For all the world knows the fiasco of that alleged "rev-

author and other democratic leaders prophesied for it, there

From Cotton to Flax j
ITlHE United SUtes department of agriculture is preparing
X a great exhibition for the national cotton snow at .Mem

fiber and seed-
Covering literally hundreds of manufactured commodi
ties.
" A showing will be made of the way in which cotton en
ters the manufacture of motor cars ; approximately o pounua
of cotton on the average is used in each car, in the making of
tires, seat cushons and covers, tops and otfter parts.
Another part of the exhibit will show new fabrics in
dress designs and products of cotton linters such as paints,
mattresses, felting cellulose, explosives, etc.
I All department representatives will be arrayed in cotton
clothing, from cotton hats to canvas snoes. it is to De me
most inclusive exhibition of the cotton growing and manufac

This is interesting to the people of the Salem district,

flax, we are to become active competitors of the growers of
cotton and the manufacturers of articles made from cotton
fiber and seed. The cotton linters correspond with our spin

With J. W. S. seed, we can produce here five to six or
more times the amount of flax fiber to the acre that is the

There is scarcely any article of cotton manufacture that
cannot be made from flax fiber; and of higher value longer
in durability, is superior in wearability and higher in
strength.
