To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In pulling it is of the utmost importance that the long and short stems be kept separate as much as possible, and also that the root ends be kept perfectly even, as the yield of fibre will be thereby improved, both in the subsequent scutching and hackling pro- cesses. As the cultivation, harvesting and retting of flax straw is a regular industry in Belgium, and particularly along the banks of the River Lys, on both sides of Courtrai, we will give a description of the methods there employed as r...epre- senting the best practice. 48 CORDAGE FIBRES The Flemish pullers pull the flax straw up in handfuls about one-half larger than they can grasp in one hand. When pulled they spread it a little as they lay it on the ground in rows. The bunches should be laid with tops and roots alternating, which prevents the seed bolls from sticking to each other in lifting. The straw is stocked as soon after pulling as possible, and never allowed to remain overnight unstooked, except in settled weather. The stooking goes on at the same time as pulling, as if rain comes on while on the ground its colour is injured.
