the plan To raise broom corn i'm the
copper country is possible ana offering

corn is raised extensively in Illinois

well in this district.
Mr. Price plans 10 experiment, Ii
successful, the industry of raising
>broom corn may be taken up and made
one of the foremost products of the
district The blind miners at Calu-
met make brooms, but are forced to
purchase their raw material from some
other state. If the industry becomes a
success in the copper country they will
be enabled to make their brooms more
cheaply and hence reduce the cost of
The family broom.
Mr. Phillips informed Mr.. Price that
broom corn will make" i'm from -

ful supply of moisture and as there are
no droughts in the copper country this
fact is i'm favor of the crop DrouEhts

able.
In Illinois the corn is raised by ten

raise the crop. The chief expense is
the hiring of help to plant and cult

can be made "A benefit to the people
