The ancients began regulating
the liquor traffic as far back Il as
twenty three centuries before the
birth of Christ.

drunkenness was getting SO bad in

enacted liquor regulators in. the
now celebrated Khammurabi code OF
Babylonian law. .9s>;;sss
Bablonia was in the valley be

DAWNING OF THE DRY ERA"

Wartime prohibition went into
effect last midnight and the nation
is theoretically dry, but owing to
uncertainty as to the status of
beverages of percentage Of 2.75
or less CT alcohol, saloons in wet
territory are not forced to stop the
sale of beer and light wines.
The Department Of JJ.--5tlce takes
the stand that since the matter is
in the courts, Federal officials will
net make arrests at present but
warning was sent out that manufac-
ture ard sale of such drinks was
at the risk Of future prosecution.
Railroad officials in Washington
last night estimated that at least
10000 persons visited Baltimore dur
ing yesterday.
Around Union Station and the
terminal of the w. B. and A., during
the period yesterday up to midnight,

andaians helped to- form the ccnges-
tion.
Temperance movements and probi-
bit;on clusades date back at least
5000 years! 1t was China that
first treid to be bone-dry.
Early reforms along temperance
lines are attributed to the priests of
India and Persia. But the Chinese
claim that in the Eleventh century

gusted over the prevalence of drunk
enness, ordered al the grape vines

OF Gardens;.-and the Robin.
By DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright, 1s13.)

Now-is the time to think about gar
dens.
From the literature issued BY the
government take the following
hints:
The first thing to do is to write to
Garden Editor. The Star, or the Ma
tiona1 War Garden Commission. Wash
ington. D. c., and ask for "the Vic
tory Garden Book" It will be sent you
free. If you inclose a two-cent stamp.
From 1t you will get a deal Of prac-
tical. reliable and plain information.
Watch the robin! When you see
the first robin, get busy with garden
plans Sometimes this bird comes 4
bit too soon. but usually he is Natures
dependable harbinger Of spring. :.
Just because the war is over, do
not stop your garden activities. The
world will still be hungry in 1919.
The U. S. A had 5,285.000 war gar
dens, in 1918. and the National War
Garden Commission tells Us we ought
to have 100000 this year. The
shortage Of food in Europe is appal-
ling.
We have finished the war against
the Hun; now we must take up the
war against hunger.
Start a garden club in your neigh
borhood. A community can get bet
ter advice about soils and seeds and
other garden essentials than can any
one person.
There is shortage Of seed Get yours
early.
Buy seeds only from reliable firms
A club can buy seed better and cheap
er than an Individual.
Start early. The best part of gar-
dening takes place in your mind.
The Victory Garden Book will tell
YOU just when to plant and what. And
remember it takes more than work to
raise good garden; it takes intel
ligence.
Favor the backbone crops" which
beans, sweet corn, tomatoes, cabbage
and onions. These are the fighting
, ration"
But don't neglect the other good
things, such as peas. beets, carrots.
radishes. turnips. lettuce and the like.
Don't buy lot of expensive tools
just to keep up with the JoneseS For
an ordinary plot all you need Is a good
spade, hoe and a rake.
Plants live on soup" That Is, they
to get the moisture to the roots of
the plant the soil must be pulverized
and free from clods.
Keep your soil rich with nitrate or
manure. The Victory Book will tell
you how to use fertilizers. and IL used
Keep the soil sweet" with lime.
The book will tell you how to DO this.
You cannot raise good vegetables on
sour" soil
These and lot Of other things your
government is anxious to tell you.
And every healthy man: woman and
child has q natural impulse to get out
and dig when spring comes. and the

ed the belief that with it's greatly in
creased population Washington is
now able to support many industries
that would manufacture commodities
for sale in the city.
Committee Practically a Unit.
The committee was practically
unanimous in the opinion that the
quickest way to attract new plants
to the city would be to let the coun-
try know what light factories are al
ready thriving here.
One member of the committee de-
clared that business interests turn
more readily to community where
the existing industries prosper than
to a city which seeks commerce only
because it has none
Lester Lansbursh. who is to handle
advertising for the committee, eX-
planned this afternoon several ways
of acquainting commercial men in the
states with the chances which exist
for development of light industries in
