Sorghums and Millets Numberless millions of people in India, China and Africa rely on the sorghums and millets for their bread. In India more land is devoted to growing these crops than to wheat, rice, and Indian corn combined. In Africa the sorghums are the one ever-present crop, from tropical jungle to desert oasis and mountain valley. The sorghums.—The sorghums may be divided into two classes— the saccharine sorghums, having stems filled with sweet juices, and the non-saccharine or grain sorghums, with more pithy stems and sour or only slightly sweet juice. The Indian corn plant never gives satisfac- tory returns if its growth is once checked. The sorghums may cease growing and their leaves shrivel during periods of excessive heat and drought; yet when the soil becomes moist again, they quickly resume.
