SUDAN GRASS—A quick growing summer hay grass, often 
yielding two or three cuttings a season. The entire plant is 
eaten by stock and well liked. More and finer hay is secured 
when the seed is sown broadcast and often produces four tons 
or more to the acre. AS an emergency pasture crop Sudan 
Grass has few equals. Also used as an ensilage and has about 
an equal value to corn silage. It is a very good drought resist- 
ant. Should be sown about two weeks after corn planting time, 
but can be sown up to the first week in July.

USE OF PASTURE MIXTURES 
A combination of grasses and legumes aid materially 
in reducing feeding costs as well as prevents soil erosion. 
The yields from legume-grass mixtures are normally higher 
than where they are grown alone. Growth of weeds are 
retarded as grasses between the legume plants give them 
no chance to get started. The value of year round pasture 
cannot be over estimated. 
A mixture of grasses and legumes is recommended for 
silage as well as pasture. 
Orchard Grass or Tall Fescues combine with Ladino 
Clover makes excellent combinations. Alsike Clover and 
Red Top may be added if desired. 
Other crops recommended are: Alyce Clover, Blue Grass, 
Red Clover, Korean Lespedeza, Birds foot Trefoil, Reeds 
Canary Grass, Timothy, Sweet Clover, White Dutch Clover 
and Rye Grass. 
Fall grains such as Balboa Rye, Winter Barley and Win- 
ter Oats makes a good cover crop when sown in late 
August or September and will produce pasture during the 
fall and winter. A grain crop may be harvested from 
them if allowed to head in the spring.
