TELLS HOW TO MAKE j 1 LAWN IN SHORT TIME! A new, quick method of establish-11 ' ing stands of sod on lawns and more j , especially on golf greens where the jrrass gets severe usage, has been '< worked out by botanists of the Upit** ed States Department of Agriculture. Bent grasses, which grow from runners, are principally used in the; method. A quantity of healthy sod is. stripped at a depth of approximately; J 1-2 inches, which gathers in most! of the grass roots with as little dirt! ?

These roots are sowed broadcast on the ground, which has been carefully prepared by plowing nnd harrowing; and if a golf green 1 is desired it is usually covered about n inch deep and rolled. for orainary lawns 11 nas ueen ;\.;nd sufficient-to broadcast the sod 1 . .1 reds and harow or disk them in. By 1 tiiis method a good stand of sod has ' been obtained in as short a time as 1 three weeks. The method has been used on golf courses throughout the j country. A green of the public golf < course in Potomac Park, Washington, 1 D.

County Judge William R. Bayees of Kings county yesterday deferred sentencing a woman charged with' burglary on account of a peculiar ail-J ment she was found to be suffering from. The ailment is described as hypothyroidism, an affection of the gland :n the larynx. This ailment, according to physicians, is thought to create certain criminal tendencies. The woman, Mrs. Fannie Liebowitz N'o. 633 Snediker avenue, Brooklyn, ihe mother of five young children, previously served a three-year prison term at Auburn, according to the au-' thorities, on a similar charge. Yesterday as the woman was about to face arraignment and a subse-' quent prison sentence, the court was! handed a written statement, signed i r xt ir? u i:??i i uv > augnii, uieuiuai ex-i aminer for District Attorney Lewis' af Kings county, describing his medi fa] opinion of the case and asking! chat sentence be deferred to permit' the woman to undergo toeatment. The ailemnt hypothyroidism, as explained by Dr. Vaughn, is a lack of :ertain oils that act as a secretion in 1 ;he glands of the larynx. This is said ;o cause a dull mentality, as an ex:ess of the secretion would cause a norbid condition. Judge Bayes, in discussing the case yesterday, said: "I consented to request of Dr.* Vaughn readily. I have always rec>mmended the medical study of a :riminal. I do not know what course >f treatment Dr. Vaughn contem? J jlates, whether he proposes observa:ion or operation. As I understand j ;he ailment, the particular gland j ioes not function properly. Whether| t has anything to do with her being ible to differentiate between ,right] ind wrong that is a question up to he medical fraternity." 1785 1921 COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON Open to Men and Women Entrance examinations, and examnations for the free tuition county cholarships at all county seats Frilay, July 8> at 9 a. m.

I ( It leaves unillumined the far more t important matters of reasoning 1 ability, initiative, imagination and 1 constructive power generally. A man might be aible to answer i c every one of Mr. Edison's questions, 1 dines to the manufacture of shellac, yet be a sad numbskull as regards to efficient thinking and doing. It is z to the credit rather than the shame * of the college that they have not 1 produced human encyclopedias such r as Mr. Edison seems to desire. I s Though, to be sure, it cannot* ex- j actly be affirmed that the colleges ( c avoid the acquiring of useless know-'r 1 - a _ l - ' ** icuge error as completely as xney i< ought to do, and that they conform j \ as closely as they might to the prime : n requirement of fitting young men 1 and women to live up to their maxi- i s mum. They flounder because the col- j v leges have, after all, over-empha- a sized in various ways the impottance a of information acquiring, and have e understressed the development of 11 mental and moral nower.
