|GROW POTATOES
lin Central PARK

NEW YORK, April Potato
growing On land valued at some
thing like 100000 an acre is to
be tried in New York this season, Y
the advice of experts from the de-
partment of agriculture in Wash
ington is followed by the local park
authorities. The growing of either
potatoes or corn Is declared neces-
sary to get the soil in Central park,
this city's great pleasure ground,
into the right condition SO that grass
will grow luxuriantly. The potato
crop is likely to be adopted as be-
ing more efficacious than the corr
crop. The park soil, 1t is said, needs
rejuvenation because the keeping ol
a single variety of vegetation grow
| ing continuously resulted in deteri
grafton. Were resoiling instead o.
the crop rotation plan to be adopted
the estimated cost would be between
100000 and 100000.

SALSBERG PLANS
FOR ECONOMY
GAVE NOTICE OF OFFERING A
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
CITY TO LET WATER MAIN I'M
PROVEMENTS BY CONTRACT.

The feature of the council meet
ing last night was the announce
ment of Councilman Salsberg that
he would have prepared resolution
authorizing the city to award con-
tract for laying the water mains
and making the proposed improve
ments to the water system east OF
Fifth street. Mr.. Salsberg stated he
believed that all such work should
be let out by contract, and as his
plans OF economy by reducing the
wages for laborers had been defeat
ed he would ask that such resolu-
ton be prepared and that the city
engineer prepare plans for laying
the water mains that would enable
contractors to prepare their bids.
In answer to question by Mr..
Salsberg, City Engineer Guilland
stated he could prepare the plans by
next Monday night at which time
the resolution will be presented and
the clerk authorized to advertise for
bids
The laying Of the water mains
east of Fifth street will be one of
the largest improvements ever made
to the water system since being &C
quired by the city. The pipe for
this improvement was ordered few
weeks ago and the various contracts
amount to approximately $4,000.
An interesting discussion relative
to the duty OF the city to lay the
service pipes to the property line
was the outgrowth of the improve
ment discussion. Several mem
bers of the council hold the view
that the city should lay all service
pipes to the property line, as is done
by the gas company or corporations
handling similar service. The fact
that the water pipes are not laid II
the center of the street was cited al
an injustice to the citizen who !!
compelled to cross the street tt
reach the water main, and was used
as an argument in favor of the cit!
laying all pipes to the property line
1t was also stated unless such poll
cy was inaugurated the improve
ment of East Main street propert!
would result in many holes beins
cut through the pavement which
the city contemplates laying before
winter sets in.
The council granted the petition
of a number of citizens asking tina
the wages of laborers employed IL
laying the water pipe be restored t;
1925 per day. At the meeting helt
last week the wages of laborers wer'
reduced to 25 cents per hour.
The question of working the cit,
prisoners on the city Improvement
was brought before the council b.
Police Commissioner Phillips and re
suited In a motion prevailing whic!
provides for these men to be turned
over to Water Superintendent
Smith to be worked on the improve
ments to the water system.
City Engineer Guilland reporte'
the cost of extending the intak
pipe of the water system above til
mouth of Lindsey creek to be abo,
$4,000. He also suggested that ii
urse of Lindsey creek might b
Hanged SO that the outlet woul
