SUDAN GRASS

Hay and forage production has
been greatly increased by the i'm
portation and adoption of several
plants, the cultivation of which has
been experimental with and fostered
by the United States department of
agriculture through its bureau of
plant industry until their suitability
and reliability for the desired pur-
pose have been fully demonstrated
and their cultivation established
One of these is treated in a pam
phlet issued in May, entitled Sudan
Grass, New Drough t-Resistan Hay
Plant" Oh. P. l. Circular 1850.
In the semi-arid west, where no
perennial grass has thus far been
found suited TO the conditions, Sudan
grass promises high value for hay.
Indeed it is not too much to predict
that there it is destined to become
the leading grass for hay production.
Under more humid conditions it has
also succeeded admirably and will
probably replace foxtail millets to
large extent, as it produces better
hay and usually larger yields.
There is still much to learn in re-
gard to the crop. but it has been test
ed most carefully in Texas, as well as
at Arlington Farm, Va, and has had
at least years trial at many places
on the Great Plains and at various
agricultural experiment stations, and
the data at hand indicate approx
mately the best methods OF culture.
Under light rainfall conditions, 1t
Is probably best TO SOW sudan grass
In rows, yet excellent results have
been secured In dry regions from
