Within the past ten years. there has been
a gradual decrease in the fax crop in this
county, decrease of fully fifty per cent
We desire TO arouse the attention of farmers
to the importance of this subject, in the hope
that this decrease may be checked aud i'm
pulse. given that will bring this crop to its for
mer aggregate. This falling of has been q
heavy loss to the county.
Flax seed generally sells readily at 81 90
per bushel-the average yield last year WAS
eleven bushels to the acre. The staw or fiber
produced on an acre Of ground. il properly
cared for, will sell for about four dollars
This would make the total product of an
acre worth fifteen dollars, rendering it moro
profitable crop to the farmer than wheat. As
an article Of fodder for cattle. experience
has proven the straw TO be excellent. especi-
ally when sown with barley. which has been
done repeatedly with the happiest results.
One great advantage this crop possesses
