When the sightseer strolls leisurely
through the sunken gardens or rests
beneath the shade of a fifty-year-old
tree, he will be interested to know
that before all this eamo into being,
miles of drainage pipe and irrigation
equipment had to be installed that
all might be in continuous bloom
throughout the summer and fall.
After the noted landscape archi-
tect, Alfred H. Oeiffert, Jr., had stud-
ltd the miniature models of the build-
ings and grounds, the next step was
to plaee or “spot” toy-like trees at
the locations where they would best
bring out the architectural beauty of
the buildings without detracting from
their effectiveness.- The four and a
half miles of green hedges and other
detnils were thus planned In model
form before Herbert Schmitt, head
of the Landscape division of the Ex-
position, started actual operations.
Everything has been carried on by
schedule—nurseries in various sec-
tions of the Nation were given a
quota of deliveries to be made on
g£,'T.
months ago, when the active press-
agent learned that some difficulty
was being encountered in the han-
dling of some of the larger trees.
“Well send over the elephants if
you need them,” ho informed Fair
officials over the telephone. “It takes
an elephant to do the kind of a job
you follow* are up against. And be-
sides, the circus will get some pub-
licity out of It.”
The offer was accepted. A herd of
elephants was brought to the grounds
and soon the animals were using their
immense bodies to perform the tasks
that would require many men.
The growing of grass In an almost
incredible space of time in itself de-
serves particular mention, in telling
the story of glorified gardening.
All during last summer, World’s
Fair horticulturists experimented on
a plot of land similar in soil content
to that found on the grounds. It was
finally agreed that a good velvet-like
lawn could bo grown in the spare of
three weeks.

It takes from three to a thousand
generations to change the habits of a
people. What is needed now is some-
.thing that will-work next month, not
next century. It would be a good plan,
for example, if the relations of indus-
try and agriculture could be readjust-
ed so' that ever factory worker would
have a .piece of land to fall back on.

seems to me, is to be compelled by
