Have you ever wondered how the
hole got in your macaroni? Would
you like to have a dream lawn,
instead of the crab grass infested
one that harasses you every sum-
mer? Have you seen the new
American grown Easter lilies bloom
ing in November? Did you know
that spraying apples with hormones
keeps them from dropping of the
trees before they ripen? Does it
interest you to find out how flowers
may be made to bloom out of season?
Have you any idea why some potato
chips turn brown and taste sweet
instead Of salty?
The answers will be ready on these
questions and scores more in a
special exhibit which is to be opened
in Washington November 4 by the
Bureau of Plant Industry Of the
Agriculture Department.
This bureau is the departments
largest research agency, perhaps the
largest one in the Federal Govern

patio of the Main Administration
Building is group of scientists.

Dramatic Research.
You don't have to be a scientist
or even dirt farmer to understand
what it Is all about The exhibit is
being planned for the average city
dweller, and its objectives are so
clearly set forth that Mr.. and Mrs
John @. Citizen and their 12-year-
old Jimmy or Jane can take it in
for themselves. They will see
demonstrated by living plants and
simple clear cut statements how the
work of the bureau affects their daily

pleasure. In other words, the
scientists of the Bureau OF Plant
Industry have come out from behind
their test tubes and their laboratories
and they are dramatizing for the
lay mind what their benelcent
research is doing.
According to E. G. Moore, chief of
information OF the bureau, the
exhibit is to be built around four
main themes, with four separate
sideshows, so to speak, occupying
the four corners of the patio. Actual
plants will be used to tell the stories
of plant nutrition, plant introduc-
ton and breeding.
The first of these will be under the
general direction of DR.. Constantine
C. Nikiferoff, a famous Russian
scientist now associated with the
department. This exhibit will tell
how soil surveys are made, how soils
are analyzed for chemical elements
and how the plants that grow in
them respond when some of the ele-
ments are withheld from their diet.
These demonstrations. the public
will be reminded, will have to do
equally with Aunt Susie's geranium
