The duration of the vegetative period with Standard broom corn 
shows a difference of 20 days between the earliest and latest matur- 
ing lots in 1915, which increased to 34 days in 1918. The variation 
in the vegetative period between the different lots of Dwarf broom 
corn was 19 days in 1915, which was increased to 44 days in 1918. 
ROW SPACE AND PERCENTAGE OF SUCKERS. 
The row space per plant in inches and the percentage of suckers, 
of stalks headed, and of good heads, with 2-year averages, for each lot 
of broom corn grown in the nursery during the two years 1917 and 1918 
are shown in Table XXVI. It will be noted that a uniform stand 
of about 7 inches of row space to the plant was obtained in nearly all 
the lots in 1917, and that, with a few exceptions, the same uniformity 
existed in the stand in 1918.
