Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Grasses and Forage Plants, Vol. 11: Bulletin of the Agriculture Experiment Station of the University of Tennessee The Tennessee Experiment Station published, in 1892 and 1894, two bulletins on The Grasses of Tennessee, from the pen of Prof. F. damson-Scribner, at that time Botanist of the Station, now Agrostologist of the United States Department of Agriculture. Part I. of this work was a handy reference book of information as to the general character and quality of our grasses; Part II. was a handbook of the grasses of the State, with full descriptions and illustrations. The present publication is the first of a series of bulletins which will discuss the methods of cultivating and using the domesticated grasses and forage plants of Tennessee, of establishing and maintaining permanent meadows and of harvesting and using the various kinds of forage. It is designed thus to complete the former series. The Station has been fortunate in securing, to prepare this new series, the services of Col. J. B. Killebrew, A. M., Ph. D., probably the greatest authority in the South upon the culture and uses of grasses and forage plants, whose work on the grasses and forage plants of Tennessee, published in 1878, now entirely out of print, remained until the present time the best manual on the subject. The present work gives the result of twenty years´ additional study and experience in the cultivation of grasses and forage plants. The analytical engravings of grasses in this Bulletin were made by Prof. F. Lamson-Scribner. A few of the larger cuts are from Scribner´s translation of Haeckel´s "True Grasses." The half tone engravings are from Tennessee and Southern sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
