Field of Sudan Grass 
747 SUDAN GRASS 
Sudan srass can be grown almost any- 
where. It seems to be unaffected by 
temperature and grows as well in a 
cool climate as a hot one. It requires 
no special quality of soil; black loam, 
clay and sandy loams have all produced 
successful crops. Its most valuable qual- 
ity is its resistance to drought. In dry 
or semi-arid sections it thrives to per- 
fection and yet excessive moisture does 
not injure it in any way; is an annual, 
the first winter killing it completely. 
This valuable grass completely outdis- 
tances all competitors in quantity of 
yield. Three or four cuttings in a single 
season, each producing from IV. to 2 
tons of hay per acre, can be secured. 
A very conservative average is 5 tons 
of hay per acre each season. It should 
not be planted until all danger .if frost 
is over and the ground thoroughly 
warm. Can be sown in drills eighteen 
inches apart, using six pounds ^er acre 
or broadcast using fifteen pounds. V-
