TIMOTHY. TIMOTHY. This is the most val- uable of all the grasses for hay, especially in the North. Thri/es best on moist loamy soils of medium tenac- ity. It should be cut just when the blossom falls. Sow early in the spring or fall, at the rate of twelve pounds per acre, if alone, but less if mixed with. other grasses. Forty-five pounds per bushel. RED TOP—FANCY. In some sections this is called Rhode Is- land Bent Grass. In Pennsylvania and states farther south it is known as Herd's Grass, a name applied in New England and New York to Timothy. It is a good, per- manent grass, standing our climate well, and makes good pasture when fed close. Sow in spring or fall. KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. Sometimes called June, but the true June or Wire Grass is much inferior. The Ken- tucky Blue Grass is the most nutrious, hardy and valuable of all northern grasses. In Conjunction with white clover it forms a splendid lawn; for this purpose use four bushels of Blue Grass and six pounds of White Clover per acre. If sown by itself for pasture, two bushels will be required; sow earlv in the spring, or in October or November. Fourteen pounds per bushel. ORCHARD GRASS. One of the most valuable grasses on ac- count of its quick growth and valuable aftermath. It has a tendency to grow in tufts, and does better if sown with clover, and as it ripens at the same time the mixed hay is of the best quality. When sown alone, two bushels are required per acre; if sown with clover, half that amount. It is perennial, and will last for years, but its habit of growth unfits it for lawns. Four- teen pounds per bushel. PEREXMAL RYE GRASS. A very valuable
