MEADOWS AND PASTURES 4I 



is killed by too close cropping. In tlie Middle South 

 a good meadow of tlie ordinary glasses, such, as tim- 

 othy, orchard-grass, fescue, and redtop, should never 

 be pastured at all, and a Bermuda-grass meadow must 

 not be pastured late in the fall. If it is, it is liable to 

 freeze out. Johnson grass will not stand pasturing to 

 any extent. If pastured at all closely it becomes 

 patchy.
