A reflective piece on a summer of tending flowers with mixed feelings. The narrator admits a secret relief at Autumn’s first freeze ending the care burden, noting wife and neighbor did most work while he resented the duty. He recalls roses, petunias, a purple vine, and the fight against sloth while fearing the cost of letting nature run wild. The piece ends with a resolve to emancipate himself from the floral cage.
The narrator describes resisting frost by covering petunias with a spare blanket, hoping to save them. After sleepless, uneasy nights, a shift in attitude leads to action, and they finally sleep better. The episode reveals a conflict between comfort and care for fragile plants.
Rep Martin urges tougher stance against Russia and Cuba. He condemns concessions on onsite inspections for atmospheric tests and warns of communist threats near Florida. He cites the WPA pork barrel bill and a mistaken amendment restoring an Office of Works Progress Planning as evidence of weak policy and political maneuvering.
Objection on the floor forces the bill back to the House for another vote under a unanimous consent rule. The speaker hopes to gain about ten more no votes to defeat the measure, criticizing leadership for the misstep and calling for another House passage attempt. The week features a quote criticizing Administration medicare and farm bills as the "New Frontier" effort to cow the doctors and doctor the cows. Visitors from the district include Charles E. Martin and family and Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Munson and son, with kitchen tips on custard fillings and bean prep.
