The Flax Crop

The growing of this crop does not offer
any. greater output than can be made
with others with much less trouble than is
consequent upon Its cultivation and the
preparation necessary to its marketing
says writer in the Boston Transcript
RMS latter consists of processes so dis
tasteful to the American farmer that great
er Inducements than any yet offered him
will be necessary to his undertaking 1t as
e business: And even the Irish farmer has
pecome p r. dissatisfied with the returns

quarter Of the acreage given to it's culti-
walton previously, and the Irish manufac-

the world would have to look to Russia for

Is the standard acknowledged by users Of

manufactures of linen imported, our seed
crop is ten times greater in value than all
our linen imported other than woven fab

that the production of flaxseed in Dakota

and leaves the stalks in the field.
Grown for fiber, the seeds must be sown
from two to four bushels to the acre in

instance, and this In land that has to be

Wheat Prospects
According to Bradstreet's, rather less
bearishness Is noted in the wheat market at
present, the outcome apparently OF the par
ing down of estimates of yield In this coun-
try, but also in some measure due to the ex-
pectation by the trade, both at home ana
abroad, that the liberal yields this year IN
most countries, some authorities placing
the possible worlds crop as about equal TO
the crop of 1894, which holds the record Tor
size, will. owing to the heavily reduced
visible and invisible stocks, be met by an
equally liberal demand. The price of cash
wheat at present and the generally salts
factory price offered for future deliveries
form the best proof that the wheat trade
has to some degree emerged from the PIT OF
depression into which it was cast by the
Letter collapse. Features OF the week nave
been the issuance of some private crop re-
ports pointing to a heavy scaling down of
early exuberant estimates. One such esti-
mate gives the probable American crop a
SIS, 900 900 bushels, 100 900, 900 bushels being
deducted for damage by rust. drought and
insects. Farmers reserves are given as
$4,000 900 bushels, against IS, 900 bushels
last year, and the supply available for ex-
port and reserve is placed at 1926 900 GOO BUSH
els making 1t possible to export as much
wheat and flour this season as last and
leave a surplus at the end of the year of at
lest 110.000,0 900 bushels. or more than double
that carried over or July l.
Foreign estimates of the ultimate yield
and of the outcome of growing crops, as
above intimated, point, says the same au-
thority. to worlds crop in the neighbor
hood of 2544,O0O 900 bushels, 800, 900, 600 BUSH
els in excess Of last year, but re-
serves are placed at 56,OOOO0O bush
els smaller than last years narrow carried
over supplies. which were the smallest in
five years. This, too, is an estimate based
upon crops still growing and liable to many
vicissitudes. Estimated consumptive re-
Quirements for 1895 leave little more of
worlds reserve than was held July l, and
the conclusion Is drawn that, given pres
emit estimates of yield and demand, there
exists little reason for holders of wheat
sacrificing their product. In other words,
while there will be enough wheat to go
around, it is unlikely to go at much lower
prices than those now ruling, which, it is
admitted, are fairly satisfactory to Amer
lean growers,

When The Mistress Is LADY "

In the May LADIES' Home Jouan-
al, Edward w. Box notes that "the
college year now nearing its close
has significant Importance in the
fact that during it the higher educa-
ton of the young woman has shown
strong domestic trend. This has
been true of nearly all the important
women'scolleges throughout leland.
1t is true that the field has only been
entered. But the beginning has been
made, and the domestic course has
proven, in every instance heard from
the most popular innovation of re-
cent years. There is only
one true solution of the servant girl
problem, and it must be shared, part
and part each; by the servant and
mistress. Before we can haveintel-
ligent service in our homes we must
have domestic training-schools.
Here and there in our country these
schools are springing up, and they
will multiply fast when their neces-
sity and results are better under
stood and seen. Well-equipped
training-schools will produce we'll
equipped service, and domestic SER
vice will, through their influence,
become an art and a profession.
But while the servant is
undergoing her domestic training, it
is equally necessary that the mistress
should become better acquainted
with the domestic arts so that she
may intelligently direct, where the
other intelligently works. These
two must 60 together: the one with
out the other is not enough. If the
girl Of to-day expects, when she lisa
wife, that her servant shall do her
work in competent manner, she as
the mistress, must be competent to
direct. Stemustherself understand
