettering of white Jeaves. The figures have been brought | up-to-date to May 1. The words “known are ‘planted in letters formed by euonymus, known in old-fashioned gardens as “carpet bedding,” with the white leaves set off against a border of red leaved alternanthera. Against these words the figures are planted in | echevrias leaves, giving a slightly different shade of white from the cuonymus. The figures are: Known. 29,918; unknown, 4,713. DR. PA?TERS‘ONVDEAN OF FARMING COLLEGE University of Maryland Experi- ment Station Direotor Given New Appointment. Bpecial Di ch to The Star. COLLEGE PARK, Md.. Ma The board of regents of the University of Maryland has approved a recom- mendation of President Albert F. Woods to appoint Dr. H. J. Patterson, director of the agricultural experiment station, as dean of the college of agri- culture, and Prof. P. W. Zimmerman, | w hc_» has headed the latter department, assistant dean Relations between the college of agriculture and the experiment sta- tion have been close, and many of the important projects have been carried out under direction of men jointly employed. The Purnell act, passed by the last Congress, provides for expan sion in investigations relating to all phases of agriculture, and It was agreed that this could be best accom- plished by having a single head for the two groups, with an associate dean who would have charge of the detalls of the college work. Dr. Patterson came to the Maryland Agricultural College in 1888 to fill the vosition as chemist at the experiment station. He advanced to director of the experiment station, and from 1913 19 1917 served as president of Mary- land Agricultural College. During that period the work was completely or- kanized and plans for the enlargement into Maryland State College and eventually, in 1920, into a university were formulated. Dr. Patterson is a fellow in the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a mem- ber of the Society for the Promotion of Agricultural cience and many {t“hle!; scientific and educational organ- ns. and “unknown $200,000 Bridge Bonds Sold.
