Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian Ryegrass CORRESPONDENCE CONTINUED. . [Extract from New Zealand Times.] (To the Editor "On the Land"). gIR-In your issue of Oth inst., giving an account of the Feilding Show, y<* report that Mr. A. L. Josephs, of Christchurch, pointed out that amoni the good work of Mr. Lowrie (late of Lincoln College) was his having drawn attention to the wonderful merits of Sutton's Devon Eaver ryegrass. There has, Jioncver, been some confusion of the two grasses—Sutton's Devon Earei perennial ryegrass and Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian ryegrass. It Is Sutton's <.ant Evergreen Italian ryegrass that is at Lincoln College. I spent a day witk AnJ-r™* 1 !! % embe !l> and h j? the n told me what he told Mr. Joseph, and bowed 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 mere is no grass in cultivation to compare with it. It crows all the wir and rushes away early m the spring, and stands more fecdfng and is better f« vL* J Uy Si;aSS -uVt Been ,' and on 00d land win stand f « three or f years, and on river silt I have had it as many i»- *~ - --» '- - i! " ' Sutton's Devon Eaver or Devonshire Evergr as its name denotes, is green all the year round. The verdant hills of Devon are proverbial, and, lv.„« „ „„ I made enquiries, and found that the grass lands there (t ploughed in the memory of man) were composed chiefly of the Devon Enw « Eavergreen ryegrass (as the local people call it) and crested dogtail. It wrote to Messrs Sutton, and arranged with them to collect this special strain (or me, and it has already got a name, for itself in New Zealand. In Taranaki where there are a number of Devonshire people, it was taken up at once, and Messrs E. Griffiths and Co., have splendid reports. In Southland also, wheW is well known, .t is much prized for its perennial character and winter «rowth 1 am writing this in order to prevent mistakes being made, and the consa quent disappointment.-I am, etc., GEORGE TOTHILL E.
