Broom Corn,

1t is early yet to consider 1910
crops, but better plan early than
too late. In this connection we
want to urge broom corn for the
leading money crop 1t is easily
grown, natures and is ready
for market sooner than most
cropsj and will do about as well
on sod as on old ground. It is
worth big money now and is
likely to be very little cheaper
another year than it is at pres
emit. Arrangements are being
made by some of our business
men to get a good supply of
seed and we hope to see a big
crop of it planted. 1t was a
winner in the early days of Ok
lahoma, and is largely planted
in that state even yet. 1t stands
drouth as well as any crop
grown, and there is no doubt
that it it adapted to this soil.
Farmers need a crop that will
bring cash, and in our opinion
broom corn is the answer. BY
planting at intervals you can
have your harvest begin in July,
and continue until frost-and it
is cash on the paddle whenever
you have it ready for market.
There is no crop easier to raise
and to handle, and it brings
from $50 to 5000 per ton. 1t
takes ordinarily from four to
rive acres to yield a ton Of brush.
The stalks make good FODDER.

DIAMOND TIRES HELD IN
HIGH REGARD AT SHOWS

The sociability run held by the Syracuse Au-
tonobile club was participated in by eighty
three cars. An interesting feature was the de-
cided preference for Diamond tires, as shown
nv the count on equipment. There were TWEEN
weight entrants and two official cars on
diamond tires a lead of thirteen sets over the
nearest competing make. The equipment on
the balance Of the cars was divided among
eleven different makes
one Of the most remarkable Instances OF
tire service in the San Ieandro endurance run
was that given by the Diamond tires that
enuipped the Cartercar. These tires had al
ready covered 20)0 miles, but In spite Of this
they finished the 130Q-nIle grind with abso-
lutely no trouble,
A pretty good index TO the repute in which
the various makes Of tires are held is the eS-
tent to which they are used by manufacturers,
dealers and others most thoroughly versed in
what is what in motor car equipment. Be
cause of this the Diamond Rubber company
has always placed emphasis on the percentage
of their tires that equip cars displayed in auto
mobile shows.
A count was made at the Oakland show on
the opening night for purposes OF determining
fust what percentage of the different tires
eouiped the exhibits. II was found that out Of
133 gasoline cars wearing pneumatic tires 4h
wore Diamonds. This gives the Diamond 36
per cent of the entire number. The next near
est make Of tire equipped hut 26 cars-thus Civ
inc the Diamond a lead Of 1877 per cent over
their next nearest competitor. The Diamonds
we're also found to equip more cars than the
aext three highest makes combined
