The perennial grasses of this coun-
try constitute a very large per cent
of our hay crop. While it Is true that
they have but a small place In In
tensive agriculture, the fact remains
that there are extensive areas which,
for various reasons, not the least of
which Is the lack of farm laborerS,
are likely. for some time to come. to
be farmed in grass. These grasses
are exceedingly useful in holding the
soil. This is a service of value every
where, but for some locations 1t means
the salvation of the soil. Most OF
these grasses make good sods, which
in turn makes humus, and humus
gives life to the soil.
Timothy is a native Of Europe. hav-
ing been brought to America by the
early colonists. 1t takes its name
from one Timothy Hanson who intro

success under cultivation in various
parts Of the new country led to its
being carried back to England some
thirty or forty years later, the new
name going with It, The old name
for this grass was meadow catstail.
1t IS doubtful whether 1t had been
cultivated in England previous to this
importation from the American col
