Approximately 1,400,000 tons of flax
straw are burned or permitted to go to
' waste each vear on Americnn farms.
At the snme'time the country is r.nnu
ally importing largo quantities of flnx
waste from foreign countries for paper
ami board manufacture. The ineonsin
tency of this situation has lead special
ists of tho department to investigate
the feasibility of using homegrown
straw in tho paper and fibre-board in-
' dustry.
' Tho results of this investigation have

for the seed from which linseed oil is
manufactured. The annual crop now
nmounts to about 20,(100,000 bushels of
seed and is valued at approximately
$3.1.000,000.
The crop also yields . approximately
1,000,000 tons of straw, but of this only
about 200,000 tons am put to any pro
fitnblo use. The utilization of the re
maining 1,400,000 tons, Bays tho bulle
tin, would bo of iinmenso economic im
portance, since its paper-producing pos
sibilities nrc equal to the annual pro
duction of wrapping paper and more
than double the annual production of
writing paper in tho United States. lis
sale, it is estimated, would represent an
added revenue to the formers of about
5,000,000 annunlly. This additional
profit would bo a very powerful factor
in maintaining the flax crop in our ag
ricultural system and would probably
result In the establishment of paper-
manufacturing industries in sections
where there are none nt present. It
would also aid in making our paper In
dustry more Independent of foreign raw
pnper-making materials and would pro
duce 11 keener realization of the Intent
value of some of our enormous crop
wastes.
Flax in this country has always been advantageous method of assembling the
country, chiefly for use in manufacture
of writing paper,. Similar possibilities
nro offered by tire wrapping paper and
paper-bag industries.
Under, present conditions, however,
tho department considers it advisable
to warn farmers that careful investiga
tion docs not reveal a reul demand for
domestic flax straw as great as the
promoters of certain schemes have rep
resented it to be. For this reason flax
growers should be careful not to en
gago in an enterprise which might
leave on their handB large quantities of

farmers mny find it advisable to net

might operate a tow mill of sufficient
enpacity to handle tho entire amount
of straw within their area. Under this
arrangement it should be possible for
tho farmer to market the tow at a
price which would yield him a fair re
turn for the straw that is now permitted
to go to waste, and would, at the same
time, be nil inducement for manufactur

WINTER INJURY
Or FRUIT TREES.
The extremely cold wenther of the
early part of thin month (.Inuuiiiy,
11)10) will probably do harm to many
tender fruit trees and jdimhs. Die most
severe cases will result in tilling the
young wood and vpliltir.g the trunks
and large branches if tin trees; the
young branches turn btown or 11 :-It

In the linger brnnches and trunk the
inner bark, or the cambium layer, and
part of the sap wood man turn brown,
the bark often splits in 11 perpendicular
line and curls back. The wood of the
trm.k may split in extr-me eai'cs. Tho
hark is sometimes killed entirely around
the trunk at or just above the surface
of the soil or snow.
In handling such Injuries, I'rofessor
O, M. Morris, horticulturist of the
Washington Agricultural Kxperlmeitt

winter hilled twigs should be cut back
to sound or live wood. Sometimes the
