SUDAN GRASS 
Haven’t you a few acres on your farm upon which you would 
like some hay that can be raised quickly and easily and that 
Will give you 4 to 8 tons of cured hay per acre? Plant Salzer s 
Sudan Grass Seed! The drier and hotter the weather, the more 
will you be surprised at the wonderful yield. Salzer s Sudan 
Grass is one of the most prolific hay crops ever grown; in the 
South it gives three crops and in the North, two crops of hay 
a sear on. A surprisingly rapid grower, and as a catch crop 
fully equal to Millet. Sudan Grass is used for pasture, ensilage 
and soiling as well as for hay. It does best on a rich loam soil, 
but it has been grown successfully on almost every class ot 
soil from a heavy clay to a light sand. It is sweet, heavy- 
yielding grass; absolutely drought proof; stock of all kinds eat 
it greedily, often in preference to Alfalfa; it analyzes over 
9 per cent protein. . 
Culture— Sudan Grass is an annual. Do not plant it until 
the soil is warmed up in the spring. Sow at the rate of 15 to 35 
lbs. per acre, using a grain drill and cover from 1 to 1% in. 
deep. A heavy seeding" is desirable. The seed is cheap. Cut 
at the heading out stage. Easy to cut with mower and cures 
readily. Place in cocks, the same as Alfalfa, and leave it long 
enough for the stems to become dry. Cut again when high 
enough. If grown for seed, only one crop can be harvested. 
All live stock eat the hay readily and greedily. There is a 
place for Sudan Grass on every farm. It is cheap, it grows 
rapidly, and it makes its best growth when other pastures 
often fail during the hot weather. Can be sown any time 70 to 75 days before frost. ■ - ^ . 
poisoning from Sudan Grass, but if not pastured until the plants are knee-high, nor if the plants become stunted 
from any factor or wilted, the amount of prussic acid is small and not dangerous. These are the findings of the 
Wisconsin Station who are constantly experimenting with Sudan Grass. The cases of cattle poisoning have usually 
been from too early pasturing and allowing the cattle to eat a stunted and wilted crop, but the quick and enormous
