PULLIKG Ml
It Is-the 'Invention of a Bel
gian, and Qrders Have
Been Received
The whole flax industry is in
terested In any new machinery
that will cut the cost of pulling the
crop and of scutching the fiber.
All inventions are of interest to
Salem and the country around, as
they may perhaps have the new
idea that is wanted. '
M. Maurice Soenens has been
working on his machine for a
number of years. He has exhibit
ed the machine at various fairs
and has been awarded several
prizes for his machine. The newly
designed 1926 model of the ma
chine is described In a circular re
ceived by the Turner Flax Fiber
company which is now in the pos
session of the Miles Linen com
pany. The pamphlet is in French
and Flemish, but the following is
a fair translation:
"This .machine is a perfected
model on the previous machines
invented by M. Maurice Soenens.
It performs two functions. The
lifting apparatus lifts all fallen
straw and lands it into the puller,
which, havtng pu'.ieu the flax,
throws it clear behind the ma
ebipeThe machine does not have
a binder 'attachment, but one
could be added. ' At present the
bundles, are tied by hand.
"The chief points in favor of the
machine, are;
.'l. The entire weight of the
machine is only 1300 pounds.
"2. The mechanical upkeep is
very slight.
"3. The machine can be taken
apart and s"et up again by an un
skilled person.
"4. The machine does the work
of 3 5 hand pullers.
"5. The pulling is done better
than by hand.
"6. The mechanism is very sim
ple and the wear. and tear is very
slight.
"7. Pulls flax on any length
from 12 to 48 inches.
"8. The flax when pulled is not
tossed, but dropped behind in
neat bunches.
"9. The machine can be worked
iu wet weather.
"10. It pulls an average mini
mum of five acres a day.
"The price of the machine is
$675, and could be delivered to
the United States for about $1,
000. Thi8 -Is an attractive point,
as it comes nearer the place where
the average farmer can afford to
own his own machine and so get
his pulling done when it needs to
be done, and not have to wait for
a machine to come in to do his
work. The machine is pulled by
i i -r ..it
two horsesthley supplying aU the
power needed j - v - : " -
"The great firm of Viewers, ttd.
of Great Britain, baa the-patent
rights - and Its plant at Bury St.
Edmunds Is imanutaeturing .the
machine, orders for which, have
already been 'received, for deliv
ery this-year;"j "
WEATHER BRINGS
CODLING WIDTHS

ings Issued ,
Codling moths In . the Willam
ette valley were brought out in
great numbers by the hot days
last week, says Don C. Mote, en
tomologist of i the experiment sta
tion. The moths have been em
erging scatteringly since April 15.
Fully two-thitds of the moths are
now flying. Warm nights are con
ducive to egg-laying. The eggs
w ill hatch in eight to 16 days, de
pending on the temperature.
The first cover spray should be
on the apples . and pears before the
worms hatch iand enter the, fruit.
Growers mayicombine this codling
moth spray with their, regular 15
day Jime-sulphur scab spray. ;
The weather at this date is un
favorable fori egg deposition and
may. continue: unfavorable-for sev
