“I desire to state our success with Hoff¬ 
man Sudan Seed. We drilled our first small 
field May 15th. July 1st we turned out our 
30 cows and heifers and had pasture which 
hid the year-old animals. July 23rd drilled 
Sudan again, cut 2 tons hay per acre and 
pastured for 23 days or till frost, after 
cutting.” 
S. O. McCormick, 
New Salem, Penna. 
“The Sudan Grass seed I purchased of 
you last spring came up fine. Had a fine 
crop. Will need more seeds this spring.” 
T. E. Conner, 
Oxford, Pa. 
“I sowed 5 acres to Sudan Grass seed in 
May. In July I pastured 30 head of cattle 
on it for two weeks. Then I took them off 
for one month, and after that I pastured the 
cattle all fall on it and think very much of 
it as a pasture.” 
‘ M. R. Cole, 
Stewartsville, N. J. 
“The Sudan Grass did well and proved 
timely. Stock like it well, both as pasture 
and hay. The second crop was best for hay.”

63 
side the next 45 to 50 days. The plant stools remarkably. 
Its hay is equal to Timothy Hay—analysis shows 9.13 per 
cent protein. Stems are not extra heavy even though plant 
grows tall. For hay, cut when in bloom or a little earlier 
—about the time the heads appear. 
Sudan is an annual—re-seeded each 
year. When other grasses wither because 
of dry weather, Sudan keeps supplying 
pasture. 
Don’t sow Sudan until the soil is warm 
—corn-planting time or a little later. Seed 
can be drilled or broadcast—cover a half 
inch. Broadcast 18 to 24 pounds per acre. 
Sudan is often sown with Soy Beans or 
Cow Peas, making a fine combination. 
Sudan is a quick, sure, heavy producer 
of hay, pasture or ensilage.
