Bermuda Grass.

In several portions of the county
we have seen fine sods of Bermuda
grass grass growing. Around CO.
Iumbia there are several acres of it in
different places, and it seems to grow
as well and look as thick rs it does in
its native soil further South. 1t is
one of the best grasses grown, being
up early and especially fine for stand,
ing drOughts. 1t is very iender and
highly relished b. all kinds of stock
No land can wash with it On it. lts
stolon:ferOus roots, running like the

Our farmers would find it fine
