TURNER FLAX PLANT
READY FOR BUSINESS
Superintendent Hansett High
ly Pleased and Confident
Of Success

The Oregon Flax Fibre company Of
Salem, which has its mill at Turner, had
an offer Of 500 ton for their flax
fibre. They expect $500 before the new
year.
This sounds very good and makes Su-
perintendent Hsnsett smile, and be hap.
py. This helps him to forget all the
trouble he had to put up modern flax
mill. Our water retting plant is patent.
ed in Belgium and is an imitation of a
river. And we can ret 200 tons of flax
straw in two weeks. The river retting
is very much superior to tank or hot
water retting. 1t is better because it
makes the fibre more soft and silky
and not sa harsh. Hot water retting
looks very much like chemical. Some
one is thinking that the season to ret
flax is TOO short and too wet in Oregon.
In Belgium one-half of the retting is
done by the 18th of September and in
the spring ret the balance.
The setting of our modern decortca-
tor card to hackle the tew, our patented
flax thresher. tow machine and scutcher
work the capacity Of 90 men, shafting
and pulley was slow and costly work
not being able 10 fiudS good milwright
| who understood the setting Of flax ma
chincry.
Now our plant is ready for inspection
and we wish that the Commercial club
appoint committee, and also the board
of control to come to Turner and see
what we are doing in our modern
plant.
We are turning ont Al work and by
our system to run the business, we are
| able to, know at night whether we are
making profit or loss.
Having started in the business too
late to have any farmers raise much
flax for us, we were able still to get 30
tons and later 40 tons.
We will be able TO run the mill stead
lily until the new crop. We will demon
strate to the flax boosters what good
paying proposition can be made Of the
flax industry in the Willamette val
ley.
Yours respectfully,
Z. ]. HANSETT.
