29271 to 29310— Continued. 



29276 to 29302. Vigna unguiculata — Continued. 



29284. From J. W. Trinkle, Madison, Ind. Grown under temporary 

 No. 0554H. This variety is very similar to Brown Coffee, No. 17404, 

 but has much broader pods and is earlier. It is a derivative of a hybrid 

 between Black and Taylor. 



29285. From the same source as the preceding. Grown under tem- 

 porary No. 0562. This is a prolific variety with very small, globose 

 black seeds. It apparently originated as a natural hybrid between 

 Lady and Black. 



29286. Red Yellow- Hull. From the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment 

 Station, 1903. Grown under temporary No. 0590. A prolific, vigorous 

 variety. It is probably the best cowpea with maroon-colored seeds 

 grown at Arlington Experimental Farm. 



29287. Self-Seeding Clay. From the same source as the preceding. 

 Grown from temporary No. 0593. A variety with buff seeds; of rather 

 low habit. 



29288. Mountain Croicder. From the same source as No. 29286. 

 Grown under temporary No. 0594. This has buff-colored seeds and is 

 very similar to Michigan Favorite, maturing in the same time. 



29289. From Mr. W. S. O'Bier, Seaford, Del. Grown under tempo- 

 rary No. 0598. A maroon-colored cowpea of good habit and medium 

 early. 



29290. Red Sport. From the same source as No. 29286. Grown under 

 temporary No. 0604. A very distinct variety with reddish seeds. 



29291. Cotton Patch. From Mr. J. R. Register, Lamar, S. C. Grown 

 under temporary No. 0814. This variety has pinkish-buff seeds and 

 is very similar to Clay, No. 17340. It is, however, very prolific and 

 quite early. 



29292. From the Amzi Godden Seed Co., Birmingham, Ala. Grown 

 for several years under temporary No. 0897. This is an excellent 

 cowpea with black seeds. 



29293. From the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station, through 

 Prof. C. L. Newman. Grown under temporary No. 0905. This has 

 white seeds with the New Era color about the eye. It is prolific and 

 of fairly good habit. 



29294. From Mr. P. L. Sigman, Alexis, N. C. Grown under tem- 

 porary No. 0978. A very distinct cowpea with white seeds blotched 

 with red. 



29295. From Mr. A. D. McLeon, Red Springs, N. C. Grown under 

 temporary No. 01014. This is undoubtedly a hybrid between Whip- 

 poorwill and Taylor, having the combined markings of both. The 

 variety is very similar to Taylor in all respects except seed. 



29296. From Mr. J. W. Markham, Guin, Ala. Grown under temporary 

 No. 01017. This is a variety with seeds practically indistinguishable 

 from New Era, but quite different in habit. 



29297. From Mr. J. L. Forelines, Millard, Ark. Grown under tem- 

 porary No. 01361. A variety with red-and-white blotched seed, of 

 medium value.
