LINEN MILL
CERTAIN FOR
THE VALLEY
Will Be Established WiHiin the Next Year
or Eighteen Months By the Largest
Firm in Ghent, Belgium.
Eugene Bosse, Rax Expert, Gives Some
Inside Figures Upon the Cost of Es
tablishment, and Great Profits to Be
Realized.
It enn bo stated on llrst class nil
thority tlmt it In practically certain a
llnon mill will bo established in Su
lom or this section of tlio WlUamc-tto
valley within tho next year or 18
months. Further than this tho plant
will bo financed by tho firm of Morel
'& Vorboko and other financial inter
ests of Ghent, Belgium, whoso ope
clal agent, Georgq Vorboko, nophow
of tho members of tho nbovo men
tioned firm of tho samo name, mado
a porsonul Investigation of tho possi
bilities of tho noil and climate as to
their ndnptlbillty for producing n
high grado of (lax and tho feasibility
of establishing, a llnon mill horo.
Mr. Verbelco departed on his ro
turn to llulglum nhout one month
ngo and ho oxprossed hlmsolf as being
convinced that this was tho most
promising field extnnt for tho location
of n factory and. tho development of
tho flax industry, and, although ho
declined to disclose tho exact natufo
of his report ho gave posltivo assur
nnco that it would bo In no sonso dis
couraging. It s nlHO pretty woll un
dorstood that Eugene IIosbo, who has
devoted tho past flvo years to demon
strating tho ndnptlbillty of tho cll
Hiitto and soil of tho valley to tho
culturo of tho flnoBt grade of flax
And flbro in tho world, will roprcsont
tho promoters ho fur as preliminary
Arrangements are concornpd nnd havo
general suporlutondOncy over tho
production of tho llnx and tho
jieutchlng mills, at least five In num-
lior, for tho extraction of tho flbro.
"In orilor to ostnbllsh tho llnon
manufacturing industry upon n
sound foundation nnd to malco It cer
tain of buccobb," biiIiI Mr. IIobbo, yos
tordny, in discussing tho subject, "it
will bo necessary to erect ti mill of nt
lonBt one ton of tho flbro per day ca
pacity which will bo capablo of turn
lug out .DOO yards of coarse nnd
2500 yards of modltim grade of
crash, tho quality and value of which
product will bo Increased materially
with tljo mixture of raw flax fibre.
Tho total cost of such a plant, includ
ing flvo flbro mills to pornmuontly
supply tho llnon mill, ready to opor
nto nnd with Bulllelont capital loft
to operate on will bo $157,000, nnd,
with nn addition of 130,000 tho pro
ducing capacity can bo doubled.
"There Is no mora expense nor
labor attarhed to tho cultlvntou of
II ax than there Is to wheat and farm

so badly that tho United Stntos gov
