story:
II kept at my work as long as l could,
but nature gave way at last and sue

similar case as my own was brought to my
notice. This man had suffered very much

mine had, and yet he lad been cured.

LITERARY NOTES.

A publica ton that has won an envi-
able recognition among ladies in all
walks of life, is that inestimable and
withal popolar Ladies Home Journal
Its ascendency to the top pinnacle in
literary circles is due t. the fact of it's
proficient editorial management, who
rs none other than Edward w. Box,
one of the brightest and most popular
| characters for the work he has 50 sue
cessfully mastered in the United Sta ties.
His ideas seem to harmonic to nice
ty with the many admiring readers
and his associates upon the staff in
clude writers whose names have be-
come exceedingly popular around the
home fire side and circle. The Ladies
Home Journal for the coming year
promises its readers many happy sur
prises, and judging by the character
of its authors already engaged, SUBJ
scribers will feast upon the cream in
literary channels for the coming year
at least. Among the more famous who
have been engaged to contribute to
this popular paper might be mentioned
such favorites as Jerome X. Jerome,
Bret Hart, Frank r. Stockton, Mrs.
Burton Harrison, Jessie Bartlett Davis,
Conan Doyle, Kate Greenway, Palmer
Cox and many others equally as effic-
lent in point of knowledge and ability
to please and entertain. Lady lovers
of something truly divine in literary
reading will miss it in not subscribing
for the coming year.
The higher class of literary papers
and magazines for 1895 fairly TEEN
with interesting matter The writer's
seem to WELD more magical pens than
ever before, and those of illustrated
character fairly glisten with their mir
rors of subjects that the classical
scholar goes into ecestacies over.
Among the many publications that
can be classed as superb is none other
than that gem of thought, Outing. Its
handsomely printed pages are subjects
of great merit and no little credit is
due the publishers for their untirinr
energies in the selection of such sub
Jects as tend to please and instruct.
No home is complete without copy of
outing, 1t is enjoyed by both old and
young. Its January number opens
with poem charmingly fitted for the
occasion, entitled King Skate" fol-
lowing which is beautifully written
and handsomely illustrated story
Winning Christmas Bride" This
alone is worth the subscription price
for one year to Outing.
The January number of McCIure's
Magazine is full of "Reminiscences If
famous men and women, sandwiched
with well written pen sketches of his
torical productions. This is one of the
few magazines which delvc into the his
tory of the more notable events of the
past, thus affording its readers a valu-
able review of something not found in
other publications of similar character.
1t is. in fact an encyclopedia in that it
dwells more particularly upon subjects
that call for thought and careful study,
giving facts and figures which to OBJ
tain takes time and money. Nearly
every article is appropriately illustrat-
ed, thus giving the reader an oppor-
tunity to view the panorama of inter.
csting points as he passes along.

Irrigation I'm Utah.

The success of the work of reclaim
ing arid lands in Utah by extensive
irrigation systems is attracting to that
territory many of the immigrants from
central and western Kansas, who have
been forced to look elsewhere for homes
because of the failure of their crops,
says the New York Evening Post. A
colony of more than hundred Kansas
and Nebraska farmers have within a
few days settled in Willard county.
in the western part of the territory,
where they have purchased for a COR
poration 10000 acres that are under
irrigation. The remainder of the
land in that locality that is under the
water system is yet in possession of
the government, and is open to entry,
perpetual water rights being fur
nished at $40 per acre. The
reclamation of this land was begun
in 1891, s25o,o0o being expended
in the construction of an irrigation sys-
tenn. The reservoir covers an area of
1872. Is acres. The waters from this
lake are distributed through two large
canals, thirfy-eight feet in width, and
S<<AA ing l6SL Oh wafer,
with over fifty miles of branch canals
and laterals. In the center of the
county company is constructing
canal system that will reclaim Is, 900
acres In the southwest part another
company is preparing to furnish water
for 100000 acres. When the present
projects for supplying water are COM
pleted Willard county VIII have re,
claimed 350. 900 acres that have hitler
to been considered worthless save for
grazing purposes. The same thing is
being accomplished in othercounties of
the territory. In Westwater valley

reclaimed, and in the Bear River val

yerted Into prosperous homes.

Flax Culture In Eurone.

Our principal supply of the raw ma
terial, says Chambers Journal is inn
ported from Russia. where the plant
has long been, and still is cultivated
more extensively than in any other
country in the world; but there the
culture of the crop and preparation of
the fiber receive less care and atten-
ton than in any other producing
country. This neglect may be &C
counted for by the immense tracts
under crop and also by much thinner
sowing than is practiced in other coun-
tries in order to give the plant greater
strength and more numerous branches,
to prevent it being laid during the vio-
lent thunder storms that prevail about
the time it is in flower. The result of
this treatment, however, is coarse
fiber and also a very much inferior
yield to that grown thicker and under
more favorable circumstances of soil
and attention in its early stages. Ger
many, Austria and France will follow
Russia as flax producing countries, and
in each of these an average area of
over two hundred thousand acres is
kept under this crop In Holland fax
is grown principally for the seed, and
the planting and growth of the crop,
as well as the time for pulling, is regu-
lated for this purpose. By properly
maturing the seed the quality of the
fiber is injured and renders the subse-
quent process more difficult; but the
Dutch farmers are amply remunerated
by the high price obtained for the
seed, which has for agricultural pur-
poses world wide fame, and is chiefly
sown in Britain, although Riga seed is
also Used and preferred by some grow
ers as being more hardy. 1t is Bel
GUM, however, to which we must turn
to see fax in the highest state of cult
walton, where nothing is neglected
that can in any measure improve the
quantity, and more especially OF the
quality of the crop. Here proper ro-
tation of the crops, superior tillage
and liberal manuring of the land are
attended to in a manner not seen else
where, and to this the careful, plod-
ding Belgian farmers owe their sue
cess in raising other crops as well as
fax, and which has earned for them
the reputation they enjoy of being
the most successful agriculturists in
the world.

sunnower on

John Quimble, secretary of the Ma
tional Grange, writes thus of the sum
flower as producer of oil: The dis
covery of sunfiower oil as food was
an accident. 1t being recommended
to Russian farmer to prevent sick
ness; he tested its remedial values and
then began to use it as food to his
family and cake to his stock So pop
ular for oil and food has the sunhower
industry of Russia become, that in
1882 there were 367. $50 acres in Guilt
walton; in 1867, 704 ,496 acres. Seed
is of the large and small varities, the
latter used for oil, the former eaten
the same as peanuts. A Russian farmer
gives the yield of seeds at 1,45O to 1000
pounds per acre.
An American chemist, living in st.
Petersburg in 1868, made a compound
lard, taking sunf1ower oil as the base,
which was pronounced superior to
hogs lard in every respect for do
nestle purposes. Some of this COM
pound was sent to food exposition
IN Holland, and took the first prize as
pure refined hogs lard. He then pro-
duced, from the same oil, oleomargar-
Inc, which also took a premium as
creamery butter. From the residuum
OF the oil he manufactured fine wash
ing and toilet soaps, which are stan
dard brands in Europe and South
America. Druggists use the refined
oils in preparing liniments, salves and
hair lotions. When properly treated,
1T is used on the most delicate machin-
! cry as a lubricator.
sUNFLOwER OIL CAKE.
The annual output of all the sum
flower oil mills in value is estimated
at 81, 10000 for the oil only Oil cake
is put at 100000. The oil cake is
largely consumed in Russia, Germany,
England, Sweden, Denmark and Hol-
land, as feed for cattle. The stock
raisers and farmers of these countries
regard the oil cake as the best food to
be obtained for cattle. They claim for
1t superiority over hemp or rape seed
/ for producing flesh on beef cattle, and
equally as good for increasing the sup
ply of milk in mich cows. A German
! farmer reports that he increased the
flesh on an OK three pounds per day by
| 1eeulHR on sun mower OIL cake IheSc
people also hold it in high esteem as a
horse feed. They say it produces
flesh and gives the hair lively, slick
appearance. The dried cups are fed
to sheep, and the faulty seeds are used
as feed for barnyard fowls. In many
sections where wood is scarce the
stalks and shells are used as fuel,
which answers as a good substitute.
I The ash from the sunhower contains
large per cent of potassium. Expert
ments have proven that 1000 pounds
of dried stalks yield 81 pounds of ash
and from 1000 pounds of ash $50
pounds of the best potassium is OBJ
tanned. According to the analysis of
chemists, the ash of the sunfiower
contains about 80 per cent of potas-
| SUM, and it is also claimed by these
scientists that if the soil is very rich,
the plant will take up so per cent of
| potassium. The ashes are sold to soap
makers. From the fiber of the stalk
! is manufactured the finest varieties of
writing paper, which bear a close re-
semblancc in color and texture to
