omy can be imagined than this, ac-
cording to the bulletin. Some medi-
cines lose their strength; others be-
come dangerously potent on evapora-
tion. Above all, it is criminal to adj
minister to one person, especially a
child, a medicine that was prescribed
for another.
2. Razor blades might be buried in
the ground for safe keeping. They
should not be kept on the bathroom
shelves nor used for family surgery.
3. Don't keep any derivatives of
opium. The effects of certain such
narcotics are almost miraculous. The
sudden sweet relief from pain makes
them treacherously dangerous. The
drug habit is nearly always formed
innocently.
4. Don't store poisOns. In most
cases they are unnecessary and they
are a constant danger to children.
Where it is necessary to keep them
in the house they should be unmis-
takhbly marked.
5. Don't mix the medicine chest and
the machine shop. If you use vase
line to oil your electric fan, keep a
separate bottle in the shop or garage.
Keep your absorbent cotton in a
sealed package in the bathroom and
have another package of cotton to
wipe the car.

The decision declaring the Frazier
Lemke mortgage moratorium measure
unconstitutional was almost unnoticed
because of the pandemonium created
by the NRA decision. Endangering
the fate of thousands of farmers who
have benefited by it's provisions, this
decision has had the effect of stimu-
lating interest in the other Frazier
Lemke bill, that of the mortgage re-
financing and credit and currency ex-
pansion idea. At meeting held this
morning by members from agiicul-
tural states, plans were made for an
intensive drive to secure signatures
to the discharge petition, as we'll As
to endeavor to secure support from
the administration for the measure.
With prospects for long and tedi-
GUS session strengthened by develop
ments of the week, it gives the farm
group added time to try to get the
measure up for vote. And along
with the struggle comes the necessity
for revising the AAA amendments in
the light of the court decision, so that
that act in turn will not receive the
death blow when it reaches the high
tribunal. That means that the amend
ments discussed in these letters even
as recently as last week will have to
be returned to committee, gone over
with great care and study, and per-
haps completely rewritten before they
can be enacted.
Bear this in mind. The New Deal
is at it's crisis, and now as never
before needs the helpful cooperation
of every citizen. The condition of in
dustry. of labor, of the socially in
secure. cannot tolerate carping criti-
cism or destructive activity at this
time. The next short weeks will
demonstrate the solution, and until
it is reached, the hopeful spirit and
the will to survive and recover must
continue.

Sowing Perennial Flowers.

Many hardy garden plants may be
described as short lived perennials.
Others live for many years and with
this group best results are obtained
if the plants are taken up and divided
every or 3 years. Four years should
be regarded as the limit for any
perennial Towering plant before being
divided.
Seeds of such perennials as we may
grow in our trial garden, or those
which are we'll known to live but a
short time, may be sown in June in
sheltered position. or preferably in
a coldframe. A coldframe need not
be an elaborate affair; 6-inch boards,
placed on edge and fastened together
to fit a storm sash, will make a suit
able frame for perennials. AS many
perennial seeds are small and some
terminate very slowly, the advantage
lies with a frame every time.
Before placing the frame in posi-
ton, dig the ground thoroughly. If
the soil is at all heavy, add a little
sand and rotted leaves, or an inch or
two of finely granulated peat, mixing
it in we'll so as to have light. we'll
pulverized and we'll drained bed in
which to SOW the seeds.
Do not SOW seeds in dry soil. 1t
is better to soak the ground and wait
day or two before sowing. Many
seeds that will germinate within a
week in moist soil, might not germin-
ate for several weeks if the soil is
dry. Anchusas, hollyhocks. and del
phiniums are few of those which
terminate readily, while the gas plant
(Dictamnus albua) requires much
longer; in fact, it would be an advan-
tage to soak the seeds of the latter
in hot water before sowing.
Only recently has the perennial
phlox been extensively propagated by
seeds. 1t is advisable to SOW the seeds
in a shallow box quite late in the
season; in fact, just before the ground
freezes up. Then place the box out.
doors and allow the seeds to freeze
In the spring, young plants will ap
pear quite readily, after which they
should be transplanted once, then sci

will bloom the same season. Freez

The Court cannot be greatly blamed
for following the words of the Consti-
tuition. and yet it was cruelty rigid
in its Interpretation of what cOnsti-
tuted interstate commerce. 1t held,
in that connection, that a manufac-
turing plant entirely within the boun-
daries of one state was entirely in
trastate (not interstate) even though
it might sell it's products in interstate
commerce to people of other states.
Therefore, the Court held, the federal
government is powerless to regulate
hours of labor or wages or working
conditions in such a plant. That
wiped out all the efforts of the New
Deal to provide for minimum wages.
maximum hours of labor. reemploy-
ment and increased purchasing power,
and removed it's control over all the
industries in the nation of any i'm
portance.
The other notable blow that the
Court struck was the decision that
Congress could not under the Consti-
tuition delegate powers to the extent
that it could authorize any admin
strative agency to set up codes and
the like. Consequently Congress must
either separately enact the myriad
codes as individual laws-an impOs-
sibly involved task-or it must re-
vamp the act in limited way, and
secure the voluntary cooperation of

operation of the codes and the at
tendant regulation, and who want
them continued. After a breathing
spell, and recovery from the shock Of
the far-reaching decision, Congress
will of course settle down to it's task.
The trouble is that under existing
law the MIRA expires on June 16, and
that leaves only two weeks in which
to act.

THE NATIONAL
GOVERNMENT

Stunning in their effect, the deci-
sions handed down Monday by the
Supreme Court have for the time be-
ing completely halted all legislative
work, with the result that there is
literally nothing else to write about
this week. While the Senate has con-
tinued some semblance of routine
work. House leaders have not only
decided to withhold any action, but
have taken stern steps to prevent
members from making any sort of
expressions.

 And, on his way, I'd like to bet, that he will drop that small one, yet" Don't let them tease you" said the farmer. Take it right inside"
 Wee Duncy did, and all went well. The others heard some fel- low yell, Hey, bring the pump kins over here. This is the pump kin stand.
 You tots are fine, it seems to me, to help that farmer willingly. wish I had some little helpers to give me hand"
 The biggest pumpkin of them all was last, and if they let 1t fall, of course, 'twould smash to pieces. Scouty yelled to Coppy, "Hey!

'sNow, Tinies," said the farmer, "I have tickets, so you'll all get by the gateway to the County Fair" That's great" wee Duncy cried.
 Let's hurry! Why waste time out here? We'll miss some of the fair, fear. Please let me have my ticket and I'll promptly rush inside"
 '.Hold on, there, just minute son. Before I let you Tinies run right through the gate, I'm going to ask g. favor of you all.
 You know that I brought, on this ride, some pumpkins. I want them inside. I'd like to have you carry them. if you won't let them fall"
 Wee Duncy eyed the pumpkins and he shouted. Sure, I'll lend a hand. In fact I'll be the first. The rest will help, as like as not"
 He took one in his arms and then. it made the farmer chuckle when brave Scouty shouted, Look! He grabbed the smallest in the lot"
 Well, goodness, what did you expect? That lazy youngster would
