grama-grass

“To many such, a meadow carpeted with blue grass or timothy is the only pasture on which grazing horses or grazing cattle can exist; the dried-out looking tufts of bunch-grass, scattered here and there or sheltered at the roots of the sage, mean nothing; the grama-grass hidden in the grease-wood is unnoticed or mistaken for a weed.”

Through the Grand Canyon from Wyoming to Mexico

“It was a dry region, but with plenty of grama-grass, and much of it covered with an open forest of pinyon and cedar.”

II. Across the Navajo Desert

“June's feet were bleeding, though she picked a way in the grama-grass and the tumbleweed to save them as much as possible.”

The Fighting Edge

“Now he was trading a pleasant old farm that didn't bring in anything for a grama-grass ranch which ought to turn over a profit of ten or twelve thousand dollars in good cattle years, and wouldn't lose much in bad ones.”

One of Ours

“South of the railroad these level immensities, rich in their season with ripe bunch-grass and grama-grass roll up to the barrier of the far blue hills of spruce and pine.”

Sundown Slim

“At the foot of the hills there is an abundance of grama-grass.”
