BROOM CORN SEED.


Tradition Says franklin Planted the
First One In This Country.
Every housewife is supposed to know
aow to handle broom, but it Is safe
to say that not one in ten has any
clear idea of what her sweeping utensil
is made Of or how it Is made or where
the material came from. Brooms are
made from the heads or brushes Of
the broom corn, first cousin to our
common field corn. And in this con-
nection is told very pleasant little
fairy story concerning Benjamin
Franklin. Poor Richard" by the
way, seems to have been about the
biggest jack of all trades that ever
helped the United States to become the
richest and most powerful nation Of
the world. If this story is true, he is
the patron saint of the housewife and
the broommaker. as well as q kite
dier, lightning catcher, printer, pub.
fisher, editor, author. philosopher,
statesman and other things ''too nu-
merous to mention"
Broom. corn first grew In India. From
there 1t was carried to Europe. The
story goes that DIR. Franklin was ex-
amining whisk broom that had been
brought over from England in the
days before we.had any broom corn Of
our own. He; found a. single seed on
the broom. picked It off. planted 1t and
raised stalk OF corn from which is
+ descended, SO, to speak, all of the
broom corn of the United States.
I However this may be, broom corn
grows much like Its first cousin, our
maize, which originated here. The
head is larger, however, and the seeds
grow on the bead instead of in ears.
The heads are cut of. leaving about
six inches of stalk, and the seeds are
scraped of by q machine, which does
clean job and does not injure the pam
icles. The seeds are valuable in a
way. They are fed to horses and poul-
try and ground into meal for cattle.
In the making Of the brooms. the corn
is put around handle of Eastwood
or soft maple turned in a lathe. Each
layer is wound tight with Irvine or
wire until the desired size is attained.
The broom is then pressed out fat and
sewed to keep 1t in that shape. Whisk
brooms are made in the same way
