Its original homo Is not known, but it Is best atlaptod to tho region nround tho Modltorranonn Soa. Flax was usod by tho prohlstorlc Lake Dwollors, and tho mumlos found In tho pyra mids and tombs of Egypt woro wrappod In strips of linen. Flax Is an annual growing from two to tnrco foot high. Tho vor loty usod for tho fibor has long slender stoms which do not bocomo branching until near tho top. The plant usually has bluo ftowors but In places tho tlowors aro whlto, When theso blossoms drop off thuy loavo small, long-Bhaped dark brown scods. Flax Is raised for seed and for tho fiber also. Characteristic? which distinguish tho flax fibor fineness, solidity and sunnlniionM. Though tho flax fiber Is longor than other flbors used In spinning, Its length Is unnecessary to spinning oocauso or mo naturo nf tho surfum of tho fiber, which Is cylindrical In snapo and nns small cracks running arojind It. Theso cracks tond to kcop tho fibor from slipping apart. Flax will grow In almost any part of tho United Slates as soil has moro to do with Kb growth than cllmato. It ncods n strong, rich soil. A hoavy, woll drnlnod soil Is prcforrod to a light sandy loam. Tho tlold must bo woll cultivated nnd kept en tirely frco from woods. Flax Boon draws nil tho strength from tho soil so n largo amount of fortllizor must bo usod. Tho seeds aro sown In tho spring If n flno fibor Is wantod tho soods aro sown vory thickly and whon In full bliiBsom tho plants aro pullod up and takon thru tho dlfforont proces ses of dressing, if a coarso fibor Is wantod tho .soods aro not so thickly sown and tho plants aro allowod to become partly matured boforo pull Ing. Whoro tho fibor Is to ho usod most of tho field work la dono by hand; but whoro sood alono is want ed ordinary mowars nnd harvesters aro usod for cutting, and thrashing. Flax Is most successfully culti vated In Ilolglum, This Is mostly duo to tho fact that thoro Is an abundanco of labor thoro, A vory flno grado of fibor Is grown In Bol glum, which Is usod In tho making of flno linen nnd lacos; notably Hrussols laco. It has boon provod that tho valuo of tho flax fibor crop In Ilolglum, for somo yoars, oxcoods tho valuo of tho land on which It Is grown. Bosldoe Rolglum, other countries producing flax for fiber are: Rus sia, Austria-Hungary, Iroland, and n small amount In tho United Statos. Most of tho flax grown In tho United Btolos Is grown for sood. folghtcon Inchos long, with tooth about ono half Inch apart. Those aro set in n block of wood placod at tho end of n long bonch on which tho operator, sits. Rotting Hi tho separation of tho fibor from tho woody part of tho Btalk. Thoro aro throo molhods usod; dow, pool and stoam. Dow rotting is usod whero a largo meadow or open Hold Is near at hand. Tho straw Is spread out In rows at tho rato of ono ton to tho aero. After it lms boon loft out nbout two wookb tho dow caiiBos tho woody articles to beconra soft on od so that It may bo freed from tho fibor. Peel rotting Is tho mothod most ty usod In Ireland whoro pools or bog holes aro used for that purpose Tho flax Is placod In Bheaves, and tho shoavos aro lowered Into tho wator so that they aro covorcd. but at tho same tlmo kept oft tho -bottom so that they will not gathor mud and olhor sodlmont. They aro loft from flvo to ton days. At tho ond of this porlod tho fiber Is ontlroly do comoscd and tho plant Is ready for scutching. For this mothod largo vats aro used. Tim flax Is put In a frnmo work and placed In tho vat. TJion enough warm water to cover tho flax Is lot In, and wjion tho flax Is covered Btoam Is turnod In until It roaches a tempernturo of 90 do grccs. It Is allowed to stand nnd ferment which takos but a fow hours In sixty hours tho stago of decom position Is reached. Tho wator, which has, bocomo gummy llko mucl lago, Is drawn off. Tho flax Is then takon out and drlod olthcr In tho open air or drying rooms. Attompts to uoparato tho fibor from tho boon without rotting havo boon unsuccessful. Aftor drying tho fiber Is bloachod, which requires from a, fow days to sovorat weoks. Tho moBt success fill bfoachlng Is dono In tho sun; but chomlcnls aro used to somo oxtont. Tho third procoss of dressing is scutching or tho freeing of tho fibor from tho woody partlclos. This Is accomplished by passing It through n sorlos of grooved rollorn which breaks tho woody partlclos tint lcavos tho fibor Intact. Tho flax Is tbon passod botwoon long knives which strlko It In tho direction of Its length, separating tho fibers but loavlng thorn Intact. This procoss Is gono through throo times boforo tho flax la ready tor market. Aftor scutching tho fiber Is then heckled, that Is, tho long thronds or "lino" aro soparated from tho short thronds of "tow". This Is dono with n stool tooth comb In tho places whoro hand labor Is usod. Hut largo factorlos havo machlnory which enn do tho work much moro . DR. J.
