Text Appearing Before Image:
azed these spikes are eaten off and only the mats of leavesare observable; it is highly nutritious, and stock of all kinds preferit to any grass growing with it; it dries and cures on the groundso as to retain its nutritive properties in the winter. For manyyears after troops occupied Arizona and New Mexico this grasswas cut with hoes and used as hay, with roots and dirt hangingto it: the horses kept strong and fat on it. Gietta Grass.— (Figure 123.) This is one of the characteristicgrasses of the arid districts of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona,where it is sometimes erroneously called black gramma. It isfound sparingly in Colorado and Utah. It is relished by cattle andhorses, and is next to the gramma in value in those regions. Likethe gramma grass, it can only be cut with hoes, knives or scythes. Blue Stem, or Western Blue Joint.—(Figure 124.) Thisspecies prevails on the plains from Texas to ^Montana, and is wellknown to stockmen. It is generally of a light, bluish-green color.24

Figure 121. Buffalo Grass. FORAGE 3/1 It is the most prized of the native grasses, and wherever it occupiesa large area exclusively, as it frequently does, it is cut for hay.It does not yield a great bulk, but its quality is unsurpassed. Inthe valleys and along the streams it frequently forms large patches,and grows thickly and abundantly. This grass extends into themountain region, and is common in Colorado and New Mexico. Blue Joint.— (Figure 125.) This is a stout, tall grass, growingchiefly in wet, boggy ground or moist meadows ; its favorite situa-tion is in cool, elevated regions. It prevails in all the northernportions of the United States and in British America; in thesedistricts it is one of the best and most productive of the indigenousgrasses. It varies much in luxuriance of foliage, according tolocation; it grows from three to five feet high, with leaves a footlong. While not equal to some upland grasses, it gives a largeryield, makes very good hay, and is much relished b
