FRUIT and FARm

experiments conducted at the Texas
Experimental Station have demon
strated that it is excellent for horses,
cows and steers.
Sudan Grass in This Valley-Dur-
ing the past summer the Southern
Oregon Experimental Station con-
Quoted extensive experiments with
Sudan grass, both at the station farm
and in cooperation with a number
of farmers throughout the valley.
The results were extremely satisfac-
tory. Two cuttings were obtained
from seed sown on May 5. The first
cutting on the unirrigated plot aver
aged from five to six feet high and
yielded at the rate of 4772 pounds
per acre; while the irrigated plot
averaged from seven to eight feet
high, and produced at the rate of
7705 pounds per acre. Many Of the
plants on the irrigated plot were over
nine feet high. The second cutting,
just before frost, averaged three feet
high and produced approximately one
and one-half tons per acre. This hay
was relished by horses and cows.
Another planting was made on
July 10, on land from which crop
of wheat hay had just been removed.
This was grown on especially good
soil, the seed was planted in rows,
and the land was thoroughly irri
gated. The crop was cut October 2,
when it was seven and one-half feet
high, and yielded approximately
three and one-half tons per acre.
Cultural Directions - The seed
should not be sown until the ground
is warm and danger from heavy
frosts is past. The later part of April
or the first of May is sufficiently
early for the first planting. Where
irrigation is not practiced early
planting will give the best results.
Where irrigation is available the
seeds can be planted any time between
the first of May and the latter part
of July. The late planting, of course,
will give only one cutting.
Sudan grass can be grown in rows
feet apart, which will require from
four to five pounds of seed per acre,
or it may be sown broadcast or drill
ed in with a regular grain drill,
which would require Is to 25 pounds
per acre. Since each plant stools
enormously only a small quantity of
seed is required to SOW an acre. Two
years ago the seed sold for $1.00 per
pound. 1t can now be had for about
Is cents per pound. This plant is
a good seed producer in this valley,
and one man produced large guam
tity of seed near Brownsboro last
year.
Sudan grass is of great value in
this valley because of its great
drought resisting qualities. 1t can
be grown on many soils which are
too dry during the summer months
for the production of other forage
plants, 1t will be of special value
on shallow soils which are inclined !
to be droughty. On dry soils, and
where irrigation is not practiced, the
seed can be sown about the first of
May. Where irrigation is practiced
a crop of grain and vetch hay may
be grown during the fall, winter and
spring months, and a crop of Sudan
grass during the summer months.
While Sudan grass is one of the
greatest drought resisters known our
results show that it will yield con-

Conclusion
In conclusion l should like to ad-
wise every farmer in this valley to
plant at least small quantity of Su-
dan grass this year. 1t will prove
a revelation to most farmers. The
seed can be purchased from local
seed dealers.
1t is we'll known that alfalfa is
king of all forage plants on deep,
fertile, well-drained, moist soils. On
soils which will produce abundant
crops of alfalfa, this crop is preferred
to Sudan grass. Where conditions
are not favorable for abundant crops
of alfalfa, Sudan grass will prove the
most satisfactory forage crop to be
grown during the summer months.
