THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND; TUESDAY, VjULY 4. 1916. 1.) FLAX FARMING MAY BECOME IMPORTANT IE Conditions Declared to Equal Bel ' grlum, Where the Best Flax Known to the World Has Been Grown; Opportunities Are Great. The following flat bulletla from the tTitl efelty of Oregon Is compiled from carefully prepared matter published In a 80 page pamph let yea front tba university press. It la lo aned by the department of commercial and In dustrial servles, school of eomnerce. of tba tuMverelty, and will be read wltb nnneual In terest by all persons at all Interested in tba cultivation of tbla farm crop now In an ex perimental stsgs la this state. Tba pamphlet la the result of a year'a lirv.es tlgstlon of tho Industry thronabont the world by the dep rtmsnt. snd Is s most comprehen sive tnily of tbe subject, wblch wss made at the siierlsl request of the flax committee of the Portland Chamber of Conmtrrt, snd In cooperation whb tba departments of state and commerce of tbe national govarncnaat. Advantages Made Clear. The bulletin makes very evident the su perior sdrsntages of western Oregon for both tbe growing aad manufacturing of flax of tbe very highest grade, quoting authorities to show that this section Is equal to tba fa moos Conr trsl district of Belgium, whers the best flat known t tbe world bss been grown. The three chief requisites so4l, water and atmos pheric conditions all are said to be pft eetsed by Oregon lb Just the right combination and with lust the rlelit elements snd tvudl- tkwis. After dealing with the naturally favor able conditions found here, the bulletin recites tbe Various experiments made by the state nt Salem, tbe one under way at Eugene, and varl pua private trials that bsve been msde. and their results. It then gives s very brief re sume of tbe requisite soil preparstlnn. planting and harvesting methods, calling attention to tbe government bulletins that go Into tlieae questions exhaustlrely . Economic Fsaruras DUcusssd. A very Interesting snd Important chapter la that Leaded: "Coats. Production. Markets, Prices. Profits. Etc. ," In which the ronoiula features of tbe ludustry sre discussed, with aapeclal reference to Oregon, in fact, through out tbe viewpoint la that of the Oregon fanner and what flax growing and manufacture means or ma j mean to him. J. Frederick Thorne, who had direct charge of tbe work for II. B. Miller, director of the school of commerce, ststes that the material , published Is but a fraction of the data and In formation gstbered from all psrts of the world tbit tbe facts secured were so many that only tbnaa of particular Interest to Oregon hare been printed, the others being kept on file at the university for the benefit of any one who may desire greater detail or Informa tion of a wider scope.

The New York Price- Ocrrent, commenting on ths spirited rise in prices of beans and peas, explains ths causes which bare impelled tbe Increase aa follows: Advances hava come along very rapidly again thta wsek, snd prices have touched tba highest point reached in many years; and It la cot at all certain that the rise la valuea may Cot continue for awhile longer. Tbe causes that have led to tbe present acute situation are primarily tbe unusual export demand. All of tho west Indies and parts or Sooth America that usually draw their supplies from Europe bars had to come here lor stock; tens of thou sanda ot bags have gono to Bergen, Norway, several porta In Oreat Britain and France. and between oo.ooo and 00,000 bushels went ta Greece. Besides this, tbe Belgian relief ships that went to Rotterdam carried very closa to 1.000,000 pounds of beans, not including the steamer that is just clearing with 1,280,000 pounds, and there are further engagements on s steamer to sail two weeks hence or approx Imately 4.8O0.OUO pounds. Canada bought heavily at primary points, which cleared tite western markets and turned a good deal of trade here. Including the canners, same of wbom were evidently short of stock. Since September 1 we have exported from the port of New YoA 383,108 bags. The market baa not been affected by any prospect of trouble with Mexico. The very unfavorable conditions for tbe new crop In this state and Michigan have, however, had some influence. Prices have climbed upward so rapidly this wsek that it bas been difficult to give quotations with sny degree of certainty. Trading Held in By New War Issues New York, July 4. (C. P.) Tbe New York Evening Sun's financial review today said: Aside from the ttw specialties, wben stocks displayed any animation at all today, they moved through a circle of narrow diameter. The Mexican altuajlon. with all its uncertain ties, tbe new emergency war revenue me a an re and tba pra-boliday Influences formed a com bination well calculated to hold tbe trading in restraint, end this was further accentuated by tba very meager attendance of brokers on the floor of tbe exchange and of customers in tbe offices. Heaviness In munition stocks and Industrial specialties, like. Crucible SteeL Baldwin Loco motive, Industrial Alcohol, Stndebaker corpor ation and Maxwell Motors, was the feature of an otherwise dull and uninteresting, opening. As the session progressed, railway shares, un der the leadership of L'alon Pacific and South ern Hallway, developed a better tone, while tba manltlona stocks con tinned under pres- nre Ksrlv losses ween luit f f en44 nA in the latec trading a firmer tendency developed, The rally wa particularly marked in tbe t. sues, which bsd been subjected to pressors at the outset and clearly suggested abort covering M ta InpaUloe; farce.

AMERICANS SHORTEN LINES IN MEXICO FOR POLICE PATROL WORK Washington, July 4 (U. P.) Tho American punitive expedition sent into Mexico to capture or kill Villa or to shatter hia bands is being withdrawn for police duty close to the border. This was the consensus of opinion here today. General Pershing contin ues concentrating his forces, shorten ing his lines and approaching closer to the international boundary. No one here believes the punitive ex pedition will be taken entirely out of Mexico. This sone of operation is ex pected to extend along the northern boundary of the republic and for a distance satisfactory both to tbe de facto government and the United States. Patrol to Bo Xtedistribnted. New distribution of the border patrol, announced by the war depart ment yesterday indicates Presldem Wilson has decided on a program of tnorough protection against further raids by scattered bands which have not yet been dispersed. At the same time dispatch to the border and the maintenance there of large militia forcea will place the country in a po sition for offensive movements shou'id the Mexican trouble become unman ageable through diplomatic channels. It now seems inevitable that the different state militia organizations will be kept on the border for several months at least.
