SUDAN 
GRASS 
Sudan Grass is a quick- 
growing annual grass re¬ 
quiring a little longer 
growing season than the 
Millets, but attaining a 
greater height and produc¬ 
ing a considerably heavier 
yield of forage. Through¬ 
out the Corn Belt it is the 
most valuable grass catch 
crop, used for hay, pasture 
and occasionally for sil¬ 
age. It may be grown 
where ve r Soy Beans 
thrive. It requires a fair¬ 
ly rich, loamy soil, pre¬ 
pared as for the Millets, 
but is more resistant to 
drought and is the most 
dependable pasture crop 
during dry weather. As 
hay it is fully equal to 
Timothy and is relished 
by stock.

KENTUCKY 
Blue Grass 
Will outlive any other 
grasses for pasture or 
lawn, but should not be 
cut or pastured too close¬ 
ly in extremely hot, dry 
weather. The seed is slow 
in germinating, therefore, 
it is advisable to plant 
with other varieties of 
quicker growing habits. 
Makes a sweet and nutri¬ 
tious pasture for all stock.
