BLUE GRASS.
Unquestionabiy the Rest Pasturage Grass
for the Western States.

Unquestionabiy the Rest Pasturage Grass
for the Western States.
According to recent discussion a
grass in order to be most valuable for
pasture must possess the following
characteristics: Be well suited to the
locality, both as to soil and climate;
nutritious; palatahle; capable of grow
ing continuously, so as to constantly
renew its foliage when cropped; endure
the tramping of animals; be easily
propagated.
The nutritiousness of blue grass for
pasture is universally acknowledged
and need not be argued. In like man.
ner its palatability is acknowledged.
Who ever saw hungry animal refuse
good blue grass? No other grass is
able to reproduce its leaves SO quickly
when they have been cropped. At the
angle formed by the blade of the leaf
with It's sheath is the region of growth,
and here growth goes ON continuously.
Leaves have been known to attain q
length of from three to four feet. When
a leaf is bitten off above this region of
growth new blade is soon formed. In
this way leaf may yield great deal
of food throughout the season. This
continuous growth is one of the most
important character, and upon it de-
ponds to great extent the high value
of blue grass.
tits well known that but few, II any,
of our ordinary grasses will endure the
tramping of animals as well as blue
grass. It is very tenacious of life and
place, and will run out many other
plants. The character gives it a high
value wherever the ground is closely
pastured Blue grass seeds abundant
", and the seed is easily gathered and
threshed. Seed is thus not expensive,
and may always be obtained in good
quantity. It is, moreover, not difficult
to secure good stand of blue grass in
field, the seeds terminating readily
and the little plants being pretty hardy.
taken all in all, we feel that blue grass
can be regarded as perfect pasture

Ninety Barrels a Day.

amount manufactured averages ninety
barrels a day, some for home
consumption, but the greater part for
export to the coast of Africa. The
barrels contain forty-three gallons, and
the internal revenue tax is ninety cents
per gallon = thirty-eight dollars and
seventy cents a barrel. For ninety
barrels, days work, the Treasury of
