This magnificent Grass is winning many new friends each year.

It is a wonderfully rapid grower and returns heavy hay crops. Thrives easily. Sow 20 lbs. per acre. It is particularly adapted for permanent pastures or meadows, where it thrives luxuriantly, bearing great quantities of nutritious hay Compared with any of the varieties of common Rye Grass, the Italian Rye Grass affords a stronger braird, arrives at maturity sooner, has a greater abundance of foliage, which is broader and of a Hghter or more lively green color, grows considerably taller, is more upright or less inclined to spread on the ground, its spikes are longer, spikelets more thinly set, and upon the whole produces a less bulk of seed, which is smaller.

This Grass is extremely scarce this year, and of poor quality at that, and we would advise using Kentucky Blue Grass in its place. In ordinary years this is a valuable pas- ture Grass, also excellent for hay, succeeding well on all soils, and bears especially on nioist lands. It grows rapidly and produces ^irly. Sheep are particularly fond of this, either as grass or as hay. It is especially valuable for a permanent pasture, where grazing IS continuous. — . , ^ . . It withstands our cold.
