This species is nearly allied to the Festuca ovina, 

 from which it differs little, except that it is larger in 

 every respect. The produce, and the nutritive matter 

 which it affords, will be found superior to those given 

 by the F. ovina, if they are brought into comparison.

This species, like the preceding, is strictly annual; 

 the above is therefore the produce for one year, which, 

 if compared with that of the least productive of the 

 perennial grasses, will be found inferior, and it must 

 consequently be regarded as unworthy of culture.
