IIY W. W. WATSON.
Undo Billy Angle, retired farmer,
stockman nnd pioneer, with a resi
dence on Knst Main street, Medford,
and a stock ranch of HO ncrcs on Dry
creek, In the Antelope district, has
discovered tho Inst blade In grass
hay production.
It Is Sudan grass,
Whether or not It originally enmo
from Africa, India, Java or Jeru
salem doesn't matter. "It's Sudan
grass becnuse that's what It Is," ob
serves Undo Billy and he doesn't
stop to stammer when ho talks about
It.
Tact Is, It seems to be just v. lint ho
claims for It. Prom n 100 foot row
of It In his garden, grown this yenr
for tho first timo In Southern Oro
gon, ho hai gathoro already about 30
pounds of flno looking seed, fed many
heavy armloads of hay from It to a
flno milch cow and ono would scarce
ly bnllovo that ho has disturbed It.
Sonio of tho bundles have, grown to
a height of olght feet nnd, If tho frost
hadn't come about tho middle of this
month to nip It a little, It doubtlesH
would havo been growing yet. Tho
stniks, not ulto as largo as a load
pencil, filled with n Juicy jilth and
very brllllo, uro abundantly Jolncd
nnd from nearly ovory Joint another
stalk has grown, each stem bounti
fully covered with generous blades,
making a wonderful ylold of fodder,
somewhat sorghum-llkn. Young
grass, Just above tho crowns nnd In
tho shelter afforded by tho parent
stalks, Is yet growing verdantly.
Moro I'VkmI Vnluo to Ami
"Grnln, liny and wild oats aro tho
principal bay crops on our stock
ranch," snld Mr. Anglo to a Mall
Trlbuno man today. "Tho ylold per
ncro, considering the food vnluo of
tho product, Is not sufficient to bo
satisfactorily' profitable," ho contin
ued. "I hnvo been looking for some
thing, bettor nnd I believe I hnvo
found H. I'll toll you why. I re
ceived a package of Sudan grass seed
from tho U. S, department of agricul
ture, through tho good offices of Con
gressman llawluy. Tho result of my
planting It carefully Konietlmo Inst
May Is seen In that row In tho gardon.
It looks like n hedge row of the doll.
catcrornamontnl kind,- doesn't If
I havo fed tho cows generously from
It nnd I had to pan tho chickens up
to keep them from eating nil of tho
seods as fast as thoy appeared. Poul
try Is very fond of It, tho seeds being
oily nnd full of meat. During tho
summer, as tho heads ripened, I
gathered somo of Ilium for seed, ob
taining about ,10 pounds already.
That will sow quite an noreago and
that's thn way 1 will get my start of
Sudan grass. I havo great confi
dence In It. It's a wonderful pro
ducer nnd Its food vnluo In twice thnt
of Johnson, Uormudn or timothy hay.
Tho average yield Is 3.83 tons per
ucre, as given In twenty tests In Chll
llcotho, Texas, district, from -which
all of tho need wan obtained for e
pertinents throughout tho 1 nil til
.States."
Tho leading tests of Sudan grass,
both as to yield and feeding value,
havo been mado at tho various sub
stations In Texas, four of which have
found the average yield per aero to
uo 7flo pounds, protein content
UT0, fnt 1 17, crudo fiber 2291, nltro-gen-free
extract .'1187, and ash 777:
Johnson grass, 1000 pounds per acre,
319 -protein content, 84 fat, 1328
crudo fiber, 1951 nltrogcn-frce ex
tract nnd 31C ash: Bermuda grass,
4000 pounds per acre, 438 protein, 91
fat, 1020 crudo fiber, 20C2 nitrogen
freo extract and 338 ash. These fig
ures show that Sudan grnss excels
cither of the other grasses named Ih
protoln nnd carbohydrates (nitrogen-
free extract,) with an excess of crudo
fiber, while It contnlns a third moro
of fnt. It fnr exceeds timothy hay
In all of tho osncntlal points of ex
cellence In all of the experiments al
Ohio experiment stutlons.
One Hollar n Pound
Sudan grnss Is nn niinunl. Three
or four cuttings of hay may bo ob
tained from It In a season, approxi
mately sixty days Intervening be
tween tho hnrvests. As a fodder It
Is tender and Juicy, stock relishing It
avidly. Its seed mnke a flno poultry
feed, both In protein nnd ash. On
account of Us cxccsslvo fat content,
enro should bo exercised In feeding
It to laying lions. Tho seeds aro
about two-thirds thn size of amber
sorghum sied and nearly the samo
iinnpo. II yields ns high as 700 to
1200 pounds of seed per acre and,
by the way, tho seed Is worth a dol
lar a pound.
Tho soil generally and tho cllmato
wholly aro very favorablo for tho
production of Sudan grass In thin val
ley. It will bear (and I bellovo It
will fully Justiry) further careful In
vestigation by our progressive farm
ers. Undo Billy Angle and this paper
will bo glad to answor correspondents
who may enro to know more about It.
