were planted in the valley while
slightly less than $4,000 acres were
planted this season.
There were many reasons FOR the
reduction of flax acreage in the
valley, according to L. G. Goar,
superintendent at the Meloland eX-
pertinent station. Many farmers
planted wheat because reports
promised a good price for that crop.
Land was not available in many
cases
There is no danger of overpro-
iuction of flax in the valley, Goar
said. and for that reason flax will
become a permanent crop in the
valley. Flax is one crop for which
there is always a ready market.
Prices are kept close to So per
bushel by high tariffs on imported
flax and as result flax that has
been cared for is bound to net a
profit.
Imperial Valley flax gives three
lives the yield per acre of other
sections where flax is grown. This
is another item in favor of the
valley flax grower.
