Broom corn is IN easy crop to raise
and grows very rapidly, although the
plant is rather tiny when it first comes
up then is where it requires the most
attention so that grass and weeds do
not get the start of it. In Ohio we
plant the seed in May four or five to
the hill, hills about foot apart in the
row and the rows about four feet apart,
so as to cultivate with horse
I do not know just when the best
time would be to plant here in Florida,
but along about the proper time for
planting field corn, I would think.
The object in planting thick in the
row is to get more and finer brush for
broom making, and [ consider the ever
green variety the best, as the brush
grows finer and is more likely to be
greener than most other kinds.
The dwarf variety grows the finest
brush, but a sheath generally covers so
much Of the brush that in rainy weather,
when it is maturing, water will settle in
behind the sheath and drown or spoil
much of the best brush
The seed from an acre of broom corn
will produce large amount of grain
md is one of the best feeds for poultry
and is also good for stock. Horses and
COWS are very fond of it.
The brush from an acre of broom
corn will make from 1000 to 1900

FIorida's Palmetto Leaf Industry.

In advices from Hamburg concerning
the market for palmetto leaves from the
Southern States the American consul
says:
According to an estimate of the lead
ing German importer, who himself
handles about 100 tons per annum (4O0
cases of 400 kilos or $50 pounds each),
the total imports into Germany of palm
and palmetto leaves approximate 200 to
$50 tons, almost all of which are via
Hamburg and from Florida. No separ-
ate official statistics for these articles
are available The goods are shipped
from Fenandina, as we'll as from New
York and Baltimore, and are used ex-
cluslvely for the manufacture of arti-
fetal palms. Small quantities of palm
leaves are also imported from Cuba, but
these are used for the manufacture of
straw-hat braids only.
"The shipments are consumed in Ger
many, and are also distributed in Rus
sia, Austria, and Switzerland. The busl-
ness is done on firm orders, with pay
ments cash against documents Some
times advance payments are made to the
shipper to enable him to pay wages. 1t
is trade in which the foreign importer
must have confidence in and rely upon
the collectors of the leaves in the
United States.
'The business is one that can not be
extended to any extent, and it would be
unwise to overstock the market by con-
signnents. The firms handling the arti-
Gle appear not to be capable of handling
larger quantities than they order regu-
larly. The local importers sell direct
to the consumer, with almost no busi-
ness through brokers'"

almost every case the oranges SO treated
developed the rot in two or three weeks,
while III the laboratory at about 65 de-
grees F. When cultures were placed on
parts of the oranges other than the stem
ends, no infection resulted, except when
a cut or abrasion had been previously
made.
1. That oranges already affected with
the rot may spread the disease to sound
fruits has been shown by placing pieces
of rotted fruits upon the stem ends of
sound oranges. The oranges so treated
developed the rot in the same manner as
did those on which only the fungus had
been placed. Pieces of diseased oranges
placed on parts Of sound fruit other than
the stem ends caused no infection.
2. That the soil may be the means Of
infection was shown by placing sound
oranges, and small portion of soil

tree, together in water for "a hours.
They were then wrapped in paper, and

Suggestions.
The following suggestions as to
remedial measures are based on Our
study and experiments to date: CD All
dropped fruits should be picked up and
destroyed, as they are liable to infect the
soil and other fruits. CD All fruits on
the trees showing softening at the stem
end should be removed and destroyed,
as these, too, are liable to infect others.
(3) AS an additional preventive the
fruit on the trees should be sprayed
with ammoniacal solution of copper car

is: 5 ounces copper carbonate, and 3
pints of ammonia (26 degrees), to so

Broom Corn Culture.
By E. M. Graves.

I am in receipt of your favor inquir-
ing about my experience in raising
broom corn in Ohio and some advice in
regard to growing it in Florida. I know
that broom corn does we'll in Ohio, and
is one Of the most profitable crops
grown there but as to how we'll it will
do in Florida I do not know [ judge,
however, that from the small quantity

will grow Indian corn, and [ intend to
grow some just as soon as I can get in

In November, a serious rot of citrus
fruits was described in Press Bulletin
131, under the name of "Stem-End Rot"
By "stem-end' is meant the place where
the stem joins the fruit. Since that time
Investigations have been carried on to
learn the nature of the rot, in order that
in the future the disease may be success
fully combated.
The fruit first begins to soften and
sink little round the stem end, without
the rind changing color. There is no
blackening nor molding at first and the
rind remains intact over the softened in
terror. The rot proceeds inward along
the fibers of the rag, and then outward
into the pulp cells. At first both the in
side and outside of the fruit remain al
most unchanged in color; but, as the
softening goes on, the rind turns dull
brown. Finally the rag and the pulp
cells are disintegrated, and the entire
fruit becomes soft and mushy Early in
the development of the rot, small white
specks are seen in the pulp. These are
similar to those produced by freezing, or
by the blue mold
This rot usually occurs on full-sized
fruits after they have co1ored. Though
the softening may begin while the fruit
is still hanging on the tree, it usually
develops after the fruit has dropped or
after it has been picked. In groves
where the disease was most prevalent it
was estimated that from 10 to so per
cent of the fruit had dropped. Some of
this dropping was due to withertip or
other causes, but in many cases large
percentage of the dropped fruit devel-
oped stem-end rot while lying on the
ground. In one instance 80 per cent of
the grapefruit were estimated to have
dropped from this cause In other places
the percentage was smaller, there being
only from 1 to per cent of the fruit
affected
But the dropping and rotting of the
fruit i'll the grove is not the end of the
trouble. The rot may develop on fruit
that to all appearances was perfectly
sound when packed, and make itself ap-
parent on arrival at the market Reports
have been received of shipments of or
angeS having from one to eighteen per
cent of the fruit affected by stem-end
rot on arrival at New York
Cause.
The direct cause of the stem-end rot
has been shown by laboratory expert
ments to be the growth of species of
fungus which appears to belong to the
genus known as Achlya. 1t is closely
related to the water-molds, and re-
sembles in many respects the fungus
causing the brown rot of lemons in
California Our experiments indicate
that this fungus infects the orange only
at the stem end This was shown by
placing pure cultures of this fungus up

INDIANA AND IOWA.

Des Moines will welcome today a
large and representative body of men
who have come from Indiana to study
into conditions west of the Mississippi
and incidentally into the Des Moines
plan of city government.
Because they did not know the Des
Moines of three years ago they will
not appreciate to the full the change
that has been made. But as they look
at the street lights. the Coliseum, the
beginnings of the new city hall, the
east river bank being cleared, and
hear of the Y. NJ. c. A. campaign and
of the other assured improvements of
the near future, they will know that
Des Moines has been doing something
in the past year or two.
There are certain unmistakable
signs of live city that we flatter our
selves are plainly to be discovered in
Des Moines.
It may please our visitors to know
that it was the example of Indian
apolis, their own capital city, that
first fred the ambition of Des Moines.
Indianapolis, like Des Moines. is an in
land capital. the commercial center of
a state not wholly unlike Iowa in re-
sources, owing its great and sudden
development to a net work of inter-
urban and steam railroads. What has
happened at Indianapolis was plainly
possible to Des Moines. Why not then
take advantage of the opportunity?
Des Moines expects the same net
work of interurbans and the same
consequent growth.
II in return for the inspiration we
have drawn from the capital of In
diana, we can give the Hoosiers a hint
or two In the matter of city govern
ment. the exchange will be fair to
everybody, and Indiana and Iowa can
side by side step to the front in
leadership of this middle west.-Des

AN ANSW Err.

In the Indianapolis Star Of Jan. 10th
appeared an article under the above
heading signed by a Friend For the
Friendless. Richmond. Ind, and being
personally interested with others for
the reclamation of 'inebriates' l will
endeavor to reply to the above article
which is also printed with this letter.
Presenting that the friend for the
friendless is one of that unfortunate
class, he must always bear in mind
that he himself, is largely to blame
for his present condition and not
wholly the dispenser Of strong drink,
If he were to control his own personal
weakness in not giving way to sell
fish and unnatural appetite for the
flowing bowl he would not have to
walk the streets these cold nights, etc.
If the friend for the friendless is will
ing to work and keep himself straight.
he can get started on the road to self
keep and independence, as several
men in this city are now doing.
An appeal was made in the local pa
pers recently for $1,000 with which to
establish a home for the purpose of
helping that class of men, but loth-
ing has come of it as yet.
The scheme we are inaugurating
and under which we have some men
working now. is this, the man signs
contract for us to receive whatever
wages he may receive for stated per-
iod. then we take him to a doctor.
who is interested in this work with
US and he makes a thorough examin-
alton of him as to his physical condi-
ton and prescribes for him according
ly, then We find him work and a
boarding house, We also get whatever
he needs in the way of clothing, etc.
and make an accounting to him at
any and all times he wishes OF his
money.
The next step we hope to take is To
secure a. home to which any and ali
tons to reform, where they may re-
ceive constant suggestions from their
environment whereby they may be-
come respectable American citizens.
While this movement would have a
wider field of operation in a larger
city, where there would be more avail
able material to work on, yet We have
plenty here to experiment with.
Ten men earning a dollar and a
half day would net such an insti-
tuition forty-five hundred dollars a
year. so it will be seen that after phil
anthropy had launched the ship 1t
would reach port without further help.
l am sorry my friend for the friend

have been only too glad to have got
into immediate touch with him.

FROM NECESSITIES TO LUXURIES

FROM NECESSITIES TO LUXURIES
Concentration of study on the high
cost of living is bringing out some
very interesting suggestions from ex-
perts on political economy. One fac
tor in the problem that has been prac.
tically lost sight of Is emphasized
among other and more familiar causes
by Prof Ralph H. Hess of the depart
ment of economics and political science
at the university of Minnesota, who
dwells in an interesting and instructive
way upon the economic effect of with
drawing large portions Of the popula-
ton from production of staple CON-
modities for the purpose Of engaging
in the manufacture aud distribution of
luxuries.
An enormous number of American
citizens, Prof. Hess argues, have been
melted by prosperity. not only to es-
chew useful production themselves.
but to create a demand for articles
ministering to their pleasure, so that
indirectly the loss Of useful commodi-
ties to society is considerable. though
the demand for those necessities Is in
no wise diminished, but is actually
augmented. He holds that the growth
of non productive leisure class in the
United States has been unusually
marked in recent years. so much SO
that In this feature of our national life
we doubtless far surpass the rather
pretentious efforts of all European
countries. with the possible exception
of England.
This is an economic fact of pro-
found significance, The reduction of
the effective labor power of the coun-
try is apparent. and the logical deduc-
ton implies contracted market sup
plies and increased prices. No CON-
prehensive statistics Of this movement
are available. but the tendencies are
well known and beyond doubt play an
important part in advance OF prices
A recent summary supporting to cover
the cost OF sport. minor diversion of
the leisure classes in Great Britain
