1413 Sudan Grass 
Wonderful Quick Hay Crop 
One of the best annual forage plants ever 
introduced, suitable for almost any local- 
ity. Sudan Grass thrives best on rich loam, 
but has been grown successfully on almost 
every kind of soil, from heavy clay to light 
sand. Cold, wet, boggy soils are not suited 
to Sudan Grass, 
Sudan Grass is a sorghum, and an an- 
nual, without underground root sprouts. It 
grows 4 to 5 feet high in drilled seedings, 
and 5-to 8 feet in cultivated rows. Do not 
sow Sudan Grass before corn planting time. 
Like corn, it is a warm weather crop. In 
favorable seasons, the growing period is 
long, and several cuttings can be obtained 
in one.season. For hay it is ready to cut 
in 60 to 75 days, when it is in full head. It 
continues its growth, and in 40 to 45 days 
it is ready for another cutting. 
Sudan Grass is an enormous yielder, pro- 
ducing 3 or 4 tons of hay at the first cut- 
ting. The second cutting is lighter, and the 
hay is much finer. Live stock of all kinds 
_ will eat the hay readily. 
For hay, sow at the rate of 20 to 30 lbs. 
per acre, using a grain drill, and cover 
from one to one and one-half inches deep, 
Heavy -seeding makes finer quality hay. 
Postpaid, 1b., 30c; 214 ibs., 70c; 5 Ibs., $1.25.
