"the longer acquaintance I have with orchard
grass the more valuc Il. Aud I have grown Il
for IS years. Twenty five years ago I sowed
down n field with II, aud Il is still in excellent
condition, producing an early crop Of hay and
pasture in the fall. II Is tho earliest grass for
fodder or pasture In the spring. and the 6rst 10
cut for hay. The hay is excellent, excepting
when IL l. grown too thiniy In the ground on rich
soil and l. cut late. when the stalks are eoarse.
When cut early and cured without too much ex.
posure 10 the sun Il makes the very best Of hay,
both for horses and cows. II l. easily sown on n
grain stubbe by plowing II well and thorough
narrowing TO get n enc surface. and seeding I,
early In August with tho grass alone. or with
clover mixed. II grows we'll with clover, as both
mature for cutting at the same time. which Il
early in June. that Is. they both reach the best
stage for cutting, which IL full blossom at that
time. SOW. if alone, two bushels 70 the acre, or
with clover one and half bushels and six pounds
