Native Grass In Area Sprayed for Oak Brush Control

Photograph of a close-up shot of native grass in area sprayed for oak brush control. The back of the photograph proclaims, "Native grass in area sprayed for oak brush control, in 1957 and again in 1958. Large plants of little bluestem, Indiangrass, switchgrass, and big bluestem made seed in fall of 1957. Small grass plants are seedlings of above grasses. Deferred grazing has made it possible for rapid range improvement following spray jobs."
