93 Blue grass, orchard, clover and red-top. Orchard the best pasture. 



94 Clover and red-top are all that is used in this county. Clover the 



best, if it would last. 



95 All the common grasses are used for grazing. Clover and orchard 



best. 



96 Clover, red-top, orchard grass. Orchard best. 



97 Herds grass, clover, timothy. The last two mixed with orchard. 



For permanence, herds, timothy, orchard. 



98 Blue grass, orchard and herds grass. 



99 Blue grass, red-top and red clover. All considered good. Blue 



grass best. 



100 I consider the only way to have a good and permanent meadow or 



pasture, is to sow a mixture of grasses, the more the better, and 

 a good sod will scarcely be formed under 10 or 15 years.
