person on being t Id to experiment,
in this year’s garden, with the new
flowers of 1938. Well, there art
new flowers every year,—actually
new kinds, never before grown. Foi
example:
This again is going to be a great
marigold year,—because of the new
types of marigold. Why are they
new? Because until last year, mari-
golds all had a strong odor in their
foliage which many people did not
like. I-ost year appeared the first
odorless marigold, and won im
rnense popularity aa well as many
prizes. This year we shall have
three more odorless marigolds, on a
of clear canary color (Yellow
Crown), one typical collarette type
(King’s Hansom), one superb car
uation-flowered kind called Burpee
Gold after the man who developed
it.
Marigolds were chosen for this
Intensive breeding work because
they have most of the qualities of
the Ideal flower. They are hardy,
bloom early and long and late, they
have long stems and are ideal for
picking and arranging in bowls and
vases, and they most generously

The federal government, unfortu-
nately. does not follow the excellent
example set by millions of Its citl-
lens. Its expenditures for the our
yean ending June 30. 1937 (not In-
cluding those made under trust
fundi) aggregated approximately
thirty-ona billion dollars, whereas Its
(•venues aggregated only seventeen
billion dollars The deficit for the pe-
riod was thus fourteen billions, and
the annual sverag* deficit was three
and one-half billions. This huge defi-
cit waa incurred despite greatly in-
creased taxes and much higher rev-
enue*. At the prese^ time the na.'
tional debt is 50% higher than it vas
at the close of the World War. and
twice as high as it was six years ago.
Recently the President Informed
the country that the federal expendi-
tures will exceed the revenues foi
the next two flsc.-J years, which
means that th earliest date at which
the budget will be balanced is for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1940.
The principal reason why the bud
get remains unbalanced is that the
expenditures are enormous. Las: Jan-
uary the President estimated the ex-
penditures for the year ending June
30. 1938. at $7,408,000,000. exclusive of
debt retirement, and for the year end-
ing June 30, 1939. at $6,869,000.' 10:
but he pointed out that these esti-
mates can not be relied upon, as ad-
ditional expenditures may become
necessary to national defense and
relief.
Were the government to follow the
"pay as you go" policy its expendi-
tures would be much less. To obtain
seven billion dollars by taxation, il
would be nccessar, to raise tax rates
and to discover new sources of taxes

Income tax exemptions would have

The outcry at the present time is rei
sufficiently great to curtail the spynd-
ing. because the Government Is fi-
nancing the deficit by borrowing. But
obviously this can not go on indefi-
nitely. Sooner or later. It national

“Good Lumbar Since 1872”
Dear Son:
We welcome you and Helen back from your honey-
moon. After you’ve settled a bit, we’ll drop in to see
your new borne.
I remember the day, some thirty years ago, when
your mother and I came back to our first home. I split
kindling for the kitchen stove and it took mother all af-
ternoon to bake some bread. Instead of her vacuum-
cleaner, mother had a broom . . . and how she made it
fly. But our prize possession was in the parlor ... a
real talking machine, with chubby cylinder-records and
a big morning-glory horn. ...
We used to march for miles all over town on our
shopping trips. How I fidgeted while mother shopped.
We were both worn out.
Things have changed a lot since then, all right-and
you’ll both be better off for it. Helen won’t have to
spend half her days in the kitchen like mother used to.
The advertisements in the daily newspaper will save
her those punishing miles of shopping. They’ll keep
her posted on current values, give her the names of de-
pendable products, tell her all about special sales.
When you come home nights, you’ll find her fresh as a
daisy ... ready for a jolly evening with your friends.
I’ll trade the “good old days’’ for the NEW days any
day. ......
But enough of reminisence ... I rejoice in the excit-
ing years of youth that are ahead for you both.
Affectionately,
Dad
