A farmer in giving his experience
in sowing wheat and flax together
says he sowed mixture of one BUSH
ell of wheat and one peck of fax seed
to the acre. The yield was q bushels
to the acre-the proportion Of fax be-
ing greater than the proportion of
seed-9 bushels of flax and IS bushels
of wheat. Another farmers expert
ence was little different. He SOW
ed a bushel and a half of seed to the
acre and got II bushels Of flax and 81
bushels of wheat. The fax should be
sowed with blue stem or some other
late variety as flax must be fully ripe
when cut. Flax holds up the wheat
and its dense shade drives out the
chintz bugs, and is much easier to
harvest and thresh with wheat than
when it is raised alone. 1t is the
easiest seed to separate from wheat.

GOLDEN sHEAF MINE.

George Fertig, of the Golden Sheaf
group OF mines, was in town last Satur-
day. In the cross-cut he is driving to
intersect that vein. He is making fair
headway. When in under the main
shaft he will have the vein at depth of
400 feet from its apex. He now has in
the bottom. Of this shaft two feet Of ore
that gives from 3 to 6 ounces in gold per
cord when treated under stamps, the
mill concentrates varying from S5 to so
per ton OF the smelters. AS the drift on
the vein is driven he will gain about one
foot in three, the mountain being quite
precipitous. The ore mined can be
trammed through the adit and dumped
at the mouth of the same much cheaper
than if hosted through shaft. With a
mill at the mouth of the adit the ore
could be dumped in front OF the stamp
batteries. The Golden Sheaf is among
the promising veins of that portion of
Vermilion district Close by are the

Wettstein on the east, the Ohio group

OUTLOOK NOT ALTOGETHER FAIR.
Early in the year, when the formation

full operation, the New York Engineer

probability that these concerns would
be likely to meet competition before long
from now concerns. In its issue OF Sep.
tember % that journal editorially says
that large amount Of money was paid
to the owners OF old plants, and it was
quite likely that much OF this would find
its way back into the trades or lines of
business with which the holders were
most familiar. This prediction is being
verified Mt the present time, especially in
the iron and steel trade. Our industrial
column has shown Lately the organiza.
tion Of number OF new companies, the
object OF which is to enter into competi-
tion-some Of them do not hesitate to
avoid it-with the combinations. The
movement is too extensive for the trusts
to manage. The buying up OF new
