| THE GARDEN

By Ferdinand Wiener

Now is the time to get out and
plant all hardy plants while the
weather is cool and the ground Is
moist. All trees and shrubbery
should be set out, regardless of var
iety. This is especially true with
early blooming shrubbery. Late
planting comes closer to the bloom
ing season, when the plants are in
a condition that requires a great
deal of energy, hence reason for
failure.
If you are planting a windbreak,
get your ground into good mech
anical condition by deep tillage,
which is 80 percent of successful
management of any crop or plant.
Always prepare the soil a little
deeper than the roots that come
with the trees will need, so that
they may start out in soil that is
easily penetrated. 1t is also wise to
plant more than one kind OF trees
when setting out a windbreak.
Plant the taller varieties so that
they will stand in the outer rows,
OF it is still better to plant row
or two of low growing trees on the
outside, than the taller sorts, and
again plant a row or two of the
low growing varieties in the rows
next to the buildings. This will be
great help in holding back wind
and snow. Government paintings
are made much along this method.
If planting evergreens, let them
stand in the rows next to the build
! ings.

In the State Political Arena---

All judges Of all courts, 1t appears,
are out of step with the governor;
judicial opinions, when they conflict
with his desires, are invariably
dictated by political considerations
and not by law and reason. He
alone is chaste and pure as Ice.
But the farmer-labor administra-
ton does not simply chafe and cry
out when foiled in it's attempts to
wrest power to its own uses. 1t al
so acts. It deliberately attempts to
set aside the American tradition
that the judiciary shall be as far
removed from political pressure as
possible; it deliberately attempts to
seize and control the courts for its
own purposes. Governor Olson pro-
poses to stand as a candidate for
the United States Senate upon a
platform of subordinating the judi
iciary to the legislative and the
executive branches of government,
and the farmer-labor party in Min
nesota proposes to elect to the
courts men who shall be respon-
sive to its partisan bidding. In the
same breath that it denounces judi
icial decisions as political it pro-
poses to elect judges who shall
render decisions in accordance
with the political desires of the
farmer-labor party. The state
chairman of the farmer-labor party
in 1884 issued an appeal to farmer
labor voters for a control of the
supreme court and the party today
has put forward its own partisan
candidates for that court, to the
end that it may have, as a farmer
labor candidate for state office de-
clared from the same platform
with Governor Olson, "a supreme
court that will render the decisions
we ask for"

Experimentation

Following is the text of the Re
publican state platform as adopted
by the convention yesterday in st.
Paul:
Preamble
The Republican party of Mime
sofa, in convention assembled, at
St. Paul this 18th day of April, 1886,
reaffirms is faith in the American
system of government which is ca
pable of meeting all situations
which now exist or which may arise
and of solving them without sacri-
ficing the liberties of the people.
We renew our allegiance and de-
yotion to the American Constitu-
ton, to Am, rican institutions and
to American ideals.
We uphold the fundamental
American division Of government
into three separate but coordinate
branches: we oppose all attempts to
make the judiciary inferior to the
lawmaking or the executive branch
es of government or to make 1t sub
ject to political pressure.
We deplore the waste and ex-
travagance in federal and state ad-
ministration and the gross increase
IN the debt burden Of the nation
and Minnesota.
