Those attending from Medford High school will be Miss Nancy Adams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, G.

Miss Carolyn Ed wards has been selected from Crater High school, and her par ents are Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Ed wards; Miss Judy Hout, daugh ter of Mrs. LaVonne Hout, will represent Saint Mary's. . Girls' State is a practical ex perience ' in V - government in which which as citizens of a mythical state, the young wom en assume the duties of electing and serving as government offi cials. In their legislature, they introduce, debate and pass bills. They conduct court sessions, set lip county government and en act, and enforce city ordinances. First approved by the nation al organization of the American Legion auxiliary in 1936, Girls State is now carried on in each state and territory. It it cli maxed with Girls' Nation held in Washington, D.C., in which two girls from each Girls' State follow a similar pattern on a na tional level. Girls must be juniors in high school, and be outstanding in leadership to be considered as candidates for Girls State. Char acter, ability, and scholarship are also taken into considera tion. This year will be the sixteenth session held in Oregon, and the grils will leave Medford on June 10 for Willamette university in Salem, where Girls' State will be held.

Ask For PRINCESS NYLA Cosmetics Raising Flovers From Seeds Easy, Gardener Declares Some people just don't seem to know how really simple it is to raise flowers from seeds even if they do appreciate how much more economical it is than raising them from plants. Seeing the beautiful flowers in the garden of a friend or neighbor who grows everything from seeds, they seem to think that only an expert could get such results. But nothing could be further from the truth. I recall that one flower seed company several years ago used an amusing cartoon in its adver tising. A man who had obvious ly just planted a row of seeds was backing away from the row to avoid being hit by the sturdy plants that were popping from the ground. The slogan under the picture " read, "Plant triple tested flower seeds and jump aside!" Of course, this was an exag geration, but it ii no exaggera tion to say that once planted, it is almost impossible to keep many' flower seeds from grow ing into luxuriously flowered plants. Nature meant these seeds to grow, and they will do so despite poor soil, drought, lack of cultivation, weeds and cold. Zinnias Hardy Take Zinnias, for example. I have planted them quite careless ly (for me), when growing, con ditions were right soil warm and damp with a high tempera ture, and have ' come back in less than 72 hours to find the seedlings ' already out of the ground. The amazing rapidity with which most flower seeds sprout from the ground, grow into plants and produce blossoms is one of gardening's greatest thrills. Nothing is more satisfy ing for me than to walk into my garden in the early morning just to see what has happened during the night. Sometimes, if conditions have been just right, I can hardly recognize my own garden, so many seed lings have sprouted, so many new buds formed, and so many new blossoms opened into full beauty! This early morning in spection tour of one's garden gives a lift that lasts the whole day. It's a wonderful way to start out right. Many Easy-To-Grows There are lots of easy-to-grow varieties. Calendula seeds mere ly dropped into ordinary soil and kept moist (often normal spring rainfall is plenty), will push up as seedlings in three or four days. Nasturtiums one of the most colorfully beautiful of all flowers do not even require ordinary soil. In , fact, they';'actually':'dobetter in poor soil, producing more flowers and less foliage. (Nasturtium seeds will germinate faster if the seed is soaked in water the night be fore planting since this softens the outer seed covering.) . Among varieties so hardy and vogorous that , they grow almost like weeds, requiring very little attention, are bachelor's button, balsam, candytuft, carnation, castor bean, celosia, cosmos, di anthus, forget-me-not, four o' clock, gypsophila, hollyhock, hy acinth bean, marigold, ' morning glory, phlox, pinks, poppy, scar let runner bean and sunflower. Seedlings of these varieties appear almost before you know it, and in five or six weeks the buds appear. Soon the flowers open and you have a beauty spot of your own creation for all the rest of the season.
