EXPERIMENTS WITH GRASSES. 



Owing to abundant rains the yield of grasses and pasture has been good in all 

 parts of this province. It was, however, somewhat difficult to cure owing to heavy 

 growth and frequent showers. Where the crop is heavy the use of a hay tedder is a 

 great advantage, by its use the hay can be cured quicker and much more uniformly. 



While Timothy and Western Rye grass can be cured in the bunch or cock, Brome 

 grass requires to be thoroughly curod before being cocked, otherwise it turns dark in 

 colour and is very dusty.
