LOCAL AFlAIllS
Falsehoods. Tho junior quillist of the Dtm
ocrat, a paper of China-phobia proclivities, prtut
cd in this city, the proprietors of which were
' overalawed" in a recent intellectual contest
with a colored barber, gets off several little false
hoods in its last issue. It is " informed " that
Dr. Hill did not promise that the Committee on
Printing would call on us before the meeting of
the next Council, and get our bid for the city
printing. The Dr. did make that promise, and
did not fulfill it. Tho "junior " was misinform
ed. The implied charge that a Republican Coun
cil established a precedent for giving the printing
to the party paper, regardless of price, is false.
The charge that the Republican Council of 1SC7
did not ." give a Democratic paper a chance" at
the city printing, is shown to be false, when it is
known that the Jiemncrat had th contract and
received more money from the city thau the
Juurnal during that year. The money received
by Mr. Pickett in 1867 was for printing the He
vised Ordinances," and was let to him because
his bid was lower than tho bid offered by the pro
prietors ( the Democrat Abbott A Brown. We
are informed by Mr. J. C. Meudenhall, a member
of the City Council of 18C7, that Mr. Pickett gen
erally attended the meetings of the Council, took
notes of the proceedings, which he published, and
iid not ask or receive one cent for such publication-
In every city where Republicans have con
trol, the city priutiug U done by contract, the
lowest bidder doing the work, as it is the sworn
duty of the members to act for the city as they
would for themselves. If it can be shown that
it is worth $o0 more to the city per year, to have
the Council proceedings printed in the Democrat
than it is to have them printed in the Register,
then we have no case ; if this cannot be shown,
then tax-payers are virtually robbed of $50, by
this ackion of the Council.
Fla,:x Seed. AVo call attention to the artielo
under this head from the pen of Mr. K. Cart
wrighi., agent for the California Oil Company.
The farmer, of February 19th, substantially
charges that Mr. C. has been furnishing Linn
eountj farmers with California raised flax seed
that iras foul with weed seeds. Mr. Cartwright
denie emphatically that he ever furnished a
pound of California raised (lax seed to our larmcrs,
and t it he ordered the first bag of East India
seed, ibont three years ago, directly irom Xew
York ; that flax seed ordered by him came in the
original packages. Mr. C. thinks that the Farmer
would; not intentionally do him a wrong by thus
mistating the case, and, therefore asks that it
publish his statement as printed in our columns
to-day. i ,
Th:ri Goowth. The lack of rain last Sum
mer was unfavorable to the growth of potatoes,
and when ' digging time " came round.it was
found that generally there were no potatoes to dig
all t"ps. The late Fall rains, however, gave
the potitoes a near start, and these second
growth'' follows were large and fine looking, but
when tested proved to be watery and not up to the
standard la consequence of this fact, some of
our farmers did not deem it worth while to dig
ttiem at jail, but let them remain in the ground.
Two weeks since, one of oar fricnd3 living a short
distance from the citv, upon examination found
that his pbtates had kept on growing all Winter,
and he is now luxuriating on splendid new po
tatoes of the third growth.
FLAX SEED.
Alb AST, March, 2d, 1870.
Editor Albany Renter Dear Sir: In a
recent issue of the Willamette 'eirmer, there ap
peared an item stating that the flax seed being
loaned out among the farmers in the State, was
full of California mustard, and other fonl seeds.
In relation to the matter, it will be no more
than just to say that the flax seed distributed by
the Pioneer Oil Company and myself was never
grown in California. The first bag of East India
seed wss ordered by myself, from Xew York eity,
for our own local mill at Salem some three years
ago. About a year ago Ibionght up from the
mills of the Pacific Oil and Lead Works of San
Francisco, the seed for sowing nearly one thous
and acres, every sack of which was just as it
came on shipment from tho East Indies.
Some two or three years ago, Messrs. II. Nick
crson and Houston, jointly imported from Cali
fornia seventy-five pounds of the same kind of
seed, and have since been Vowing and re-sowing
that seed and its annual yields, until this last
Fall, when the entire crop was sold to the Pio
neer Oil company, at Salem, for contracting pur
poses. I am not aware that the seed imported by
Messrs. Kiekerson and Houston was ever grown
in California, nor that tho seed produced so prof
itably by these enterprising gentlemen contained
any wnatcver of the California Mustard, or any
other foul seeds.
I admit the appearance of two kinds of rapo,
with a large quantity of radish seed, in that
brought to the State by mysulf. The first are
small, round, black seed, called severally the
" Brassica rapa,'" or common turnip; tho second,
tho Brassica napus, navew," or French turnip.
This last wild rape, or French turnip seed, is
nearly all oil, producing three gallons to the
bushel more than twice as much as flax seed. The
common turnip aud radish arc both extensively
grown in the East Indies by the natives, for
food. The wild French turnip also, for its rich
oil, and is used in mixing their bread, and ou
their salads and meats.
Some eighteen months ago, Dr. Keil, of Auro
ra, Mariou county, sent to our mill, at Salem,
eighteen bushels of this wild rape, or French tur
nip seed, grown on his iarm, for crushing. Di
rections were given for working it, and the result
was 52 i gallons of pure table oil. Those who ate
at the Laruian tables on the Fair grounds,or hap
pen to get a good dinner at Dutchtown, on,the
road to Portland, will at once acknowledge the
good qualities of this French turnip seed oil.
Both kinds of the turnip, and radish, as well as
the flax seed, are necessary and valuable crops in
that foreign country ; and we can readily account
for their mixture with the flax se?d just as cur
wheat is mixed with oats, barley, etc., when we
allow it to be so.
Last harvest my attention was called to the
fact that California mustard was growing among
the flax. I asked the gentleman if California
mustard had not grown on the farm before flax
was sown. He promptly admitted that the must
ard had precede! the flax on the farm. I take
great pleasure in saying that I have rot offered
a single pound of flax seed grown on that farm
to anjr man in the State.
There is now no need of any mans sowing
foul seeds with the flax. Our new fan and screens,
always on hand for everybody, will clean the seed
perfectly clean. Throw a peck of French turnip
seed with vnejl.xx Deed into these screens, and the
result will be that the flax seed will be saved,
and the rest thrown away.
The object of our operations in this respect is
nit to injure the good and valuable farms of the
State, but to enrich and benefit them. Oregon
will yet reap millions of dollars for her flax seed
and Cher. Willamette Farmer please copy.
Yours respectfully,
E. Cartwrkjht.
Mrs. Dcsiwat has just received a number of
Bartrain A Fanton Sewing Machines,- direct
from New York. It is claimed for these machines
that they are simple in construction, easily under
stood, make an elastic stitch, fasten their owu
ends, adjust their own needles, are easily moved
about on castors, (a convenience no other ma
chine possesses), have extra attachments for all
kinds of fancy work, and are always in running
order. They will seam, hem, fell, quilt, cord,
ruffle, embroider, braid, tuck or gather ; run
without noise, will not soil the operator's clothes,
and are sold at lower prices than any other table
machine in use. Price of machine,with black wal
nut table and drawer, oiled and waxed, fifty
five dollars. 23-3m
Sewixo Maciiixes. Messrs. Blain A Young
are averts for the sale of Sewing Machines, and
all the fixtures necessary thereto. This enables
those who wish to purchase any of the first-class
machines to get what they order at the lowest
cash price, and if anything should bo lacking, or
should get out of repair, these gentlemen will
take pleasure in furnishing the missing article, or
put the machine in running order, without extra
cost quite an advantage, as those who have pur
chased machines at a distance, have learned by
sad experience. No household is complete with
out one of these labor-savers, and if you want to
be sure of getting what you order, at the lowest
pri :e, and have it delivered to you in complete
running order, call at Blain and Young's and
leave your order. Suff ced.
