"I reached Portland a day or two ago, to spend, the summer in Oregon. I spent the spring months. in Redondo, JJan ? Francisco and Palo Alto. I think maybe I have J a few items of interest for your book page, especially that Sunset has changed management, and will be brought out under a new plan. I had a nice visit! with Mr. Josetfa Henry Jackson,; who is now managing editor. He savs they mean to make ft a more pop ular magazine, of general interest, presenting the new west rather than the old, getting rid of the broncho-busting atmosphere, and taking on the atmosphere of real accomplishment,' often ; from a more personal angle. - They will use good western fiction, articles and verse, and Mr. Jackson will greatly appreciate, for bis news paper as well as magazine uses, items of, interest about Oregon writers news of forthcoming books, etc. He has a broad spirit oT inclusivenesS, and Wishes to present the northwest writers, and the northwest in literature. He will be glad to hear from our writers, with news or material. "My own newest book, 'Singing in the Rain,' is selling, splendid in California, as well as j over the rest of .the country, ft has been reviewed-and read over the radios of many states, the home econo mics departments of newspapers having very gnerally taken it on for reading to their audiences. In N6w York city It. is being read over the radio by Mrs. Ida Bailey Allen, authority on home econo mic matter's. In Los Angeles it was read over the radio by the Express and the Illustrated News. In San Francisco it will be read this summer by Mr. Jackson's de partment, j ' "GDod Housekeeping' for July carries my essay, Tb0 Highest Criticism,' and uses aj beautiful scenic photograph, with credit to Portland, Oregon, for illustration. "I am now at work dn another book, which will be a serial next fall and winter, and appear in book form in the spring.

Faganj of The Dalles have been visiting' at the home of F. E. Fagan in! Wood-bUrn. At The Theatres Making a Trial Run on the Bartosz Plac Near the Riverside; Drive Those who keefc track of the development of the flax industry in the Salem district will remem ber that Joe Bartdsz.1 then of the j Turner district and now on the! Riverside dtrve about three miles above Salem, invented a flax pul ler about five years ago. Four yers agoj, It had been seemingly brought to Buch - per fection that it gave promise of solving the fl&x pulling problems of this district, which were thea beginning to loom up. But, while the ; Bartosz puller pulled the flax and did a clean job of it, there was difficulty in get ting it to bind and deliver the bundles. Then came a Canadian puller, that year, and 12 of them the next year, and two more of them this year. They have alt j been performing fairly well this year. Seven of these Canadian pullers belong to growers now, six of them to the; state, and two of them to the Oregon Linen Mills Inc. . Early in ine game, Mr. Bartosz took into partnership H. O. Ten ney of Portland, and they have worked" steadily and faithfully trying to perfect their machine, so it would both pull the flax and deliver it in suitable; bundles. They have been trying out their machine on the ! Bartosz farm south of Salem. The writer saw it work yesterday afternoon. With a poor stand of flax, on rough ground full of clods, it did clean pulling, and delivered a fair bundle. Have Over 200 Acres Mr. Tenney has ' over 200 acres of flax on the Columbia river, in Columbia county, hear Clatskanle. It is contracted to the state. It has made a good growth;-is fine flax. But flax is later there than in the Willamette valley, and this tract will be ready to pull in- a week or two. Mr. i Tenney and Mr. Bartosz have I completed tw6 of their pulling machines. They are built on a Peering . binder. There are rubber rollers where the sickle would be" Ih grain cutting. (The Canadian puller pulls the flax between leather belts; the would take a mechanic to explain the tHff erence. Mr. Tenney expects to pull his .200 acres of flax in Columbia ; county- with, these two Bartosz patters. If this cannot be done, however, he has the right to call on the state for the use of their Canadian pullers. The contract with the state calls for the threshing of the flax on the Columbia county farm, the seed becoming the property of the state. The threshed and bound straw"' is to be shipped to Salem and -delivered to the penitentiary. It will likely be brought on barges, up the Columbia and Wil lamette rivers. The time has come in the de velopment of the flax industry here when machine pulling is ab solutely necessary to its progress. All hand pulling is unthinkable. One Canadian puller with a team or tractor and tWo men is capable of doing the work of 40 to 80 hand pullers (from daylight to dark), and doing a cleaner, better job than any hand pullers can do. It takes eight hand pullers to pull an acre of flax in a day and they must be good pullers, with iron backs, at that. With perhaps 5000 acres of flax in prospect next year, and 10,000 acres soon, and 50,000 to 100.000 acres before many years, hand pulling cannot be considered es pecially as hand pulling is two to three or four or five times as ex pensive as machine pulling de pending partly on the mechanical knowledge and organizing ability of the men handling the machines, or the hand pullers. And partly on the condition of the crop, the character of the soil, the lay of the land,. and the size of the fields.
