Parent Teachers
Association

In our public schools, four fac
tors are primarilyinvolved. They
are the pupil. the board of edu-
cation. the teacher and the par.
ent. There has been a long-felt
want of closer cooper alton with
the parent or fourth factor by
the school board and the teacher.
Under the present organization
of the public school system, there
is little opportunity for the par
ent to express himself on school
politics. Therefore this lack Of
cooperation and expression is be-
ing met in the school systems by
organizations called Parent
Teachers clubs or associations,
AS such an association has re-
Gently been formed in the Lem

value. 1t will afford means of
studying school problems and
the methods of attacking them;
it will permit the parent to con.

the community; and it will cult.

the home. The parent will be-
come mucn better acquainted
with the teacher, and his child
will learn more of that which is
being done in the school. And,
finally, any individual of the com

questions.
Moreover, talks will be given

May be Submitted Again

A movement. has started in
Corson county to bring up before
the voters the proposition of di.
viding Corson county into three
separate counties, with Morris
town, Mcintosh and Mclaughlin
as prospective county seats. The
county as it now stands is one of
the largest in the state, but has
the greatest amount of non-taX-
able land Of any county in the
state. The question was sub
mltted to the voters in 1910 and
and 1912, but was defeated both
times. The plan submitted then
was to divide the county in two.

Flax Tow Mill
Probable Industry

A movement was started {
week ago by the Commercial
Club of this city to secure fac
lory here to manufacture fla,
ow and also in connection grint
Alfalfa and manufacture stocI
.ood.
About the time that the mat.
er was brought up, Alfred An.
iresen, president Of the Baker
Flax Products Co., at Baker
Mont, visited our city and a
he invitation of the Commercial
Club, attended the MONDAY lunct
IN Monday and explained in de-
all what they are doing in Bak
n.
For those who do not know
what a tow mill is, We will en-
ieavor to offer little eXplana
ion. Flax, as most of you
know, consists for the greater
part of woody substance that
is tough and wholly unfit for
food. The object of the tow
Mill is to separate this tough
woody substance from the edible
portions Of the plant. In tie
process of separation, this ind
gestible substance is shredded
into silk-like strands, which is
called tow. This. after proper
treatment, is used in packing
mattresses and for similar pur-
poses. The finer grades of tow
are used in the manufacture OF
thread. The edible portion OF
the flax is used IN the manufac-
ture of a stock food that is not
only very beneficial to all kinds
of livestock but is also exceed
ingly low in price.
Those present, among when
were several of our progressive
farmers and land owners, were
greatly impressed with the tax
given by Mr.. Andersen and the
opinion was that II
the farmers could be shown the
benefits to be derived by such an
the erection of fac
tory would be a certainty.
Following are the important
features brought out in Mr.. An.
lresen's address:
What do you think OF getting
s4.OO per ton for your flax straw
after it has been threshed!
The Lemmon herald. (Lemmon, Perkins County, S.D.) 1912-1917, 1916-02-09

What about getting $500 pei
bn for your flax straw, if it does
not mature?
If it gets frost bitten?
If it gets hailed down?
| If it stands only five inches
iigh?
! What do you think of getting
I threshed absolutely free OF
barge. whether the yield is two
)r twenty-five bushels per acre
and being sure of a cleaner jot
If threshing, which gives you
An additional bushel or rwo of
seed, and then getting $500 per
Ton for your straw?
If you were present at the
mill yourself, with one team at
me end unloading the straw and
another team at the other end
,aking away the seed, wouldn't t
you be assured of a square deal?
DO you realize that such an
arrangement would, under the
most adverse circumstances, pay
for the breaking of the land and,
under ordinary circumstances,
pay you an additional So to $40
per acre?
You may say, 1 teed my flax
straw
Have you noticed that the
agricultural journals advise a.
gainst feeding it?
Have you not heard of the
great number of horses and cat
tie that die from eating it?
Have you watched how fond
of the flax straw the cattle are?
DO you know why it is dan
gerous to feed to cattle?
1T is because of the indistable
tow in it. which clogs the pass.
ages and chokes them to death?
Why take your chances and
feed this straw, when, by this
new factory, feed could be
made from the digestible part of
the plant, molasses and other in
gradients, at a price less than
half of that charged by other
manufacturers of stock foods, or
a price as cheap as bran with
screenings or even oats?
If such mill was establish
ed in Lennon, it could use from
{, 600 to 20, 900 tons of flax straw.
It matters little how far it is
hauled as long as the farmers are
willing to deliver the straw at
the prices offered. It would Re
impossible to overload the mill.
