About Alfalfa,
(Oontrilauted by Ontario Department of
Agriculture, Toronto.)
This forage plant; which belongs
to the sorghum family, and is one of
the &nest in leafand stalk of this
group of plants, was introduced into
the United States from Africa in
1909. During the last tenyears it
has obtained considerable prominence
to the Sogth-western States, and
more recently has been advertised
anis sold by seedsmen in Ontario, and
also grown by a few farriers in the
Province.
Sudan Grass has been under test
in the experiments at Guelph for the
past eight years. During this tiui,•
It has been grown for its total green

For the results of this experiment
the plots were all sown broadcast.
It will be seen that in yield ere.
green fodder and of hay per acre the,
Sudan Grass was surpassed by five
of the six crops included In the test
The quality of hay made from Sudan
Grass was superior to that made
from Early Amber Sugar Sorgliuni
and eland's Wonder Forage Plant
and slightly inferior to that .made
from the three Millets. . This and
other experiments indicate that
Sudan Grass, although it yields some-
what less per acre, makes a better'
quality of hay than any of tins other
eight classes of sorghums which we
have had under test.
In the average of two years' tests
In which Sudan Grass was grown for
seed production, in comparison with
three varieties of millet, teff grass
and early amber sugar sorghum, the
Suclan•aGrass weighed 38.11 pounds
per ,measured bushel, yielded 4.52
tons of straw and 96.7 pounds of
grain per acre, This was a Smaller
yield of grain than that produced by
the early `amber sugar sorghum and
Ju ee different varieties of millet.
In pasture experiments at Guelph,
Sudan Grass has stood the hot, dry
sumrners very well. Sowing a •mix-
ture bf six pecks of O.A.C. No. 72
Oats. and 15 pounds of Sudan Grass
seed per acre produced -a greater
amount of pasture than when Sudan
Grass was sown alone.
Must Be•Sown on Warm Soil.
Our experience with Sudan Grass
Ieacls us to believe that the plant is
more subject to injury by late -frosts
in the spring than the average, variety
of tient corn. In drouth resistance
it '.s the equal, if not the superior, of
in Ilan corn. If is essentialin sowing
Sudan Grass that it be not sown until
the soil is warm. We have had the
best results from sowing this crop
just after the 'corn has been seeded.
\•alien sown for hay or pasture, Sudan
Grass is usually sown broadcast or in
Gose drills,- 25 to 30. pounds per
ear° should be sown when ' Sudan
Grass is 'sown alone, and when used
ti mixtures for pasture about • 15
pounds . per acre is 'sown. ` Sudan
Grass should be ent for hay When the
`reads are inn:1111 bloom, and may be
lured in much the same manner as
timothy. This crop has been little
grown for silage either in the 'United
States or Canada. The reasons for
this being that it is a betterhay and-
pasture than a silage plant and that
Indian- cornets a larger yielder of
silage than Sudan Grass. '
We hare: had different classes of `
snrghum F under experiment - at
Guelph for twenty-eight years,
and Sudan Grass for the past.
etent years. Up to the pres-
ent tine we have had no trouble
from sorghum poisoning}dip, the feed-
ing of Sudan Grass 6r the other
sorghums to stock.
Worth Trying as a Pasture Crop.
From the experimental evidence at
hand, it would seem that Sudan Grua
has shown sufficient promise to war-
rant its trial in a limited . way for
pasture, and as an emergency hay
crop on the warmer soil of Southern
and South-western Ontario, and 3n
favored areas even farther north.
Sudan Grass has been included in the
co-operative ` experimental tests in
each of the past four years, and will
be distributed again in the spring of
19.24. Any farmer in Ontario, there-
fore, who desires to test this plant .'
under his own conditions may have
an opportunity of doing so. -W. J.

When they woke on the morning

had worn fdr the previous night's

In .this predicament they appealed
to the authorities at the Canadian

whereby to earn enough to take
