walks with their bordering of historic
trees and shrubs without finding the
trip a tour of delight.
Interest School Children.
1t is part of the plan of Supt. Hess
to interest the school children in the
garden, and to this end he is ready at
any time to arrange with the teachers
to take their'classes on personally con-
Quoted excursions through the houses

tail treasures which will give them a

growing on the tree and explains that
the Hottentots make persons accused
of crime eat them as a test of their
innocence AS the nuts are deadly
poison and the accused usually die. the
trial is exceedingly simple.
Greatest Curiosity.
One of the greatest curiosities in the
great greenhouse is creeping fis, a
little plant with leaves about the size
of dime or smaller, and stem no

a large tub of earth. forced IT'S way

leaves of green. Another peculiar
growth is that of the staghorn. fern
which springs out from the bark or a
tree and puts forth leaves of the shape
of the horn of the stag. The fiddle
plant has leaves as large as and of
the shape of a violin.

BOTANIC GARDEN
REMOVAL REVIVED
Supt. Hess Plans to Make COL
lection One of Wonders
of World.
SCHEME is T0LOCATE
IN ROCK CREEK PARK
Valuable Specimens to Remain in
Present Plot Even After New
Avenue Is Built.

Throwing open the Botanic Garden to
visitors today and regularly on
sundays hereafter from 10 am. to 8
pm. aud the Institution of an educa-
tional exhibit for school children has
revived interest in the proposition to
remove the garden to Rock Creek
Park, where it can be developed into
an arboyctuin that will be one of the
wonders of the world.
This is out an opening stage of the
the new superintendent of the garden,
not only to make 1t popular show
place of the capital. but to make it
serve u higher and broader purpose in
educating the people of the country.
The marvellous museum of plant life
now crowded into comparatively
small conservatory, in the very heart
Of the city. is scarcely realized 1t is
to give this collection proper setting
and room for growth that it has been
proposed to remove it to Rock Creek
Park, and this legislation is still pend
ing before Congress.
Favors Conservatories Downtown.
But even when this proposition has
been carried out and a broad avenue
sweeps through the present garden.
from the Capitol to the Washington
Monument. it is the hope of Supt. Hess
and others interested in this important
branch of the governments work that
two large conservatories will remain
at the present location. In these it is
proposed that valuable specimens
which could not be removed from their
present bed may be preserved, and
that visitors to Washington may be
given an opportunity to view there an
exhibit OF some of the most interesting
plants and their products.
That the old iron fence now sur
rounding the garden will not be torn
down for some time is the hope of
Supt. Hess. because he feels he needs
it to help preserve the many valuable
and historic trees scattered over the
grounds. until he has had an oppor-
tunity to remove most of them to the
proposed new location in Rock Creek
Park. Even if the dedication of the
Grant statue is held before the re-

There is no reason on earth,' says
Supt Hess why the United States
should not maintain the finest Botanic
Garden in the world. and that is what
We hope TO make. a more suitable
spot does not exist than the upper
reaches of Rock Creek Park, and we
could there deyelop and add to our col
lection until nothing could equal it
anywhere. We have there natural ad-
CaEtages that were not possessed even
by the famous Kew Gardens, for we
could display our trees and plants in
natural groupings, whereas at Kew it
was necessary TO do much artificial
work.

continued Mr.. Hess, II would suggest
that ii is not necessary to tear down
the main conservatory. On the con-
rrary. would remove the Rartholdi

RURAL CREDITS REFORM

In cndcavoring to solve the rural
credits problem to the satisfaction of
tho farming and investing interests of
this country, the government has sent
investigators abroad to study systems
used successfully in foreign countries
and 1t has also called before its COM
mittecs various foreign authorities
rendered competent by long eXpericn &c
to give testimony Among these Is
David Lubin, founder of the Internal
tional Institute Of Agriculture at Rome
Mr. Iubin makes his home In Rome
but he has represented this country in
the deliberations OF the institute of
agriculture. For some months now he
has been in this country. studying con
nitions and tcstifNinS before u comn'i
sion at Washington. He believes that
the United states should follow Ger
many i'll instituting here a system sim
liar to the prussian landschaft To a
reporter of the New York Times he
recently spoke of the fact that the
Prussian landschaft had been in sue
cessful operation for 1862 years and
that there has never been failure
since it's foundation. In answer to
the question. What is a landschaft;
how does it operate. and what are it's ad
vantaGes?" Mr.. Lubin referred the in
the delegates from Canada and the
United states, and who were sent to
Germany to study the system.
In this explanation DR.. Brodnitz com
parcs the position of the farmer who
desired to borrow money under the old
system and the farmer who desires to
borrow money under the landschaft
Under the old system the farmer went
to local bank or money lender and
asked for loan. If times were bad
which was often the reason why the
farmer was unable to find n person q
bank willing to lend money. so he was
compelled to hire the services OF n
broker, who would negotiate the loan
for him, taking commission The
person who made the loan generally
placed his own valuation on the prom
crty, or, If an independent assessor
was employed, he had To be paid by
the farmer Then, when the trans
action was complete, the farmer usual
ly had to pay close to 5 per cent in
tercst. After the loan had run for,
say. ten years. 1t was the custom of
the lenders 10 ask mn increase of /
per cent In the interest rate, and this
the farmer was generally compelled to
pay Thus, under the old system, the
farmer was at great trouble and ex-
pcnse in getting his loan.

RiCllrlOnd's Onnnrtunity
