AN ACRE OF RIPE
STRAWBERRIES SOON
Henry Kirklin Says Fruit
Will be Ready to Eat
This Month.
HAS 23OO LETTUCE HEADS
Old Negro Has Made Notable
Success to Truck Farmer
Here.

Out on West SwitZler street, about
May %, there will be ripe strawber-
ries covering three-fOurths of an acre
of ground. The berries will be thor
ough-bred and Henry Kirklin, an old
negro who is garden expert, will
guarantee them.
KirkIin owns three acres of garden
space and this morning he was busy
taking orders over the phone for all
sorts of plants. COlumbians buy their
plants from him and later, when he
runs a market wagon, their vegeta-
bles. In one space he has planted by
hand 1900 lettuce heads, not the
loose leaf variety. but the compact
heading kind; he has set out in
straight rows 700 cabbage plants;
two or three thousand sweet potato
plants; rows upon rows of beets,
which are just beginning to come up
and satisfy; spring onions, radishes,
sweet and hot pepper plants and
University Missourian., 1912-05-17

numberless tomatoes. About the first
of July all his beets and plants will
come up, he says, and he'll plant
from 1,5OO to 1000 celery stalks in
their place.
Henry Kirklin knows how to run
a garden. He has been at it twenty
years. Most of his knowledge about
vegetables has come from experience.
and some from working at the HOrti-
cultural building with Prof. j. C.
Whitten, who not infrequently takes
his pupils out to see Kirklin's gar
den. According to the old man, any
of Prof. Whitten's students are well
come to what they want out there.
He has never been troubled with
a drought At the head of his three
acres is a little lake, from which he
has always been able to get enough
water for his garden in summer.
Henry takes great delight in the
high quality of his plants. There's
no humbuggery here" he said. He
knows breeds of plants as we'll as
cattle man knows breeds of his cat
tie. He uses system in the planting
and cultivation of his ground. Diff
ferent sizes of every vegetable are
grown, each size to follow up the for
mer. He has three hundred feet of
glass covering and "a large supply of
canvas tarpaulin to use when climate
make it necessary. Wealth
er forecasts keep him posted, and he
seldom loses plant. During the
winter he spends his time largely in
on vegetable cultivation.

Y. Nj. G. A. GETS WORK FOR go
They Have Earned $12,:s9O.42 Since
September.

They Have Earned $12,:s9O. ~ Since
September.
The Y. M. C. A. employment bu-
reau has aided about 25O men to
work their way through the Univer-
sity this year. OF this number many
have done only enough work for their
rooms. but others have earned
enough to pay all of their expenses.
The total number of hours that have
been worked by applicants for work
at the employment bureau is 62,47S.
And in this time the students have
earned $12,39O.42.
Every application filed with the
employment bureau is considered.
The members of the association are
not favored, but every applicant must
fill out an application blank that
gives the secretary a pretty good
line on the character of the applicant.
And this system makes it easier to
give the right job to the right man.
1t also aids in keeping out men who
do not need employment. Last fall
after a meeting of the applicants six
men came to the secretary and asked
that their names be taken from the
list of applicants as they did not have
to support themselves. but did not
know there were so many men who
did when they applied for work.
J. S. Moore, secretary of the Y.
NJ. C. A., says that it is not true that
the self supporting students do
school work below the average in the
University. The grades of the 100
MEN who have got the most work
through the employment bureau Of
the Y. NJ. c. A. were obtained from
the registrar last semester and aver
aged higher than the average of the
men students in the University.

USES AUTOCHR0ME
TO MAKE PICTURES
J. c. Strauss, st. Louis Ar
tist, Brings Newest Photog-
raphy Machine Here.
REPRODUCES ANY COLORS
Films Look Like Real Tinted
Portraits When They are
Finished.

The French autOcrOme is being in.
troduced into Columbia. this week fol
the first time by J. C. Strauss the St
Louis artist. The autochrome is the
newest thing in the photography
world. The finished picture has the
appearance of portrait that has
been tinted. The camera takes every
color. The film in the camera is
made of grass and all the developing
is done by acids. The human hand
never touches it until it is completed.
Only one portrait can be made from
each exposure, for the film is used as
the finished product.
The new process of photography is
a French product. Mr.. Strauss is
among the first of the American ar
fists to use it. All the films are i'm
ported from Paris. Much of the de-
veloping work must be done in a
room that is entirely dark, hence it
is very hard to make all the expos
ures good. Probably fifty out of ev-
cry hundred pictures are ruined.
When the portrait is finished it is
fastened in the top of a leather case
In the bottom of the case is a mirror
that reflects the portrait in the Origi-
nal cOlOrs. One portrait sells for $50.
Mr.. Strauss is probably the most
widely known artist in America. He
was the first American to be made a
member of the Academy of Arts in
Paris. The Strauss studio in St. Louis
is one of the largest and best equip
ped in America. He has a collection
of eighteen hundred autographed pOr-
traits of prominent st. Louis people.
In his fire proof vault he has over a
quarter of a million negatives. These
are arranged so it is possible to
find a negative and reproduce a por-
trait that was taken many years ago.
This is Mr.. Strauss first visit to
Columbia. The trips to the country
are made merely to get away from
the city. He goes into the home and
takes pictures. People are diffAent
when you meet them in their homes"
said Louis Strauss, who is helping his
father. 1T is change for us, and We
find that the experience that We get
is great"
Mr.. Strauss recently presented a
large number of portraits to the per-
art gallery in the new library
in ST. Louis. All of them were pOr-
traits of well-known St. Louis people
who are dead. 1t is probable that
from his trips to the different parts
of the State he will start a collection
of prominent families of the State
and present them to some art gallery.
