PRODUCE IRE FLAK
Fortland, Ore., Nov. 10, (Special)
One of the industries in Oregon
which has an opportunity to make
a special growth at this time, owing
to war conditions in Europe, is the
flax industry. Dr. E. A. Pierce,
chairman of the Oregon flax com
mittee, has recently written to the
promotion department of the Port
land Commercial Club inviting its
participation in this movement. H
calls attention to the fact that the
known flax area of the world is com
paratively small; that under present
conditions it is unlikely that any con
siderable amount of flax will be
raised in Belgium, Ireland or Russia
and that it will devolve upon the Uni
ted States to furnish the greater part
of the fiber needed within the next
few years. It is well known that the
Willamette valley and other parts of
Oregon can produce flax fiber equal
to the very best European product
and he believes that this is Oregon's
opportunity to attract the attenion
of the world by hr flax production
In the vicinity of Salem it has been
demonstrated that one acre of flax
will produce from 500 to 600 pounds
of clean fiber which at present prices
would make this crop as profitable
as anything the farmers can raise
Within the last few days steps
have been taken to build an electric
line between Astoria and Seaside. It
is believed that the necessary right
of way can be secured practically
without cost and that work oi the
line will be commenced within a
short time.

able increase in the out-put of fruits

some means of taking care of the
surplus has become imperative.

The milk condensery at Newberg
