Brantley brought to the Statesman office, yesterday a sam ple of flax grown on his farm a mile south ot Aumsville, that came from a field of 8 acres that will ave'rage now about '34 Inches high'. and is almost ready to bloom. It gives indications - of making a splendid yield of as fine flax as can oe grown anywnere. Mr. Brantley has a total of 140 acres of flax, all of which looks fine. He Is growing the flax for the state flax plant. ,f-- r J ' ':- r :' Mr. Brantley has a flax pulling machine, bought from the state last year; so he will bd ready for the harvest,' which will begin not many weeks' In the future. Mr. Brantley says . the prospect for a fine flax crop- in the Aums ville district . is ' the . best he has seen for years. Most of his neigh bors whb ares growing flax are prepared to irrigate; but it looks now like no irrigation will be nec essary, at least for 'the early sown flax. The field from '"which the sample mentioned above was . tak en nras sown March 3d. This is the second year for flax in that field; but Mr. Brantley has had flax in ! most of ' his . fields from three to five years, and It shows up as well as some in the fields of neighbors who are growing flax for ! the first time this year, . on well fertilized soil. . Mr; and Mrs, firahtley prepared the 'ground and put in all their 140 acres of flax, without paying but a single cent, for help: and they put on i 53 acres or Ismail grain be sides. After their; short crops Of last year, they were left In no con dition to be lavish with expendi tures for help. Mrs, Brantley drove the! drill that wis used tqf sow the flax and the grain. These people surely deserve the feeling that comes with having such prospects for good crops as thev now see. They represent Ihe kind of people on the land who will , bring this country to the front, if there is cooperation all down the line, in providing them: witaj good mar kets, through " manufacturing plants in the towns and cities.

Such events, they claim, are not good Americanism on May 30." It Is very possible that the in terest in Memorial day, a day set apart 57 years ago to commemo rate the deeds of the men who died in defense of their country, is not as great 'on the part of the younger patriotic organizations as In the older ones, but if this be a fact it only emphasizes the great importance of a continuation of the older patriotic organizations. It has been said by many that when the last member of the Grand Army of the Republic has been laid to rest the mission of the .Sons1, of Veterans would, In greater part have been fuTrTiled, as the members of the later wars would take up the patriotic work laid down by these grand old men of . 1861-5 Son of a Veteran, I would like to believe this, and hope that the inference drawn by the reporter Is not correct. The, very fact that snch an in stitution as the Oregon Agricul tural college is losing interest in the men who fought that the Un ion might be preserved is one evi dence that the younger generation is losing interest In the Ideals of our really true patriots. Commer cialized military; demonstration on Memorial day, in the mind of a true patriot, is mockery. E..T..PRESCOTT MISSING MAN IS FOUND ' SEATTLE. May 28J. H.
