leafy shoots Coulson Hill Junior institute at the btl0uou home of Gladys and Doris Bell olld year the shoots appear in greater number and flowering stems arise in their midst but it is only from the third year that its high yielding power is inani ifesl If slow to reachfull devel hopment when once established it keeps on giving heavy yield for many years It IS an early grass and ready to cut before Timothy For this reason it is better sown with Red Clover Orchard Grass is scarcely stir passed ili feeding value provided that it is cut at the right time Its nutritive quality is highest and IIS yield heaviest it cut when in bloom or even little earlier It becomes woody after flowering is over and loses its feeding value It recovers quickly after cutting the numerous leafy shoots furnish ing an excellent pasture for horses and cattle The second growth however should not be allowed to develop too far as it loses its pal atability with age There is little danger from pasturing too close except in an extremely dry season on the contrary close pasturing prevents the plants from getting course and woody If given sufficient space and nourishment its short rootstock causes Orchard Grass to develop iirto dense tufts This is an un desirable quality that should be suppressed either by comparative ly heavy seeding or by sowing it with other forage plants In either case the tuft formation will be less marked and grass of ner texture and of superior quality will be obtained When sown with other forage plants only varieties which reach maturity at the same time such as early Red Clover Tall Oat Grass and Meadow Fes cue should be chosen When seededalone for hay or pasture twentyeight to thirty pounds of good seed should be used to the acre little less for seed produc tion Sccd

in England about one hundred and fifty years ago the seed was obtained from Virginia It is now grown iii temperate regions all over the world Habitat Orchard Grass grows naturally in meadows waste pla ces along roadsidcs ctc It oc curs in woods as well as in open fields and is more adapted to sha dy situatiOns than other meadow grasses Its frequent occurrence ill orchards has given it its name For Better Light to harvest Cutting too early means inferior quality It can be harvested with an ordinary grain binder and the sheaves which must be rather small should be set three to live together in small shocks They should be left to cure from two to six weeks de pending on the weather arid then threshed without stacking Quality of seed Good seed is bright strawcolored and contains onlv small amount of hrillcd seed and whole spikelcts or groups of seed not loosened from each other in threshing It keeps its vitality fairly well for twoycars Seed older than that should iiol be used as the
