BROOM CORN ACREAGE.
Oklahoma Is Now Raising d Great
Deal CT the Article

Sterling. Kan. July 15.-The Bulletin,
discussing the corn acrew mfwyp upup
discussing the brOomcorn situation, says:
There is a boom on in the broomcorn
market. but the news viii hardly cause
a ripple in Sterling. as there is proba-
bly, not pound of the product now in
the hands Of the growers. The upward
movement is caused by the small stocks
on hand and the short acreage reported
from the sections which formerly were
depended upon for the big end of the
supply.
The acreage in this district is the small
est in twenty-five years. There has been
a gradual. but very marked decrease
since 1895. the year OF the big crop. This
year will show a decrease of ten per
cent over last year.
While the old districts are going out of
broomcorn craving. the newer lands to
the south are taking it up. In Illinois the
movement IS from the old Central district
TO the lower portions of the tate.s while
in Kanas the crop is migrating to Okla
hon-
Broonlcorn can't hold its own in a
country where wheat and Indian cern
get foothold. 1t has been our big wheat
acreage that has gradually been driving
out the broomcorn. What land / sleft
after the wheat is in, now goes to Indian
corn. This latter crop is easier to handle.
and more satisfactory to market than
one which depends too much upon the
needs of a few manufacturers for a mar
ket
To show the relative importance Of
Rice county's principal crops it is only
necessary to give this years acreages:
Corn, %, 353 acres; broomcorn, 1919 acres.

AlGER MAKES REPLY.
Harper's Weekly Asserts That Gov
eminent Was Defrauded


Detroit July 15.-United States Senator
Russell H. Alger gave out the following
interview tonight in regard TO an editorial
published in the current issue OF Har-
per's Weekly. charging practically that
during the time Senator Alger was sec
rotary of war the government was de-
trauded out OF millions of dollars OF army
contracts:
If there was any corruption in the
war department during the time when
was secretary, or if there was any reason
for thinking that there might be such
corruption. 1 know nothing OF It. and 1
do not believe there was any such cor
ruption.
The assertion made here is a very
broad one and the men who make the
charges and the paper that publishes
them will be held 10 the strictest &C
countability
Il hope that the matter will be investi-
gated TO the very bottom. in order that
the facts may be fully demonstrated.
Il did not even know that any glove
contracts had been made Matters Of
detail of that kind were left to subordi-
nate officials and I suppose that many
minor contracts were made without being
submitted to the head Of the department
during the time when the army was being
modified and when there was a great
mass Of business to be attended to-
However. I believe that the men who
purchased the supplies duriuy my admin
istration were honest conscientious and
efficient as any set Of officials who ever
served in the war department"
