seed flax this year. Try a sufficient
amount to SOW an area large enough
from which to harvest the seed for next
years crop. BY another year You may
learn to avoid many errors which
might now arise through experience.
The method of treatment: Use for
maldehyde at the rate of one pound of
the standard strength to forty or forty
five gallons of water (the same strength
used for wheat and oats.) Spread the
seed upon tight floor or upon can
vass and sprinkle or spray, on small
amount of the liquid Ia fine spray is
BEST Shovel, hoe. or rake the grain
over rapidly. Repeat this spraying,
shoveling, hoe or raking until the sur
face Of all the seeds are Just evenly
moist, not wet enough to mat or gum,
but evenly damp. (This can be done
without mating II the grain is well
hoed or shoveled over while the solution
is slowely and evenly sprayed upon it. J
When the seeds are just evenly moinst,
cease applying the solution, but con-
tinue to shovel the grain over so as to
get it dry % soon as possible. Avoid
any excess OF moisture. IT fax seeds

coats so that they win stick together,
they will be considerably injured or
Feven killed.
1t takes less than one-haaf gallon Of
the solution to properly moisten one
bushel of fax seed.
Caution: One must treat fax with
much more care than that usually
taken in treating wheat or oats for
smut. The solution recommended is
strong enough to kill all seeds, il they
are made thoroughly wet, o. II they are
allowed TO stay quite damp for some
hours,

HOW TO TREAT FLAX SEED.
The Following is Taken From
the Bulletin Issued by the
Experiment Station of
North Dakota.

There are some difficulties connected
with treating fax which are not
encountered in handling other grains.
When first recommended the formal
dehyde treatment for wheat and also
oats, number Of farmers complained
that they injured their SEED. In so far
~ have been able toinvestigate any OF
those cases, the trouble has been due to
some defect in the manner IN which
they carried ont the work. / hope that
no farmer will undertake to treat his
fax seed until hs has read the direc-
tions here given very carefully. While
the amount Of seed to b handled over
Is much less than in the case of oats
and barley, one must do the work very
much more carefully. have only to
call attention to the fact that the more
wetting Of flax seed. unless it is quickly
dried, = injurious to its terminating
qualities. One ought, therefore, in
treating OAK to be very careful not to
use = Bit more Of the solution than ID
neos ssary to dampen the grain. II by
accident you should chance to supply
moro moisture to batch Of seed than
you ought to do, throw In some more
dry SEED at once and stir il over rapidly.
The dry seed will withdraw the exces.
sive moisture from those which ara 70
wet. and thus prevent injury TO the
latter.

to "A pause today There was some evil

had followed the rebound also resold
stocks. The tendency was emphasized
after the appearance of the bank state
ment, the strong showing being taken
advantage of to realize profits
The market was not very active at any
time, and fell into extreme dullness at
intervals. Some of the stocks which have
suffered from direct property losses in
California made wide reeoveries today.
The $1S.OO0.000 gain in cash shown by the
bank statement is practically all accounted
for the deposits of government funds
with the banks against gold imports.

Forty per cent of all the negro popu-

South Carolina have a greater colored

the mulatto population is about nine
per cent and in the latter about eleven
per cent of the negro population.
In the United States as a whole
number of mulattoes is about sixteen
