m secure a much larger acreage of
flaxseed in the state than ever be­
fore.
In order to do this, we are guar­
anteeing the farmers 98c per bushel
of 56 lbs. f, o, b. Portland, for good,
merchantable flaxseed, pure basis:
by pure basis we mean pure seed,
and not dirt and other foreign seeds.
On arrival in Portland it will be
weighed and tested by disinterested
parties, and returns, made the same
day on the above basis.',
For the information of tho farm­
ers we would say that the freight
rate* to Portland from common
points in the Willamette valley is
12) cents per 100 lbs., or equivalent
to 7c per bushel, and this will leave
the farmer a guaranteed price of 91c
per bushel tor his seed.
Further than this, if the farmer
does not want to sell his seed at
once, we will allow him to hold it
until Dec. 1st. 1898, and if the price
of seed is higher than the guaran­
teed price, we will pay him the
market price on the day of delivery.
Remembej, you are guaranteed 98c.
per bushel of 56 lbs., pure basis, f. o.
b< Portland, and if the price goes
higher than that, we will pay you
the difference.
Remember also,
that when you accept a price at any
time prior to the 1st of Dec. 1898,
your seed |s sold at; that price, no
matter where the market goes after
yon have accepted; but yoqfare al­
ways sure of 98c. per bushel f. o. b.
Portland.
We would be pleased to hear from
the farmers on this question, and
any information we can give, will
be cheerfully given. .
You can direct all inquiries to the
undersigned, but would say that
Mr. R. Shelton will act as our Rep­
resentative in your- locality, who
will make contracts with those who
may wisn to contract.
Would say further, that we will
loan the farmer sowing seed, if he
needs any, on a very reasonable
plan, which he may learn by ad­
dressing the undersigned.
