CoL Bartram has Just re ceived a letter from Thomas Barbour, resident manager of fibres, Ltd.. of Belfast. Ireland. In which Mr. Barbour particu larly commends the quality of Oregon flax and aays that It Is as good or superior to Medlnm Courtrai which la one of the fin est trades of European flax. The United States now Im ports a great deal of flax both seed and fiber so that a future market for the Oregon crop la assuTed. Sinee growers bays rer allied orer fit an jicre gross from the flax crop they are n- couraged to Increase the acre age and the tonnage of flax in , Oregon will undoubtedly Increase materially during , the next three years, according - to CoL Bartram.
