THE NORTHWEST
NEW MACHINE FOR UTILIZING
FLAX FIBER.
Mrs. O. N. Olberg of Minneapolis, a
Fiber Expert of Wide Repute, Says
the Device Is Likely to Do for Flax
What the Cotton Gin Did for Cot
ton. Mrs. O. N. Olbenr of 808 Fourth
treet SE has returned from Chicago,
Where she witnessed the demonstra
tion of a fiber-brake, recently invent
ed by the American Brake and Fiber
company, and to meet some of the
best fiber experts of the country. Eu
gene Bosse, formerly of this state, now
at the head of the fiber industry of
Oregon, an expert of national repute,
had come on especially to be present
at the demonstration, and pronounces
the machine an entirely new idea.
The purpose of this machine is to
extract the fiber from flax, hemp,
ramie, Jute and other fiber-bearing
plants. The methods heretofore used

LASELL
w6min&fy Young Women.
Auburndale, Mass.
Training the intellect at the expense of the
body or at a sacrifice of womanly spirit and
womanly graces is a condition that cannot
exist at Lasell.
What the woman shall be, rather than what
he can do, is here considered of first import
ance.
The highest standard is maintained for the
Jntellectual development, but here, as in no
other school for young women, the purely
scholastic work is combined with a unique
and practical training in the application of
the various branches of Domestic Science.
Above all, it is the aim at Lasell to prepare
each student for tho greatest usefulness in life,
"tofither for the womauly duties of home keep
ing, to polish her with the social graces and
charm or bearing that mark true womanhood.
Specialists preside in all branches, and the
school is kept purposely small in number
students to insure the best individual' resultf
and a true home atmosphere.
Everything that a beautiful suburban loca
tion can offer for health, comfort and pleasure
is secured at Auburndaleand Boston's
wealth of educational advantages and historic
^interests but ten miles distant.
Lasell is well worth investigating. Many
K- parents have written strong commendatory
^'letters on the unusual qunlity of the school
work. For catalogue and information address

Wednesday' Evening',
that have been successful, have been
those from earliest historical times, by
which the shive or stem was removed
in a general way by hand machines
or by various kinds of heavy rollers.
This merely loosened the shive from
the fiber. Then came the laborious
task of scutching, which was shaking
or beating by the scutchwheel. This
process required expert labor.
The new machine brakes and
scutches at the same time, and has a
very large capacity, and furthermore,
it does the work so perfectly that no
hand scutching can compare with it.
Mrs. Olberg says: "It was pronounced
by the fiber experts a perfect marvel.
I predict that this machine will do
for the fiber industry what the cotton
gin did for cotton, revolutionizing the
fiber industries in the next few years."
Mrs. Olberg is widely known as a
fiber expert. She was a member of
the jury on fibers at the world's fair,
Chicago, and spent the entire summer
at the Omaha exposition, in charge of
the flax exhibit. She one of the
oreranizers of the National Flax, Hemp
and Ramie association, of which she
became., the secretary, and she still
holds the office. While at the world's
fair, Mrs. Olberg's knowledge of fibers
and fitness for the work was recog
nized by the foreign jurors. Later she
was appointed by the American com
mission as juror on textiles at the
Paris exposition. While on her tour
abroad, she visited Courtral, Belgium,
the flax center of the world.' She also
spent some time in Ireland, visiting
the largest linen mills in that country
as well as going into the rural dis
tricts to see the cottage industry.
Strange as it may seem, the very finest
table linens are still woven by hand.
In an interview, Mrs. Olberg spoke
of the Loppens tank system of ret
ting, which is now in use in this coun
try. The fiber retted by this process
brings such fine color to the fiber that i
in comparing it with the European
fibers it has been thought by spin- i
ners to have been chemically retted.
"I feel satisfied now," remarked I
Mrs. Olberg, "that with this new
braking machine and the tank system I
of retting, the time is not far distant
when we shall not only manufacture
our own linens, but become export
ers as well. Already the large amount!
of flax straw which has annually gone
to waste in the northwest is being'
utilized. By recently-discovered pro
cesses the straw is converted into I
paper pulp and made into the finest
linen paper. By another process the flax
straw is used for making the flax fiber
floor deadenerwhich meets the re
quirements of a first-class deadening
material and has' the advantage of
being very cheap. It also affords com
plete insulation against heat and cold.
As an insulator it can be used for re
frigerators, cold storage, etc. In fact
I cannot begin to enumerate the vari
ous purposes to which the flax fiber
or hemp can be putsuch as ropes,
twines, threads, carpets and all kinds
of linen. But the new machine will
so simplify and cheapen the produc
tion of fiber that much of it will be
used for making the higher grades of
goods, which will bring more money
to both the farmer and manufacturer."
GOLLEGTION IS RECALLED
BISHOP M'CABE LEARNS FANNY
CROSBY IS NOT IN NEED, AS HE
HAD BEEN INFORMED.
Bishop C. C. McCabe has formally
withdrawn the call made a few weeks
ago for a collection to be received
Sunday for Fanny Crosby, the well
known writer of famous hymns, who
had been reported to be in need at
the advanced age of 84. Bishop I.
W. Joyce today made this statement:
"The report concerning the need of
Miss Crosby seems to have gotten into
circulation thru the chance remark of
some friend of Miss Crosby. Bishop
McCabe. a personal friend of the au
thor, decided to acquaint the public
with her reported financial condition.
Accordingly he and two other bishops
made calls for he?p. Her publishers,
seoing this notice, sent a letter to Dr.
James N. Buckley, editor of the
Christian Advocate. In the call which
Bishop McCabe sent out it is stated
that Miss Crosby was in financial need
because she had, sold her hymns to
publishers for small sums and they
held the copyrights themselves. Her
publishers deny that she is in want
and state that they.pay her a stipend
equal to her average weekly earnings
in her prime. For her further aid,
thev L.re about to publish a book
called "Bells at Evening and Other
Verses," which includes the story of
her life and her most popular hymns
which Blge'ow & Main -vill pe: mix
to appo'r without charge. The pro
ceeds are to go entirely for her sup-
port."
Women with pale, colorless faces,
who feel weak and discouraged, will
receive both mental and bodily vigor
by using Carter's Iron Pills, which are
made for the blood, nerves and com
plexion.
