EXPERIMENT STATION TO SEND
LECTURERS OVER THE
TERRITORY.
The Agricultural College Has Helped
Make the Institutes a Great Success
During the Summer and Will
Continue the Work.
Stillwater, Okla., Oct. 18-—The Okla-
homa Agricultural Experiment Station
has Issued the following bulletin:
The fourteenth annual report of the
agricultural experiment station at
Stillwater, Oklahoma, has been sent to
more than twenty thousand farmers
whose names are on the permanent
mailing list of the station. There yet
remain a few copies which will be sent
on request until the supply is exhaust-
ed.
The report contains a statement of
the courses of study which may be
pursued at the Oklahnma A. and M.
college, of which the experiment sta-
tion is a department. A detailed out-
line is given of the work of the school
of agriculture and domestic economy
consisting of two years of twenty
weeks each for young men and women
from the country. This year's work
will begin October 17, 1905. Infor-
mation is also given about the eight
weeks' courses in general agriculture
and dairying which will begin January
2, 1906, and the week's course In stock
judging and seed selection to be held
January 9 to 15, 190G.
The director In his report states the
purpose of the station and the influ-
ence which its researches have had
of the development of agriculture in
Oklahoma. A statement of the work
in progress shows that close attention
is being given to such matters as are
of most practical value to farmers.
A summary of press bulletins issued
by the station during the preceding
year completes the report. There are
articles on the following subjects:
Texas Fever Tlcl<s, Distribution tof
Vaccine for Blackleg, Protecting Ber-
muda Grass, Spelts or Emmer, Grow-
ing Cowpeas, Harvesting and Storing
Cowpea Seed, Corn Smut, Cultivating

stroying Insects and Fungi, and Pre-
servatives in Cream. Tables, supplied
by the Vnited States weather bureau
showing the annual precipitation at
the various stations In Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, are also included in
the report. Every farmer should pro-
cure this report and the other free
publications of the station.

News office.
OKLAHOMA
BROOM CORN
GOOD CROP
IF PROPERLY CARED FOR, THE
BROOM CORN CROP IS A PAY-
ING INVESTMENT.
Hab t of Farircrs of Marketing Crop
as Soon as Passible Has Lost Them
Thousands of Dollars In
the past.
Sicrelary McNabb, of the agrlcul-!
tural board, in an interview on tli"|
Oklahoma broom corn crop stated that
Its cultivation as a business would be
a paying investment to the farmers
here. The present attltpde of the
farmers is to use it as a secondary
crop, planting It carelessly and letting
It grow without any care. As a rul.-
it Is planted on freshly broken sod,
where only half of it can gerifiinatr.
When the corn is ripe, It Is left on the
ground to sweat and become nioisi.
Then a buyer comes along, and pick-
ing out a stalk that has become quite
brittle through exposure, he shows
how easily it can be broken and scares
the producer into si lling it at the price
prevailing of the cheapest grades. As
oftm as not the mass of the corn
would grade a little higher, but tin
fanner by a little neglect has lost o
good many dollars.
Mr. McNabb says that by planting a
little thicker on the ground the Okla-
homa farmer? could make a good pay-
ing crop of broom corn. The buyers
In Illinois pay from forty to sixty dol-
lars a t >n for the crop, while hero it
is sold for about half that much With !
a little care Oklahoma farmers could,
get as much as the Illinois farmers.
Already buyers are coming into the ter-
ritory and buying the corn at the price
here, shipping it to the eastern states
as Illinois product, and doubling their
money.
Secretary McNabb would like to see
the profit go to the producer.
Mr. McNabb spoke very strongly of
'he fact that the farmers here sell
their crops as soon as threshed, forc-
ing (he market down and giving the
speculators a chance to make the pro-
fit. If the products were held anri
prices maintained, the Oklahoma pro-
ducer would be many thousand dollars
richer at the end of the year than h9
will be if he persists In selling the
crop at the end of the harvest season.
