Executive to Occupy the
Scott Residence on
Lafayette Square.
OFFICES ALREADY MOVED
Expected That Mr.. Roosevelt Will Take
Up Quarters on His Return to Wash
ington - The White House Being
Thoroughly Changed

Assistant Secretaries Loeb and Barnes
expect to take actual possession today of
the new temporary office building, %
Lafayette Square, secured for the use of
the President while the changes 10 the
White House are being made. Much prog
ress was made yesterday in the removal
of records, furniture and other belong
ings from the White House to the new
quarters, and today official business will
be transacted at the new location.
As the lease of the Scott residence was
made for both house and furnishings, but
little furniture will be taken from the
Presidents private rooms in the Executive
Mansion for use in the new building. The
White House effects will be stored until
the work OF renovation is completed.
There has been moved into the new
quarters the large mahogany table of the
old Cabinet room, around which the ad-
yisers of many Presidents have gathered
TO discuss affairs of state, and the mas
sive desks used by Secretary Cortelyou
and the assistant secretaries. In general,
use will be made of as much as possible
of the furniture rented with the new
building and only as much of the old
found to be more convenient for official
use.
Arrangement of Offices.
The first floor of the temporary White
House will be occupied as the Presidents
official headquarters. This arrangement
will doubtless meet with the cordial ap-
proval of many well known public men,
who often found the climb up the long
staircase at the Write House a weari-
some exertion. The handsome apartment
previously used as the dining room will
be the Cabinet room henceforth and will
also be used by the President as his
private office.
The next room toward the front of the
building will be Secretary Cortelyou's
Office, to which win be admitted promi-
nent callers having personal business
with the President.
The main parlor, looking out upon
Lafayette Square. will be the general
reception room for all callers and as well
for the use OF the newspaper representa-
tives.

Government Feels Need
of Scientists to Fur

MOT ENOUGH GRADUATES
Department Compelled to Educate Men
to Solve Problems-Interestin Paper
by C. C. James on Public Schools
Teaching the Subject.

Secretary Wilson addressed the dele
gates TO the convention of the Farmers
Institute Workers last night. He pointed
out that there is in this country dearth
of scientists qualified along special agri-
cultural lines, and that this is owing to
the fact that the schools and colleges do
not 10 a sufficient extent include the
study Of agriculture in their curriculae.
The Department of Agriculture, he
said. has often found it necessary when
they wished certain problems solved to
educate men to solve them, as they could
not get these men from the universities.
He indorsed the idea Of beginning the
education OF a farmer along practical
lines in carly youth. IL agriculture was
to be his life work.
Problems of Department.
Secretary Wilson told in a very in
teresting and instructive manner Of the
various problems with which the de-
partment is confronted in its endeavors
to make the waste places fruitful and
the desert blossom as rose, and the
manner in which they are overcome.
Prof c. c. James read an interesting
paper at the evening sess' -. teach
ing agriculture in the schools,
and the influence the farmers organi-
zation could exert in fastening this in
noVation. He was followed by Miss
Breed, Of Norfolk. Va, who told Of
the work being done in the rural dis
tricts Of Virginia toward teaching the
people practical domestic science.
Miss Emma s. Jacobs director OF
the cooking schools OF this city, read
a paper explaining her methods OF in
