Besides this there are many cities and towns on the other side whose residents do business in San Francisco and they too must reach the city in this way.
 Numerous Parks
 The largest park is named Golden Gate and contains 1,013 acres. It is all ground that was reclaimed from the sand dunes and is really beau tiful pleasure ground with many drives. tennis courts, baseball ground, children's play ground, a large music stand, 8 Japanese Tea Garden and statuary; among the latter a beautiful monument to Francis Scott Key, au- thor of the Star-Spangled Banner.
 San Francisco has thirty-two parks and squares and in the majority of them there are no keep off the grass signs and people lay about on the grass enjoying the sunshine. The military reservation, known as the

will find many places of interest to visit-wholly unlike the scene of the East or Middle West. For instance, they may take pleasure rides over the Ocean Boulevard, which runs along the Pacific Ocean as far as the Cliff House, built on the rocks at the edge. In going they pass Sutro Heights, a park open to the public which con tains many rare tropical flowers. At the Cliff House one has an excellent view of the Golden Gate, the famous entrance to the harbor and nearby-are the seal rocks, where one may watch hundreds of seals resting in the sun shine. As one is not allowed to kill these animals they become very tame and are joy to the lover of animals.
 All along the boulevard are famous restaurants where one may feast and
 dance to their hearts content.
 To those who wish to delve in his | tory the city contains many relics of the forty-niners and of the old mis-
 sions built by the Spanish padres. who came to christianize the Indians, the Mission Dolores being in excellent con- dition. The large office buildings, banking houses and department stores are worth seeing. The flower stands are wonderful and almost any day in l flowers may be purchased for twenty | five cents.

ripen very early and attain great size. What the grower wants is a small crop of large and perfect tomatoes. which, reaching market at a time of scarcity, will command a top price. The fruit thus grown ripens more evenly. and, being kept off the ground, it is clean.
 Cleanliness is in itself a matter of no small importance nowadays. Peo- pie don't want dirt with their vege- tables and fruits. Hence one advan- tage of the method of growing straw berries adopted on irrigated desert farms. The patch in spring is cov- erd with clean straw; and it stays clean because there is no rain. The plants grow up through the straw. on which the ripening berries rest. so that they do not come into contact with the earth at all.
 Pushing Production To The Limit
 Intensive horticulture. as applied to both vegetables and fruits. has been making such strides of late in this country that, in some ways at least. we seem today to be ahead even of the Chinese and Japanese. They may effect greater economics in production. but their products do not equal ours in perfection. Who but a Yankee would ever have conceived the potioa of pushing asparagus six weeks ahead by running steampipes underground between the rows, and turning on the steam for an hour or two daily in early spring, to warm the plants and make them grow?
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-04-30

Presidio is a part of the park system, and the public is permitted to walk or drive through it at will. This was one of the training stations for our off, cers during the late war and the classes numbered from 2,000 to 2,50O. A strong garrison is always kept there and in one part there are many disap- bearing guns which guard the Golden Gate.
 Out in the bay the Navy has a train ing station at Goat Island. and there is a Naval Station and yard at Mare Is- land. They also boast of a large mill itary prison on Alcatrez Island. which at first sight resembles a summer re- sort.
 Since the earthquake and fire many of the office buildings are of rein forced concrete, as it was found that this material withstood both and the city now feels itself prepared for any of these disasters.
 Convention Building
 It is estimated that San Francisco spent on rebuilding, a sum equal to that of the cost of building the Pan-

tain given to the city by the once fla nous actress Lotta Crabtree.
 The city is cosmopolitan and many English, French, Italians, Greeks and Russians are to be found. The wharf where the Greek and Italian fsher-s men go out in their boats to the Far ane1ones Island to catch the famous Sand Dab fish is of special interest to the visitor. There are several Jap anese settlements.
 Chinatown
 The Chinese have a very large set clement of their own, which is well worth visiting, especially at night when @ licensed guide conducts par ties through Chinatown, as it is called. About 15,O00 of these people live in this section entirely to themselves and 1 it is really a miniature China, for they have all the customs of their country and many of them have become rich | in dealing with their own people, Be- | fore the earthquake there were many underground passages and dark alleys

Seeping into the hills it reaches only the root lets, through which it is taken up and absorbed.
 Tomatoes on these irrigated areas are "staked.' each plant being reduced to a single stem and tied to a stick, so that it ma.- grow vertically. Thus all excess growth of the vine (which would draw on the food suppIy) is avoided. and there is great saving of space.
 This, however. is by no means all. At the fourth or fifth "hand' above the ground-tomatoe grow in little punches called ''hands''-the plant is cut off, and thus all nourishment is concentrated in a few fruits. which
