IDENTIFICATION AND
USE OF Bent GRASS
Bulletin Tells How to Clear Up
Confused Ideas of Plant.
Rhode Island Variety Is Common in
New England States and Is VaIu-
able for Lawns, Golf Courses
and Other Purposes.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Information that will enable seeds
men and farmers to clear up confused
ideas regarding the Identification and
uses of the bent grasses commonly
grown in the United States is given in
Bulletin 692, "The Agricultural Species
of Bent Grasses" recently published
by the United States department of ag-
riculture.
The bulletin is divided into two
parts. The first part contains dis
cussion of red top, form, Rhode Island
bent, colonial bent, velvet or brown
bent, and carpet bent. Rhode Island
bent, according to the bulletin, is
common grass in New England and is
valuable for lawns and golf courses.
For making a fine turf it is excelled
only by velvet and carpet bent, which
occur in the trade only in mixed seed
from Europe. Velvet bent makes the
densest finest turf, carpet bent the
next best, Rhode Island bent slightly
coarser, turf, while that produced by
red top and form is much coarser.
Part two of the bulletin gives a dis
cussion of the distinguishing charac-
teristics of the seed of these grasses
which occurs in commercial trade. The
kinds of seed are illustrated, together
with the principal impurities found
with them. Misbranding ihI the trade
occurs chiefly in the substitution of
red-top seed for seed of the other
grasses, but study of seed character
istics, as given in the bulletin, will en-.
able seedsmen and farmers to distin.
guish red-top seed from that of the
finer grasses, more desirable for grow.

cOTTONSEED MEAL FOR COWS
Feeds on Market-Should Be

prepared by the United States Depart

CottOnseed meal is the richest in
protein of all the common COW feeds
on the market. 1t is usually the cheap
est source of protein available, but it
does not have the best physiological
effect upon the COW, often causing di-
Gestive troubles if fed in large Quanti-
ties for long periods. At first it is ad-
Sisable to start with one to two pounds
q day, gradually increasing the quanti-
ty If no bad results are observed. In
some herds in the North as high as five
to six pounds day are fed without

to be no limit in this direction.
Cottonseed meal is highly concen-
trated feed and should, if possible, be
fed in mixture with some bulky feed
like bran. 1t can be fed to better ad-
vantage when the roughage contains
an ample quantity Of succulent feed.
While its physiological effect in the
North at least Is not good as COM
pared with most other COW feeds, its
cheapness and the fact that in time
the cows seem to overcome this ten
dency to digestive trouble from it are
rapidly giving it great prominence as a
cheap source of protein for dairy cows.
