farm south of Ennis where Tex-

first year of a six-year 180-acre
pasture development program.
Forty acres each of the two
grasses were seeded and 100
acres of coastal bermuda grass

a herbicide for weed control dur-
ing the week.

grass seeding work on the Mc-
Clain farm. Coastal bermuda was
fertilized with 50 pounds of nit-
rogen and 50 pounds of phos-
phorus to the acre. Nine pounds
of DeSoto grass, a short-lived
perennial grass sorghum, was
planted to the acre, and about
three pounds of the Ermelo was
seeded an acre.
The DeSoto was also fertilized
with a 50-50-0 per acre. The Er-
melo will be fertilized later this
year.
The DeSoto grass and Coastal
Bermuda will be providing abun-
dant grazing for McClain’s live-
stock within four to six weeks.

ers and other interested persons

well established.

forage yields and livestock car-
rying capacity will be maintain-
ed and the results made avail-
able to all interested Ellis Coun-
tians.
