The first season of experimental culture
of this new ito us) forage plant has passed,
and we believe with thorough conviction
of It's great value all who have tried II.
We have seen two orthree crops, Of which
We can personally speak; one 10 town,
raised by DIR. Hooker, which was sowe'i
somewhat thinly, but which attained Il
fne height, and was heavily headed. Mr..
w. B. Gordon had piece OF furthermore
than one acre from which be estimates
that he cut fifteen thousand pounds.
This may be- ali over estimate; but we SAW
the Millet standing III cocks after being
cut and tie field locked as If ali the forage
of tile neighboring farms had been dumped
upon il. Mr.---H arriss who lives not
FAR from Mebanesyille tells us that from a
little less than two acres, lie cut eleven
loads, each one Of which lie believes
weighed ton. This was on land not
specially prepared for Milet Last year
it was In corn, and the yield OF the two
acres Was five bushels.
The general testimony IL uniform a. 70
lis nutlitiye qualities, aud all stock areex-
cessively fond oft. Ia reply 70 the ques-
iion. whether IL Is an exhaaster, all say
that II is not so to an EXCESSIVE extent. a
crop that yields so heavily must draw
upon the land. But crop that pays so
well u worth the trouble 70 manure and
prepare well. High culture always pays
well. and this Is tile sysiemih.t ,aust ue

acres well cultivated pay better than y
