PRICE or Broom CORN
HIGHEST EVER KNOWN.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 2o.-The
highest prices ever known are being
paid for broom corn this year.
Brooms that sold a year ago for 20
cents now cost As and So While the
yield in the Kansas Oklahoma broom
corn district has been unusually large,
there seems to have been a crop fail
ure in other districts, and buyers are
fiocking here for their supplies Last
week as high as s172.5O ton was
paid for first quality broom, but this
week the price has advanced to
$227.5O. John Roverton paid that
price ton for the whole crop Of j..
g. Cox Of Texhoma, Okla. At those
prices broom corn VIII bring more
than 800 an acre profit on land which
is scarcely At for anything else.
Broom corn usually is grown in the
sandhills district, which receives only
a little rain and which will not grow
common crops without irrigation.

A Costly Mile.

The new Washington street subway.
Boston, which passes through the
heart OF the shopping district, is con-
sidered to be the most costly mile of
underground railway in the world. It's
construction and equipment has cost
$10,000,00o, or about $4,000 per lineal
foot. The first section of Boston's
modern system of rapid transit. con.
sisting OF subway tunnels, was opened
about fourteen years ago. This was
followed by the erection a few years
later OF the elevated road; and sub.
sequently to that the system was ex
tended by the construction of the East
Boston tunnel under the harbor. The
opening Of the Washington street
tunnel marks the latest, and one Of
the most important extensions.

Jersey,s Gamers.

Canning in New Jersey began about
seventy years ago, but it's great growth
has been during the last twenty-five
years, and perhaps the bulk of that
growth could be ascribed to the last
I ten or fifteen years. Not until var
ious machines for expediting the work
and reducing the cost were invented
was it found possible to develop the
industry to it's present Importance,
and as other machines are invented
the industry will assume greater i'm
portance.
b There are forty-two canning estab-
flishements in New Jersey, all but two
lsof which are in the southern counties.
/ Union has two, the rest are all fur
Ether south and most of them in Salem
and Cumberland This is due largely
to the fact that the season for growing
vegetables is bit longer there and
the development has been in accord
ance with the better opportunity for
obtaining the raw stock for canning.
p Thirty of the establishments are
|owned and operated by partnership
Tor by individual owners, and twelve
are managed by corporations. The
number of persons employed exceeds
1900, of whom 2,078 are men and g.
823 are women. The total selling val
ue of the goods canned in 1907 was
81, 1868, 1851, an increase of $681 ,943, as
compared with 1906, or 43 per cent. y
The vegetables packed in 1907 are
as follows: with the quantities in
pounds: Tomatoes, 5,379, lao; pump
kin, 1,329,228; squash, 459,444; lima
beans, 6,348,528; spinach, 1,230,0S4;
peas. 8,275,056; corn, $1,000: aspara
gus, 659,5S5; rhubarb, 695 ,448; sweet
potatoes, 496,S00; okra, 62,94O; okra
and tomatoes, 1886; beets, 642,782;
total, 71,649, $50.
Peaches and huckleberries disap-
peared entirely from the pack of 1907
while pineapples and gooseberries APP
peared for the first time. The great
est increase is in apples. The pack
of 1906 was 54,604 pounds. while that
for 1907 VISA 640,S00 pounds, an in
crease of nearly 100000 pounds.

Sister Mabel Clement. Signs"

Sister Mabel Clement. Signs" was
read by Brother Clarence Parks.
Some questions were asked concern
ing the garden, as follows: 'sAt what
stage of plant growth is it best to use
fertilizers ?" Answered by Brothers
Winfield Parks and Chas. H. Budd.
FERTILIZERS for plants in general
should be applied while the roots are
young. After they have hardened but
little plant growth will be developed
during the season.
Should rose bushes be pruned every
year? If so, when, and to what ex-
tent?' By all means prune the rose
bushes every year. Now is the time,
before new growth starts up. If you
desire superior quality instead of num-
bers of blooms the plants should be
cut back severely"
What kind of chemical fertilizer
should be used, and in what proportion
to produce the flowers of the violet
as well as long stems and rich foliage?
The violet fed moderately on pulver-
lied sheep manure will give an ample
supply cf very fine blooms on long
stems. Consult the advertising col
umns of House and Garden" for the
address of manufacturers of pulver-
lied sheep manure.
What is meant by Towering wood
shoots ~ The term is used to ex-
press the difference between flower
ing wood and blind wood shoots.
Plants grown from Towering wood
shoots give about three times the num-
ber of blooms per plant as do those
grown from blind wood shoots.
Some conundrums were asked by Bro
Champion Colby.

A Dog and an Egg.

farmer in western state possess
ed two dogs, a big one called Alice and
small one that was named Billy. AL
ice, greedy creature, was fond of fresh
eggs. When she heard hen cackle she
always ran to look for the nest One
day she found one under the fruit shed
But she could not get the egg because
she was too large to go under the shed
She went away and soon returned with
Billy, bringing him just before the
hole.
Billy was stupid and did not under
stand. Alice put her head in and then
her paws without being able to reach
the egg. Billy seemed to understand
what was wanted. He went under the
shed, brought out the egg and put il
before Alice, who ate it with great sat
isfaction, and then both dogs trotted
off ogether.-Chicago Tribune.

No BoVnties Paid For a Year.

There will be no bounties paid by
the state this year at least. Advice to
that effect has been received by the
county commissioners from the state
department, and the county officials
are preparing to act accordingly.
The order comes as the result of
the failure of the legislature to make
an appropriation for the payment of
bounties. From the appropriation
made for this purpose two years ago
there is deficiency due the State
and some of the counties, which re-
CURED special appropriation at
this legislature of $4,000 to cover.
The state out of the former ap-
preparation, had paid bounties up to
August l3, 1908, when the money
ran out. The deficiency has resulted
In the nine months since that time.
The fact that such large sum was
needed to meet this deficiency led TO
the legislature to discontinue the or
original appropriation and the
auditor generals department depayt-
ment has been forced to send out
notices to the various counties, that
the state VIII pay no more scalp
bounties.
Bradford county usually draws
good share of this annual revenue
lor Dountles on foxes and other
animals and the cessation of the
payment of these will largely effect
the trapping industry during the
winter.
