NEVADA FARMERS WILL FIND FLAX PROFIT
ABLE.
Easily Grown and Cared. FOR and Yields Big
Crops

NANNht llO pdtOllNo bhot
a series of highly successful ex-
periments has just been concluded
in the East, in manufacturing
paper out of cotton stalks and flax
fibre, the latter proving to be the
best adapted for the purpose. At
the present time, the bulk of the
paper used in the country, is made
from spruce and hemlock trees,
and when it is considered that one
New York newspaper alone con-
sumes the trees from ten acres of
ground every day, it is not difficult
to forsee the day when wood for
paper, will be out of the question.
From time to time many efforts
have been made in the line of
adapting some other material to
this purpose. Some varieties OF
sea weed have been found excel
lent, but the supply is not certain
and the available supply is limited.
The discovery that the fibre from
the stalk of fax, however, is GER
tainly a most important one, and
one which opens up a new field
for Nevada.
The growing of fax, under fa-
vorable market conditions, affords
one of the most profitable crops
suitable for the farms of Nevada
and other of the arid Western
states.
In the first place fax will thrive
in soil of rather inferior quality
for ordinary farm use. 1t is not
stunted or killed by a reasonable
amount of kali, which permeates
nearly all Nevada soils, and makes
them totally unfit for many plants.
Flax will endure considerable
water for short time, so flooding
is not attended with serious results
to the crop, if not sustained, and
on the other hand, it will thrive
during seasons when water is
limited. In this respect it is hard
ier than alfalfa, which is so sue
cessfully grow IL in this State.
1t also yields heavier crop per
acre than does alfalfa, and is bet
ter food for cattle. The entire
plant is worked up, and presents
a marketable commodity.
After cutting, it is threshed in
manner similar to wheat or oats,
and the threshing machines used
by the Nevada valley farmers,
will require alteration only in the
size of the screens used, at cost
of very few dollars. The seed,
or grain, is passed between rollers
which extract the oil, in which
they are very rich. This oil brings
a good price in the market, and
San Francisco will consume all
that Nevada can supply.
The material left, after the oil
is extracted from the seed, is the
we'll known "oil cake" which is
richer in food principles, for stock,
than is any of the cereals ordina-
rily harvested for that purpose.
coil cake" will fatten stock when
nothing else will, and is easily
marketed in any part of the coun
try
The straw, which is now all that
we have left on hand, makes splen-
did food for cattle, and for this
purpose will not be injured to the
slightest extent by the removal OF
the fibre which lies near the center
of the stalk.
Thus a crop of flax will yield
four marketable products, and GER
tainly offers possibilities worthy
the earnest consideration of the
land owner of Nevada.
