Overview

Excerpt from Certain Grasses and Clovers Worthy of Cultivation in South Dakota While there are other grasses that give a better quality of hay than does smooth brome grass, we have grown none at this station that has given as good returns one year with another. The grass has given paying crops every year for the past five seasons. The yield Of seed is good, the hay is of good quality, though coarse when growth has been rank, and the grass promises well for use in permanent pastures. All kinds of stock eat it readily. Immediately after cutting a fine growth Of aftermath springs up which with proper care affords excellent fall and early winter grazing. In fine it possesses more of the qualities necessary for a good all around plant for permanent pastures and meadows than any other grass grown on the station farm up to the present time. It should not be used where frequent rotation is desired, for it is likely to be quite as persistent as our native wheat grass.
