ABOUT FLAX.

William j. Robinson, a fax and
linen expert, has taken up with Sem
ator Chamberlain the subject of
growing fax in Oregon. He ex-
presses the belief that, by a new
process, the production of fax would
add enormously to Oregon's agricul
tural wealth. He submits to Senator
Chamberlain sample of fax fibre,
and some data to prove how large
are the opportunities which open to
the Oregon farmers.
He states that the fibre referred to
is worth $400 a ton, plus $50 duty
imposed on 1t.
"In 1908 about 70,000,OOO gall
Ions of linseed oil were made in
America out of American-grown fax
seed; and in the same year 4,000,-
900 acres were planted and S,000,-
000 tons of fax fibre was produced.
Practically all the fibre was burned
in the fields. Estimating it very low
the destroyed fibre is worth $780,
100000 every year"
Robinson believes that by the de-
velopment of the new method flax
fibre raised in this country will be
available for use in making good
linens, and that Oregon may as well
as not have an important part in the
industry.
1t is known at the department Of
agriculture that fax is a very prof.
liable crop. even when grown only
for the seed, when the Abre is de-
stroyed. If, then, the fibre is used
in manufacture of linen, the value
of the fax crop will be enhanced to
make it worth while for oregon and
other farmers to raise fax on large
areas.

Cunning Dr. Crippen.

The cunning of DR.. Crippen may
save his neck. The crime of which
he is charged with committing was so
skilfully executed that he has at least
succeeded in making the evidence
against him circumstantial. The re-
ports of his trial Show that the body
supposed to be that of Mrs. Crippen
was so treated after the murder that
it was impossible to determine the sex
of the remains, and it is made plain
that such darkness was produced not
by accident, but by prem ditation. The
facts surrounding this revolving case
are such that public opinion is uni
formly against the innocence of DIR.
Crippen and in this country there
would probably be little trouble in
convicting him on the strong circum-
stantial evidence that has been pro-
cured against him. How the courts
in England will view the case is hard
to determine. but however the trial re-
Suits the accused man will have nc
cause to say that he has not been ably
defended Should DIR. Crippen testi-
fly in this case it would be. probably
a difficult matter for him to expla n
just why he left England in Disguise

The Woman Farmer.

Maude Radford Warren, discussing
the methods and prospects of the
new woman in the pursuit of agricul-
tural science. has this to say: Plenty
of women fail in farming because they
have taken it up either too hastily or
with too little capital, or because they
have already worn themselves out at
some other vocation and have not the
strength for the hard work of the
farm
The work of the farm is hard And
perhaps the hardest part Of it falls to
the lot of the accomplishing woman
who drudges in the kitchen, looks aft
err the poultry cleans the house, mends
the clothing, coddles the children. and
in some localities, does the milking.
If, in addition to all this, the woman
farmer" should find time and inclina-
ton to ploW two acres a day and
weed the cornfield after she has picked
the beans and rawberries, she can
manage to retain a scintilla of gem
tleness, she is marvel of woman
hood.
The wife of a pioneer farmer is a
female marytr. Yet she has given the
world some of it's noblest. sturdiest
sons She is not aware of the dull mo-
notony of her life. All the universe
is centered in the farm. And she is it's
brilliant sun.-Philadelphia Press.

81 loaf and invite my soul" sang
Walt Whitman in one of his ''baraba-
ric yawps'' that has sounded cover
the roofs of the world And it is no
doubt the best, profoundest, and high
est thing ever said or sung about loaf
ing.
The soul-if we may be so fortunate
as to have one. in the real and, high
significance of the word-will hardly
come to our mundane aid. no matter
how often we may invite it, unless we
loaf We do not, in our ordinary bus
mess of living, give it a chance to visit
us. Like the virtues and arts, it de-
mands a large leisure and far hori-
IONS. That is why the poets and think
ers possess soul" and We ordinary
mortals do not. Our life is too mar
row, too "cabined, crlbbed, confined
Soul escapes or shuns us while we
grope in our hudded and cluttered ex-
istence. We must loaf and invite
it,.
Loafing is good for use, now and then.
AS a habit it is very bad; but even a
good custom as Tennyson assures
US, would corrupt the world were it
not for wholesome change and variety.
And an occasional loaf whether vol
untary or enforced, may be salutary.

Judge BaIdwn's Campaign Contribu
ffoy

1t is announced that Judge Baldwin's
contribution to the democratic cam
paign fund will be $4,000, no more, no
less. It ought not to cost man that,
which is half the salary he would re-
ceive for the two years, to be elected
governor. But there are legitima tie
expenses which somebody must pay.
Theoretically, all the expenses which
the candidate should be asked to pay
ought to he incidental expense, and
that ought to be very slight. But
that is the ideal, and we must ap-
proach the ideal gradually, at least
until we can get a more effective cor
rupt practices law. Meanwhile, the
limit which Judge Baldwin sets is at
once sensible and commendable. There
is no reason to question that this will
be all he will expend for the election.
