FAIR TO HAVE 13 MAGNIFICENT PALACES MACHINERY BUILDING TO BE THE LARGEST IN GROUP OF NOTABLE STRUCTURES FOUR HEROIC STATUES OF MEN GREATEST IN MECHANICAL ARTS Machinery building, which is to grace the 1915 Universal Exposition will be the largest of the thirteen exhibition palaces that are provided for in the plans being prepared by the members of the architectural commission. This building is being designed by Messrs. Ward & Blohme, and is of huge proportions, consisting of three great naves, with a cross nave of the same proportion. The treatment of the exterior will be a free adaptation of Spanish rennaissance, and the Castillon period of influence of architecture in Mexico. It is expected that the machinery building will be the first contract let for the main exhibition palaces. Four heroic statues, representing the personalities who were greatest in the advancement of mechanical arts — Archimedes, Guttenburg, Watt and Edison, will, in all probability, be placed on this building. Jules Guerin, the famous artist who did the mural paintings for the Pennsylvania depot in New York, and who has been appointed director of color and decorations of the exposition, states that the color of the roofs of the exposition palaces has been selected and will play a very important part in the day time and in the night illumina- John McLaren, landscape engineer of the exposition. Lobos square is a part of the Harbor View Exposition site. The trees are being planted for experimental purposes. Mr. McLaren is sanguine that the trees which have come from the interior, will take root and flourish and if at the end of 12 months they show signs of life, they will be transplanted along the esplanade or some other picturesque section of the grounds. More palms are needed and owners of such trees who are desirous of donating them should notify the exposition. Mr. McLaren states he will send men to dig up the trees and transport them to the site. At the close of the world's fair in 1915, these trees will be removed to Golden Gate and other parks in this city. The news of Uruguay's acceptance was received from Washington by President Moore. The tidings were transmitted by the State Department and the following cablegram received by Secretary of State Knox was sent here: "I have the honor to report that by a letter dated June 8, 1912, the minister of foreign affairs notifies this legislation of the intention of the government of Uruguay to take part in the Panama Pacific Exposition to be held in San Francisco in 1915. "Don Jose Richling, Uruguayan consul general in New York, has been appointed provisional commissioner for the Uruguayan government. "RICHARD E. PENNOYER, "Montevideo, Uruguay." Ben Blow, secretary of the Napa Chamber of Commerce, states that it is the plan of his organization to have the furniture made at once, exhibits perfected and everything in shape so that they can install at the very moment that the California counties building is completed. "It is the desire of the entire Napa valley to be the first county to have its exhibit installed in the California counties building," said Blow, "and our The architectural commission, after a three-days' session in this city, adjourned to meet again on November 11th next, at which time they will have their working drawings ready for submission. Henry Bacon of New York, a member of the architectural commission, declares that we are a year in advance of other expositions. "I am more convinced than ever," said Bacon, "that the plan adopted by the commission is one of the best yet devised for an exposition, and the public will be surprised at its excellence. In the province of design we have struck gold—pure gold. "There is no question that this exposition, by reason of its magnificent site and majestic surroundings, natural and artificial—the hills of San Francisco sloping back, and adored with beautiful homes, and looking like Constantinople,—will be far superior in general appearance than any other exposition that has ever been built. It will also be the first exposition that has ever been built on the waters of the sea." A. P. Taylor, secretary of the Hawaiian fair commission, who, when a war correspondent in Cuba, was imprisoned in the Cabanas fortress by General Weyler, and who, for two years was chief of detectives of the Honolulu police department, is in this city conferring with the exposition officials in regard to Hawaii's $150,000 exhibit at the coming world's fair. "The work of the Hawaiian commission is well advanced," said Taylor, "and our plans contemplate a display of Hawaii's wonderful scenery in dioramic effects, showing the volcano of Kilauea, the Nuuanu Pali, rugged coast scenes and the deep gorges of the Island of Kauai, which rival those of the Grand Canyon." The architectural commission of the exposition has been in session for the past week discussing the plans of the Ben Blow, secretary of the Napa Chamber of Commerce, states that it is the plan of his organization to have the furniture made at once, exhibits perfected and everything in shape so that they can install at the very moment that the California counties building is completed. "It is the desire of the entire Napa valley to be the first county to have its exhibit installed in the California counties building," said Blow, "and our committee has already received the assurances of the Napa county board of supervisors that they will help us in every way." WHITE EGRETS INCREASING Slaughter of Rare Plumage Birds Is Being Prohibited by Law That the law which went into effect in New York state last year, prohibiting the sale of feathers of native birds for women's hats is having a beneficial effect on the rare birds of the country is revealed by reports received this week from bird protectors in all of the Atlantic Coast states. Especially is this statement applicable to the rare white Egret, from the back of which the "aigrette" of the millinery trade is obtained. As the birds bear these plumes only in the spring, their killing means that the young are left in the nest to die of starvation. As a result, the Egret is now regarded as one of the rarest birds in America. This summer, for the first time in several years, they are reported to have appeared in New York state and several have been seen in Massachusetts. The National Association of Audubon Societies may truly be regarded as the patron saint of these birds. "As quickly as the New York legislature passed our anti-plumage law," said Mr. T. Gilbert Pearson, secretary of the association today, "we sent agents into the Southern States to ascertain whereabouts of the few remaining breeding colonies of these birds. In all fifteen were found. These were situated chiefly in the Everglades and lake country of Florida and in the rice field section of South Carolina. During the past summer about 5,000 Egrets dwelt in safety in these colonies, for we protected them from the agents of the millinery houses by employment of trusty guards." It is freely stated that other species of plumage birds are being benefited in a similar way by the passage of the law which it was predicted would prove disastrous to many of the large millinery firms of this city. The course in an offered in the University beginning Monday just been announced. Students may prepare general agriculture or for livestock, work, or they may for special skill in some technology; the beet sugar or such agricultural science entomology—the pests, plant pathology, bacterial and physical trees and field crops; the investigation to men and the doctrinary science, poultry nutrition, poultry mills of testing and maintaining an ability by proper fertility crop rotation.

The architectural commission of the exposition has been in session for the past week discussing the plans of the world's fair. Among the eminent men engaged in this important work are: William R. Mead, W. C. Richardson of the New York firm of McKim, Mead & White; Theodore Blake representing Carrere & Hastings of New York; Henry Bacon of New York and Messrs. Willis Polk, W. B. Faville, L. C. Mulgardt, George W. Kelham, Clarence H. Ward, Edward H. Bennett, Clarence E. Howard, Arthur Brown, Jr., John McLaren, Landscape Engineer, and Robert Farquhar of Los Angeles, and Director of Works, Harris D. H. Conniek, and Carl Bitter, Advisor of Sculpture, A. S. Calder, Chief of Sculpture and Jules Guerin, Director of Color. R. B. Hale has returned from abroad and declares that far greater progress has been made in securing foreign participation than was possible at Chicago or St. Louis, and from present indications the International Exposition will enjoy the greatest foreign participation in the history of exposition building. Palm trees weighing 4,500 pounds are being planted in Lobos square in preparation for the exposition, by a squad of men under the supervision of MILLIONS OF FIGHTING MEN Uncle Sam Could Put Gigantic Army In Field in Event of War In event of war the United States could raise an army of 20,473,684 men, according to the last figures obtained by the Census Bureau. There were that many males of military age—between 18 and 44 years—in the country. In 1900 the males of military age numbered 16,182,702, showing an increase of 4,290,982 in ten years. The percentage for Wyoming is the highest; the males contributing 37.4 per cent of the population. The percentage in California is 28 per cent. In the far Western States the percentages are higher than elsewhere, on account of the movement of immigrants. Of the 20,473,684 males, 2,156,261 were in the State of New York, Pennsylvania was the next highest with 1,788,619 and Illinois was third with 1,330,556. The increase in Illinois in ten years was 239,084. California had 665,522 at the last report, an increase of 286,465 in ten years. Delaware had the smallest number 44,634. The distinguished officer who has just deanship of the College Professor Thomas is director at the Pennsylvanian College, was for the regents at the state at large, through co-operative experiments... YOUTHS TRAINED FOR WORK ON THE FARM UNUSUAL OPPORTUNITIES OF-FFERED FOR STUDY OF SUBJECT IN CALIFORNIA MORE STUDENTS ENROLLED THAN IN ANY OTHER BRANCH OF TRAINING More young men are being trained by the University of California for agriculture as a life work than for any one other profession or occupation. Last year there were 322 students at Berkeley in the full four-year course in agriculture, 99 in the three-year high school course in practical farm subjects, given at the University Farm at Davis, and over 700 taking more or less instruction in agriculture at Berkeley,—for many students who first enroll in the colleges of engineering, commerce, or natural or social science come to realize the unusual opportunities presented by agriculture in California and by turning their studies toward agricultural engineering, or various fields of agriculture, specially prepare themselves for country life. The course in agriculture to be offered in the University during the year beginning Monday, August 19, have just been announced by the university. Students may prepare themselves for general agriculture, for horticulture, or for livestock, dairy, or creamery work, or they may equip themselves for special skill in irrigation practice in some technological pursuit such as the beet sugar or wine industry, or in such agricultural sciences as economic entomology—the control of insect agents have told him that it is their purpose to make the College of Agriculture of the University of California the foremost in the country in the quality of its faculty and of its usefulness to the community. Director Hunt comes to California in that full purpose, and with the realization that the vast agricultural resources and the vastly varied problems of California agriculture make this state an unexamined opportunity for the development of agricultural education and agricultural science. NEW BUG COMES FROM JAPAN Discovered in Los Angeles Nursery, Is Now Under Investigation Southern California has a new bug. This time it is the Rhyncohora beetle of the Coleopter order. It made its debut a few days ago in a Los Angeles nursery garden. The county horticultural commissioner spent long hours sizing up the new bug and trying to determine whether it was some harmful kind of a parasite or just a plain bug. The animal was found on a wistaria vine which had been brought from Japan some time ago. It, with several others, had fastened on to some of the dead wood with devouring effect. A section of the vine was examined in the State Quarantine Bureau with the result that the bug proves to be a wonderful excavator. So hard-working is it that it can drill through an eight-inch tree in one year. The bug is about one-sixteenth of an inch long; has a bill like the prow of a racing yacht; runs with six legs and flies with four wings. Horticultural Commissioner Woods and his assistant, B. R. Jones, are working overtime looking up the antecedents of the bug, with his mode of living, temperament and disposition toward plants in general. Micky and Pat had been at school JUST AS SURE Just as sure as you shape things out And live life right with God, The things gone wrong will all go right In the way you have to plod. Just as sure as you balance accounts, And set yourself dead straight, You will find your affairs all right side up, With nothing to blame on fate. Now, the best of us in our time and place Get off the track in a way, And we yield to the world and flesh—ah, yes— To the devil himself, some day. But the moment comes when we see the glow Of the right shine clear and whole; And, oh, how eager we are to turn And re-establish the soul! Just as sure as we do it, men, As we look on the truth's pure face, And cry to the false gods luring us, That there is no life but grace— That instant full on our hearts there falls The balm of a peace unknown, And all comes right and we find the dark And the night and doom have flown. Just as sure as we stand up straight As the Lord intended again; Just as sure as we catch our breath And are men with the strength of men— Just as sure as we leave the dark And live life right with God. The things gone wrong will all come right Wherever we have to plod. THE MISFITS Jobson was made for a farmer, But sticks to the whirling town; Brownleigh was built for the city, But he's holding a farm job down; Jobson's a joke at clerking, But a star in the country fields; Brownleigh's a clog in the bearings In the job that he never yields. Thus it goes ever and ever, With no one to set it right; Nobody's here to tell us Just how to trim each light; And Brownleigh and Jobson blunder And bungle things through and through, And the world pays dear each hour For the work of the misfit crew. But if Jobson could hit to the country And settle on Brownleigh's land, And if Brownleigh to Jobson's figures Could turn his quick eye and hand, The world would go much more smoothly—Twould whirl with a new-born zest; Don't be a Jobson or Brownleigh—Find the work that you do the best. They had become engaged. "But your proud mother," faltered the young man. "What of her?" asked the girl. "Will she oppose our engagement?" "I hardly think so. Mother is too sensible to waste time opposing a summer engagement." The course in agriculture to be offered in the University during the year beginning Monday, August 19, have just been announced by the university. Students may prepare themselves for general agriculture, for horticulture, or for livestock, dairy, or creamery work, or they may equip themselves for special skill in irrigation practice in some technological pursuit such as the beet sugar or wine industry, or in such agricultural sciences as economic entomology—the control of insect pests, plant pathology—the fighting of bacterial and physiological diseases of trees and field crops, parasitology—the investigation of parasites deadly to men and the domestic animals, veterinary science, pure food work and nutrition, poultry raising, or the problems of testing and improving soils and maintaining and increasing fertility by proper fertilization and proper crop rotation. Besides the opportunities for graduates of the College of Agriculture in farm work and in governmental scientific positions, in agricultural engineering and in commerce, there is a great and rapidly increasing demand for young men and women trained as teachers of agricultural subjects. Every state has its agricultural college. The leaders in education are coming to feel that the community is indeed backward which does not provide an agricultural course in the high school and for every school a school garden in which the children may be taught the basic principles of the science and art of agriculture. Three members of the agricultural faculty devote their whole time to the training of students for positions as teachers of agriculture and school gardening, and to co-operation with the schools in the development of such teaching throughout the state. Among the individual courses in general agriculture offered by the University of California this year are those in field crops, in the chemistry of plants, in dry farming methods, in cereals, and in farm management. In horticulture, there are courses in plant propagation, plant breeding, to improve varieties and seed, economic botany, the chemistry of fruits, vineyard work and wine diseases, and pomology—detailed study of the growing of the more important California fruits. There are courses in the physics, chemistry, and bacteriology of soils, in the testing and use of fertilizers, in the analysis of water, fruits, insecticides, foods, wines, and dairy products, courses in the control of the diseases of plants and animals, in bee-keeping, in cheese and butter making, The bug is about one-sixteenth of an inch long; has a bill like the prow of a racing yacht; runs with six legs and flies with four wings. Horticultural Commissioner Woods and his assistant, B. R. Jones, are working overtime looking up the antecedents of the bug, with his mode of living, temperament and disposition toward plants in general. Micky and Pat had been at school together, but had drifted apart in after life. They met one day, and the conversation turned on athletics. "Did you ever meet my brother Dennis?" asked Pat. "He has just won a gold medal in a Marathon race." "That's fine," said Mike. "But did I ever tell you about my uncle at Ballythomas?" Pat agreed that he could not call him to mind. "Well," continued Mike, "he's got a gold medal for five miles and one for ten miles, a silver medal for swimming, two cups for wrestling, and a lot of badges for boxing and cycling." "He must be a great athlete, indade," said Pat. "You're wrong," cried Mike. "He keeps a pawnshop!" A small boy from Chicago, who was sent to the country by the United Charities and who had never seen a windmill before, exclaimed: "Gee, miser! That’s some electric fan you've got out there cooling the hogs." "And you are going to have the hero and heroine of your story 'live happily forever after'?" "No, just the opposite." "Just the opposite? How so?" "I'm going to have them marry one another." Anaheim Bakery Peter Syre, prop. Fresh Bread Cakes and Pies Confectionery, Etc.
