bunch grass, which has proved very valuable under cultivation. 
Better adaptel to range tand than meadows; however, recent 
tests are nroving its value as a grass for alkali soils. It grows 
in dry, arid sections, producing numerous slender, erect stems, 
two to four feet high, with narrow flat leaves. Sow either Fall 
or Spring. 
TIMOTVHY—COf hay grasses, Timothy leads all. Thrives on clay or 
hervy loams, wet or boggy soils, or in mountainous districts.

Timothy and 6 pounds clover,

good permanent ‘stand and is well adapted’ to pastures. It has

per acre.
