MAY NOT CALL. SPECIAL
SESSION OF SENATE

Washington, Feb. 20.-Members Of
that President Wilson is considering
the matter of breaking another time
honored precedent by refusing to call
the newly elected senate into extra
session March 5, to consider nominal
tons of cabinet officers. The presi-
dent is said to be disinclined to con-
vene the senate until such time as n
special session may be necessary.
Senators generally asserted that If
the president adheres to such pro-
history Of the government. Since the
government was founded. it was
pointed out. the president after in
auguration has always called the sem
ate to meet to confirm his cabinet
appointments. on such occasions the
oath has been administered to the
newly elected vice president.
President Wilson was represented
rs believing that cabinet officers ap-
pointed by him. II reappointed, do
not need confirmation, but that their
term OF office is subject to the will
of the president. Senator'S took this
to mean that no change will be made
in the cabinet.
Vice President Marshall said to-
night that II President Wilson deter
mines that no necessity exists for call
ing tho senate together on March 8,
there is nothing the senate can do
about the matter. The present sem
ate" he said, dies March 4. and the
new senate is unorganized and can
not convene until next December un-
less called by the president" II the
special session Is not called, thirty
two newly elected and reelected sem
ators will not be sworn In March 5.

WAR GARDEN SEEDS
SHOULD BE SAVED.

"As a wartime measure. every per-
son having a garden should save some
seed this season." says r. S. Mackin-
tosh, University Farm. St Paul. The
war-gardens of this year used up a
large part of the surplus of certain
kinds Of garden seeds. 1t is very i'm
portant, therefore. that an increased
supply be provided for 1918 and 1919.
Lettuce, radish, spinach, beans. peas,
squash. pumpkin. sweet corn, tomato,
egg plant, pepper and other annual
sedes may be saved this year. The
seeds of cabbage. beets, carrots. on
ions. parsnips and similar biennial
plants cannot produce seed until next
THE selection of the very best spe-
cimens for producing seed is neces-
sary. Seed plans should be typical Of
the variety, early maturing, free from
disease, and growing in a place where
they can develop to best advantage.
THE seed should be saved as the
plants mature, dried thoroughly and
stored in a dry place. where they are
safe from mice and other pests. All
seeds should be labeled and the year
in which they are grown should be
given on this label
Typical roots. bulbs, or heads OF
the biennial crops should also be saved
for use next year and stored in the
kind Of place best suited"
