Salem is fortunate in baring many

symphony 1 orchestra, respectively
directed by Ralph Nohlgren. Gor

To the Editor:
The USA is proposing a barter
system between this country and
the European democracies. To of
fer our wheat and cotton In ex
change for their rubber and tin.
We hare a surplus of these two
commodities, therefore in the ab
sence of the chance to sell to them
for cash, we propose patright
swap. In offering to swap the
commodities this country, is
swamped in, after we swap them
sufficiently to reduce their Quan
tity to normalcy. Its only natural
to think as this country is long
on nearly all commodities,
through lack ot opportunity to sell
wo will , next offer to : them for
swap practically every commodity
we produce. This kind of proce
dure la purely state socialism, and
there remains only one more step
for the USA to throw this nation
Into complete socialism? that step
will be for this government to
take control of all its Industries,
and aa government regulation has-j
failed to bring the USA out of de-
presslon, government control
looms certain, in the near future.
followed through the lack of mon
ey In circulation by International
socialism, automatically forced
upon the world, and socialism Is
always crowned with a dictator.

To the Editor:
Believing that the passing of
Mrs. Elizabeth Pound of Salem
deserves, more than an ordinary
newsoaoer mention3 of -the same,
and having ? knowa ' the ' deceased
for many years, I am offering a
few words to -th memory of her
useful life.-; .
Forty-eight yean ago Mr. and
Mrs. Pound arrived in Aumsvllle
Crem . Kansas with' a number of
smalt' f children. ' They were - not
only seeking a borne la this mild
climate where they might better
their, financial condition . but they
were also interested In locating
in a community bf good schools
and among church going people
where their children might be
brought up under the most favor
able circirmstsnees.
Finding no church organizations
here rith which they had affiliat
ed in their; former home they at
tended the Christian church and
took especial Interest, la the Sun
day school -where they became reg
ular attendants tend soon proved
that the studying of the bible was
not new? to those children but
that , they bad" been' brought up
under Its teaching trout childhood.
;v During ' my long' acquaintance
with Mrs. Pound I never heard
her speak HI ot anyone, neither
did J ever hear any one speak ill
of her.-Falthf ully and.-uuIeUy her
uiorwas apent in living for others,
ready at an times to help In times
ot need.
'After moving. to Salem she had
the privilege ot uniting with; the
church ct her ahoica where she
became a useful member. IXower

At no time should they be al-

of growing In one place for two

In one garden, the gardener

will bloom some In autumn.
i Plans for Porch Boxes
I, also did some investigating In
the porch box Una. Geraniums
are, of course, one of the best and
most satisfactory porch box
plants. Plans should be made be-
fore the boxes are planted. One
Iran plan for an old-fashioned
nosegay sort of box with mixed
colors, or a pink and blue box, or
a white and red box if there are
dozens of different kinds that
work out nicely. In the old-fash-
loned one you might combine fus-
chlas, petunias, geraniums and
heliotrope. Some dusty miller will
alo do well. The pale single pink
'cranium combines nicely with

likely the cause ot the mortality ,
among your young seedlings.
Damplng-of f may occur beiore
the plantlet breaks through the
soil after germination, or it may
attack the seedlings after they
emerge from the solL Too. much
moisture, improper ' ventilation
snd overcrowding of plants
causes ' the stems to rot oft at
the surface of. the soli. ' To pre
vent damplng-oft dust seed be
fore sowing with Semessn or
some similar organic mercury
preparation. When seedlings ap
pear, water with a weak solution
ot an organic mercury prepara
tion. There are several good
trade-marked products on tbe
market. Another method of seed
treatment la to use red . copper
oxide dust before planting. A
pinch of this dust the size ot in
apple seed Is all that Is neces
sary to treat an average-sized
packet of seed. Merely place the
chemical and the seed in a. small
jar or other tight container, and
shake thoroughly until each seel
is covered with the dust. Warn
ing is given that there are a few
types of seeds which It Is not
sdrlseable to treat, or if treated,
this should be done with cau
tion. Authorities advise using
it with caution on dianthus.
annual chrysanthemums, clarkia.
petunia, zinnia, ageratum and
gaillardia.
F. N. N. After-blooming care
of permanent plantings of tu
lips: Whether you Intend to al
low the bulb to remain In the
soil throughout the season from
one year to the next, or whether
yon dig and replant yourbulbs
each year, this after-blooming
car requires almost the same
procedure. (
Remove Faded Blooms
First remove all faded flow
ers that have not been used for
cutting. This will prevent seed
development and the energy that
would otherwise go to the pro
duction of seed is thereby di
verted to the bulb. Allow the
foliage to remain intact until It
has ripened and died down. If

you plan on leaving your tulips
in the soil, you should have
planted them about 8 Inches deep
so that the soli can be worked
without disturbing the bulbs.
Plant food can readily be applied
and worked into the soil and
annuals planted In the tulip bed.
Apply one rounded tablespoonful
of the food to each square foot
of. surface area and work l'ghtly
In. It is best to use shallow
rooted annuals such as portulaca.
petnnia. annual phlox, verbena,
California poppy, asters. Some
of these are self-sowing and a
bed started this way may be
good for two or three seasons,

neat as one replanted each year.
If you must have your tulip
bed free of bulbs, carefully lift
the plants as soon as they are
through blooming and plant
them elsewhere to mature. Tu
lips need not be replanted until
fall.
