Flax Culture.

A correspondent of the Sioux City
Press says: do not think there is
single state in the Union where the
flax cannot be successfully raised. Be-
ing myself a.native!ofIreland, and liter
ally diving, moving and having my
being in an atmosphere of flax; work
ing all my days with it; practically
using it in every branch of its manu-
facture, feel myself competent to
judge.
For six years past | have been look
ing up the climate and flax in America.
This country with all its varied condi-
tions of heat and moisture, is wonder
fully adapted to the growth Of flax in
all it's degrees of fineness. Ireland
cannot confine itself to its own raising.
| 1t must call on France with its sunny
skies, to grow for it the finest fax.
Germany and Russia must come in
with the heavier fibre. have practi-
cally tested American flax fibre i'll
every process of manufacture, and
find in it as good, if not better, quail
ties than any other raised in the
world. The wonderful inventions of
| the last year in machines for decOrti-
| eating the product just as it comes
from the field, doing away entirely
with the tedious process of retting
| machines, which every farmer can
run by hand or steam; the still more
complete process of begumming, leav-
ing the fibre clean, soft and ready for
the spindles, and last, but not least,
the new bleach of snowy whiteness
accomplished in two hours time, all
combine to make the cultivation and
| manufacture of flax a complete sue
cess in America.
When firmly established. Europe
cannot compete with us. | marvel at
the dullness and slowness of Ameri-
can manufacturers in this most i'm
portant industry of the day. How
can you sleep when Europe is looking
with longing eyes at your fair fields,
just waiting for an opportunity to
come in and reap the hountiful har.
vest9 Why should you send $55,000,.
900 per year to foreign countries
when as good goods can be produced
in your own country from the native
product! Why not give your treasure
to your own farmers and workers;
enriching your selves; making idle
hands busy and desolate homes full OF
ease and plenty. Do not overlook the
Importance of fax as a crop.

A National Missionary Conference
will be held in Indianapolis, Ind,
Sept. Sd to 9th, inclusive. The object
of the meeting is not to promote the
interests of any special agency, or to
call attention to any definite field OF
missionary work, but afford an op-
portunity for rrayerful study of the
Masters commands, Matt. 9:3S and
28:19. Nothing is more startling to
the thoughtful Christian than the
fact that of the fifteen hundred mil
lion now inhabiting the earth scarcely
five hundred million have heard the
Word of Life. To meet the immedi-
ate needs of the fields now open to the
missionaries of The Cross 100000
workers are wanted within the next
twelve months. AT the indianapolis
Conference such well known men as
Bishop William Taylor of Africa and
Geo. F. Pentecost will be present. A
preliminary meeting to interest the
Christian people of Morris will be
held in the Congregational church
Monday, Aug. IS, at s p. M, and will
be addressed by one of the secretaries,
Mrs. w. J. Harris, of st. Paul.

Advice to Farmers Who Raise Flax.


We copy the following from the
Minneapolis Tribune oflast Saturday.
It will be Of interest to the farmers of
Stevens county who raise flax: Yes
terday Secretary w. ID. Hall, of the
board of trade received letter from
one of the gentlemen who are to
establish linen mill at Minneapolis,
which contains ayice of Importance
to the farmers of the state. The
gentleman states that good profit
can be realized upon the fax crop of
this year II certain iney pensive pre-
cautions are taken, rs every pound of
fibre can be utilized. He says the
farmes should not permit their flax to
grow beyond the golden yellow
stage,u but to cut it then with their
selr-binders and let it stand in the
field until it Is ready for the threshing.
BY this means they would secure both
good seed and fibre, which they could
not do If they permitted the flax to
get too ripe before cutting. He adds:
"Every thing points to good market
for all their straw if they cut 1t low
down and save it in threshing."

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,
ILL.,, makes the statement that she
caught cold, which settled on her
lungs; she was treated for month
by her family physician, but grew
worse. He told her she was hope
no medicine could cure her. Her
druggist suggested DR.. Kings New
Discovery tor Consumption; she
bought o bottle and to her delight
found herself benefited from first
dose. She continued its use and
after taking ten bottles, found herself
sound and well, now does her own
housework and is as we'll as she ever
was.-Free trial bottles of this Great
Discovery at Fritz Buckentin's drug

A Washington dispatch of the 9Th,
inst. says: According to the
returns by postal cards from Mime
sofa, the population of that state is
I,45e,s73. While these figures are not
accurate, they are close enough to
practically assure Minnesota of three
additional members under the new re-
apportionment unless it is determined
not to increase the size of the house,
in which case the state would get no
additional members. If the present
size of the house is retained, it would
be on basis of about 10000 popula-
tion to each member. The general
impression is that the number OF
representatives will be increased. and
that 175,000 to each member will be
the ratio, in which event Minnesota
will be easily entitled to eight
members.

There is nothing so mean as to
make light of persons language or
nationality. We are all of the same
family, marching forward with the
same object in view. Some have had
advantages, and others have not, some
have had to adopt language foreign
to their own, in so doing, have found
that with all their labor, the imperfec-
tion of language, and accent will
manifest themselves. Then how care
full those persons should be who have
not had to overcome these hardships,
not to throw out slurs or make sharp
criticisms, on the inperfectness of
another's language.-Wilmar Argus.
True enough. And thereis another
thing that is just about as mean and
reprehensible, viz: For any one to
deny his or her nationality and at
tempt to mislead the community as
to the place of their birth, as is some
times the case. We hold that the
man or woman who will deny his or
her nationality. religion or politics is
about the most contemplate person
that can be found. And still there
are persons who are inclined to do 1t.

For State Senator.

It has been some time since Stevens
county had representative in the
legislature of the state who was a
resident of this county. All of the
other counties in the district have
had representatives since our county
has, and this year the Republicans of
this county propose to be represented
in the senate by one of their own
men. Hon. Ell. w. Stone, ST., who is
a candidate for the nomination for
the state senate is a gentleman we'll
known to the people of this legisla-
tive district; man of ripe experience
and well posted in legislative matters
and the wants of the people of the
state of Minnesota; man who is in
hearty and earnest sympathy with the
interests of the agricultural class of
our state, being himself practical
farmer; man who has had expert
ence in the halls Of legislation, and
will command respect and weld an
influence if elected to represent the
district in the legislature; man of
undoubted integrity and honesty of
purpose, and who if elected would
need no watching to see if ssboodleo
was finding it's way into to his pockets;
a man who has for many long years
been Republican under all circum-
stances, and who proposes to remain
a Republican just SO long as the party
remains true to the best interests of
the people. Such man is Mr.. Stone,
the man we propose to nominate for
state senator at the approaching
legislative convention, and the man
we propose to elect next November
and we will do it.

The readers of the TRIBUNE are,
no doubt, aware of the fact that a
railway tunnel is being constructed
uader the st. Clair river between the
United States and Canada, for the
accommodation of the immense rail-
road triffic which crosses that river
at Detroit, Michigan. The tunnel
will extend from Port Huron, Mich,
on the American side, to Sarnia, on
the Canadian side. The walls of the
tunnel, says the Scientific American,
are composed of cast iron segments,
thirteen of which and key form the
circle. The work of eXcavating is be-
ing done by the Beach Hydraulic
Shield, the same as was used in exca-
waiting under the streets of New
York and Lundon. The tunnel when
completed will be $3.50 feet in length
from cutting to cutting, and is divi-
ded as follows: From the American
cutting to the river edge, l.oOO feet;
from the Canadian cutting to the
river edge, 1850; and distance across
the St. Clair River, 2.300. Of this
8.O5O feet ALSO feet has already been
constructed, viz, 2,2l5 feet on the
American side and 1895 on the
Canadian. 1t is now thought that the
tunnel will be completed for traffic
within eighteen months. One re-
markable fact connected with this
great piece of engineering is the few
accidents that have happened during
the work of construction, the most
servious of which up to date is one
broken leg. A tunnel, formed OF
sections of cast iron, the same as is
now being used for the tunnel under
the st. Clair river, was invented and
patented some twenty years ago by
M. G. Freeman, of Bloomington, Ill,
a model of which we have seen and
examined. 1t was great invention.
What became of Mr.. Freeman's
patent We are not aware. Joseph
Hobson, of Hamilton. Ontario, has
the credit of originating the idea of
using cast iron segments in the con-
struction of the above tunnel, but we
are inclined to think he got his ideas
from Freeman's patent.
