ON BROOM INDUSTRY
THIS YEAR BROOM CORN CROP
 IS A GooDLY ONE.
Central Illinois Raises Quality and ouantity-oklahoma Now Forg-
 ing Ahead-Cultivation and q, Manufacture.

Broom corn will flourish in only cer- tain limited localities, is not, as we ig- norantly supposed, crop that can be counted on in all the corn states. Illi- nois is the great broom corn center; this state furnishes broom material for full half the world.
 It was back in 1860 that Illinois be- gan the growing of what has proved very valuable crop, one Col Cofern that year bringing from Tennessee some broom corn seed and planting it on his farm in Douglas county. The little experiment was successful, and neighboring farmers tried their luck with broom corn. An article in the Chicago Chronicle, which gives us much information about the broom in eustry. tells something of the result of the introduction here of the broom corn seed:
 Within a few years Illinois became known as the premier broom corn state of the country. Since then Okla

Within a radius of 30 les in Douglas county fs grown the corn from which practi- cally all the bes; brooms in the world gre made. and this district is still re- gsrded as the national source of sup ply. A coony of Swedes took up the cultivation Of broom corn in Knox county. after | had been made a suc- cess in Dougias. ana the swedes in- tIoduced it later into Kansas From Kansas the cultivation extended south .nto okIehoma. and in the last fyo years the crop has increased In a re- narkahle manner"

Receivers from Operation.

What is believed to be breaking
Of the world s record for quick recov-
cry from an appendicitis operation
has been made by Ward Converse, a
well-known young man of jackson.
Mr.. Converse was operated upon at
a private residence on Sunday morn
ing, July 2, at IL O'Clock am, and
just nine days later, he was out on
the streets again, apparently as well
as ever. The operation was perform
ed by DR.. julius Crisler, who states
that it is the quickest recovery he
knows of in medical annals, append
citis patients invariably remaining In
bed at least eleven days while the
average is usually about three weeks.
and often much longer.

Mississippi Is Ahead.

Mr.. P. K Whitney, financial agent
Of the Cotton Association Of the state
Of Mississippi, says that this state has
contributed more literally to the sue
cess of the farmers movement than
has any other. When the executive
committees of the several states met
at Memphis a few days ago it was
found that Mississippi had the largest
membership roll and that she had
money IN her treasury while there
were Others who had not collected near
enough to pay their way to date. Mr..
Whitney says that great many Of
the farmers of the delta, the oil mills
and the banks of the state have all
contributed literally, some of them
giving fifty dollars, many twenty-five,
and one bank, that at Clarksdale,
500.

Mississippi Monuments.

At the annual meeting of
the Mississippi division of the United
Confederate Veterans, which has beer
announced by Maj-Gen. Robers Low
ry, the State commander, to be held
In Jackson during the autumn, prob
ably in September, a memorial will De
drafted and a committee appointed tic
go before the legislature at its nexi
session and urge an appropriation fo1
the purpose for erecting monuments
to the memory of the Mississippi
troops who were in the defense of
Vicksburg during the memorable seiee
of 1863. The Confedate leaders Of the
State believe that this is a duty al
ready too long neglected, and they
will insist that action be taken at the
next session. 1t is understood that the
memorial committee will be instructed
to address letters to the members of
the legislature prior to the converting
of the session to secure from them
pledges to vote and work for the sup
port of the bill, and an effort will be
made to pass it early in the session
In order that it will not be sidetrack-
ed in the final rush of appropriation
bills.

the Past Week and Reviewed in
Brief.
Farmers Institute.

The State Farmers Institute and
Industrial Convention at Starksville is
growing IN interest and in attendance
Great enthusiasm has been created by
the splendid addresses that have been
made. Director w. l. Hutchinson
made most excellent presentation of
the work of the Experiment Stations
and enlisted the cooperation of every
teacher and farmer present. He show
ed clearly that the Experiment Sta
ton IN one item was saving the far
mers of Mississippi more than two
hundred Thousand dollars a year, that
Of economical use of fertilizers. The
address of Mr.. Elliott, farmers in
stltute specialist, of Canada, was very
much enjoyed, and it showed clearly
how the farmers of Canada under very
adverse conditions have worked out
profitable and progressive system
of agriculture. 1t was his opinion
that the farmers of the South could
take possession of any market to
which they directed their attention
Prof. Rawl, of the Department of Ag-
1dcuture, who has been detailed as
daily specialist in the South, is a
graduate of Clemson College, S. c.,
and has been teaching in the South all
of his life. He is enthusiastic, and un-
doubtedly will help the dairy interest
of this section. Prof. Moore, of the
dairy department of this institution
made a splendid impression upon his
audience. The address of the day
however, was delivered by DIR. Spill
man on "Diversi6cation in the
South. - Dr. Spillman showed that a
one-crop system has led to ruin and
poverty wherever practiced. He not
only pointed out the strength of di-
versifcation, but he pointed the way
to dlyerSificatiOn.
