In 1929 King Vidor (director for Metro-Goldvfyn-Mayer Copiration) secured Miss Jessye as Director ot music for the play ^ "Hallelujah," the first all Negro mQving picture.

For further information ,[ - Bo . -All ~i t "' ' 5 = THE r'^' i( 1 L1 UI^3T1Tin^ r f. iiri.nw, it U wit^ pleasure. that I renew this column of Horticutture news. So many have been asking me [or information about their garden problems that I thot 1 would carry it on to many whom " I did not contact, using this line weekly paper for my medium. l^irst of alii allow" ine to eXtCIttf :o you an invitation to the Hortirulture Institute. The purpose ot this Institute is to aid you to solve your garden problems, assist you ! in further beautification of your homegrounds, and to stimulate aY appreciation for the finer things ol nature. For those who cannot con_ tact me personally, I will be only too happy to answer - your qd'e:>tions through_the mail or through i this column. Mail your questions to the editor of this paper or to me ' at 1204 Heidt St., Columbia, S. ^C. For those in the city, I will always be at' Booker Washington School every Thursday from 7:30-4:30. The motto of this Institute is, - -treat your plants^as - -you -should treat ypur selves. If' you do this yop are bound to havc?suecess. Remember plants are very much like animals in their wants. Plants mu>t havt. food, water, air, heat ty to exist. Is not -this^tr-ue-with animals? Biologically we are ani mals. . As I go about town, I see many people watering their lawns. That is they are going through the motion of . watering their lawns. In fact they are only cooling the atma'pherO for they stand with the watering hose for about l6 or 20 minutes spraying the air with a -line mist of wat< r. The poor gras^ plants after struggling through - the heat of the day only?got.s a 'face washing. Th? next day abount noo.n your lawn looks just as dry as it did the day beforq and you wonder why this is so as youJ watered it the evening befoie. s Charleston grass is one of the^ moat.u,?ed grasses fof lawns in " this "section. It Is a broad leaf shallow rooted plant. All plants -give off fliiite a bit of . water by way of their leaves?just as we give off wateJ through our skins, perspiration. Because of the broad leaves, the Charleston grass gives off much more moisture than a nar row leaf plant as the Bermuda gras-. Then too the roots are shal low, the* ratp. ()f water taken in is just on liar with the rate of water river, ulf. During these hot days, the -upper sur.faee of the -soil dry very fast, leaving the roots of the plants in dry soil. " Another fact must be considered is* that plants like humans tend to follow the line of least-resistance. There is aljways moisture in the depth of the soil but why bother going- way - down ther,, for sonU'thlni; tliaL rarr be had just above (the water that you sprinkle into the first 1-2 inch or so of th' soil)? I think. I need 'ffo no further into this. Matter. . 1 believe now: you see th0 necessity of soaking the ground well when watering your lawn.* Just takft the nozzle off, turn the water on, lay the hose op the ground and forget it for ohout 1-2 an hour then move it to another spoot. If you do this about once or twice a. week your lawn worries.will be over. Also, liw" f. pi Tint.- .Ill,, If. nvtrfima nnl.t . ^luring the winter will be lowered . becaus^ roots which before were shallow will have, been trained to go into the ground deep for their moisture or at thf. least to stay in their natural level. The best time to water the lawn is after sundown then the plant has^all the evdning to take uP the moisture with less jconipititibn from the drying rays of ihe sun. '* ' "" 1 -?
