DROUTH DEFYING FROST RESISTING BROMUS INERMIS. So extensively and favorably has Bromus Inermis been men- tioned by the agricultural press, and so unanimovis in its praise have been all those who have tried it, that extended description seems unnecessary. For the benefit, however, of those whose at- tention has not been particularly drawn to its merits, we would say that it comes from Russia. On the great prairies of that country this marvelous grass thrives luxuriantly. It stands year after year in good soil, yielding enormous crops of excellent hay, and furnishes rich and abundant pasturage. Bromus Inermis is an inestimable boon to countries where clover does not thrive, and where timothy and other grasses, either tame or wild, yield a light and decreasing crop of hay. It is a thoroughly established success in North and South Dakota, Montana, Wash- ington, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho and other States, and its intro- duction into those States means millions of money atlded to their wealth. So far North as Manitoba it has proven an unequalled suc- cess. Mr. S. W. Bedford, Superintendent of the Experimental Farm at Brandon, Manitoba, writes us under date of Nov. 9,1899: "The Bromus Inermis has done exceedingly well on the farm here, both on high and low land. Even on <mr gravelly soil and the tops of hills it has given us a fair return, Avhile on the rich, alluvial soil it has yielded us a very heavy crop indeed, exceeding four tons ol dry liay to the acre during the past year. It gives us a very much larger return than timothy, and the cattle prefer it above any hay we have tested ; We have tested its feeding value, both to dairy cattle and for feeding steers, and find that it gives us much better re- sults than any other class of ; Mr.
