Concerning Broom Corn.

HUMBOLDT, KANSAS, Feb. 10.
lola REGISTER:
There being so many inquiries about
broom corn, and the prospect of crop
this year, / have thought best to ans
wer all through the columns of the
REGISTER.
1 believe this will he good and
profitable year to grow broom corn
provided you always take pains to
care for and handle in the proper man
ner. otherwise there is no money in
the business.
Now my reasons for saying "Plant
broom corn" are these: The old stock
is all out of the way or nearly SO. At
this date there is not over ten car
loads in the State, compared with
three hundred a year ago and accord
ing to estimates there is only enough
in the United States to last until May.
The next fall will open active and at
good price, say from seventy-five to
one hundred dollars per ton for good
smooth green stock.
How much shall each Que plant.
Now here is the stickler. Don't land
we mean it, plant any more than you
can keep clean while growing, and
any more than you can cut clean and
put ia shed when ready. l have new
er seen crop cut too green and not
one out of every hundred cut as soon
as ready.
If you who make it a business to
grow broom corn would cut it while
I the blow is on and while the brush is
green it will sell for more money and
will weigh more than after seed is ripe
Never cure with the seed on the
brush. You can not have good brush
and save the seed,
What kind shall you plant? Well,
now, we don't represent any seed
house that does not carry the Stand
ard, Evergreen California Golden,
aud Dwarf, and don't buy any other
kind of seed. Any of the three varie-
ties above named are good.
/ In the Mcpherson district they
grow the Standard variety, in the
Sterling district most all is Dwarf
and after pulling first shoots they
go over the second time. After this
they let all seed, and then cut for feed
with self binder or moving machine
Ihave seen this feed sell in Sterling
Kansas at five dollars per ton and
four to six tons per acre. If you get
nothing but the feed this would sure
ly pay.
This last crop started to move al
sixty dollars per ton and is now sell
ing at one hundred and twenty pei
ton. With all these facts before you
l surely think you would be safe ii
planting broom corn. Plant early
cut early, sell early and get the best
price. JAMES PEERY.
