There are several astonishing
things in the above table. First,
the fact that eighty per cent of the
fetal acreage is in the northwes-
tern states mentioned. Second,
more than eighty per cont of the
total product comes from these
states. Third, the value of the
flax crop per bushel for 1899 was
very near one dollar bushel
throughout the country, the seed
in the northwestern states bring.
ing higher figures than were OBJ
tanned in other parts of the Union.
1t is claimed that flax is a very
exhaustive crop and this being
true, it is we'll that the experiment
tai agricultural departments of
North Dakota and Minnesota are
paying much attention to the
plant with view, doubtless, of
discovering the best way to return
to the soil the elements taken
therefrom by this crop that has
proven itself of late years to be 20
lucrative.
