This and the preceding species are strictly annu- 

 al, and from the results of this trial, their nutritive 

 powers appear to be very inconsiderable. The seed 

 of this species, Mr. .Schreber describes (in Beschrei- 

 bung der Graser) as the manna grass. In Poland, 

 Lithuania, &c. it is collected in great abundance, when 

 after being thoroughly separated from the husks, it is 

 fit for use. When boiled with milk, or wine, it forms 

 an extremely palatable food, and is most commonly 

 made use of whole, in manner of sago, to which it is in 

 general preferred.
