FEW SIMPLE METHODS
 TO PRESERVE FiONHES

A little salt peter or carbonate of soda in the water in which flowers are left standing will p C serve them for at ,oast 6Wo weeks. Flowers can be preserved from fifteen to thirty days by dipping their stems when ir2sn- ly cut in water in which 5Weaty- five grains of ammonium Gnio- ride (Sal Ammoniac) nave oeen dissolved. They may be presery- ed permanently by cipPing the entire flower into perfectly lln- pid gum water and alloWlnGthcm to drain.
 The color of red flowers may be well preserved by dampaninG them and thon by dusting with salicylic acid or Doracjc acid and then removing it with 9 brush when the flowers are dry. All cut flowers keep better in Q cool moist place. Tight 5uds may oo forced open if placed in c mooet atC-ly warm room.

GOVERNOR TO EASE
 TAXATION BURDENS

4 proclamation removing pen alties for failure to pay county, city and state taxes at the regu- lar tax paying period which ends April 10th, will be issued before the time limit expires, Governor McRae said last night. The extension limit will be plac- ed as late in May as possible without making property liable to forfeiture under state laws he said.
 The governor said that the proclamation will not be an ex- tension of the tax paying period but a measure of relief in cases where persons are unable to pay their taxes by April 10. The gov elnor said he was anxious that all who could do so would meet their obligations as usual and that the remission of the penal ty would be attached only to county, city and state taxes.
 Road improvement taxes and taxes on bond issues are govern ad by laws over which the gov ornor has no control, he said, and would not be affected by any proclamation he might issue.
 The propose extension of time for paying taxes was suggested to Governor McRae some time a go by a committee from Critten- den county, who asked that the i Governor stay the time for the payment of taxes and reheve payment of penalties on the ground that they as landowners, were unable to pay taxes at the usual time.
 Whether the relief following the virtual extension of the tax paying period would be offset by reactions on the state and local credit is a question that is being seriously considered by persons in touch with state, county and ] local finances.

 Others will get accommodations only and after these persons have been first served If you not de positor with the bank it is not good taste to as the banker lend you other peoples money who aIo ospos itors
 If you are afraid to trust your money with the banker you cannot blame him if he fails to trust you.
 When you se your cotton and cash your check in- stead of deposting it with your banker do not be GI- prsed when you ask for loan if your banker says When you have secured loan from your banker do not the money out of the bank and stick it down in your pocket your banker will shake his head when you want to borrow again.
 Banking is cooperation if you want your banker to do all cooperation and you do of it, your banker will balk.
