FLAX CULTURE.
Satisfactory Experiments in SoIano
County.

The fax experiments in the southern
and eastern portion of the Montezuma
hills have turned out more satisfactory
this year than were anticipated, says
the Solano Republican" On some
ranches 1t is no longer an experiment.
This Is the fourth year on several of
the ranches, and the growers have
found that the yield has increased each
year.
James Philpot of the Rio Vista dis
tr.ct is probably the most extensive
fax grower in Solano County, 225
acres of his ranch having been devoted
to this industry this year. He called
at the Republican Office last week
and the information he gave us, no
doubt, will be interesting to farmers
generally.
He had a special separator made for
his combined harvester for harvesting
his own and the crops Of flax Of
several of his 1eighbors. He has
finished fifty acres on A. Mccormack s
ranch and thirty acres on Jack Elliott's
place. the former crop averaging twelve
sacks to the acre and the latter ten
sacks to the acre. The cost of harvest
ing by the improved machinery is about
one-third more than for wheat, and the
fiaxseed sells readily In San Francisco
for 81 80 per Genital. this being the
price offered this year. The weight of
the sacks average 122 pounds each.
At present no use is made of the
straw, but this in course Of time will
also be utilized and the industry will
then become permanent and will be
more profitable.

When the stomach and bowels are wrong
what seems a mere trife, blocks the
whole system. Every part of the body
feels the effects of little constipation.
The head aches, the mouth tastes bad;
the stomach is distressed, the liver is con-
gested and torpid; you feel sluggish and
miserable and down-hearted; the energies
are completely paralyzed-all for want of
a little help to regulate the stomach and
bowels. What you want is DR.. Pierces
Pleasant Pellets. They will make you
regular and you keep SO; they act in a
comfortable natural way, not violently but
surely. They give the intestines power
to move naturally; and also tone the
stomach and liver. You don't become
slave to their use, they cure you so you
stay cured. IF druggist makes more
money on some violent purging pill he
may try to sell it to you. Don't let him.

New York City, in preparation for the

resolved to sell 100000 of 31a per

Massachusetts tried to float ST, 10000

not get bidder; less than three weeks
ago she sold them easily. The stock

Assault is made upon the banks by
the Populist organs for coming to the
relief of the Government to preserve
the reserve as if a crime had been per-
petrated. We are neither the defender
nor the champion of the banks, and
common knowledge of history suggests
that in this action the banks have done
nothing unusual. They handle the
money of the. people. Seven-tenths of
the money in the banks is that of small
owners of money. The bank policy is
to preserve the credit Of the country in
who have entrusted them with money.
Those capitalized by large money own
ers have precisely the same interest.
1t is selfish, then, in them to do what
they have done. But it is a selfishness
that we have no reason to find fault
with. If organized capital had not come
to the relief of the Government in the
dark days of the Revolution the repub-
lie would not have been established,
and to-day we would be a dependency
of Great Britain. In the war of the
Rebellion the banks very frequently
came to the aid of State governments
and enabled them to equip armies to
offer to the Federal Government for
the preservation of the Union. Boston,
Philadelphia and Chicago banks have
an enviable record for such acts. The
banks of the three first named cities
at one time in one of the darkest hours
Of that unhappy war, advanced to the
Federal Government the nice little sum
of $50, 100000 to save it's credit, and
in doing SO they injured their own SOL
vency and were forced to suspend
specie payment. STILL again, after that
critical time there came another stress
Of the Government, when its fate hung
trembling in the balance, and the
banks, though themselves crippled,
rallied in the sum of $50000,000 to the
aid of the United States. So, from the
days of Robert Morris, with his 3,000,-
coo rations and 300 hogsheads of rum
for the aid of the revolutionary Gov
ernment, down through the War of the
Rebellion and to the present, the banks
have time and time again, as in 1885,
1894 and 1895, rallied to the aid Of the
Government There is nothing strange
that they should have done so. 1t is
paralyzing to think of what might
have been had they not thus aided in
certain critical periods.

The fact is that the deplorable condi-

ton of the tariff, and as Bryan is in
favor of retaining the present rates, the
effect of his election can be foreseen.
Up to 1892 every saw in Hum
boldt County was buzzing merrily, and
an idle man was hard to find. Money
was plenty, and confidence reigned, but
alas, how soon did the market go to
pieces when our dealers were brought
into direct competition with the dealers
of British Columbia and other foreign

infant of the above facts and cannot
but attribute the existing deplorable
