there are lOO.OoO acres of land

tlenlarly f ayorable because of
the cool weather , and abundant
' r- moisture. .
f Oregon Is building a sure
" foundation for the flax Industry
and progressing slowly but aure
ly by fradnally working out the
problems of the industry.
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.
