A Bunch of Millets 



The millets are a very numerous company, it being esti- 

 mated that there are at least three hundred species, mostly 

 natives of the tropics. Some of them are cultivated extensively in 

 Europe, but they are not as popular in this country as many 

 other grasses. The species here shown has peculiarly 

 attractive panicles, drooping gracefully 

 with their burden of seeds.
