Grass Becoming Important
Farm Crop in United States
Washington (U.R) Grass is
becoming as important a farm
crop as corn and cotton in the
minds of Agriculture Depart
ment officials and farmers.
A concentrated drive to im
prove the quality of America's
pasture land is in progress. The
drive is spearheaded by a steer
ing committee of 12 department
experts four in Washington
and eight in the field. Each of
the states also has some kind of
grassland management program
of its own, either at state or
county level.
The names of local programs
range from Arkansas' "Blanket
of Green," to Indiana's "Profit
from Pasture."
The aim is to put all the coun
try's almost 1,000,000,000 acres
of pasture plus marginal land
with the 10 to 15 per cent now
under "improved management."
That means fertilization, rota
tion and other attentions given
cultivated crops.
No Idle Dream
Considering that improved
fields of broomegrass, ladino
clover, alfalfa and other grasses
would have the wherewithal to
add 10,000,000 to 15,000,000 tons
Shoots From Cherry
Trees Sent Back
To Japanese Home
Washington (U.R) Offshoots
of Washington's famed Japanese
cherry trees have been sent back
to their native land to help re
vive their dying ancestral groves.
The decorative shrubs, which
line the Potomac liver and sur
round Washington's Tidal Basin,
were Dresented to the city on
March 27, 1912, as goodwill gifts
from the city of Tokyo.
Before World War II. the flow,
erine cherry trees grew abun
dantly along the Arakawa river
and around the Imperial Palace
moat in Japan. During the war.
however, beauty was sacrificed
for human sustenance as many
of the trees were cut down for
firewood and for timber to build
homes. The remaining trees were
deprived of care and soon fell
into decline.
Askl For Culling!
The Japanese Government
Overseas Agency recently asked
the United States for cuttings
from thriving trees. These would
be grafted onto the war-depleted
Tokyo groves, supplying horti
cultural nutrition to the dying
Japanese stock.
The Department of Interior
TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY
Thursday, May I. Sl
of meat to American tables, a re
mark by one Agriculture Depart
ment expert seems an under
statement: "The grasslands program be
ing pushed by the department in
cooperation with the land grant
colleges is by no means an idle
bureaucratic exercise."
Improvement in g r as s lands
which have been called Amer
ica's largest undeveloped poten
tial for increased food output, is
of specific importance now. The
country is up against the prob
lem of declining livestock feed
reserves on one hand and in
creasing livestock numbers on
the other. The amount of grain
needed for potential steaks and
roasts is much less when plenty
of good pasture and hay are
available.
Sod is the perfect soil conser
vation measure. Because our
land frontier has gone as far as
it can go, taking care of existing
land is of prime' importance.
Perhaps the greatest asset the
grassland programs advertise is
that grass can provide one of the
best means for adjusting farm
output to the country's needs.
For example, when surplus of
grain or other crops is in pros
pect, deteriorating land can be
planted to soil-holding sod crops
which would at the same time
produce meat and dairy prod
ucts. On the other hand, grass
land can be safely plowed up
when an emergency demands a
temporary Increase in cultivated
crops.
There are no special federal
funds set aside for the grassland
program but farmers may re
ceive aid under existing pro
grams agricultural conserva
tion plans to carry out pasture
improvement.
Conference May Aid
Most of the state and federal
efforts are aimed now at publi
cizing the problem until all farm
ers are aware of it. They are
counting on the Sixth Interna
tional Grassland conference here
next summer to add impetus to
their drive.
To be held at Pennsylvania
State college, it will be the first
time since the conferences began
25 years ago that international
experts will meet in this country.
All 65 countries invited to at
tend have accepted, which means
about 2,500 experts will pin
point the problem on a world
level for the seven-day meeting

The cuttings were 6 to 10 inches
