W« t»k# the following on the im-
«ortant subject of Bluo Grass in Tox-
u from Uw> Dallas Commercial:
On the farm of Hon. J. F. John-
Mnf in Franklin county, wo saw,
last wook, some of the bast
wo havo ever socn in any state.
Mr. Johnson has six acros sown
down in blue grass, herd grass and
clover. Tho clover is vory luxu-
riant. about throo feet high and in
full bloom. Tho herd grass is ear-
markably fine; tho blue grass is
Mirprisingly good. It is now only
the second year with it, and it t
remained green and growing from
the time it ft ret came until now
Tonessee, whose objection to lexas
has always been that it would no
produeo tho grascs, pronounces it
superior to moil of the Kentucky
and Tonnosseo meadows.
We will add to this tho testimony
of Rov. Mr. Daugherty, of this city,
who informs us that ho has blue
grass, which was sown last spring,
that promises as well ns does the
same grass in tho famed Kentucky,
lie has mown it once already and it
will yield tho socond crop.
Oneo it is assured that tho soil
and climate of Texas uro adapted to
liluo grass, and it becomes the great-
est grazing country in tho known
below It and you twf a »n«erat ** the
names and address of all the sous and
