Looming Broom Corn Boom Promises New Crop profits
The Telegraph reports Professor Williams of the Georgian Academy for the Blind advocates broom corn cultivation as a safer, more profitable crop. With a 10 week harvest and two crops per season, an acre could yield about five hundred pounds of broom corn at six cents per pound, potentially earning sixty dollars per acre. The rising price of broom corn, driven by past shortages, supports this claim and many in Oglethorpe County plan large plantings this season. In a separate local tale, Uncle Stead helps a needy woman by sending flour and provisions, with Lovejoy delivering the aid.
