The Allelnce Times says: Ivinkaid has made a good record in our nation al legislative body and we believe he will be renominated without opposi tion. This district has been served faithfully and well, and he has been the author of several important meas ures, and his experience in congress makes him more valuable. The senatorial boom of John L. Webster has been launched. John L. possesses the ability to represent the great state of Nebraska with distinc tion in the national hall of congress, but his political ambition has been swatted so often during the past doz en years that it is almost safe to bet that he will not be able to get onto the home stretch in this race. Fremont Tribune: Congressman, McCarthy, who came to Nebraska re cently, has returned to his post of duty at Washington. He is quoted as saying upon his return to the capital that he didn’t anticipate any serious opposition to his renomination. Whether this is a correct diagnosis of the situation or not, it ought to be the prevailing condition. What will it profit the people of the Third dis trict to trade horses when the one they are now working has become used to the harness and to the load, and is getting better prepared for service every day? What good reason is there for wasting the four years or six an other will need to get "city broke”— and then swap again?

All druggists SEEDING PROBLEMS 9 9« l Some Interesting and Instructive Information on an Important Western Crop. • • • By Chas. H. Thornton, Publisher Duluth Commercial Record. Owing to the low prices prevailing for flaxseed last fall there seems to be a tendencyrto out It out, and In this the writer helleves a mistake will be made. The comparatively low prices at which the last crop was marketed were not due to tho size of the crop 'Itself, but to the fact that the accum ulated reserves carried forward from the large crops of 1902 and 1903, which had been artificially held off the mar *et, were released, and did more than [anything else to depress the price. These reeerves, with the erop of 1906, amounted to tbrat 10,000,000 bushels more thamdhe country's annual con sumption, But with export sales and k i enlarged, domestic demand the en tire load has been wall absorbed, and by the time we oan harvest another crow win be pretty well eut ef the way. The world's situation on flax Is very strong, stronger than at apy time since 1901, and with nothing In sight to make It weak. Europe's principal sources ef supply, Argentine and India, are both short In their crops; Argentine with a shortage of 23 per cent compared with 1505. and with barely 60 per eent of the crop of 1904; the Indian crop Is just being harvested, and it is known that the drouth at seeding time worked mate rial damage to the crop. The final crop figures, which will be published next month, will show a great shortage compared with 1905, and this In turn was only 60 per cent of the 1904 crop. Argentine will net start shipping on another crop until next January, and India will not harvest another crop until March of 1907. * Aside from the foreign situation, the domestic outlook, of Itself, Is strong enough. Consumption Is Increasing materially every year, and last year's crop would have been barely sufficient to supply domestic demands. It will be remembered that the crop ef 1905 was exceptional In its large average yield per acre, and It does not seem possible that Its average yield can be again duplicated this year. Ths area In 1905 was much more than it would have been were it not that the spring season was so exceptionally favorable to a large area of everything. With the rapid settlement of ths far western part of North Dakota, ths large new breakings. of the pest three sr four years are no longer available for flax, and the trade will hereafter depend on the product raised from smaller fields, the twenty, forty or eighty-acre fields ef scattered farms. The writer has followed statistics on flaxseed sines it first became a prominent crop in the Northwest and is firmly of ths opinion that the ISOS fall prices for seed will be higher than they have been before in five years and much higher than at pres ent. Should an accident of any kind occur to any considerable part of this year’s American crop the world’s sta tistical situation is scute enough to bring about extravagant prices. It Is a well recognized fact that flax cannot be grown continuously on the same field owing to ths disease known as flax wilt. It can, however, be grown continuously on the same farm by so rotating the crop as to bring flax on each field but once fn seven to ten years. Flax requires a good soil, as it is not a strong feeder, and it does very well following corn or a grass crop. It is no harder on the land than is any grain crop. In fact, there is no more fertility removed by a crop of fiax than by a crop of wheat, oats or barley. Flax Is undoubtedly a valu able crop ’ as a small portion of the total grain crop raised. The average yield in money value por acre has been In the past larger for flax than for wheat. It also has the advantage of requiring a shorter time to maturo than other grain crops, thus gashing It possible to sow fins considerably later la the sprint, C*filoh t» quite eften an advantage.
