Directions for the Cnltlration of Broom Corn. .The following articles on the cultivation 'of Broom Corn are published for the benefit of all persons who may dewre to cultivate a crop : the present -w ' . 1 1 i" J year, in using ine curecuons aue allowance must, be .maao ,ior tne dif ference in soil and climate: - ; A comiaunicatlon made by Mr. William Allen, of Northampton, Ma3s.. to Mr. ' H. I'. 'Ellsworth, Commissioner of Patentn. . -..-.; ....-.;.. Of the senus rahum (broom-grasn) there are four or five species. ,borghum saccharatum is the broom-corn, abundantly cultivated.in this country both for the seed and tor . its' large panicles, which" are made into ."the brooms. The whole plant is saccharine. ' Attempts have been made in France to, extract sugar from it, but with little success. , ' ' .i Of the wrghumsaccliamtwni iot jmcug'$avehdretvs), brfom-ff)rn there are 6?eral varieties raised in Hampshire countv.. Massachusetts, in the valley M of the tonrietticur river, - principally, in the broad meaqows or the isorthiampton'' Hadley" and Hatfield. '' The, Pine tree ra resianieu aB. iue iiuyicai. ainu or , ine least vuiiiejju jui cultivation yet, as'it is '.earnest,. " (being-three weeks eaflidr than; the large kind), in a shdrt season', when ts seedj will ' ripen, "while the'eed's Jof.lh other kind fail ,16"' ripen,1;,thisi'rnay, prove the most profitable crop. The North river crop is ordinarily: the.best crop;' it is ten days . earlier than .the large kind, and yields ' about, 'jTZQ pounds of the brush' ;pef; " aerer-the brusli meaninjr the dried panicles. cleaned ot the seed, with six. or eight inches ot thestaiK. lnexsew Jersey,. or large' kihd, ' yields a" thousand ,,'or, eleven hundred pounds, of brusK.'per acre. The stalks and seeds arte .larger. In ffood seasons, this 4 is ' tha most profitable crop.' But in the present season (1842), owing to an early .1 frost (about September 23), much of the accu wi wis. tiuu nui iaj tut ucu. There is also 'the shirley', or black brush.. ' Soil rich, alluvial lands are best adapted for the broom'-eorn, more especially1 if warmly 1 situated,' pro tected by hills, and manured. y Method " of ' pxantingy The broom corit is planted in: rows, "about twdj and a half or' three ' feet, apart; bo tliatJ a ' horser '.may ' pass between them" with"a;)low,, of cultivatoryor harrow. The hills' in' each f 0w are from eighteen; inches to two feet apart or farther, according to the quality ot th soil;"' lhe quantity ot seed to be planted is ' estimated5 very'- differently bj 'different fatniera' Kome'ay tha$ half a" peck is . enough' per acre,1 while 'others plant, half bnshel'and'dOtoe a bushel, i in order' to : -ma It ft it'.1 sure that the,; landr ihall1 be" well stdeked.' mer ruie wiio soipe is xo cast a ieaspoonfulv or 'thirty .far forty seeds 'in a Tiill 7 the manure at fhe time of plant ing Bhouid be put into the hill, and old manureOr compost is :preferred,' as being most free from worms; - uultivation. '-- i ne Droom-corn should" be' plowed.5 and hoed three times1 the last time when about three feet high, though some hoe, it when it is six feet high, and when, they are concealed by it as they are toiling in tne neia. lae uumuer ui giants in a .i r i , . mi. i . . i? .,.11 . r hill shouW ' be' from everr to ten. If there are only, five; Or six', stalks, they will be large and coaiser:' if there are about ! eight,' the; brush will be finer and more valuable. In the first hoeing,1; the J supernumerary ' stalks should be pulled up. -' ' ' " ' ' '.y Harvesting.- As the frost kills the eetid, the broom-corn is harvested at the commencement "of the first frost.- The long stalks are bent down at two or two and a half feet from the ground, and by laying - those of tw6 tows across each other obliquely," a kind of table is: made : by every, two rows, with a passage between each table for the convenience of harvesting. 'After ; that the brush is cut, leaving of - the stalk from si to eight inches.1 As it is cut it is spread on the tables, still farther to dry that is, if the weather ia fair. Care should )e taken the brush should not be exposed to rain or"damp weather after it is cut. As it. is carried into the barn some bind it in Bheaves; and this is a great convenience for the further operation 'of ' extracting the seed." Others throw the brush into the cart wagons,1 unbound. "' ; ScRAPiNdThe process of extracting the seed is' called ."scraping thc( brush." Two iron horizontal scrapers are prepared one movable, to be introduced, between them. The upper scraper is then pressed down with one hand, and the brush drawn through with the other, the seed-being scraped off. This is the old method. A newly invented scraper is succeeding the old one. It is an upright instrument, of elastic wood or steel, inserted in a bench of a convenient height for the operator. A quantity of brush is taken in the hand, and brought down upon the top of thi instrument. As it is forced down, and drawn toward the body, it separates the elastic sticks from the central piece, but their elasticity firesses sufficiently on the brush so, hat the seed is scraped off. The advantage of this scraper is, . that both hands may be applied to the brush, instead of only one hand, as in the other kind, and the elastic power of nature is substituted for the. pressure of one of the hands.'' The' instrument also seems to double the scraping surface. The instrument was invented fat Hartford- . I have been told that it has been patented. V , A common crop ii 70Oto 800 'lbs.,' per acre. There have bee' raised 1,000 and 1,100 lbs., per acre, with 9Q to 100 bushels 'ot seed; The large kind grows eleven feet high.

If the stalks are cut off- before jthe

seed is ripe,, they are better, stronger, more durable, than at- cut alter the see.i is ripe. The seed i3 used, for feeding horses, cattle .and .swine. , It is ground and mixed, with , Indian meal, and is regarded1 ari excellent food it weighs forty pounds a bushel. From the Rural New Yorker. , u . Editors Rubal New. Yorker: Ia your issue of January 7th, I notice an inquiry m regard to the culture and value of broom corn. Not seeing any answer from our celebrated broom raisers, I wil answer to the best, of my ability, premising 'that, although not in that business. I am somewhat familiar with it in all its details. ; ; -In the first place, the ground should be dry and rich; the same conditions of soil being required, as for Indian, corn. ' After the ground is plowed and thoroughly pulverized, it must be marked out in rows", -three feet apart one way, and eighteen inches the, other. . The rows should be perfectly straight, if possibte a,s this- will enable the m05t of the cultivation to be done; With a horse.:,-'Ilant at the' season, for, planting maize, dropping from sii ; to, eight kernels , in, ,a , hill,;; an.4 , coVet about an inch deepi ,' .i . ; - As:so6n as it appears above'grounct put On a handful, of -ashfes,' or ashes and. plaster mixed. ; if the. ground is not rich, enough, vwithQut, such. top-J uressiug. ia aDoui, on wees, ine horse and! ciiltiv'atof can be started, and the first hoeing performed:' Great care, is reqwlred'toSo' this weB- if thd ground is weedy, it .isnhard trfdiitit-i gush ' the broom cori from, ".pigeon gras, corn 'grass";" and similar coarse weeds-Mf the ' weeds are left, ' the corn gets.stunted, and never will recuperate..; The ...corn, should jbe thinned when hoed, the second time. to five stalks in the hill, , and the cul- . tivator should oe busily employed to keep ; the ground mellow and ! free irom weeds. ; ,il' .;-t j i After the seed is, sayne-half out of the milk, the 'corn may be iab)ed and ! cut. The ; tabling "ia performed by.,walking: between the rowa;: and bmdinror breaking the -hills in each row,, alternately, toward ahd .across the other row, behind the fables; or, as some do it, 'go backward between the rows, breaking the hills-down, alternate! v. as before! across each other. i at an 'angle with the, row, oC 45 de grees.'. I he tops will then usually reach ibver the table about far enough to -cut. . easily.'; The table should. 'be sixteen, or, eighteen inches high, in Order that the cutter may not be obliged toi stoop too much at his work. A shoemaker's 'broad,' thin' knife, ia the best to cut with.' I, The cutttng is .performed.by taking hold of the brush pr topsK ana- cutting tne tsiaiK aooui eight inches' from thd brush. ' It requires much skill and practice to cu.t Tapidly and. easily-1 -The brush should be left for a few days on the tables, to dry thoroughly it. is. jthea bound . jq bundles ;and housed.' Th seed can be sdraped off at anytime' 'W"hen 'cpnvenientui ' Good; seed' ;ia worth. :for feeding purpqsei, about the same as data.,, t...-.,.!.B a,.-- v'.)r'f ... I dd not know the exact cost of raising', but it is just about double the work that it is to raise aise.' : The average crop per acre, on good Hand; is 1,000 pounds,' M;Rich,. well-cultivated land, will give-1,500 pounds per acre.; The crop is under the control :0f the cultivator as much as is Indian corn, and good farmers . will always get good, crops, . The best fertilizer is good barn-yard manure to be applied as for Indian'corn. The stalks are usually plowed under for manure; but few take pains to pull the fodder, as used to be the custom: in the Southwest. Probablv the best way to do this is to let the' cows into the field, tor an hour each day, f alter the brush ia harvested, and let them pull their own fodder. ,, It ia equal to the i fame sorghum, or to "sowed corn." for the purpose' of increasing the yield of milk, as long as it lasts. ' 1 '; ' nWe would advise fanners to plant large crops'as- it is one that pays well, and for which they will always find a ready market. . MILLINER Y.
