Varieties in Timothy.

The West Virginia Experiment Station is
testing specimens OF timothy grass that
ripen at different times and otherwise show
such peculiarities that it is hoped to make
new varieties OF them. We have not much
faith that this can be done. Years ago we
have seen timothy that was very late in
ripening, but it was always accounted for
by the fact that it grew on low, wet ground,
where il did not start to growing until very
late. The heads of this late timothy were
extremely long, some OF them foot or more
in length, but the seed from these heads
sown on warm upland produced timothy of
the usual type, and which ripened ut the
usual time. The growth OF timothy has
always varied very much with the kind of
soil it occupied, but the grass has its fixed
characteristics that are common to all.
