ever since the legislature convened it
has been inclined to do tricks and. act
otherwise crazy. This morning when it
should have struck eight resounding
whacks on the bell it only struck one.
The other evening when it should have

There will be more onions grown in
the back yards in Salem this spring than
ever before, according to those who are
selling seeds, At least, so far the
greatest call has been for onion seeds
with potatoes running close second.
The seed men are anticipating a rush
of business as soon as the garden season
opens up as the chances are back yards
and parkings viii be utilized to the
greatest extent. The opinion seems to
be that when an average sized potato
Is retailing for 10 cents, it is about
time to lay in winter supply of pota-
toes by way of a garden tract. Last
year was the greatest year ever known
in the way of garden seed and the
chances are the record will be broken
again this year.
