Troulile.somc in moist Ian us. The 

 rushes are weeds of wet places : some 

 are useful for weaving, others yield 

 liith for making tallow dips. The 

 softer ones lire slightly browsed by 

 j-toek. but none are good Imlder 

 •plants. Their presence in a pasture 

 ndicates the need of dniiiiage and 

 manuring. The leaves of some of 

 thesp'cies furnish good paper-making 

 material anil llbre of considerable 

 strength
