Graziers, Farmers, Shire and Municipal Councils. DO YOU KNOW THAT KIKUYU GRASS WILL SAVE OUE STOCK. SAVE OUE SHEEP. And MAKE OUE BAEEEN LANDS FEETILE. Our Seedless Kikuyu Grass is splendid for fattening Cattle. Will stand any drought or heat. Does well on poor or good soil. Sheep thrive on it. For rec! I.; . :>g sand dunes or drought-stricken country it is ideal, and worth more than i: weight in gold. Planted 6ft apart it soon covers the space between, conserves the moisture, and binds the ground. No seed for birds to carry. Nature of Growth. Kikuyu grass is a perennial, and spreads rapidly over the ground by means of running stems or stolons, which carry a large quantity of leafy material, thus providing a very bulky mass of fodder. The grass grows very rapidly, and the stolons send out roots from every node or joint, thus anchoring the plant firmly in the ground, and at the same time forming a dense turf, which will stand the tramping of heavy stock well. This turf-forming habit is one of the most important factors to be considered when selecting grasses for permanent pasture. Tussocky grasses, do not cover the ground well, leaving bare patches which later on become smothered with weeds. If not allowed to seed periodically, tussocky grasses become tramped and eaten out more rapidly than turf formers. In one of the coldest portions of the State the grass was cut back by frost, but it lived through th? winter and came away well the following spring. As regards drought resistance, the Department of Agriculture in South Africa states that "for drought resistance kikuyu grass is great, and has no rival. When the surrounding veldt is dry and withered, the kikuyu remains green, giving one the impression of an irrigated field of forage. All kinds of s ock are extremely fond of it, and prefer it to other grasses. The food value is high and superior to our other grasses.” Mr Edward McGrath, Ocean View, Pambula: ‘‘The roots were planted in August, 1920. on rich black soil; the grass made good growth, and in Febniary, 1921, rhe plants had spread 8 feet from the centre, and were 3 feet 7 inches high. A few roots were planted in poor soil, and made fairly good growth, the plants being 5 feet 4 inches in length from the centre, and about 1 foot 8 inches high. This is the best grass I have ever seen, and the hot, dry weather never affected it. I would like to plant 10 acres of it, if I could obtain the material with which to do so.” When to Plant. Planting in the coastal districts may be carried out in the early autumn, or in the spring and summer months—for preference, the spring. In districts where severe frosts and cold conditions are experienced, spring and early summer plan’-rigs are recommended. A limited number of plants for present planting.
