Meadow 
(Poa Trivialis.) This is 
closely related to the Kcn- 
tiickv Blue Grass and is highly esteemed 
in Eaglaiui where it is used with other 
sorts to form permanent pastures. It 
succeeds best in moist soils and will not 
thrive in sandy soil. It is a hardy peren- 
nial, growing 2 to 3 feet in height, and 
flowers in July. When sown alone, from 
'J'i to .SO p<>unds per acre is reqiiii'cd.

mixing with pasture gras'ses, as it emits, 
when p.irtially dry. a very fragrant odor

sweetening h.-iy. It grows quickly in

fimaa (S*^* cut.) (Avena Ela- 
vil ttos, tior.) Strong growing 
species of grass that often att.iins a 
height of 3 or 4 feet by the middle of 
June, and bv many preferred to timo- 
thy. Make's splendid hay and tiirivcs 
on sandy loam, but makes its best 
growth where there is some clay. 
Can he fed as a pasture grass, and 
will generallv bear cutting three 
times. Kor mixing with rerennial 
Kve and Alfalfa for sandy soils it is 
excellent. Sow about 30 to 40 lbs,

Sheep's Fescue. 
(Fcstuc a 
Ovina.) A valuable short and dense 
growing grass that is greatly relished 
Ijy sheep and is used in many of 
the best grass mixtures. Although 
not so tall in growth as Meadow- 
Fescue, it is deep rooted and therefore 
valuable for sections affected by 
drought. We do not think it can be 
too highly recommended for sheep 
pastures. Sow 33 lbs. per acre.
