Excerpt from The Reseeding of Depleted Range and Native Pastures
There is logic in the supposition that species growing under given conditions are better adapted to those conditions than introduced species and that they will thrive better when encouraged by scat tering and by partially covering their seeds than introduced kinds until conditions are more or less changed. These changes may be brought about by the destruction of the native vegetation, by over grazing, by thorough tivation, or by any other means which inter feres with the natural order of the development of the plants. In other words when forage plants are introduced it is usually neces sary to give them special care in order that they may be able to come with native species. This applies to practically all ti yated crops. There are certain notable exceptions to this general rule in certain special natural conditions and it is these exceptions that are of especial interest.
Acting up on the suggestion that the native species are best adapted to the natural conditions in which they are found much time was spent by the State agritural experiment stations and by the Department of Agriture a few years ago in experimenting with the reseeding of native pastures with native species. Large quan tities oi: native seed were gathered and planted under various con ditions.
