!. VALLEY j: LIE GRAIN o. K.
REPORT FROM GRAND FORKS
SAYS GRAIN IS WELL ROOTED
i B AND DOING G~WELLr-BIG CROP OF

/ AND DoING~>WELL-BIG CROP OF.
FLAX. s,sss
Grand Forks, May 17.--Grain in the
valley is doing well. Those who have
examined the growing plants carefully
say they are in q most healthy condi-
ton, and that the roots are going
deeper IMAM usual from the fact that
the frost is not yet out Of tine ground,
and as a result there is plenty of
moisture for some time to come even
it there should be no further rainfalI
for a week or two. This deep roofing
is also looked upon as a good thing
from the fact that it. enables the plant
to stand much longer drought than
it would otherwise be able to do with
out serious injury. .ss #
The flax acreage will be by all odds
the largest in the history of the state
There are several reasons for this In
the first place wheat seeding, as stated
before, was completed much earlier
tnan usual, thus giving the farmers
ample time to put in all the fax they
wished. AS a result much of the land
which ordinarily have been reserved
for summer falloW will be seeded to
this cereal. In some localities, espe-
scially in the western part of the state,
"a great deal Of flax will be sown on
sod broken this spring, as experience
has proven that very good crops have
raised in this way. In the second place
the present high price of flax is one
of the chief reasons why such large
acreage of flax is being sown, the farm
5ers believing that at least 81 per bushel
will be realized next fall. IA The estab-
fishing of fax fibre, mills throughout
the valley, thus giving a market for
the flax straw, has also had its inf1u-
ence in Increasing the flax acreage.
& AS an illustration Of the amount of
flax that is being sown it might be
stated that the Minnesota & Northern
Elevator company alone has sold be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 bushels of
seed fax, which would SOW 10000 or
$4,000 ( acres, and Superintendent
Simms of that company states that a
much larger quantity could have been
sold had it been available. Mr.. Simms
as we'll as the superintendents of other
elevator companies, states that the
farmers have a veritable flax craze
and the result will be the production
Of an enormous crop Of fax this year,
even with the fairly favorable year.
Seed fax is now worth So per bushel
and extremely hard to obtain at that,
though the average price paid this
spring has been about 81 rs. The de-
mand for seed fax began early in Feb
ruary, when evidences of an early
spring first became apparent and has
kept up ever since. a The Elk Valley
Farming company alone is sowing
2, 800 acres Of flax and James Russell,
formerly division superintendent OF
the Great Northern, is sowing / 400
acres. Many of the smaller farmers
are seeding their farms to flax and
there is scarcely a farmer but what is
sowing at least a few acres Should
the present price of fax by some
chance prevail next fall and the har-
vest be a boantiful one, the dreams of
easy wealth SO often INDUCED in by
the farmers Of this section in the early
days would be fully realized.

Nicaragua La Understood to Be Opposed to
the Davis Canal Amendment Pro-
vidlng for Defenses.

Washington, March 16.-While Mic
aragua has fled no formal complaint
of the Davis amendment to the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, the feeling in pan
American circles is that that country
will interpose objection to any at
tempt on the part of the United
States to carry out its provisions in
time of war. Senior Corea, the diplo-
matte representative of Nicaragua
here, declines to discuss the Davis
amendment and how he Or his govern
ment regards it. It is known. how
ever, that he feels that Nicaragua
would be justified in refusing to grant
any concession to the United States.
This may mean, in the opinion of the
pan-American diplomats, that the
United States may seize the territory
through which the canal passes and
fortify it or take any other high
handed action on the pretext that it
is necessary for its own defense.

KANSAS NEWS OF RECENT DATE.



State Auditor Cole has prepared
a statement showing a comparison of
the tax account of the 1O5 counties of
Kansas for the year 1899 with that of
the year 1895. In it he says:
At the beginning OF 1895 the delinquent
state tax due from counties amounted to
$145,350 This amount increased during
the next year or two until on January 1,
1899, the delinquent tax amounted to $242.-
33S During the year 1898 there was paid
on this delinquency the sum of SIS, 523,
leaving a balance of SIS. S15 due at this
date In 1895 there were but "a counties
owing no delinquent tax. At this time
there are SO counties paid in full. AM
other proof of the better condition of the
state financially is found in an examina-
ton of the bond records in the state aud
itorS Office Since January 1, 1885, the
auditor has registered refunding bonds of
various municipalities. aggregating about
S., coo, 600, bearing interest at rates varying
from 81 per cent. to five per cent to re-
fund Indebtedness upon which from six
per cent. to eight per cent. interest was
being paid So eager have ben investors
to obtain the township, city and county
bonds of Kansas that very often bonds
bearing from to AZ per cent. were sold
at quite a large premium above par. In
addition to the large reduction OF debt
by decreasing the rate of interest bonds
aggregatfng 100000 have been paid out
right, and a great many municipalities
that have heretofore been burdened with
large bonded Indebtedness are now free
from all debt
