NORTH DAKOTA FLAX
A Local Grain House Has Compiled
Some Figures Covering
the Acreage.
Thirty Per Cent Decrease Predicted
or / 800, ooo Acres Against 1,ooo,-
600 Last Year.

The following figures are compiled By Ed
wards, Wood & Co. and show an estimate of the
acreage sown, or that will be sown, to fax in
North Dakota.
The report says: Much attention is being
given at present to fax and the probable acreage
that will be sown in North Dakota. OF course
1T is vet too early to give exact figures. Several
estimates have been made, but we believe these
figures will be more nearly the correct ones.
The area seeded TO fax last year in orth
Dakota was approximately 100000 acres Now
on account of favorable spring for seeding.
there Will be a big increase in the acreage sown
to wheat, barley and corn Farmers will be to
some extent influenced by low prices received
last year for fax as compared with prices in
1901. There is also to be considered the failure
last year. and the further fact that considerable
of the land is now fax sick, In all equaling a
decrease of 80 per cent.
Thirty per cent of 1000. 600 acres is $4,000
acres and would leave ]. $3.50, 900 acres, and with
a liberal allowance for new land will foot up a
total acreage in North Dakota for this year of
100000 acres, which is conservative. and
would indicate a yield fer North Dakota of not
more than II. 0o0. 600 bu compared with an esti-
mated yield last year lof Il. 600 900 btl.
