Dictagraph. Sudan grass, the new annual hay grass introduced from Sudan in 1909, was so enthusiastically received by the farmers in the semlarid portion of the United States that in 1913 the seed which was available only in lim ited quantities sold readily at $1 per pound and even more. These unusual prices gave Sudan grass seed produc tion a great impetus, so that in 1914 seed was much more abundant, the crop being roughly estimated at from five to six million pounds. Three or four million pounds of this amount were produced in western Texas, where for a time an attempt was made to maintain the price at $1 per pound. In other localities, however, the seed was offered at 25 to 30 cents per pound, and as a result of this a great deal of the Texas seed of-the 1914 crop .remained unsold in 1915. This surplus seed carried over from 1914, together with that from the 1915 crop, has fully supplied the de mand, and the price of seed has drop ped to 5 cents or less a pound whole sale, and from 7 to 10 cents a pound retail Thousands of deaf people are to day throwing away all hearing de vices and are enjoying all conversa tion.

With irri gation the yields may reach 2,000 pounds per acre. Sudan grass is us ually grown in cultivated rows when a seed crop is desired. Planted in this way it Is readily harvested with a row binder, and after curing well In the field it can be thrashed with an ordinary grain separator. Since no especial machinery is required to handle the seed crop, the expenses are reduced to a minimum, and there remains no reason why' the seed should not be reasonably cheap and abundant. The most dangerous weed pest of Sudan grass fields is Johnson grass. This grass is common in the South and not infrequently occurs in fields of Sudan gras3. The seds of John son grass resemble Sudan grass so closely that only the very closest ex amination will reveal their presence, ence. An admixture of Johnson grass does not injure the quality of the Sudan grass hay crop, but it is a mat ter of decided importance when it comes to the production of seed for market purposes. Those who have land in the South free from Johnson grass consider it a decided injustice to be sold Sudan grass seed contain ing an admixture of Johnson grass. A method has besn discovered where by it is possible to identify, with reasonable certainty, the seed of Johnson grass when it is mixed with that of Sudan grass. This method cf aeed examination, however,, can net bo considered as an unfailing protec tion against infestation .of a farmer's "elds with Johnson grass. A saft;r plan is for the southern farmer to jrow his own seed where possible or purchase seed that has been grown .lorth of the Johnson grass area, that 3,. north of a line where Johnson jvass persists in the soil as a peren nial. In the region where winter freezes are severe enough to kill the underground rootstocks very litth? Johnson grass is found. The only vay seed of it can occur in Sudan grass seed, therefore, is through will ful mixing of the seed, but as John son grass seed can not be grown so cheaply as Sudan grass seed there is now no object in such adulteration. Where reasonable care is used by the ed grower to obtain pure seed with which to plant his fields in the North there then remains little chance of an admixture with seed of Johnson srass. f Many of the farmers in the South will be forced to buy their seed, be cause the presence of the sorghum midge in humid parts of the Southern States interferes seriously with seed production. Th midge is most abun dant close to the Gulf of Mexico, and there -Its attacks result in almost complete sterility of the Sudan grass. Farther north in these States, where the midge is not so abundant nor so uniformly present throughout the summer, a partial crop of seed often can be obtained, and in some cases a full crop of seed will set during a period when the midge is not present. In the dry atmosphere farther west the midge is not troublesome, and In Arizona, New Mexico, and California large yields of seed can be obtained under irrigation. ! - Sudan grass deserves a much wid er use as a hay crop throughout the Southern States and in the irrigated sections of the Southwest, and this continued and enlarged use for hay purposes should provide a steady de mand for good pure seed. Informa tion regarding present sources of seed will be furnished by the depart ment to those who wish to buy seed. More extended information regarding the culture of this grass is contained in Farmers' Bulletin 605, which is sent free on application to the Divis ion of Publications, Department of Agriculture.
