Starting with an acreage of) 1,070,000 acres in 1921, the crop de- | loped to 3,197,000 acres in 1924, but) back to 2.916.000 acres in| +—4-3929, when 16,279,000 bushels were) produced. j ‘In Minnesota. acreage in flax went as high as 910,000 in 1926, and in 1929 | ‘was down to 523,000 acres. North | Dakota’s acreage in flax has remained more constant. being 1.463.000 acres | in 1929 with the second largest pro- | duction in history, 6,876,000 bushels. ‘Montana has had many ups and! Gowns in its production, reaching a high mark of 293,000 acres in 1929 but with lower production. ‘South | Dakota had its biggest acreage in, 3929, but with a smaller production than in banner years. “If the crop cannot be held to a higher production per acre.” Bolley| said, “through improved methods so dthat it will pay our Northwest farm- rs, then it is evident that our flax- | Crushing plants must be moved to the Seaboard.” Right Planting Is Key | Education must be pushed, he said, insure planting at the right time, under proper soil conditions and then faken care of. Mr. Smith, who was made chairman pf the committee, called flax “uni- Yormly the best cash-paying crop in this territory.” He pointed out that | this country uses 40,000,000 bushels a} year but raises only about half of it.; He proposed an increase of 10 to 15) per cent in acreage and major efforts | pn a campaign for better methods to Jnerease the yield per acre.

Announcement of the new car comes right at the close of Chevrolet's greatest year, for the sensational suc- cess of the six-cy!inder Chevrolet, in- troduged just a year ago, resulted in an output cf 1,350,000 cars this year, breaking by a wide margin all former Chevrolet annual production records. Scores of distinct improvements have been made in the 1930 Chevrolet line, the factory announces. Greater beauty, added safety factors, im- proved riding comfort and better all- round performance with added power and faster acceleration are an- nounced.as features of the new line. Larger tires, small wheels, Delco- Lovejoy hydraulis shock absorbers at all four wheels, Fisher slanting non- glare VV windshield and vastly im- proved four wheel braking system are some of the highlights. Brakes an Innovation Brakes are of the internal expand- ing “articulated shoe type” both front and rear, those on the front wheels having two shoes while those on the rear have four. These brakes, also, are fully enclosed giving perfect pro- tection against water and dirt. The brakes represent an innovation not only in the Chevrolet line but in the entire passenger car field. The brakes may be adjusted without the removal of any plates from the brake drum and’ operate with equal effi- ciency on all four wheels. - The emer- gency brake is an independent unit cperating on the rear drums. A new method of construction known as the ‘articulated shoe type” ussures uni- form braking under all conditions of temperature. Tests at the General Motors proving ground show that the new brake will stop a car traveling 30 miles per hour in two and two-tenths | seconds within 48 feet. | ‘The attractive new closed bodies, | in a variety of colors, carry the fa- mous Fisher stamp of craftmanship. Eight models, three of which are new to Chevrolet, comprise the line. Of the eight, five are closed cars and three are open. The closed cars are the sedan, coach, coupe, sport coupe and club sedan. The open models are the roadster, sport roadster and phaeton. The models new to the line this year are the sport coupe, sport roadster and club sedan. New Engine Retained a ‘The six-cylinder valve-in-head en- gine introduced a year ago, after four years of research and development, jhas been further improved and re- fined. Working with Chevrolet's chief en- gineer, were General Motors engineers and proving ground engineers, with 18 Chevrolet engineers assisting their chief in supervising the development and refinement of the improved six- cylinder motor found in “the greatest Chevrolet.” The result of the efforts of this en- gineering talent is a smoother, quiet- er, more powerful . The new engine, fully enclosed, with a high compression non-detonating head, develops 50 horsepower. ‘The brake horsepower has been in- |! creased over the entire speed range. At 1000 revolutions per minute 245 horsepower is developed and the max- imum of 50 horsepower is attained at 2,600 revolutions per minute. This increase in power insures a marked improvement in acceleration and hill climbing ability. Specifically the rear axle has been redesigned while the differential unit has been strength- ened and its oiling system to insure long life and quiet oper- er to to Miss Kathleen Warren left last evening for Milwaukee, Wis. where she is a student at Marquette univer- sity, after spending the Christmas of the Connolly Motor company, put a stop to the soldiers’ vandalism by administering a “rabbit” punch to mn. i INOOME TAX BLANKS SIMPLIFY RETURN Commissioner Acker Has De- vised Joint Form for Farm- ing and Business The making of state income tax | reports will be easier if not more pleasant under a change made by | Iver Acker, state tax commissioner, |" Heretofore, separate \ sons making | cultural ‘income returns but Acker other kinds of business and the new blanks will make reporting easier for them without causing any additional work for other persons using it. ‘The new blank is as simple as it is pos- sible to make it and still comply with the law, Acker said.
