MAKE FLAX CROP PAY
When Given Good Culture II
Makes Big Returns.
Inability to Produce on All Lands
Found to Be Due to Parasitic
Fungus Known as "FIax
Wilt"-To Avoid Disease.

(By Q. o. CHURCHILL, North Dakota
f.; Agricultural College.)
Under ordinary conditions the cul
ture of fax has not been proving
very profitable crop, especially when
seeded very late. Yet when given the
best culture possible it is one of the
most paying crops that can be grown
on the farm. Its growth has moved
from the Atlantic ocean across the
United States to the west, always be.
Ing grown on breaking or compare.
lively new land. 1t did not succeed
on old fields. For this reason it was
thought that fax was hard on the
soil and reduced the fertility so that
profitable crops could not be grown
where fax had been produced few
times
1t is now known that this inability
to produce flax on all land is due to
a parasitic fungus known as flax wilt.
This disease of the fax lives in the
soil when once introduced and multi.
plies quite rapidly. 1t not only
grows on flax stubble, but any decay.
ing vegetable matter in the SOIL with
which the small seeds or spores come
In contact. The thing of Importance,
then, is to prevent the introduction
Of this disease to soil already infected,
II the disease Is not already on your
farm 1t may be to large extent kept
out by the following treatment:
l. Screen the seed very carefully, re
moving all pieces Of fax straw and
blackened and injured kernels. This
work cannot be done too carefully
2. Spray with a mixture of Tornado
hyde and water of the same strength
as that used for treating wheat or
oats. This spray must be applied from
a machine which throws very fine,
misty spray. A machine with com
pressed air tank is best. AS the
spray is applied the seed should be
ral1ed over, and as soon as the surface
is covered with film enough has
been applied. The seed should then
be shoveled into pile and allowed
to remain a short time before seeding.
1t should be remembered that the
hax wilt may be drifted along with
the dust from one farm to another
and in this way field becomes in.
fected which has never grown fax.
Flax should be seeded after sod
or cultivated crop and any grain crop
may follow fax. Especial care should
be taken to see that no weed seeds
are introduced in the fax seed; mus
tard, Canada thistles, pigeon grass,
small seeds. A strain of fax which
resists wilt to a certain extent has
been developed, and no doubt can be
greatly improved in the future This
shows the possibility Of developing
fax which will grow on flax-sick soil.

DISCOVERY OF MINERAL
NEAR MONTE VISTA

The old saying that gold is
where you find it," was further
illustrated this week when G. W.
Snyder discovered what appears
to be large body of low grade
gold ore in the hills west of Monte
Vista.
Mr.. Snyder brought samples of
the ore to town and assays show
returns, of $3 in gold and an ounce
in silver. A sample which had
been roasted showed large beads
of metal of copper hue and
should the rock prove to contain
other values other than gold and
silver, the find will prove a bonanza,
as the deposit occurs in massive
quantities.

The HOG - A MORTGAGE
LITTER

Under the above caption, the
Wallace State Bank some weeks
ago sent out pamphlet to their
patrons and friends urging the
fact that the hog is, literally, a
litter of mortgages and that in the
San Luis Valley is the ideal place
of all places where hog raising can
be successfully engaged in. Since
mailing these pamphlets the bank
has received a great many letters
endorsing the ideas expressed and
complimenting the spirit of CO.
operation shown.
The Wallace bank has since
issued other folders dealing with
subjects of interest to the farmers
and stockgrowers, the officers real
izing that, aside from the fact that
it is the best kind of advertising,
it tends to greatly advance the in
terests of the community, whose
prosperity is most to be desired.
Such methods mark the aggressive
and enterprising concerns.
