Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian Ryegrass CORRESPONDENCE CONTINUED. . [Extract from New Zealand Times.] I (To the Editor "On the Land"). JIK ,—In your issue of Oth inst., giving an account of the Feildmg Show, yon I " report that Mr. A. L. Josephs, of Christehurch, pointed out that among , the jmod work of Mr. Lowrie (late of Lincoln ColWel wns Ma lnnfa,. a~.J?T | attention to the wonderful merits of Sutton's Devon Eaver ryegrass. There j has, however, been some confusion of the two grasses—Sutton's Devon Eaver perennial ryegrass and Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian ryegrass. It Is Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian ryegrass that is et Lincoln College. I atMSht a day with Mr. Lowrie in September, and he then told me what he told Mr; Joseph and showed me the fields. I recognised the value of Sutton's Giant, Italian 'yean ago, and have grown it regularly, and can endorse what Mr. Lowrie said that there is no grass in cultivation to compare with it. It grows ajl the winter and rushes away early in the spring, and stands more feeding and is hetter feeding than any grass I have seen, and on good land will stand for three or four years, and on river silt I have had it as many as ten years and is still good, Sutton s Devon Eaver or Devonshire Evergreen Ryegrass is a perennial and. as its name denotes, is green all the yea r round. The verdant hills of Devon are proverbial, and, being a native of thatcountv I made enquiries, and found that the grass lands there (that had not been ploughed in the memory of man) were composed chiefly of the Devon Eaver or Eavcrgrcen ryegrass (as the local people call it) and crested dogtail It wrote " to Messrs Sutton, and arranged with them to collect this special strain for me. and it has already got a name for itself in New Zealand. In Tamnaki where there are a number of Devonshire people, it was taken up at once, and our'amnta Messrs E. Griffiths and Co., have splendid reports. In Southland also, where it is well known, it is much prized for its perennial character and winter growth I am writing this in order to prevent mistakes being made, arid the consequent disappointment.—l am, etc., GEORGEJTOTHILL E.
