Standard Broom Corn
Use of broom corn.


 Broom corn is used for making brooms, brushes etc. Its foliage is not valuable for forage, but i; sometimes used for silage. but often is left in the field for graz. ing and green manure. Just the heads or brush being cut off. This way of harvesting is called head ing which is done with a small knife.
 Growing the crop.
 Broom corn requires practically the same culture treatment as other sorghUms and corn. The soil should be pIoughed about one fit. deep in Apache county, 1 should judge. This crop would be a fine one in Apache county, because of it's good drought re- sistance dwarf broom corn would be better for this locality because of it's good drouth resisting just mentioned. Broom corn should be planted like most sorghums.
 The seed should be obtained from private growerif possible.
 The broom corn thrasher is un- questionabIythe most undesirable source from which seed may be obtained, as seeds from all kinds and qualities of brush is mixed in thrashing. Like corn, broom is subject to smut. and should be treated for this disease before planting. FOrmaldihyde solution is good. mix one lb. of formaldi- hyde with 30 gallons of water, put the seeds in sacks and soak them in the solution for one hour then drain the sacks and spread the seeds on a clean floor or campus to dry. Do not put seed in a sack where seeds with smut have been, And plant immed- lately after treatment.
 The seeds may be planted with a lister or a corn planter fitted with special plates. F inch IS about the depth to SOW in. This crop should be cultivated often if there are many weeds. And the soil be kept good and loose so it will absorbe all the rain that falls.
 The demand for broom corn has remained about constant for the last 20 yrs and I believe it would be a paying crop. The

normal price of good brush is $.75 to $1.00 per ton and some times as high as $4OO per ton. The brush should be stored in a shed with no sides or ends.
 Follow the instructions and you raise the best of broom corn.

chief element In the cost Of production
has advanced 20 per cent since the ex-
isting rate OF 3T1z cents per square foot

Labor and other factors entering into
the cost Of production, the petition states.
has also advanced 10 per cent since the

Present rates. the company declares,

sion to grant a rate Of 60 cents per
square foot of radiation, nat rate. per
season, and declares a properly CO.
ordinated steam meter average rate is
$1.50 per 1000 square feet.

stitutional amendment.

The motion vas made by Speaker

tfon, without result, the house dropped
the motion and started to vote on the

scenes in the house chamber. The gal
leries and aisles were packed. The suf-
fragists. wearing their yellow badges,

NO COLLECTION OF
ASHES IN Is YEARS
Indianapolis Citizens Make
Complaint to Works Board.

Fifteen years residents living In the
Vicinity of Thirty sixth street and
Northwestern avenue have begged, plead
ed. petidoned and threatened various
city administrations for modern improve
ments, but have not even succeeded in
getting their ashes and garbage col
lected.
This, according to statements to
Times reporter. made by residents OF
the district who came before the board
OF public works today to protest against
the latest indignity heaped on their long
suffering shoulders in the form Of the
proposal Of the Terre Haute, Indianapo-
lis & Eastern Traction Company to move
hs interurban tracks right up TO their
very doors.
"I've lived at S712 Northwestern avenue
for almost twenty years and an ash col
lection route runs within 200 feet Of my
house, and never yet has the city col
lected any ashes or garbage from my
place" said z. F. Kissel.
What in the world do you do with
your ashes and garbage then ?" the re-
porter inquired
WHAT ELSE
COULD WE DO?"
What else can we do but dump them
IN the alley until they spread over into
the back yard and let them lay?" was
the response.
''You come out there and wen show
you an ashpile that is an ashpile.
There must be ten wagon loads at
least" Mr.. Kissel elaborated.
D. U. Robbins, who lives at 3525 Cres-
cent avenue. has Jared a little better than
some OF his neighbors, according to his
statements.
Sometimes" he said, when I fight
with the board of works for three or
four months they finally send wagon
and take my garbage and ashes.
Il cant see why they couldn't coll
lect it regularly when the collectors

my back yard"
The grievance which the delegation
brought before the board Of works lay
in rumors they had heard to the effect
that the traction company plans TO move
It's tracks from the present position on
the west side of Crescent avenue between
Thirty sixth and Thirty seventh streets
