Making War Linen
Industry Permanent
Ontario's Flax Fibre Production
Quadrupled in Four Years, Tariff
Proteetion Given
Sending flax seed to Ireland seems
as anomalous as carrying coals to New-
castle, but the war has been full of
surprises, Canada is actually supply.
dug Ireland with a oonsideruble portion
of ]ler flax seed requirements, mainly
from Ontario, More than this, we are
rapidly building up a flourishing linen
industry of our own. Before the war,
nearly all the flax grown in Canada was
for shad only: Now, the greater port-
ion produced in Ontario is grown prim-
arily for the fibre, Saskatchewan and
Alberta, also heavy flax producers,
grow it exclusively for the seed, and
Manitoba grows it almost entirely for
that purpose,
Ontario's rapid rise in flax growing
reads like a fable, Years ago, con-
siderable flax fibre was produced in
that province, but the industry slowly
went down before severe European
competition, 1n 1915. Ontario had
4,000 aores in flax; in loth, 5,2oo acres;
ip 1917, 7,872; and in 1918, 15,925 00re111
The war is responsible, not only did
it seriously affect the European pro
duration, but it created a tremenduue
demand for linen, both for tailplane
wings and other purposes.
Heretofore, our small linen maau-
facturing itlllttatty depended for its
raw materiai ultuoat entirely on foreign
paras, As the war went 011, aupyli s
of these began to ilwindlr,, oulmi11ating
early this you. in Great Britain, the
mai,, source of supply, prohibiting the
export of all linen yarns, Our linen
mills hall either to close down or go
into some other lino of manufacturing
Some (vent temporarily into cotton
spinning, and a campaign was at once
begun for stimulating rho flax fibre
industry in this country lis 0 result
production of flax fibre hes been Ire—
mendouaiy woreased, 'Mlle are being
equipped with linen tlireed malting
machinery, anti, very so0u, Canada
will enpply her own linen requirements
send o great deal overseas for war
purposes, and ship considerable to the
United States and Australia, who are
anxious to take ally surplus,
Will European competition chive
the industry out of business as before
Hardly, The manufauturere have seen
to that, Representations were made to
the Dominion Government, as a result
of which an Order in Colwell wap
p058011 last month granting a bounty
on linen yarns macre in Uenada, 'Then,
too, the mauufaoturer s old friend, the
protective tariff, conies to their aid.

material is adnlittod tree of duty,
With such en0ouraeement, it will not
