Growers Of Broom Corn.

By observing the following rules
carefully, growers of broom corn
will handle, seed and bale their
crops in a manner that will assist
in bringing them the very highest
market price.
Whereas, many growers of
broom corn deliver their crops i'm
properly seeded and baled.
Therefore be it resolved, By the
National Association of American
Broom Manufacturers, broomcorn
dealers and brokers, in convention
assembled in Chicago, this 4th day
of April, 1911, that we adopt the
following rules for the proper
handling of broomcorn:
Rule 1.-All standard variety,
or cut broomcorn, must be cut so
that the stalks do not exceed six
inches in length.
Rule 2.-All seed, boots, leaves
and trash should be removed from
the broomcorn.
Rule 3,-Broomcorn must not
be baled until it is thoroughly
cured and dried, and there must
be nothing but thoroughly cured,
dry broomcorn put in the bales
separately.
Rule 4.-All broomcorn must be
bound by five smooth, soft wires,
not heavier than No. 10, and not
lighter than No. IL, American
guage, and must have, in addition,
four cross wires on the four sides
of the bales, securely fastened to
the end wires.
Rule 5. = Every broomcorn
grower and dealer must place
tag on each bale, bearing the name
and address of the grower.
Penalty A - Baling up seed,
trash and foreign substances with
broomcorn and marketing it as
broomcorn being a criminal Of
fence under the statutes of the
state, the owners and those assist
ing in improper seeding and bal
ing may be prosecuted to the full
extent of the law. Any prosecu-
ton brought under the foregoing
rules will have the full support OF
the National Association of Broom
Manufacturers, and also of all
broomcorn dealers and brokers.
Be it further resolved, That the
president appoint a committee tC
give these resolutions the widest
publicity by publication in trade
and local papers, periodicals ant
newspapers, and by placarding
same in all of the principal broom.
