Value of Newspaper Reccgnized
By Big Business Concerns
The secretary of a largo building
and loan association recommends
newspaperadvertising as the most
effective an 1 economical means o
reaching the public and urges the
a-oociations throughout the United
States to create a fund of $1,0 0,-
(XX) for 6uch a campaigns.
As. Mr. Anderson kuows, it has
t een fully d iu .cnstiated that the
newspaper stands by itself as o
e a tie r of messages to t h : greatest
possible number el people. Il is
the only medium that is sure to
reach the citizens of a community
and he read. This fact is being
more fully app eciated tveryday.
Country weeklies are tbe grest-

Oregon tlax is now being shipped
'o Ireland. With 209 bales ot tlax
spinning tow clearing for Dublin,
Ireland, last Saturlay aboard the
steamer Steel Scientist, the total
exports ot this commodity have
reached a total of 247,736 pounds
with a value in excess of $28,000.
Since tbe the movement started
in August of this year, four parcels
have been shipped to Ireland from
the state tlax plant at Salem. Early
in the year samples were forward­
ed to Belfast fur exam ination and
testing purposes, and the quality
of the tow proluced in this terri­
tory has proven equal to the best
grown in other countries.
Seed for the first tlax grown in
the Willamette valley was brought
in over the Old Oregon Trail in the
early forties and at th at time those
interested in tbe growing of the
tlax found that a very good fibre
could he produced from tbe straw
ven with etude tools th at were
then available. Time has provt n
that the cool moist climate to be
found iu Oregon particularly west
•if the Cascades, is id til for the
cultivation of flat, and the long,
mil, moist glowing season with a
dry period fot h irvest. produces an
ex client li »te llix.
Durn g the year 1927, approxi­
mately 4,000 acres of land was de-
votid to tlie cultivation of llax, be­
ing approximately double the
amount seeded to flax dining pre­
vious years. Tbe iucrease is large»
iy due to the operation of the stale
dux plant at Salem, being located
near the i e i t r of the llax pro hie­
ing area of the Willamette valley,
