Broom corn is likely, Gays an ex.
change, at no distant day to revolu-
tionize the breadstutf supply of the
world. A process has been discover.
ed by which the finest and most de-
licious -four can be made from the
seed to the extent Of onc-half its
weight, and leave the other half u
valuable food for making beef and
milk. The average yield per acre is
three hundred bushels, and in many
instances FIVE hundred bushels, or
thirty thousand pounds, have been
secured. Nor does it exhaust the
soil as Indian corn, from the fact
that it feeds from the deeper soil,
and assimilates its food from cru.
der state. 1t belongs to the same
genus as the sweet cane, commonly
known as sorghum, which as an ar
ticle of food is growing rapidly in
public esteem, and from the seed of
which most nutritious flour can be
obtained.
