NEW LINEN PLANT.
A Brazilian Product Which Is More
Abundant Than Flax.

In recent report 10 the govern
ment in Washington the United State.
Consul General at Rio Janeiro de
scribes a plant which resembles fax
but is remarkably abundant in Bra
iii. 1t is virtually a weed. reachin:
a height of twelve or fifteen feet IL
four or eve months. Experiment:
en- several plantations. the largest o
the latter being at Rodeiro and 30;
Vista. TIE. product is to be sold IL
England and Ireland The fibre i:
said to be eqaal to the best Euro
pean flax, but the plant itself seems
to be superior in two Or three re
spects. 1t is hardy ard requires 1T
tie attention after sowing. 1t thrive:
equally well in Wet and dry weathe;
and in all kinds OF soil. A corp ma
tropics three crops year are pos
sible. From the fact that Brazilian
fax will grow on waste land, o.
which there is vast amount II
Brazil. and from the circumstances
that no cultivation seems to be re
quired, the Brazilians think that ii
will prove much cheaper than tins
best fax grown elsewhere.
The fibre runs generally into three
grades. the finest OF which corresponds
to the best linen. the second to coarse
linen and the third to European hemp
From the fibre of the plant. there
fore. come both fine linen and strons
rope. The residue OF the plant is
composed of high grade cellalos. saio
to be especially suitable for the manu-
facture Of fine writing paper, the
whiteness and clearness Of the stem
of the plant simplifying the process
Of manufacture. The fibre is adapted
to dyeing and bleaching. The dyet

pearance
Samples of fibre have been trans
mitted to Washington. and portions
will be loaned by the Bureau OF Manu-
features on application from American
textile manufacturers. These were
taken from a plant growing wild. The
cultivated product shows finer fibre
with strands of greater length. belns
much longer than European linen o.
hemp. In fact. it is so long that 4
must be cut before being used TO-
weaving purposes.

The Handy Telephone.

A little item in the Detroit News
illustrates very nicely the advantage
of having a telephone on the farm
and especially an advantage that the
phone" is net generally given credit
for. The item referred to says that
the team of a farmer near Sherwood
sank In a mire on his farm and tho
horses were slowly going under when
he thought of his telephone. Soon
he had a gang Of 4 dozen phone wire
stretchers, with implements, on =
race for the farm. Their arrival was
timely, the breathing apparatus OF
the animal being still above ground.
BY using the stretching machinery
the horses were dragged from tho
bog. The rural telephone itseI: Is q
great thing for the farmers. but stin
being provided with troop Of rousta-
bouts for emergencies, all for the low
price of the phone, Is worth taking in
to consideration.

Economy i, Thorough Mastification.
Mr.. Fie' hers contention that We
eat far in excess Of our true require
tonishing degree by the results OF the
Yale experiment. as published recent
~ in the monumental report Of Pro-
lessor Chittenden. writes Hyman
Askowith in Good Housekeeping. This
has been widely accepted as an au-
thOrity, and there is no longer any
excuse for doubling that NEST of us
eat between two and three times as
much as is both necessary and good
for us. BY the force Of long continued
habit. the idea has become ingrained
in human beings that gen.
erous amount of food is essential to
the maintenance of health.
The wealthy set no limit to
their expenditure for the table, and
the poor will eco. omize on anything
but food. In this way large sums OF
money are wasted on purely imagin-
airy need based upon a false theory.
The saving that could be effected by
true methods of eating is large
enough, says Professor Chittenden.
TO make the difference between pau
perism and affluence." In many fam
lilies the expenditure for food is the
largest single item OF expense. and a
reduction in this item sets free
large sum which can be used to adj
vantage in other ways. AS a rule
those who adopt F1etcherism soon
lose their appetite for meat and the
more expensive foods, and this means
substantial saving.

Increased Value Of Farms.

The average real estate value o
medium farms in the United State
in 1905, according to recent Govern
ment report. was $29.11 an acre
against $3.50 an acre in 1900. Al
lowing for the political motive Of the
administration to make a fine show
ing before the elections. 1t appears
to be true that there has been rea.
increase in farm values. This has
however. been caused by the industr.
