For^it was d. -ited to plant these germs and tlnd^out what they would do with cultivation.^Aleo, forty kinds ot grass and forage plant^seeds were imported from abroad, including^eighteen or twenty varieties from India.^These were all planted last spring oil the^eight acrea in the dry pulverized soil,^together with a do/eu species culleded^by the seed-gat Inters from tbe prui- I nes.
