DAKOTA” United States Department of Agriculture Expert Draws Conclusions MORE FLAX NEEDED, Devils Lake, N. D., Feb. 17.-Farm ers of the northwest can safely in-| crease the flax acreage only slight- | ly over the 1924 figures, is the opin- | ion of Dr. W. J. Spillman, consult- | ing specialist of the bureau of eco- | nomics, U. S, department of agri- | culture, who spoke at Devils Lake | yesterday afternoon. | “During the war there was very | little building construction in this | country and old structures received very little repairs,” Mr. Spillman de- clared. “This situation continued during the era of depressed prices in 1921 and to some extent in 1922. | But, beginning with 1922, when busi- ness began to revive after the de- pression, there was a remarkable revival in all the industries connect- ed with the building trade. “This made a very unusual demand for paint, of which linseed oil is the basis. At the close of the war we were producing only about one-third of the flaxseed required to supply air needs for linseed oil, and were importing the balance from Argen- | tina and Canada. “This fact, together with the fact that we have a tariff on flaxseed of 40 cents a bushel, made the. price | very satisfactory to growers, Wheat being low priced at the time, we made a very marked increase in the production, of flaxseed. Our produc- ! tion for the past four years in mil-'! lions of bushels has been 8 10, 17,/ and 30. “The amount of flaxseed ground by the mills in this country in 1924 was 37,700,000 bushels. for the year ending Sept. 30, 1924, and the seed was from the crop of 1923 mainly. Since we produced only 17,000,000 bushels that year, it was necessary to import some 20,000,000 bushels. | “The estimated need for flaxseed | for the year 1925 is about 40,000,000 | bushels, and we have a crop from| last year of 30,000,000, so that there will be presumably an import of about 10,000,000 bushels. Under these conditions the price of flaxseed | should remain at a high level until! a new harvest comes in. The Ar- gentine flax crop is a little short this year, a fact which was ascer- | tained only recently. This is the, cause of the recent marked rise in the price of flax. “The price of this year's crop of flaxseed will depend mainly upon | the magnitude of the crop and on the ‘continuation of building con- struction and repair at approximate- ly the present rate. Those engaged in the paint trade are of opinion | that the demand for paint this year will be somewhat larger than it was last year. They base this estimate mainly on the fact that in the wheat territory farmers will have somewhat more money to spend this year than they had last. These farmers are | large users of paint. About 85 per cent of the paint used in this coun- try is applied to old structures, the other 15 per cent to new structures. The demand for paint, therefore, de- ends more upon the general busi- ness situation and the amount of money. farmers and others have to spend, than it does upon new con- struction, Assuming that we shall need 40,- 000,000 ‘bushels of flaxseed this year and abcut the same amount next year, it will be safe for American Browers to sow a crop that, with a normal yield, would produce about 32,000.900 bushels for crushing, with an added 2,000,000 bushels for seed. -nie assumes an importation of 8,000,000 bushels, which should keep tue price of flaxseed at a fairly high ; level. Last year we had 3,289,000 | acres of flax. The average yield for flax for three years past has been. just nine bushels to the acre. If we count on this yield this year, there is then with safety, room for increasing our flax acreage about 15 | per cent. If we make that increase and get a yield of nine bushels or less, flax growing should: be .very profitable for the hard apring- wheat states which at the. present time are growing 98 per cent of our: entire crop.” Appropriation | For Williston | Held Likely Washington, Feb. 17.—Twenty-five | house conferees on the interior de- partment appropriation ill have agreed to accept the senate amend- . ment to allot $25,000 for the Willis- ton, N.

He has studied the facts diligently and talked the problens over with farmers. 1 know a great deal of the president’s time has been given to farm problems.
