SUDAN GRASS 
Sudan Grass will not replace Timothy or Clover, but will doubtless compete 
with Millet wherever that is now grown. 
Sudan Grass belongs to the Sorghum family. It is an annual, lacking un- 
derground root stalks. Two cuttings can be obtained under favorable conditions, 
and growers report two big crops last season. The yields vary from 1 to 8 tons 
of cured hay per acre. 
Sudan grass when seeded broadcast or in drills averages about 3 to 5 feet in 
height and has stems a little smaller than a lead pencil, being about three-sli- 
teentbs of an inch in diameter. If grown in rows and cultivated, it reaches a 
height of 5 to 9 feet, and the stems are larger than usual, being about one-fourth 
of an inch In diameter. The panicle is loose and open. 
It does best in hot weather and is not suited to high altitudes. Sudan Grass 
makes heaviest yields on a rich loam, but it has been grown successfully on 
almost every class of soil from a heavy clay to a light sand. The ground should 
be firm and well drained. ... 
Sow Sudan Grass after soil has become warm, about corn-planting time. It 
may be drilled from one-half to one inch deep. When broadcast, sow 16 to 24 
lbs. per acre; in rows, 6 lbs. per acre.
