DOURA —(Branching or White-Seeded Egyptian). 
(Sorghum Vulgare.) 
Judging from our experience with this plant the past three seasons, 
and from reports of the experience of others, we believe this to be the 
most valuable of all the fodder plants recently brought to our notice. 
It is similar to Broom Corn in its growth, having, however, a very com- 
pact upright head, with white seeds, and is useful both for its grain and 
fodder. This must not be mistaken for the variety with the drooping 
head, which produces but one stalk from a seed, and is valuable only 
for the grain. The culture is like that of Broom Corn, but it needs 
richer and warmer land. It grows eight to twelve feet high, is very leafy, 
suckers freely, and may be cut several times during the growing 
season. It is also one of the best forage crops both for green and dry 
fodder, and, being much sweeter than Corn, cattle are exceedingly fond 
of it. It also resists drouth remarkably well, and, in seasons when 
corn has been ruined by drouth, this crop has remained uninjured. 
When cut for drying, the crop may be treated precisely like corn sown 
for fodder. _
