362PERPETUAL FORAGE AND GRAZING GRASS. DESCRIPTION.--A perennial pasture grass, growing the year round, even during the dryest weather, being unaffected by drouth. Heavy freezing kills the top, but the roots send up fresh sprouts in a few days' time. Once started it needs no further cultivation, reproducing and spreading by roots under ground, suckers and the seeds. Stalks falling down root at each joint. Roots also by seeds, but the seed is not reliable and not recommended. It will stand heavy freezing, once established so the stock will not pull it up by the roots. Protested from stock, it makes fine hay, growing from three to five feet high. But its chief value is as a Drouth-proof Grazing Grass. It is more fully described in the Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture for 1880, pages 375, 376. Chickens, and fowls of all kinds, are very fond of the young sprouts and will hunt for them in preference to any other green food. I have control of the only stock in Texas, and will ship roots at any time and season. PRICES. By Mail, post paid, $1.00 per 100 roots. By Express, 50c. per 100 roots. No order for less than 25 roots by mail or $2.00 worth by express, filled. | 362PERPETUAL FORAGE AND GRAZING GRASS.
