te MONDAY, AUGUST 25,-1919 FREE THRESHING OF FLAX, BIGGER YIELD PROMISED New Bismarck Enterprise Should Bring Greater Prosperity to Farmers ‘North Dakota flax farmers within a 200-mile radius of Lismarck will have no threshing bills to pay this fall, if they take advantage of an of- fer made them by the american Grown dlax kibre Upera-ing corpora} tion of 14 Broadway, New York, whose first fibre mill, recently estab- lished in. this city, is now ready for gperation. H. R. Bonny, the manager, asks farmers to ship their flax to him di- rect from the mower. He agrees to thresh it without charge, assures them at least a bushel to the acre more than ordinary separator meth- ods will produce, and asks tne straw in return for his Javor. The company pays the freight both ways. ‘Bonny is the inventor of the ma- chinery with which the “A. G. F. F. ©.” corporation separates fibre trom flax straw. The company, whicn is operating here on its own capital, without local inducements of any sort, manutactures a number of grades of tow and fibre which are worked into the finished article in New England mills which the corporation owns or controlls. The corporation can well afford to do the farmers’ “areshing. states Mr. Bonny, for the superior grade of long fibre which results from taking the straw before it has been chopped up in a separator. The local manager, who has been engaged in flax and lnen enterprises in New York for many years, is confident of the suc- cess of the local industry, and he plans to expand the plant next spring to’ several times its present size and to contract for all the flax straw which he can obtain in western ‘North Dakota, providing Townley doesn’t levy too heavy a tax on pri- vate industry. ‘Bismarck is the center of ‘North Dakota's greatest flax-growing terri- tory. There are yet hundreds of acres of raw land to be broken in tho region tributary to Bismarck, on both sides of the river. Flax is. al- ways a most profitable first-year crop, and it is frequently used in rotations on cultivated land. In addition railway lines radiating through this territory in seven different directions, Bismarck reaches a vast area of new country through the Benton Packet Co.'s steamers which ply. up and down the Missouri froin this point.

His tragic and untimely death comes as a severe|shock to tue community. : | ANOTHER NEAR TRAGEDY. | Myron Skeels miraculously escaped death Saturday night’ when a light runabout he was driving broke a rear wheel near where the Lenhart acci- dent occurred twenty-four hours jater and almost completely wrecked the car. ‘ Skeels was driving toward Bismarck and had just crossed the South Soo tracks west of the penitentiary. With- out warning, the rear wheel broke and the car turned completely over, throw- ing Skeels a considerable distance. Skeels was gashed about the face and neck and his back was.badly. bruised, but ihe did not suffer any serious in- juries. t A Delco lighting plant, was carried on the rear of the automobile for dem- lonstration purchases, When Skeels felt; the car turning over, he flung himself down on the cushions of the seat in hopes that the steering column would save him in case the car landed upside down. The force of. the car's somersault. however, threw Skeels bodily out of the car, and he picked ~himself uv about 50 feet from where the car fin- It’s More Than a Pipeless The Round Oak Pipe- less Furnace is decidedly superior — improved. to} i We i BISMARCK DAILY ‘TRIBUNE “LET UNCLE SAM PLAN YOUR HOUSE” FouR ROOM TWO-TAMILY HoUsE-DL. » First FLOOR PLA’ SPECIFICATIONS.
