ME selection OF an uptown site
for the new home of the Peter
i Cooper Hewltts, who have al
ways been associated with the
residential life of Gramercy Park, raises
all sorts of questions as to just what
this move may mean in the social life
of the city.

Of ground on Cathedral Parkway. How
will this distance be bridged? There Is
great difference OF opinion on the
subject, but none can close his eyes
to facts. and this means that when the
Peter Cooper Hewltts transfer them
selves and their household gods a great
change will fall upon the region with
which for so long their family name
has been associated.

HEAVY SOIL EROSION IN SOUTH

The following statement regarding
soil erosion in the south is taken from
the annual report of the bureau Of
soils, Y. s. department Of agriculture:
In a study of soil erosion in the
south, 1t has been found that large
areas are lost to agriculture annually
through erosion. In some states vast
areas, amounting to as much as so
per cent of the arabic land of these
sections, have been abandoned. The
character of the erosion varies with
the type of the soil. Usually, on the
heavy clay soils, sheet" or surface
erosion is found. With increasing pro
portion of sand in the soil the erosion
changes to the "shoestring' type, then
TO the gully type with rounded edges,
and finally to the gullies with caving
sides. The most rapid erosion seems
10 occur in soils having layer OF salt
or clay at the surface and a su|bstra-
tum of sand. This condition usually
leads to erosion Of the deep gully type,
which is difficult to check and un-
profitable to reclaim.
All methods for prevention and
control are based either on increasing
the capacity for absorbing the water
as 1t falls, or on descreasing the veloc-
ity OF the run-off A new method in
use in one locality is the construction
OF what are known as "chrlstophers, "
the distinctive feature Of this plan ly-
ing in the manner of disposing of
storm waters. Across an incipient
gully is built dam, through which
is passed sewer pipe connected with
an upright pipe on the upper side Of
the dam. Water fills the valley until
It reaches the top of the upright pipe,
and then flows down this pipe into the
next field. The water left standing
below the mouth of the upright pipe
is gradually removed by tile drain.
1t is also demonstrated in the south
that other crops must be grown than
those requiring clean culture, as do
cotton, corn and tobacco.

SUBSCRIPTIONS RATES:
A BUSINESS OFFICE.

A newspaper correspondent who Wis
tied the headquarters of Gen. Joffre
short time ago reported that what
most impressed him was the absence
OF all the excitements and trappings
+, with which the imagination has invest
ed warfare, says the Dallas News. He
remarked that if it were not for the
circumstance that every one seen was
in military uniform, he could easily
have been made to believe that these
were the headquarters of some huge
business enterprise. For one thing,
they were far removed from the bat
tie line, so far that only occasionally
could hear the report Of the largest
guns. There were no excited goings
and comings a-horseback, but instead
the arrival and departure now and
then of an automobile. Typewrters
were in plenty, as were also telephone
and telegraph instruments, and the
clatter and jingle of these made up
the total OF the noise and confusion
that were to be noted 1t was all very
sedate and prosy, the antithesis of
the scene and imagination would have
painted if left to its own devices.
