The second factor miking for the
new prosperity may be termed "the
discovery of flax." For years there
had been a few scattered flax fields,
but it was only In the middle "SO that
the Northwestern pioneer awoke to
the discovery that Unseed oil was of
more truly golden hue, not only than
the wheat Held, but than any gold
bearing quarts California ever saw.
And so the endless golden yellow of
the fields In August and the tinkling
bells In September, or the flax field
Those who have never heard the
ringing of the flax bells have rnlsscJ
a truly wonderful sensation. The
round sed pods, smaller than peas,
which contain the seed, give a faint
metallic sound which as one drives
or walks through a field, setting
thousands In motion seems like myr
iads of Infllnlteslmat bells tinkling so
faintly as to be all but Inaudible. Nor
is the mere sight of a flax field in the
mellow August soon to be forgotten.
Imagine a l(KV-acre field, filled with
flowers of a blue more delicate than
violets. And of Its profitable charac
ter one Illustration will suffice. In
June, 1900. Ole Jannsen bought 160
acres In the heart of the great flax
belt for 10 an acre on the crop pay
ment plan. Ole "broke up" that fall
and the next spring 135 acres and
amount of soluble nitrogen. It Is
well known that salt not only delays
!he formation of this soluble form of
nitrogen, so that the plant will make
a slower but more uniform and solid
growth, but It also retards the crea
tion of starch, and thus has a bad In
fluence on the flavor of fruits. Salt
attracts and absorbs moisture. For
the reason that salt retards the for
mation of starch it is apt to make
watery potatoes. Some plants as, for
Instance, asparagus, can use far more
salt than others.

Buried Seed.
The Department of Agriculture has
undertaken a series of experiments
Intended to answer, if possible, the
old question, "How Long Can Seods
' R main Buried In the soil and still re
tain their power of germination?"
Many extraordinary x stories have
been told of the prolongation of the
vitality of seeds during many years,
and even centuries, but very few actu
al experiments have hitherto been
made. 1
Dr. Beal has reported that he has
found seeds that responded to ger
mination tests after baring been
buried twenty years. The seeds bur
ied by the experts of the Agricultural
Department at the Arlington farm last
year were packed with dry clay in
porus clay pots, covered with saucers
and placed at various depths from 6
inches to 3V4 feet. There are 32 com
plete sets. In 358 pots, representing
100 species, 84 genera and 34 families.
Testa are to be given at the end of
one, two, three, five, seven, ten, fif

the electric light system will be
brought up for discussion. They will
make an effort to have the electric

more arc lights to reach this section
of the city. The members of this or

Cows Wear Spectacles.
On the steppes or prairies of Rus
sia cows wear spectacles, and one
may see a herd of several thousand
beants each provided with glasses.
The reason for this is not that Rus
sian cattle are shortsighted, but that
they suffer from mow blindness un
less their eyes are protected from the
glare of the snow-covered steppes.
When Spring arrives the fresh, green
grass comes peeping out from the
snow, and the cattle which are turn
ed out to feed upon It used to suffer
horribly till somebody Invented a
cheap kind of spectacle for them,
made of leather and smoked glass, to
protect them from the glare.

hen weights 4 pounds, so she cost the

Salt as a Fertilizer.
A number of years ago much as
said and published about the good re
turns secured by the use of salt on
grass and grain crops. It Is very sel
dom that anything Is written on the
subject nowadays. Probably the rea
son for this Is that the potash salts,
such as kalnlt and muriate, which con
tain a considerable amount of salt,
are more generally used, and as they
at the same time supply potash, their
use is considered more economical
than that of salt.
It Is knowa that all soils that are
able to produce crops contain all the
soda and chlorine that ordinary plants
need, which would prove that salt is
not a direct fertilizer. But on the
other hand, it belongs to that family
of substances that benefit crops by the
work they do in the soil rather than
by supplying plant food.
On very rich soil grain crops often
"lodge" or fall down, and this can be
prevented by the use of salt, as It
makes the stem shorter and harder,
and delays the ripening for a time.
At first It was thought that salt set
free certain minerals In the soil, such
as potash and silica, thus giving a
stiffer and harder straw. This, no
doubt, Is so to a certain extent, but
the main effect is to retard or check
the nutrificatlon processes. When
grown on a rich soil, it is the tendency
of plants to make a rapid and tender
growth.
A rich soil Is one containing a large

III. The Conservative Party It Or
ganlzes the National Will.
In the evolution by which party gov
ernment has become the extra-constitutional
method of securing responsi
bility to the people, the Republican
Party has become their traditional
representative and the Deomcratlc
Party the organized inspiration of In
dividuals for power without responsi
bility. Fairly tried, from 1893 to 1895,
the two Democratic Houses and the
Republicanism stands today for pro.
gresslve policies In safe hands. By
solving the constructive problems of
world power in the last two adminis
trations, William H. Taft taught the
world our capacity and us his own. In
all constructive legislation for twenty
years James 8. Sherman has been a

the past will be held and the greater
progress of the future will be assured.
