cWHTFE HOUSE LAWN
 FOR WILSON SFIEET

Washington, May 7-PesideM Wilson made preparations today to, turn his flock of sheep to graze on the picturesque front lawn of the White House. Up to this the forty eight sheep, of which twenty-one are lambs born this spring, have been confined to the rear, which as a pasture is fairly well worn out
 A group of 1aborers was at work fencing in the numerous flower beds and the more delicate trees which adorn the front lawn. Long posts were placed in the ground and heavy chicken wire nailed to them. The sheep will be turned into this part of the lot as soon as the fencing is finished, probably tomorrow.
 President Wilson is the first oe. 1eapant of the White House who ever raised sheep on the White Houss lawn. He bought seven three years ago and the flock has multiplied to the present number. The rear lawa win be restored while the sheep arc at the front, where they will be visi b1e to passersby. They could not be keen at the rear.
