The Cultivation Of Fax Seed.

The following article is taken from
the circular of TrumbulI, Reynolds
Allen, Kansas City, and is published by
request.-ED.
The cultivation of fax seed has in.
creased wonderfully in this section of the
country during the past two years
Two years ago when we first commenced
to give attention TO the fax crop, there
was but little raised in Kansas and West.
ern Missouri, and our transactions in
fax amounted to but a few car loads.
The year following, or in the spring OF
1873, we loaned a few hundred bushels
to the farmers to SOW, and our transac-
tions in the fall amounted to several
thousand bushels. In the spring of 1874
we loaned about six times the amount
that we did in ~, and yet were not able
to answer more than one-fourth the de-
mands made upon rs. The crop yielded
well, and was really the only paying
crop raised i'm many sections of Missouri
andKansas the past year. Where chinch
bugs and grasshoppers took wheat and
corn, the fax seed crop was uninjured.
1t has, in fact for several years past,
proved the surest crop raised in this
section. In johnson county, Kansas,
where there was more raised the past
season than in any other county in the
State, there are farmers who have raised
fax for the last ten years and never dur
ing that period have missed raising q
crop. During the past season we have
made fax seed quite a speciality; have
handled the bulk of the seed in Western
Missouri and Kansas; have made this a
market for fax seed second to none in
the West, and propose in the future to
make it a special branch of our business.
We want the farmers of Western Missou-
ri and Kansas to find just as good q
market near at home As they can find
east of us. We shall aim to have an
agent in each locality where fax seed is
raised in any quantity, to buy for us,
and if you have any independent" fax
seed to sell you will do we'll to inquire
for our agents, and if there is none in
your locality write US direct.
We have loaned large amount to the
farmers for the coming season have a.
ready promised what we have in hand,
but we shall endeavor to procure stock
to fill all orders from those who wish to
buy, but we shall no doubt have to pay
pretty good figures in order to obtain it,
and those who buy must not be too
greatly surprised at the price. There is
an immense demand for it this season for
seed purposes, and it is being rapidly
picked up. Yet we would advise all
farmers to have your own seed, even if
you do pay high price for it, and then

and the whole surface Of my skin being covered
with pimples and eruptiOns, many of which

ground. In using the superior use the
opening of the grain feed.
Not over half bushel, in any case
should be sown per acre. By thin
sowing the stalks will be stronger and
throw out vigorous branches, which will
produce large bolls filled with plump,
glossy seed, containing q very large per
cent. of oil. By thick seeding the
plants are less strong, branch but little,
the sun can strike only the tops of the
plants, and the seeds will be smaller,
lighter and will not contain within fifteen
or twenty per cent. the amount Of oil
the seeds will when raised by thin SOW
ing.
Flax should be cut as soon as the bolls
begin to turn brown and while the stalk
is yet green. If left standing too long,
there will be a crest loss of seed in har-
vesting. Farmers are usually we'll
through harvesting spring wheat before
fax is ready to cut, and it ripens consid-
erably later than winter wheat.
Some farmers use . cradle, but a
large majority machine, where one can
be obtained that will cut it. We have
sold a large number of Champions the
past season for cutting fax. Several of
the standing machines will cut it, and
we do not know how the immense crops
of fax would be gathered if it were not
for machines. The Champion is partic-
ularly adapted to it, as it is strong, has
a quick motion, and the selfrake will
throw it off in gavels just as you want it.
1t cuts high 30 that it leaves the fax on
the stubble, and not fat on the ground,
where it is liable to be injured from
damp ground.
Some use fail, some a machine, and
some tread out with horses. In most
sections, where a large quantity is
raised, it is threshed out with a machine.
The principle of the endless apron ma
chine is not 50 we'll adopted to threshing
it.
When it is dry, thresh it at once, or
stack it. There is nothing Injuries fax
so much as water, in q damp state it
blackens, and blasts the seed, reducing it
in value to great extent, and, we would
say if you cannot obtain thresher as
soon as it is dry, do not run the risk of
rain, but stack it.
Cleaning seed is an item in raising fax
that must have great attention from
farmers. Until lately the makers of
tanning mills had little or no experience
with it, and SO furnished no screens suit
able; but now some of them furnish a
flax screen, with which large amount
of the foul seeds can be removed and
there is certainly no excuse for trans
porting dirt at a high rate of freight, to
the damage of the crop in the market,
and the great annoyance of the manufac-
turer, who has to separate every particle
Of it before crushing the seed. The diff.
ference in price between lots of seed
belonging TO different parties is mainly
determined by the manner in which it
is cleaned by the farmer.
Flax yields in this country from eight
% fifteen bushels to the acre; ten bush
is to the acre is good average. We
nave heard ofsome yields as high as TWEEN
" three bushels, and scores of farmers
'.pors fifteen bushels to the acre.
The cost of production is about the
anne as wheat, harvesting less expensive
,ut cleaning trifle more, so that it may
'e safely put down as costing less to
aise fax than wheat.

THE WORLD IS WHAT We MAKE IT.

I've seen some people in this life
Who always are repining,
Who never, never yet could see
The torm-clOud's silver lining.
There always something is smiss,
From sunrise to its setting;
That Gods hand made their map oflife.
They seem the while forgetting.
And have seen q blessed sight
To sin-beclouded vision,
Some people who, where'er they be,
Make earth seem an Elysicn.
They always see the brightest side
The direful shadows never
And keep the flower of hope in bloom
Within their hearts forever.
The one can make the sunniest day
Seem wondrous sad and dreary;
The other smiles the clouds away,
And makes dark day CHEEKY.

About as we shall make it.

and to preserve the land on which it is

often experience great difficulty in OBJ
tanning such seed, Is no ordinary fan.

enemies of the farmer, and good fax.
With good seed 10 SOW there is nothing
like fax as preparatory crop for wheat.
The testimony of Ohio farmers. where
fax has been extensively grown for over
a quarter of a century, is explicit on this
point.
The seed should be sown as soon in the
spring as the land can be got in proper
condition-say the latter part of March
to the middle of April. The seed is
scattered evenly and thiniy ever the
surface of the ground by hand. Itshould
be covered by drawing brush over it,
instead of narrowing it, as by the latter
method it is covered too deep. Osly a |
very slight covering is required. A
heavy rain Immediately after the seed
ing will cover the seed sufficiently, or
drawing heavy roller over the ground
will answer the same purpose. But in
these cases the soil must have been made |
very mellow and fine before sowing the
'eed. A great many are now using
irills, where the feed is adapted to it,
which is the case with the Superior
Drill. The hoes of the drill should be
'aised and only the points enter the
