"Steve" Dorsey, the Senator of Star lloute fame, has "touched" London cipilallsts for S50 1,000 to open a ItO stamp gold mine in California. Indianapolis bankers have begun a move to retire the $303,000,000 green backs, to remove all cause for distrust, and to "give polcl a chance." The Jouk.val. does not have to deny that it is owned by any banket. No lntellieut. banker would touch it with ti ten-foot pole,as an investment. Of course, Dr. Smith, C. B. Moores andT. T.

The gold standard press, owned by the corporations ard bankers who are the tools of foreign capltal.openly ad Vocate retirement of $750,000,000 of non-Interest bearing paper money and Issuance of that amount of gold bonds. Three New Yorkers are to be pro vided fer: Tom Piatt is to be senator; Cornelius 3ST. Bliss Is to go into the ca binet; and something Is to bo done with dude millionaire Whitelaw Held of the Tribune. Tlie eastern money-loaning news papers rejoice that 'Oregon has not put herself in the black list with States like Washington, Nebraska and Colorado. Will Oregon prosper ahead of those States? Time will tell. Salem people arc talking of a mass meeting of business men to protest against the new schedule, under the combine with the river boats.

Among the incidental contributions to the anti-Bryan campaign is the letter of N. A. Dunning, Populist leader, repudiating fusion.

Fruit and hop drying continued until about the20th, when practically all was finished. The price of hops increafcing 100 per cent dm lug the month has been the means of causing altcntiou to be di rected to t he hotter caic of hop yards for next year's crop. Owing to the dryness but lit Ho plowing could be done during the month. The rHe in the prh-eor giain has caused greater preparation than usual to be made for an increased acreage next year, so that manv thousand acres will be sown to grain between the present time and next June. West of the Cas cades ulowing and seeding can be done duiing the entire winter sea son and tho same condition prevails over the gicatcrpart of the country east of the Cascades, except from December t-j Match. The picking and storing of apples was active during the month, As has been btated in former bulle tins the fruit crop was nearer to a failutc lu Oregon this year than ever before. rCwwiubtsr Bulletin. Flax Culture. Since Oregon furiueig are getting considerable encouragement along the line of llax raising by the possibil ity of its being manufactured, they are becoming more or lesj interested in the culture ot this famous libre plant. There is a general belief that the growth of llax is detrlmctal to land, which Is surly unfounded In fact, and thousands of farmers could be found to testify to that effect. Our experience of growing flax for 12 years In Dakota entirely convince us that it was not seriously affecting tho ftrtility of our soil. Always where a crop of llax preceded oats the latter crop was benefited very much, and when there was a reasonable amount of moisture preceding the flax crop the latter was beneficial to the oat crop in a remarkable degree. Tlie soil was always mellow, clean of foul stuff and in about the same condition as when sown to field peas. Our ex perience with over a thousand acres fully demonstrated to our satisfaction that llax Is not so dangerous as some people imagine. This is fully eon firmed by what Prof. Snyder of the Minnesota experiment station says In his bulletin. Unless the conditions In Oregon would entirely change the chemical effects of flax on the soil there need be no groat danger as to the Impover ishment of the strong soils of Oregon, The following is the gist of Prof. Snyder's bulletin: It has been unpopularly supposed that the growing of flax removes a large amount of fertility from the soil, The Minnesota Experiment Station has just issued a bulletin on fiax which shows that It does not remove an ex cessive amount of fertility. In fact, an average yield of 15 bushels of llax seed per acre will remove less fertility than 150 bushels of potatoes,45 bushels of corn, or 30 bushels of wheat. It is true that fiax will not thrive on the same soil where it has been grown for at least llvo years previously, bo cause tho fiax straw and roots in their decomposition produce products which will destroy n following llax crop. When live or seven years Intervene be tween two llax crops, then tho old straw and crop residue is thoroughly decomposed and will not Injure a now fiax crop. For successful flax raising on soils worn by grain cropping, a lib- rMiortrMr Cheapest, Becauso tho Best, GAIL BORDEN EAGLE BRAND CONDENSED MILK Rend for that little- book, "Infant Health:" irreat valua to mothers.

The manure should be applied to grain crops, and not direct to the fiax. Then agowl yield of llax can be obtained and no injuiy to the soli will follow. Flax is a weak feeding crop.possess ingbut little power of obtaining its food from the holl. It absorbs the larger portions of Its nitrogen, phos phoric acid and potash during the first 40 or 50 days of its growth. In or der to -supply the food in so short a time the soil must be lu a high state of fertility. It has been positively proven that there Is nothing in the old bug-a-boo about lbx being ruinous to land and those farmers who have continually raised llax for 23 years have no great fears and Hud it not only profitable, beneficial as a rotation. Tlie writer has grow u 14 bushels of seed per acre and that being the third consecutive crop and without manure. There is no crop which will respond to manure so read II v as llax. A light top-dress Ing imediately after seeding will largely Increase the growth or straw production of seed. The various kinds of fiax raised for seed differ largely as to long or short, fine or coarse straw, thus when making tt)o bpeotun It n well to find the best adapted to this locality.

State mail advices furnish the fol lowing review of the New York hop maiket) Conditions are evidently changing a little and the position of the mar ket on fine goods is firmer than it has been for some time past. The volume of business on the local mar ket Is not large, poaslbjy because of the limited quantity of such stock as Is wanted. Inquiries from across the water are much more numerous and shippers would pay 10JUc for pholce lots pf either state or Pacific coast. English nmrkotu have boon doing better of late and this has turned shippers attention 'this way. Brewers have noted the increasing interest of exporters and have lately been more willing to look at samples, With some business resulting. The strength of the njarket, however, Is confined closely to fine goods. Every one seems to think that there is an abundance of under grade stock, and this will be the last to feel any im provement. Old hops are also moving very slowly, though values for choicg show a slight hardening tendency. Fair sales are reported in the interior of this state, but buyers are culling oyer the growth and picking out the bosst, Tho more we sec of the new state crop the jnpre we are convinced of the generally poor quality; a few line growths are in the best sections but these are either not offering at present or hold for a Jhigher price, Considerable activity Is reported on the Pacific coast, with sales of best lots at 7i8c. There is some inquiry for strictly choice hops, and such aro salable to fair advantage, as compared with prices which have been lately current. Lower grades aro not being sought after. The demand Is mainly for Europe, the crop thore, particularly in Germany, having been damaged liioro or less in Maturing. Prices are stUl too low to afford much encourage ment to producsrs. Fair tg choice, 1890 crop 7i(o)10 Beet Sugar, At tho new Beet Sugar factory, at Menomonco Falls, AYls., many aro un der contract to raise a certain quant, Ity or beets for ten years. The, fact ory has about au 8(5 day run and 20, 000 barrels of sugar Is alio expected result. Farmers aro'getting $4 a ton for their beets, which aro averaging about 15 tons per acre. What a bo nanza such a factory would be for Sa lem, Let us have a Beet Sugar fact ory. The Fool Wool Growers.

The largest output of elder ever known In New York state is reported. The National Horse Shov associa tion has Increased Its prizes to $33,000. American apples arc totalling in Hamburg at from 4 to 8 shillings per cental. Have you forgotten some of that beautiful road dust for your poultry for the winter. One or tlie -great benefits derived from a sugar beet factor is that to the dairyltiL' Interests in the shape of residue at the mill. The pulp is bought by the farmers for 15 cents per ton and many farmers are filling silos in tho California sugar districts. Its value is only becoming well known or late years. Formerly the entire product was a total loss, now tl)o entle output s utljlsied. Commending au article from a Hartford, Conn., paper, In favor of retiring the greenbacks and le,al tender notes, the Oregouian copies the following, with appiobatlen: Tho people of tho United States want sound money and good govern ment, and they hayc said so emphatic ally, Tnis does not mean another grand shake-up of tho tariff schedules lu fulfillment of pledges to favored interests. The country told Mr. Mc Klnley and his friends in 1892 wil It thought of lilm as a tariff "reformer." With a run on all the eastern banks causing a scarcity of currency it is interesting to know that the salva tion of "sound money" depends on the destruction of the most valuable feature of our currency system. The Oregonlan wants a registration law under which a certificate could be given a man to show he had regis tered and upon tlie production, of wljich he could go and vote anywijero in the state! That would be a de lightful snap for tlie Portland cor ruptionlsts. What a multitude of voters they would arm with travelling voting certificates! And the railroads and steamboats would recognise them as a pass too, If they had the proper countersign. Oil, Harvey; that is too thin!

Budding time the time when girl hood blossoms into womanhood is a trying period in every woman's life. Much depends on the care aud the treatment given thenn lifetime of tealthy happiness, or years of suffer ing sickness. To bring girls safely through thii critical period, Dr. Pierce's Favorite. Prescription has been found an un failing aid. It is a preparation of strongly tonic pro pertles.

It works in a perfectly natural way, and drive? out disease fry building up the strength and purifying the whole system. Many modest women and girls suffer unspeakable torments ' because they dread telliug their troubles to a phy sician. They fear the almost inevitable examinations and "local treatment." These things are usually wholly un necessary. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will do what not one doctor in a hundred can rlo-i-it will cure.
