I 'IM Ml II W I j Washington, April 20. To make 'sure he is not deceiving ihis constitu : ents, and that he is not being deceived : by the Agricultural Department, as . well as to experiment in the produc ition of first class vegetable seed, ' Congress Jesse S. Davenport of Ok ' lnhoma today donned a pair of blue ' overalls and hied away across the river from 'Washington to cultivate a seven-acre farm and practice on the ! government's seed crop. Associated '. with him in cultivation of the festive soy bean nd the gamboling cow pea , is J. S. CofFman, an old time employee i of the government printing office, who owns the farm. Possessed of the idea that those numerous packages of seeds which the government sends out at the request of "your congressman" maybe grow turnips instead of Eurlv Spring radishes, cauliflower instead of frost-proof cabbages, and spinach in stead of Golden Heail Lettuce, Con gressman Davenport has started th's practical test widMn the- shadows of the capitol. It might be that they are good vote-getters and again, a constituent expecting to raise a crop of rutabagas surely would ibe irritated to find parsnips instead.

Want Baker's Garbage. liaker, April 19. The value of gar bage thrown away in Baker was shown this afternoon when a com munication from a Denver concern was read at the regular meeting of the city commissioners, offering to erect and operate a $30,000 garbage incinerator in Baker, if the city would donate the site, collect the garbage and allow the operators the by-products from the plant during the next 20 years. No action was taken in the matter. Following the lead of White Plains, N. J., the electric light poles of Wal lingford, Conn. will as far as pos sible ibe hidden this summer by climb ing roses.
