W. Westeyliimse of Liberty, August 2. 1910. n daughter, to be named Wilma Dell. . . Dr. Harry McKay Tells of Early ExperienceIs a flax Enthusiast -' This is a story of flax culture in Ore gon, written by a man who was born in Ireland, who worked in the. flax fields as a youth and who later became interested in the raising of flax iu the Willamette valley. " It is written by Dr. Harry T. McKay of Portland to Theodore Roth, president of the Oregon Flax Fiber Co. Dr. McKay writes iu part: " "When I first located in Portland over 30 years ago, I noticed the climat ic conditions were somewhat similar to those of northern Ireland where I was born. it. struck me that flax could lie raised in the Willamette ' valley. From a small package uf seed sent me from my old home planted near Port land I grew a lengthy stock and good fibre. Some years afterwards,' Mrs. Wm. P. Lord called on ine .nnd got my views in regard to flax, and asked me to address a 'meeting of business men in Salem. " "I told them about flax and what if had done for the north of Irelund. Very little progress was made until vears after, and Mrs. Lord and others including myself, donated a small tract for experimental purposes. Flax was grown, retted and scutched.' ' 1 secured an experienced man iu Portland for Mrs. Lord, a man who had been, en gaged in scutching flax iu the county of Antrim. The crop was scute neil anu sent to several mills and we had the pleasure of receiving linens which cx- celled those made in Ireland and even excelled the Courtrai flax. This plac- ed it beyond the experimental stage. I "Little progress was made and when the legislature voted money f hoped that it would go with leaps and bounds nnd I pictured the growth ot Portland as well as other cities in the valley. Flax made Belfast with its population of more th:m 400,000. 'Aly principal object 111 writuig is to otter a few suggestions. When 1 waa in Europe in 11)02, 1 took with m some tlax 1 nad owaineu in cniem. j called on the York Spinning Mills at Belfast, employing' ' 5,000 spinners. When 1 handed the sample to one ot the officials I said, 'Give me yout opinion on the quality of tlfis flax.' After a close examination, he said, 'This is Courtrai flax.,; When 1 told him it was grown in Oregon, he scarce ly believed me, sayin ' that the sail pies sent from the raited States were much coarser. He cancel several otn-1 cials and they were astonished at tliei tenmle strength. . "In Ireland the swd used is what is callel Riga and is -sold by grocers in every village. 1 The farmer purchases the seed he ueec s. it is milleil anil ret ted by the farmers and the retting is done on his own land. Each flax grower has a series of dams or stupe which are along i.e fences, generally in meadow land. After the hay has been cut from the meadow, it is used for drying the straw after it has been sufficiently retted, the straw being spread out thinly tu dry. When it is dried, the farmer ties' it in bundles and takes it to the scutch mill. These mills are scattered about the country. Then a flux market is held about twice each moutn during the seuson 111 the village's buvers coming for that purpose. "Mr. Roth, I have wished many times ,1 had the money some of our Portland moss-bocks'- have as 1 would not hesitate in risking a fortuue- on the flax. We can grow the flax with out a doubt. TI1111K or now mucn mini ey is spent for the twine for the muk ing of nets on the Columbia river.'-' Week at the Theatres A number of interesting pictures, a sprinkling of satisfactory vaudeville and a stretch of musical farce have been the features which have kept the tired business man of Salem . from throwing himself into the river (at Riverside Dip) this' week. ' Attendance a"t Mini home production of "Mikado" was very light, So niuch sothat those sitting 011 the first floor at the Grand got lonely, and this 111 spite of the fact that the popular old opera was well presented. The com pany is to appear again tonight with & complete change ot price. The Paramount attractions for the week have 'been Kflna Goodrich in "The Making of Magdalcna," and Louise Huff in "Destiny's Toy."'-' - Mae Marsh of "The Hirth or a -a- ion" fame, has. been seen during the week in "A Child of 'the t I aris Streets," in which ' production she divides stellar honors with Robert Har - run. Also lias been seen William ' S. Hurt in "The Primal Lure." -' The two seriuls, "The 'Girl and the Oiinie" nnd "The Irorr Clnw," con - tinue with sustained interest.

' Iu the reports just filed, the record shows that for the month of July, 1910, there was less mail delivered than July of one year ago. Route two received a few more pieces and route three fell off compared to the amount of muil de livered Julv of 1915. Route four also shows a falling off not only in the amount of mail collected for the month but in the amount delivered. Route five is doing little better thun July of a year ago in the number of pieces re ceived, but has not been writing as many letters. Route six is on a boom, as the mail received is fully 50 per cent more than a year ago auu 1110 irucr ... imn,t doubled. Route sev . ,,,: .wi,,!, Were in crease in rami as well as sending our 0 per cent more. Route eight is about breakim? even with a year. ago. although the mail has been more than 200 pounds 1 heavier. This route is also writing more letters. Route nine, compared to July of one year ago received less mail al though it is doing a lot more writing. Route one is now in charge of E. N. Branson, who was given the route a month ago, after it had been served 13 years by James Remington. It is the longest of all routes and one of the hardest to handle. In July Mr. Branson delivered 12,409 pieces weighing 1,980 pounds. His heaviest cinys worm was ill iruri.v'ii), iuiiiiuo. ....... an average of nine hours and 14 minutes,- served 227 families with 140 boxes. Charles W. Brasher on route two trav eled with a horse and buggy nnd part of the time with a Ford. He bundled 12.S74 pieces during July weighing 1,044 pounds. His average working time was seven hours end nine minutes ia duy. 'He served 241 families using 182 boxes. His heaviest day's burden was 117 pounds. Coming along ha collected 1.4 1 H pieces of mail weighing 107 pounds. Lyman McDonald traveled with an auto. He has the biggest job of the nine rural men as he delivered moro pieces than any, 20,20c, with a weight or 3,uo poutius ana ne carried out 1,251 pieces on his busiest day which wus a lot more than any man did. Ho delivers to 3SS fumilies in 278 boxes, The folks 011 this routo are pretty good letter writers as he collected 2,214 pieces during the month, weighing 109 pounds. Since Mr. McDonald rides in an auto, he does not put in as many hours as he did a year ogo. George Litchfield on route four did I not huve as many pieces this July to de- liver as he did one year ago. His record this year is 10,810 pieces compared to IX Inn 11 veur niro Julv. and hia horse allj buggy got. over the ground with : an average of eight hours and 2i nun- j ntes a day," compared to nine hours iond five minutes last year.
