Meadow MEADOW FESCUE or ENGLISH BLUE GRASS. Grows two to three feet high, but never in large tuf is like Orchaid Grass. One of the earliest, most nutritious and productive glasses. It is especially suitable for permanent pastuie; thrives well in all soils, but to best advantage on moist lands. Makes good hay, and cattle thrive well on it. whether dry or in a green state. It succeeds well even in poor soil, and, as its roots penetrate the earth twelve or fifteen inches, it is not affected except by exceedingly dry weather, and is as valuable a fertilizer as Red Clover. It is one of the hardiest grasses after a good stand is secured; it will stand more freezing than any other variety. It yields an abundant crop of seed. Not- withstanding its acknowledged merits, this grass lias been sown only to a limited extent in this country. It is deserving of much more attention than it has heretofore received from our western farmers. Sow fifteen to twenty pounds per acre in spring. Lb. 20c. ORCHARD GRASS. No farmer should be without a small field of Orchard Grass as in mnny respects it is super ior to all oiher grasses. It stands the drouth, grows well in the shade, does well in wet or poor ground, and is splendid to prevent worn-out fields from washing. This grass furnishes excellent pasturage three weeks before any other and after close graz- ing ten days rest is sufficient for another growth. Cows fed on this will produce more and richer milk than on Blue Grass. It makes a very heavy sod, and when well set remains for many years. It is especially adapted for winter grazing, as it •emains green all season. Sow 20 to 25 pounds an acre. ^b.
