MOTT-SMITH NOW
HAS another
POSITION
Governor Frear Bids Aloha to
C0-WorkerS and Sails for
Mainland

After a farewell private conference
in the executive chamber with each
territorial department head, signing q
few final communications, and advis-
ag his private secretary and stenog-
gapher to take a vacation before his
successor arrives, Governor FTear
walked out of the capitol building
this morning, and few minutes later
boarded the Wilhelmina, sailing for
the mainland.
He said he had no idea how long
he would be gone, but expects to
take what he considers the first real
vacation since he accepted the execu-
tive chair, six years ago.
For the first time in many years.
the executive chamber looks desert
ed. The governor finished a most
thorough house-cleaning, leaving only
a few law books on the desk, a map
or two and in the top drawer a copy
of the official rules of etiquette be-
queathed him by Governor George r.
Carter when that official stepped
down and out.
One Of the last persons to pay re-
spects to the departing governor was
Land Commissioner Joshua d. Tuck
er, who literally arose from a sick
bed to fulfill the formality. Tucker
became the victim of dengue Satur-
day. and in the last three days has
lost eighteen pounds in weight
Though by no means a shadow as yet,
be looked to be a very sick man, and
shortly after bidding his chief good
bye, returned to his home.
Very little Official action will be
taken by me during the governors
absence" said Mott-Smith, now the
acting governor, End only routine
and most urgent affairs will receive
attention.
He issued commission immedi-
ately, reappointing A. r. Keller to
the board of health Keller's term
expired August 81, placing him in the
same dilemma encountered by DIR. ].
S, p. Pratt recently. which is that the.
Office becomes vacant on the expira-
ton of members term and remains
SO until new appointment or reap
pointment is made.
In transacting the little business
that will come before him as acting
governor, Mott-Smith will occupy the
executive chamber, returning to his
own Office to handle matters of the
territorial secretary, chairman of the
public utilities commission and chair

Giesen explained to Circuit Judge
Whitney yesterday that the reason
he did not pay his former wife, Mar

estibles, and believed the amount to-
tailed the monthly sum required by
the court. Decisions on the point,
whether Van Giesen is guilty of con-
tempt of court, is reserved until 3

For the Invalid.

Really sanitary and immensely at.
tractive looking is sick room set OF
napery made Of stiff paper in lace pat
tern and comprising doiles for meat,
bread and cake plates, as well as an
entire covering for the tray. Rather
less expensive are the paper doilies
OF square shape, hemstitched or GRO
chet-edged-in effect-and stamped to
initiate the newest embroidery de-
sign, and for state occasions, when the
invalid entertains in her chamber,
there are doilies of silver and gold
lace paper which are very stunning in
deed. Any of these paper sets of
napery are preferable to the ones in
linen, as they make possible the use
OF absolutely fresh and spotless serv-
ice each tine the invGlids tray is car.
ried upstairs.
If the invalid is sometimes able to
sit up for an hour or two at time, he
or she should be provided with one OF
the new book rests, which may be ad.
justed to the position of the reader
by means of the clamp which fastens
the contrivance to the arm of the
chair. Even more convenient, in case
the invalid is sometimes strong
enough to write letter, is the reviv
ed model of the Windsor chair, having
a right arm wide enough to serve
as a desk that will ho.d a pad of pa
per, an ink bottle and a postage

INCUBATION OF SOIL
Medium Red Glover viii Develop
N6dues in Abundance.
After Lands Have Been Brought Into
Fairly Good Condition Of Fertility

mus and Nitrogen,
CIV j e sEIvERsN

Since the ability of legumlnous
plants to supply themselves with nit.
rogen depends on the action of Ger.
tain bacteria, It is necessary that the
proper bacteria exist In the soil In or
der that they may attack the roots OF
the developed seedlings and produce
nodules. Ordinarily, medium red or
alsike clover will develop nodules In
abundance, on soils containing much
sand. Alfalfa and many other le-
gumes, however, often fail TO develop
the proper nodules or develop thSm
only TO a certain limited extent until
they have been grown on the same
piece Of ground for three or four years.
II is frequently desirable, therefore,
to inoculate the soil with the proper
bacteria. Ordinarily this Is best done
by the distribution over the ground OF
soil on which the corresponding
legumes have been grown for some
time and on which they have shown
a good development of nodules. The
rate OF development of nodules on
the land so treated will, OF course
depend on the amount of inoeulating
soil and the thoroughness Of its mix
ture through the ground. Where such
inoculating soil is readily access
ible with only the cost of a short haul
1t is best to use 1000 to 1000 pounds
