Thompson, Kansas station.] Sudan grass, the new sorghum that received such widespread notoriety last year, is showing up well again in Kansas this year. The result of the trial plantings in-all parts of the state shows that it is a erop that has come to stay. In the-western part of the state, where other tame grasses cannot be 3| grown, Sudan grass can be used suc- cessfully. Although the grass is pri- marily a bhay crop, careful tests from the standpoint of & pasture crop have been made by the branch experiment stations at Hays and Dodge City as well as by many farmers,-and the re- sults have been found promising. Western Kansas farmers feel that in° Sudan grass they have a crop that will add thousands of dollars to their profits every year, since it will afford a hay erop to the upland farmer that will mean as much to him as dlfalfa means to the bottom land farmer. The crop has been successfully grown in Shawnee and other eastern countles. Sudan grass bids fair to replace millets and canes as a-hay crop In some sections of Kansas. Experiments have shown that under normal condi- tions two crops can‘be depended upon. | The yield is larger than millet. being from four to five tons an acre. Fur- thermore, horses and cattle are fond {of it and will leave almost any other kind of ghage for Sudan grass, cleaning up leads, blades and stalks. One farmer said in a letter to the onomy department of the college u regard to the feeding value of the s good hay that horses a1l in love .with at first and cattle sight.” Some of the most desirable charac- teristics of Sudan grass are its drought resistant qualities, its ability to pro- duce on thin land and its quick ma- turity under ordinary conditions. These qualities, coupled with the seemingly. superior palatability, make the crop reasonably sure of a permanent place in Kansas agriculture.
