know Of individuals who commenced In

sum making their brooms during their
leisure time. The culture Of broom corn
II simple, requiring about the same care
a Indian corn, and may be planted In
the same field. A row or W. =
be planted 1t one side Of the
field, putting the rows about the
distance apart, and the hills "
to two and one-half feet apart. II il

sensitive TO the cold, and needs good
growing weather and ~cultivsting when
quite small TO encourage its early
growth. The after culture il merely To
keep up . healthy growth and clear Of
weeds. When it comes into blossom
the heads should be broken down
about . foot Of the stalk. This
is done to keep the brush straight, and
early maturity. II should
be cut and housed before hard frosts.
Cut with 10 or IL inches Of stem. and
keep straight and one way; carry 1t TO
the barn or shed. and spread it thinly
open racks, or frames. When well
dried it should be Invested Of Its seed,
and the cleaned brush tied In small
bundles, TO await making up. Differ
ent modes are adopted by different iDdi-
yiduals TO clean the brush. II only .
small quantity is grown, and old tow
hatchel can be used To clean of the
seed, or q board set edgewise, between
which and . short piece Of board,
edged with . piece of shoet-iron. held
in the hand, the brush u passed, or
some other device; but where large
quantities are produced, some ma
chinery, like Mountaineering machine,
is used. In order that uoc may At
tend the ripening Of broom corn in
New England, early and continuous
growth must be encouraged, which may
be accomplished by careful, thorough
culture. The seed Is held in esteem ~
feed for stock, when ground. mixed
with other grain.-W. II. White, IN
