W. W. CHAPPELL, City Clerk. No. 216-March 4-(5t) New Fertilizer Developed Here The San Francisco fire "burned up" Herman C.

Schlichting SO. badly that he moved over to the Eastbay while the fire was still burningand he's been over here ever since. The National Feed and Fuel Yards founded in Oakland by Schlichting 30 ago have become somewhat of years, Eastbay landmark for all types of garden supplies, fuel, feed and other requirements. For the past 25 years it has been located at 806 55th Street, where the business has grown steadily with the years. Just now garden lovers are enthusiastic over a new development at the Schlichting yards--a new type of fertilizer combining activated sewage sludge with bonemeal, blood meal and other valuable garden ingredients.

Users report remarkable results when this new fertilizer is applied to lawns or gardens, and one outstanding feature, they claim, puts it in a class by itself; it can not grass or flowers, no matter how heavily applied. Weedless cow manure is another specialty here. A huge pile, 100 yards long, subjected to the recent weeks of heavy rain, did not germinate a single weed--a strong tribute to its guaranteed weedless qualities. Rosa Rouletti Smallest Rose Queen of all miniature plants, the genuine Rosa Rouletti, one of the rarest of all dwarf plants, commands universal interest. This precious little rose, originally discovered in window box of a peasant's cottage high in the Swiss Alps, the grows only a few inches high; a mature, blooming specimen is easily covered by a teacup.

Its tiny double flowers, no larger than a dime when full blown, open from the daintiest buds imaginable, are borne on thin, wiry stems an inch or so in length and are double, fragrant, very lasting and of a rich pink. Unlike other miniature roses. Rouletti remains permanently a dwarf. It is easily grown as a house plant in a small pot, requiring little attention, although it is hardy out of loors and a gem in the rock garden. Because of its rarity and daintiness it is attracting great interest from horticulturists everywhere.

Though the plant is so small, it has a large root system that requires little or no fertilizing, and it lives to a great age. Bird of Paradise Flower in Bloom Visitors to the Holland Nursery, 1775 Street, Hayward, this week, will have the opportunity of seeing a rare specimen of plant life, the "Bird of Paradise" flower, in bloom, according to J. C. Thompson, proprietor of this 20-year-old nursery business. Thompson, personally, brought back two fine specimens of this rare flowering plant from near the Mexican border during a recent visit there.

The plant bears five separate blooms in petals of red and blue; one bloom appears each seven days until the whole five are out, when the result is a perfect delineation, in color and form, of the beautiful Bird of Paradise. A new type of mildew grape vine, ideal for foggy climates, is also being shown here. A cross between Concord and a South American grape, this vine is a fast grower and a heavy producer, according to Thompson.

New Seed Novelties Now Are Available Miracles of bursting buds, mistlike foliage, splashes of taking color, rarest fragrance breath: is what is in store for home gardeners who are busy these days preparing for the coming growing season.

Varied and interesting are the latest novelties being introduced for the first time at the seed displays at local dealers. In fact, garden lovers more and more are discovering that they can get practically every kind of seed they could possibly desire right at their own neighborhood dealers.

Few Night Blooming Cereus Plants Urged Is your home of the Spanish architectural type? If it is, a few of the handsome night-blooming Cereus plants will add greatly to the Spanish atmosphere, displayed in a hand-made Olla, or in hand-made hanging pots, says F. J.

Thomas, general manager of the Thomas Cactus Gardens in the Hayward-Niles highway, five miles South of Hayward. And even of your home isn't of Spanish design, these beautiful, showy plants should find place in your cactus garden, Thomas suggests, because in a few years' time, the hundreds of blossoms, opening in the early evening and at night, will make a magnificent and unusual display. Excepting for the Spring flowering fruits and shrubs, pruning should cease when the fruit trees come into bloom. SHIPPING AND PORT NEWS The DOG WATCH By FRANK THE OLD SAILOR OPINES "Some day I want to take a trip all around This ol' world as a passenger, wit' no sound Of a horny handed first mate yellin' fit to bust, Er a bosun makin' me turn to an' chip off rust From th' side o' some ol' hooker wot 'ud be Far better off if she was sunk deep in th' sea. An' I'd stroll off down th' deck to where I'd make th' steward place my big deck chair; I'd ask fool questions of all th' bloomin' crew Jist like all them wanderin' towerists do.

An' I'd git 'em all so mighty mad an' sore They'd wish that I'd staid back on th' shore. An' I'd hear 'em growl, an' chuckle up sleeve, An' do more things fer addin' to their peeve. Then, when they was ready to toss me in th' brine I'd break 'em th' news I too, had crossed th' line Afore any o' them had ever seen th' light o' day, An' was now jist a toff who was bein' made to pay Fer th' fun L.was Then they'd see th' joke An' say, "Oh, well, 'e ain't such a bad kind o' bloke." Then things 'ud be fine fer all th' rest o' th' trip Fer I'd be jist anuther sailorman on th' ship." MOORING A SHIP Bob and Whispering Dick have come forth with a full explanation that will be of invaluable aid to any one interested in docking or mooring a ship. Mooring a ship, they explain, isn't as simple as parking an automobile alongside the curb. For one thing, when a ship loses speed it also loses "steerage-way" and becomes more or less uncontrollable and at the mercy of tides and currents.

A smart captain stays well, away from shore structures, remembering that a 000-ton ship can become powerful weapon of destruction if thrown with force against a or wharf. If you have to dock a 10-000- tonner you will try to get tugs to that is nose her into the berth. But if not, the next best thing is to manoeuver the ship parallel to the dock but about 10 or 15 feet out and then haul in with the aid of your steam winches and cable. But there's the problem of getting those heavy lines ashore and that brings back three to the "heaving line." It's a rope, light but strong and on the end, so that it can be thrown like a lassoo. is a weight.

This used to be a lead ball clutehed in. fingers of -spliced and knotted rope, but that has been KESTER barred out as too dangerous missile, so now they use a canvas bag half filled with sand or shot. It's only half full so that the shock of impact. is distributed and absorbed and the sack won't, split. A sailor in the throws or heaves this weight and the light line follows.

To it they tie on the' heavy hawser or cable and it is pulled in hand over hand by stevedores on the dock who have been engaged beforehand to "take lines." If the ship has come in unannounced and they can't raise anyone to take a line, the mate has to put a sailor overside. and on the dock. They used to jump and in this broad jump the prize for the winner was the stringer-piece on the dock and the penalty for the loser was a plunge into the and the chance of being crushed between the ship and the piling. "Pier-head dangerous and it isn't any has been declared, too more. Now -they rig out a cargo boom and the sailor goes over in a rope sling.

TAKE A LINE, MATE They try to avoid this if possible and will do everything that the ship's whistle and human can do to get someone shoreside to come out and take a line. Some day or night you may be walking along our Embarcadero and a boat will slide in and you'll get a mate, take a line?" Now we want to give you a word of warning. Do this only if you are prepared for al hard. dirty and dangerous job. In the first place, you ma; be conked with the sandbag but that isn't the only drawback.

When you've pulled in the light line, the heavy one will follow, and if the mate lets it run out too fast the weight. will pull it straight, to the bottom of the and it will pull you in, too, if you aren't smart enough to let go. But that isn't all--the mate -is never satisfied to put his lines on. the nearest and most convenient pair of bitts. He usually wants to be well tied down with lines stretching a couple of hundred feet fore and aft.

You will grab this heavy three-inch cable dripping with sea water and foul with harbor scum and drag it to the nearest bitts and then look up hopefully expecting that the job is done only to hear a yell, "No, not that one, the next one!" Another hundred feet pulling a hundred pounds dead weight, only hear, "Not that one, the next one!" Another hundred feet pulling a hundred pounds of dead weight, only to hear, "Not that one, the next one!" When the fourth or fifth time, you've heard, "Not that one, next one!" you will probably tell the mate to go chase himself, dump the line board, and leave for home, resolved that you will never again be inveigled into "taking a heaving line." Concentrated Lawn SUN, MOON, TIDE Food Is Produced Have you ever noticed two 1 lawns side by side one. rich velvety green and the other scraggly and faded? Why the difference? The answer is probably in the soil. In one case steps have been taken to assure its proper conditioning making it 8 storehouse for food and moisture. In the other, with humus and otganic matter missing, it has become hard and caked--unable to absorb moisture or "digest" the plant food. In the "horse and buggy days" the use of barnyard manure was the standard practice for supplying this needed organic matter.

In these days of streamlining, however, people demand convenience and sanitation as well as freedom from weed seed in their fertilizer. To meet this situation a California concern has created a concentrated plant food called Super Grozit, which, it. is claimed, acts like a tonic on jaded soil. Garden Equipment Firm Opens Office For such convenience of the many patrons of the H. V.

Rosefield, sales manager of "the company.

"Each has advantages of its own, and each fills a specific place in the gardener's requirements. 3 New Aids for Gardens Prepared AMERICA TRADE OUTLOOK REPORTED 6000 McCormick Line Traffic Man Reports Outlook Is Unusually Bright Outlook for improved trade conditions between Oakland business men and those of South America, especially in the Argentine, are better now than they have ever been, according to Colin Thompson, traffic manager of the McCormick P. A. B. Line to South America.

Thompson is on the coast making a trade survey and spoke last night before the members of the Oakland Foreign Trade Club. "South America is looking to the United States to supply a large part of its wants," Thompson stated, in part. "The South Americans, especially in the Argentine, want agricultural machinery in large quantities and Eastbay manufacturers stand a good chance of acquiring a big slice of this market. The Argentine is embarking on large scale building projects such as docks, grain elevators and other improvements. In order to supply cargoes to maintain these great sections of the land are being turned to grain, corn and seed growing.

Road building machinery is another thing in strong demand as the country expanding highway systems. Pumps, oil, handling equipment, barrels and other materials are also needed as major oil field developments are taking place all through South America. "The credit situation in the Argentine has improved tremendously and money is again quite free for development purposes. There are opportunities for young men in South America in the engineering fields. The country needs men skilled in civil, electrical, radio and mechanical engineering.

There is no demand, though, for clerical workers, as this supply is furnished locally. The schools in the Argentine teach not only business courses but English as well. But the engineering field offers possibilities for skilled young Americans." Thompson made an aerial survey of the Oakland waterfront and was strongly impressed by what he saw here. He was also highly pleased with the Oakland Airport. He declared that the airplane had been one of the strongest factors in developing trade and good will in South America.

On his present voyage from Buenos Aires on the West Ira he made a great many side trips by air to sections that would have taken him many days of hard travel to accomplish by the older methods of travel. Thompson's headquarters are at Buenos Aires, Argentine. LODGE WILL CRUISE By U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, 304 Customs San Francisco.
