Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian Ryegrass, CORRESPONDENCE CONTINUED. . [Extract from New Zealand Times.} i (To the Editor "On the Land"). I S IR,—Tn yoi ? r " sue of inst '> giving an account of the Feilding Show, y«t report that Mr. A. L. Josephs, of Christchurch, pointed out that among the good work of Mr. Lowrie (late of Lincoln College) was his having duvtn attention to the wonderful merits of Sutton's Devon Eaver ryegrass ISkeK uis, .lowever, been some confusion of the two grasses—Sutton's Dov6n Bavct perennial ryegrass and Sutton's Giant Evergreen Italian ryegrass. It is Suttonii Giant Evergreen Italian ryegrass that is at Lincoln College. I spent a day witi Mr. Lowne 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 all the winter and rushes away early m the spring, and stands more feeding and is better 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 year round. ' The verdant hills of Devon are proverbial, and, being a native of that county. I made enquiries, and found that the grass lands there (that had not been ploughed m the memory of man) were composed chiefly of the Devon Eaver of Eavergrccn ryegrass (as the local people call it) and crested dogtail. It wxo4 to Messrs Sutton, and arranged with them to collect this special strain for m& and it has already got a name for itself in New Zealand. In Taranaki when there are a number of Devonshire people, it was taken up at once, and our'acenta Messrs E. Griffiths and Co., have splendid reports. In Southland also, where is well known, it is much prized for its perennial character and winter growth. lam writing this in order to prevent mistakes being made, and the con'sft I quent disappointment.—l am, etc., GEORGE TOTHTT.T, E.
